Task Response

The report addresses the task by describing the main trends in the three sectors over the period. However, there are several inaccuracies in the data (e.g., agriculture at 60% instead of 62%, services at 17% instead of 19%, and the final values for agriculture and services are incorrect). The overall trend is captured, but the specific figures are often misreported, which detracts from the accuracy. To improve, ensure that all data points are correctly transcribed from the chart and that the description of trends is precise. Additionally, avoid vague statements like 'industry did not show the increase' and instead provide clear, specific observations. The structure is logical, but the language could be more precise and formal.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs, but the flow is disrupted by awkward phrasing and unclear references. The overview is somewhat confusing and does not accurately summarize the main trends. Cohesive devices are used sparingly and sometimes inappropriately, making the message harder to follow. To improve, ensure each paragraph has a clear central idea and use linking words and referencing more effectively to guide the reader.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is limited and repetitive, with some inappropriate word choices (e.g., 'contribute sections', 'gross domestic productions', 'as larger contribute'). There is an attempt to use a range of expressions, but they are often inaccurate or unnatural. To improve, expand your range of topic-specific vocabulary and use precise terms (e.g., 'contribution', 'share', 'percentage', 'trend', 'increase', 'decline'). Also, avoid informal or incorrect phrases and ensure collocations are used correctly.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors, including subject-verb agreement ('Services was gradually increase'), incorrect verb forms ('was gradually decrease', 'was gradually rose'), and missing articles/prepositions. Sentence structures are mostly simple and repetitive, with limited use of complex forms. Punctuation is generally correct, but the errors significantly affect clarity. To improve, focus on using a variety of sentence structures accurately, and review basic grammar rules such as verb tenses, subject-verb agreement, and the use of articles.
