Task Response

The report addresses the task by summarizing the main trends in the charts and covering the key reasons for participation. However, there are some inaccuracies and omissions: the chart is described as a 'line graph' instead of a bar chart, and some data points are misreported (e.g., 'never' for 24-26 is given as ~35% instead of ~21%, and 'once or twice per week' for 18-20 is stated as 40% instead of ~24%). The report also does not suggest ways to keep young people interested in sport, which is a key requirement of the task. To improve, ensure the correct chart types are identified, verify data accuracy, and include practical suggestions for maintaining interest.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a logical structure with an introduction, overview, and detailed paragraphs, but the flow is disrupted by unclear referencing and awkward phrasing. For example, 'doing several times per week it is the more popular' and 'that frequency with approximately 30%' are confusing. The use of cohesive devices is limited and sometimes inaccurate, making the message harder to follow. To improve, use clearer referencing (e.g., 'this frequency' or 'this reason') and ensure each paragraph has a clear central idea with smooth transitions between sentences.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for the task but lacks range and precision. There are some inappropriate word choices, such as 'diagrams demonstrate' (should be 'diagrams show') and 'took showed' (redundant). The report also uses informal or incorrect phrases like 'the most widespread reason' (better: 'the most common reason') and 'middle results' (better: 'moderate percentages'). To improve, use a wider range of precise vocabulary (e.g., 'notably', 'in contrast', 'approximately') and avoid repetition. Also, ensure correct collocations (e.g., 'accounted for' instead of 'represented').

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors that affect clarity, including subject-verb agreement ('the frequency of never are growing'), incorrect verb forms ('doing several times per week'), and missing articles ('the more popular' should be 'the most popular'). There are also punctuation issues, such as missing commas and incorrect capitalization. The range of sentence structures is limited, with many simple sentences and some fragments. To improve, focus on using a variety of complex structures (e.g., relative clauses, conditionals) and proofread for common errors. Practice using correct verb tenses and ensuring subject-verb agreement.
