Task Response

The report addresses the main requirements of the task by identifying the key trends and providing data for all four countries across the four indicators. However, there is a significant inaccuracy regarding the country names: the report refers to 'Zaire' instead of 'Angola' as provided in the visual description. While the data comparison is generally clear, the grammatical structure is occasionally weak, particularly in the overview and the sentence regarding life expectancy, which lacks a main verb. To improve, ensure all proper nouns are accurate and focus on using complete, cohesive sentence structures to link your observations.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a logical structure by grouping indicators, but the progression is hindered by several sentence fragments and awkward transitions. For instance, the paragraph regarding life expectancy lacks a main verb, making it difficult to follow the flow of information. To improve, ensure that every sentence is a complete thought with a subject and a verb. Use more sophisticated cohesive devices (e.g., 'In stark contrast,' 'Regarding life expectancy,') to link ideas more smoothly rather than relying on simple additive transitions like 'In addition'.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is functional but repetitive and occasionally inaccurate in its application. There are attempts to use comparative language, but some phrasing is unnatural (e.g., 'was the latter on the table' or 'there were fewer indicator'). To reach a higher band, aim for a wider range of academic synonyms for 'show' (e.g., 'depict', 'present') and 'high/low' (e.g., 'substantial', 'negligible', 'minimal'). Ensure that nouns and adjectives are used in their correct forms (e.g., 'fewer indicators' instead of 'fewer indicator').

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical accuracy is a significant area for improvement. The report contains several sentence fragments (sentences without a verb), particularly in the life expectancy and literacy rate sections. There are also issues with subject-verb agreement and sentence construction (e.g., 'Canada and Japan clearly evident that...'). To improve, focus on mastering complex sentence structures and ensuring that every sentence contains a clear subject and a finite verb. Pay close attention to punctuation to avoid run-on sentences or incomplete thoughts.
