The image shows an island "Before" and "After" development; "Before" section reveals minimal landmarks—several palm trees in the northeast and southwest near the beach and sea—all indicated within a 100-metre scale; "After" section indicates new features: restaurant, reception, pier, accommodations, connecting footpaths (dotted lines), and vehicle tracks (solid lines), all within a similar 100-metre scale; jetty is added south of the island, extending into the sea; various accommodations (hut-like structures) uniformly spread across the island; mentioned landmarks like swimming facility and centralized beach located on the northern coast.

Given the complexity of the image, the above description may not be entirely accurate.

The two provided layouts show the changes that have been made to the construction of an island and the addition of new tourist facilities. In these two maps, there are common features such as palm trees and the beach.

Overall, after analyzing the given maps, what can be witnessed is that there has been major development achieved on the island through the construction of accommodations and a restaurant. These facilities will attract more tourists to the island.

Initially, before the development, the island was almost natural and uninhabited, because it only had a number of palm trees and a beach that was located on the western side. There were no roads, facilities, or swimming areas.

Later on, after the development, there are many modifications that have been done to the island. To begin with, a restaurant has been constructed on the northern side and a reception was also built in front of it. Another major change is the building of many accommodation places and a pier which is located at the southern part of the island. One last modification is the paving of the beach, which makes visitors able to swim in this area.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by highlighting the key transformations from a natural state to a developed tourist destination. The overview is clear, and the comparison between the 'before' and 'after' states is logical. To improve, the report could benefit from more precise descriptions of the spatial relationships between new features, such as the connection between the pier and the reception via footpaths or vehicle tracks. Additionally, ensuring a more consistent use of tense (moving from past to present) would enhance the overall flow.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is logically organized, moving from an introduction to an overview, and then into detailed comparisons of the 'before' and 'after' states. The use of cohesive devices such as 'Initially', 'Later on', and 'To begin with' helps guide the reader through the timeline. To improve, try to use more sophisticated linking words and avoid repetitive sentence structures. For instance, instead of starting multiple sentences with 'There were' or 'A [facility] was', try integrating the features into more complex comparative sentences.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate for the task, with terms like 'uninhabited', 'modifications', and 'construction' being used correctly. However, the lexical range is somewhat limited. To reach a higher band, aim to use more varied synonyms for 'construction' (e.g., 'erection', 'installation', 'establishment') and 'changes' (e.g., 'transformations', 'remodelling', 'alterations'). Additionally, ensure that the descriptions of locations are more precise (e.g., using compass directions more effectively).

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good mix of simple and complex sentence structures. The use of the passive voice ('has been constructed', 'was also built') is appropriate for describing changes in a map. There are some minor issues with tense consistency and phrasing (e.g., 'changes that have been made to the construction of an island' is slightly awkward). Focus on maintaining a consistent tense when describing the 'after' state and ensure that prepositional phrases are used accurately to describe spatial relationships.
