The table gives information about the number of people in two different age categories who participated in the marathon between 2008 and 2012.

Overall, there was a steady increase in both age groups. The lowest figure was recorded in the initial year of the period in the second category, while the highest one was at the end of the period in the first category.

The number of the participants between the age of 18 and 39 started the marathon at 1,200 people compared to those over 40, accounted for 800 participants which was the lowest figure over the given period, and the total participants were 2,000 people in 2008. A slight change was seen in the next year, in the second age group (from 800 to 850), while the proportion of 18-39-year-olds increased by 150. There was a rise by 200 in the total number of participating by 2009. The number of marathon participants saw a considerable growth from 1,350 to 1,500, the quantity of those aged over 40, grew to 900 over a year. As for the whole participants, this figure accounted for 2,400 in 2010. The number of participants coming from young and old age categories was opposite to each other (1,600 and 950, respectively) in 2011. When it comes to the entire proportion of participants in the very year, these figures equaled to 2,550. Having risen significantly from 1,600 to a peak of 1,750 in the first category, the number of old participants saw a rise by 100. Regarding the total participants, this figure accounted for 2,800 in the final year of the given period.

Task Response

The report appropriately addresses the task by describing the main trends and providing specific data for each year. The overall structure is clear, with an introduction, an overview, and detailed paragraphs. However, there are some minor lapses in clarity and precision, such as awkward phrasing ('the proportion of 18-39-year-olds increased by 150' could be clearer) and a few grammatical issues (e.g., 'compared to those over 40, accounted for 800 participants' should be 'compared to those over 40, who accounted for 800 participants'). Additionally, the overview could be more concise and better highlight the key trends. Overall, the response covers the requirements well, but some improvements in language accuracy and clarity would enhance the report.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is generally well-organized with a clear introduction and overview. However, the body paragraphs could be more logically structured, as the data is presented in a somewhat chronological narrative rather than grouped by trends or categories. The use of cohesive devices is adequate, but some transitions (e.g., 'As for the whole participants', 'When it comes to the entire proportion') feel slightly awkward and could be smoother. To improve, consider grouping the data by age group or by year in a more systematic way, and use a wider range of linking phrases to enhance the flow.

Lexical Resource

The report uses a good range of vocabulary related to trends and data description (e.g., 'steady increase', 'considerable growth', 'accounted for', 'peak'). However, there are some instances of awkward phrasing and repetition (e.g., 'the number of the participants', 'the quantity of those aged over 40', 'the entire proportion of participants'). To achieve a higher score, aim for more precise and varied lexical choices, and avoid overusing similar expressions. For example, use synonyms like 'figure', 'statistic', 'count', and vary the verbs used to describe changes (e.g., 'rose', 'climbed', 'surged'). Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good range of grammatical structures, including complex sentences and some use of participial phrases (e.g., 'Having risen significantly...'). However, there are a few grammatical errors and awkward phrasings that affect clarity, such as 'the number of the participants between the age of 18 and 39 started the marathon at 1,200 people' (should be 'began at' or 'was'), 'compared to those over 40, accounted for 800 participants' (missing 'who'), and 'the number of old participants saw a rise by 100' (should be 'rose by 100'). To improve, proofread for subject-verb agreement and ensure that relative clauses are correctly formed. Also, vary sentence structures to avoid repetitive patterns.
