Task Response

The report addresses the main requirements of the task by identifying trends and providing data to support the descriptions. It successfully highlights the overall increase in total participation and categorizes the sports into those that increased and those that decreased. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data interpretation; for example, the report states that yoga saw an increase, whereas the visual description indicates it remained constant. Additionally, the overview contains some contradictions (stating yoga illustrated the highest increase while later describing it as part of a growth trend). To improve, ensure that all trends are accurately reflected from the data and refine the grouping of information to ensure logical consistency throughout the report.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a basic structure, but the progression of ideas is sometimes interrupted by awkward phrasing. While you attempt to group information (increasing trends vs. decreasing trends), the transitions between sentences are not always smooth. To improve, use a wider variety of cohesive devices (e.g., 'In contrast,' 'Conversely,' 'Regarding...') and ensure that each paragraph has a clear, logical focus. Avoid starting sentences with 'To begin with' if the subsequent information does not follow a logical sequence.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is somewhat limited and repetitive. There are several errors in word choice and formation (e.g., 'the most part of sports activity,' 'reached growth 3 million,' 'this three trends'). You should aim to use more precise academic collocations, such as 'experienced a significant rise' or 'witnessed a downward trend.' Be careful with the use of 'trends' to describe individual sports; a 'trend' refers to the direction of change over time, whereas 'sport' refers to the activity itself.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are frequent and occasionally impede the reader's understanding. There are issues with subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'yoga illustrats'), article usage (e.g., 'the running'), and sentence structure (e.g., 'which has seen, lose about...'). To improve, focus on mastering complex sentence structures and ensuring that your verb tenses are consistent. Practice using relative clauses correctly to combine ideas and ensure that your noun-number agreement (singular vs. plural) is accurate.
