The pie charts show the devices people in the 18 to 25 age group use to watch television in Canada in two different years, 2000 and 2020.

Overall, it is clear that conventional TV decreased very much over the period, while flat-screen TV and mobile phone became more popular. Also, we can see that tablets increased a lot too.

In 2009, conventional TV was the most popular device with 34%. Laptop was 20% and desktop computer was 18%. Mobile phone was 15% and flat-screen TV was only 8%. Tablet was the lowest with only 5%.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by providing a clear overview and a detailed comparison of the data between the two years. The trends are accurately identified, and the structure is logical, moving from a general overview to specific details. To improve, ensure that the introductory paragraph accurately reflects the years provided in the visual data (the report mentions 2000 and 2020, whereas the data refers to 2009 and 2019), although the data analysis itself is consistent with the provided description. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is organized into logical paragraphs, with a clear introduction, overview, and two body paragraphs comparing the two years. However, the progression is somewhat mechanical. To improve, try to use more sophisticated cohesive devices and transition signals to link ideas within and between sentences, rather than relying on simple structures like 'In contrast' or 'Also'. The flow would benefit from more complex sentence structures that integrate comparisons directly.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate for the task and accurately conveys the changes (e.g., 'decreased very much', 'increased significantly', 'dropped'). However, the range is somewhat limited and repetitive. To reach a higher band, aim to use a wider variety of synonyms for change (e.g., 'plummeted', 'surged', 'witnessed a substantial rise') and more academic phrasing to describe proportions and trends. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a mix of simple and some compound sentences. While the meaning is clear, the grammatical structures are quite basic. There is a tendency to use repetitive 'Subject + Verb + Percentage' patterns (e.g., 'Laptop was 20%', 'Mobile phone was 15%'). To improve, practice using more complex structures such as relative clauses, participial phrases, and varied sentence openings to demonstrate greater control over English grammar.
