Task Response

The report addresses the task by describing the table and making some comparisons, but it contains significant inaccuracies and omissions. The data presented does not match the given figures (e.g., total spending for France is stated as 11.4% instead of 30%, and for the USA as 8.6% instead of 40%). The overall trend is mentioned, but the details are largely incorrect, which detracts from task achievement. To improve, ensure that all figures are accurately reported from the visual information, and focus on summarizing the main features clearly. Also, avoid introducing irrelevant or incorrect data. Structure the report with a clear overview and then group countries logically, making precise comparisons. Aim for clarity and accuracy in presenting the data.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a logical structure with an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs. However, the flow is disrupted by unclear referencing and some abrupt transitions. For example, the second paragraph introduces specific figures without clear connection to the overview, and the third paragraph shifts focus without a clear link. To improve, ensure each paragraph has a clear central idea and use cohesive devices to link sentences and paragraphs smoothly. Also, avoid introducing new data in the overview; instead, summarize the main trends.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not always precise or varied. Some phrases like 'made up for' and 'contributed to wellness' are awkward or inaccurate. Use more precise terms such as 'accounted for' or 'represented'. Additionally, vary the language used to describe percentages and comparisons (e.g., 'higher than', 'nearly double', 'slightly above'). Avoid repetition of 'spending' and 'public/private' by using synonyms like 'expenditure', 'government funding', 'private sector'. This will enhance lexical range. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a reasonable range of structures, but there are several grammatical errors and punctuation issues that affect clarity. For example, '11,4%' should be '11.4%' (use decimal point), and 'which was 0.5% higher than that figure for Japan' is awkward. Also, there are missing commas and incorrect verb forms (e.g., 'was contributed' should be 'was contributed' or 'contributed'). To improve, proofread carefully for subject-verb agreement, article usage, and punctuation. Use a variety of complex sentences, but ensure they are grammatically correct.
