Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by presenting the main features and making comparisons. The overall trend is clearly identified, and the data for each country is reported. However, there are a few inaccuracies in the data (e.g., Italy's men's age and Korea's men's age) and some minor omissions (e.g., not explicitly comparing all countries). To improve, ensure all figures are accurately transcribed and consider grouping countries with similar patterns to enhance clarity and coherence.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-organized with a clear overall structure, including an introduction, an overview, and body paragraphs that group countries logically. The use of linking words and phrases (e.g., 'In contrast', 'Compared with', 'However') helps the reader follow the comparisons. To achieve a perfect score, ensure that the flow between sentences is even smoother and that paragraphing is consistently balanced. For instance, the second body paragraph could be split into two for better clarity, and the final sentence could be more clearly linked to the overview.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate and varied, with good use of synonyms and paraphrasing (e.g., 'retirement age', 'average age', 'stood at'). The report demonstrates a good range of lexical items and avoids repetition. To reach a band 9, consider using more sophisticated and precise vocabulary, such as 'notably', 'whereas', 'in contrast to', and 'the highest/lowest figures'. Additionally, ensure that all terms are used accurately, e.g., 'the age for retirement' could be phrased as 'the retirement age' for conciseness. Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is largely accurate, with a good mix of simple and complex sentence structures. The report uses a range of tenses appropriately (past tense for the data) and includes comparative structures. There are no significant errors, and punctuation is used correctly. To achieve a band 9, aim for even greater grammatical flexibility, such as using more complex clauses (e.g., 'While Japan had a higher retirement age than Australia and the US, ...') and ensuring that all sentences are perfectly controlled. The report is already very strong, so only minor refinements are needed.
