Task Response

The report identifies some key trends in the data, but there are inaccuracies and a lack of specific detail. To improve, focus on providing precise data points and avoid vague language. Also, ensure that all calculations are accurate and that you're comparing the correct figures. The report could also benefit from a clearer overall structure, perhaps with an introductory overview and a concluding summary. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report presents a general overview of the data but lacks a clear structure and logical flow. The connections between sentences and ideas could be strengthened to improve coherence. For instance, the relationship between the decrease in car usage and the popularity of public transport needs clearer articulation. Consider using transition words and phrases to guide the reader through the analysis.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is adequate but could be more precise and varied. For example, instead of saying 'planty changes,' you could use 'significant changes' or 'notable differences.' Similarly, 'become less useful' could be replaced with 'decreased in popularity' or 'experienced a decline in usage.' Expanding your range of vocabulary will enhance the clarity and sophistication of your writing. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. For example, 'cummuting' should be 'commuting,' and 'since 2000 to 2022' should be 'from 2000 to 2020.' Additionally, the sentence 'People who drive a car began using it less in 2020 than 20 years ago due to the public transport popularity' could be rephrased for better clarity and grammatical correctness. Focus on improving your accuracy in grammar and sentence structure to enhance the overall quality of your writing.
