Task Response

The report attempts to address the task but contains significant inaccuracies and omissions. It misinterprets the data (e.g., 'job hunting' is not mentioned in the visual description, and percentages for shopping and gardening are incorrect). The report also fails to provide a clear overview of the main trends and makes limited comparisons. To improve, focus on accurately summarizing the key features, such as the most common activities for each gender and time of day, and ensure all data cited is correct. Additionally, organize the information more clearly, perhaps by comparing morning and afternoon patterns for men and women.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction and a body, but the flow is disrupted by abrupt transitions and a lack of logical grouping of information. The use of cohesive devices is limited and sometimes inaccurate (e.g., 'furthermore' and 'also' are used without clear logical connection). The report would benefit from a more systematic comparison of morning and afternoon activities for both genders, and from using a range of linking words and phrases to guide the reader smoothly through the data.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is adequate for the task, but it is limited in range and lacks precision. There are some awkward and inaccurate phrases, such as 'how much unemployment spent their time' and 'spent their time on various things'. The report would benefit from a wider variety of vocabulary to describe trends and comparisons (e.g., 'devoted', 'allocated', 'whereas', 'in contrast'), and from more precise terms for the activities (e.g., 'household chores', 'leisure activities'). Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors and punctuation issues that affect clarity and accuracy. There are subject-verb agreement errors (e.g., 'how much unemployment spent'), incorrect verb forms (e.g., 'spent their time on various things'), and missing articles. Punctuation is often incorrect, with missing capital letters and commas. The range of grammatical structures is limited, with a heavy reliance on simple sentences. To improve, the writer should focus on sentence structure variety, accurate verb tenses, and proper punctuation.
