Butter starts at 140g in 1981, drops to around 70g in 1986, maintains approximately 50g in 1991, then falls gradually to 50g in 2007. Low fat & reduced spreads appear in 1996 at 10g, peaks at around 80g shortly after, and decreases to 70g by 2007.

The line graph illustrates the consumption of three types of spreads namely margarine, low fats and reduced spreads and butter between the years 1981 and 2007.

Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that the popularity of margrine and butter decreased as their consumption of fell, while the demand for low fats and reduced spreads increased.

With regard to the quantity of butter consumed,it was about 140 in the first year and rose to about 60 grams before drastically falling to around 50 grams in the last. Likewise, Margarine began with around 80, but saw some fluctuations until 1968 before falling sharply to about 65 in 2007.

Regarding the Low fat & reduced spread, it was not popular initially with its intake of just about 20 grams. This was followed by a significant rise by almost five times in 2001, before experiencing a decline to around 40 grams in 2007.

Task Response

The report addresses the task by describing the main trends in the consumption of spreads. However, there are several inaccuracies in the data (e.g., butter starting at 140g and rising to 60g, margarine starting at 80g and falling to 65g, low fat spreads starting at 20g and ending at 40g) that detract from the task achievement. The overall structure is clear, with an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs, but the overview could be more precise. To improve, ensure data figures are accurate and avoid vague statements like 'some fluctuations' without specific details. Also, correct minor grammatical errors (e.g., 'margrine', 'consumption of fell') and improve cohesion between sentences.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction, an overview, and separate paragraphs for the different spreads. However, the flow is sometimes disrupted by awkward phrasing and unclear references (e.g., 'the consumption of fell', 'it was about 140 in the first year and rose to about 60 grams before drastically falling to around 50 grams in the last' - the sequence is confusing). The use of cohesive devices is limited, and the progression of ideas could be smoother. To improve, ensure each paragraph has a clear topic sentence and that the sequence of data is presented logically, using a range of linking words and referencing accurately.

Lexical Resource

The report uses some appropriate vocabulary for describing trends (e.g., 'fluctuations', 'falling sharply', 'significant rise', 'decline'). However, there are instances of imprecise word choice and repetition (e.g., 'fell', 'falling', 'decline' are used repeatedly). The phrase 'low fats and reduced spreads' is not as precise as 'low fat and reduced spreads'. To achieve a higher score, aim for a wider range of synonyms and more precise terms (e.g., 'experienced a gradual decrease', 'witnessed a steady growth'), and avoid informal or inaccurate expressions.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors and awkward structures that affect clarity. For example, 'the consumption of fell' is incorrect, and 'it was about 140 in the first year and rose to about 60 grams' is confusing because the verb 'rose' is inappropriate for a decrease. There are also issues with subject-verb agreement and article usage (e.g., 'the low fat & reduced spread' should be 'the low fat and reduced spreads'). The range of sentence structures is limited, with many simple sentences. To improve, focus on using a variety of complex structures, ensure subject-verb agreement, and proofread to eliminate basic errors.
