Dear Zohirshoh,

I’m just writing to let you know that I left my sweater at your house.

I’ll describe it so you can find it easily. The sweater is black and has two white lines from shoulder to hand. The front side of this is red and Loro Piana is written on the front in black. It was made from 100% cotton.

I don’t really remember where I left it, but I think when we entered your room to play computer the room was too hot so I took it off and I put it on windowsill or I forgot it in wardrobe.

If you find it, please put it in your wardrobe and don’t touch it anymore because it’s really expensive. As soon as you took it away just tell me and I’ll come to pick it up.

All the best,

Sanjarbek

Task Response

The letter appropriately addresses all parts of the task, providing a description of the item, explaining where it might have been left, and stating what the writer wants the friend to do with it. The information is relevant and sufficient. To improve, consider adding a more specific detail or two to further enhance the description and clarity. The letter falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is generally well-organized and the message is clear. The paragraphing is mostly effective, but could be improved by more clearly separating the description of the item, the explanation of where it was left, and the request for action. Consider using more cohesive devices to link ideas within paragraphs for smoother transitions.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for the task, with some descriptive language used to describe the sweater. To enhance the lexical resource, try incorporating more varied and precise vocabulary related to clothing and locations within a house. For example, instead of 'put it in your wardrobe,' you could say 'store it in your closet.' Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter contains a number of grammatical errors. For example, '...computer the room was too hot so I took it off and I put it on windowsill or I forgot it in wardrobe' could be improved for clarity and accuracy. Focus on using correct tense agreement, prepositions, and sentence structure. Proofreading carefully for these errors will improve the overall impression.
