Task Response

The report covers the requirements of the task and provides a clear overview of the main trends. It effectively identifies the shifts in dominance between Kolkata and Bangalore. However, there are some inaccuracies in data reporting compared to the provided description (specifically regarding the figures for Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Chennai in 2010). To improve, ensure that the specific values mentioned in the body paragraphs align strictly with the data provided, and aim for higher precision when describing trends and comparisons.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is logically organized with a clear introduction, overview, and detailed body paragraphs. The use of cohesive devices like 'Meanwhile', 'however', and 'By 2010' helps guide the reader. However, there are some minor issues with sentence structure and punctuation (such as comma splices) that slightly disrupt the flow. To improve, ensure that transitions between sentences are smoother and that complex sentences are punctuated correctly to avoid run-on effects.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate for the task, with successful attempts at varying language (e.g., 'accounted for', 'recorded', 'experienced a decline'). There is a good range of terms to describe trends. To reach a higher band, aim for more sophisticated collocations and avoid repetitive phrasing. For instance, instead of saying 'experienced an increased', use 'experienced an increase' or 'saw an upward trend'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a mix of simple and complex sentence structures. However, there are several grammatical inaccuracies that affect the precision of the writing. Examples include the incorrect use of parts of speech (e.g., 'experienced a declined' instead of 'a decline' or 'declined', and 'experienced an increased' instead of 'an increase') and issues with subject-verb agreement or article usage. Focusing on noun/verb forms and ensuring grammatical accuracy in comparative structures will significantly improve this score.
