Next, it is dried up for 24 to 48 hours in oven and then paseed to the moderate temprature from 200’C to 960′. Similarly it is passedto the next high temprature klin 800’C to 1300’C and become very stronger.

Task Response

The report adequately covers the brick manufacturing process, hitting the key stages and providing a general overview. The description of each stage is understandable. To improve, focus on enhancing the precision of details and refining sentence structures for clarity. Also, ensure consistent temperature values and pay attention to spelling.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report presents the information in a generally logical sequence, following the stages of the brick manufacturing process. However, the writing lacks clear paragraphing and transitions between stages, making it somewhat difficult to follow effortlessly. The introduction and overview are present but could be more concise and impactful. To improve coherence, focus on using cohesive devices (e.g., conjunctions, pronouns, synonyms) to link ideas within and between paragraphs. Consider breaking the process description into multiple paragraphs, each focusing on a distinct phase (e.g., raw material preparation, shaping, firing, cooling, and delivery).

Lexical Resource

The report uses a limited range of vocabulary, with some inaccuracies and awkward phrasing. For example, 'making porcess,' 'diged up,' and 'paseed to' could be improved. To enhance lexical resource, try to use more precise and varied vocabulary related to manufacturing processes. Consider using synonyms for common words like 'process,' 'stage,' and 'temperature.' Also, pay attention to collocations (e.g., 'high temperature kiln' instead of 'high temprature klin').

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors, including incorrect verb tenses ('illustarte,' 'is begin,' 'diged up,' 'paseed'), subject-verb agreement issues, and errors in punctuation and spelling. These errors significantly affect the clarity and accuracy of the report. To improve grammatical range and accuracy, focus on using a wider range of sentence structures and verb tenses correctly. Proofread carefully for errors in grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Consider using online grammar checkers or seeking feedback from a language tutor to identify and correct recurring errors.
