Task Response

7
The letter appropriately covers all requirements of the task, providing relevant details about the party's date, time, and location, as well as specific requests for Anita's contribution and instructions on maintaining secrecy. There are a few minor areas for improvement, such as elaborating slightly more on the types of snacks and drinks needed or providing a specific list of cousins to invite. Overall, the letter is well-written and effectively communicates the necessary information.

Coherence & Cohesion

5
The letter is generally coherent, but the organization could be improved. Consider grouping related ideas together more clearly. For example, keep all requests for Anita's help in one paragraph. Also, ensure smooth transitions between ideas to enhance readability.

Lexical Resource

5
The vocabulary is adequate for the task, but there's room for improvement. Try to use more varied and precise language. For instance, instead of repeatedly using 'help,' consider synonyms like 'assistance,' 'contribution,' or 'support.' Also, 'closed friend' could be rephrased as 'close friend'. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

4
The letter contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement, correct tense usage, and proper punctuation. For example, 'jessica's best friend' should be 'Jessica's best friend,' and 'i want to plan' should be 'I want to plan'. Proofread carefully to catch these errors.
