Task Response

The report addresses the task, but there are some inaccuracies and a lack of detail. The description of the trends is quite general and could be more specific. For example, instead of saying 'the number of tourists from Japan rose gradually except for 1991,' you could mention the specific years where significant increases occurred and provide data points. Similarly, the description of Australia's share could be more precise. The language is simple and there are some grammatical errors. To improve, focus on providing more specific data and using more varied language. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a discernible structure with an introduction, overview, and specific details. However, the connection between sentences could be improved for smoother reading. Consider using a wider range of cohesive devices to link ideas more effectively. Paragraphing is generally adequate, but ensure each paragraph focuses on a single main idea.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is generally appropriate, but there's room for improvement in terms of variety and precision. For instance, instead of repeatedly using 'increased,' try synonyms like 'grew,' 'rose,' or 'expanded.' Aim to use more specific and descriptive language to convey the information more accurately.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a basic understanding of grammar, but there are noticeable errors that affect clarity. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement, correct tense usage, and accurate preposition usage. Review and correct grammatical errors to enhance the overall quality of your writing.
