Task Response

The report effectively summarizes the main features of the table, correctly identifying overall trends and making relevant comparisons. The structure is clear, with a good overview followed by detailed analysis. Minor inaccuracies, such as describing the period as 'over five years' instead of five years apart, and a slight misstatement about 'digital devices' in the context of TVs, do not detract significantly from the overall quality. To improve, ensure precise language regarding time frames and avoid vague terms like 'digital devices' when referring to all electronic goods.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-structured and easy to follow. The overall trend is clearly presented in the first paragraph, and the detailed data is logically grouped in subsequent paragraphs. The use of cohesive devices like 'Overall', 'In detail', and 'By contrast' effectively guides the reader. Minor lapses, such as the slightly awkward phrasing 'the proportion of families which had' and 'the percentage of household with', do not significantly impede understanding. To achieve a perfect score, ensure that all transitions are seamless and that the paragraphing is consistently skilful.

Lexical Resource

The report demonstrates a good range of vocabulary with appropriate and accurate usage. Words like 'proportion', 'magnitude', 'upward pattern', 'constituted', 'climbed substantially', and 'levelled off' show a strong lexical resource. There is a minor error in the phrase 'downward patter' (should be 'pattern'), but this does not detract from the overall quality. To reach a band 9, aim for even more sophisticated and natural collocations, and ensure complete accuracy in word forms. Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a variety of grammatical structures, including complex sentences with relative clauses and subordinate clauses. For example, 'the proportion of families which had digital cameras...' and 'while this figure rose significantly to 39%'. Punctuation is generally correct. There are a few minor errors, such as 'downward patter' (missing 'n') and 'the percentage of household with' (should be 'households'). These are infrequent and do not hinder communication. To achieve a band 9, ensure flawless grammar and punctuation throughout, and incorporate an even wider range of sentence structures with full flexibility.
