Before construction, from west to east: forest, a winding river with a historic castle at its bank, a national park below the river, mountains adjacent to the river, and farmland, all above a village. After construction, the forest remains, the river has transformed into a lake, the national park location is now occupied by a hydroelectric power plant with transmission towers, the mountains are unchanged, the farmland is replaced by a dam, and a hotel appears next to the previous village location.

Overall, before the changes in the first map we had buildings which revised from nature environment to technology, as power plant, transmission towers, and hydroelectic Dam. Nevertheless, the changes are less and are not reconstructed all surrounding houses like village.

The development of the hydroelectric power plant was noticable. In the middle of the map before had river which now was changed to lake with Hydroelectric Dam, in the west were national park and historic castle, but now in there power plant and transmission towers. Moreover, in the east the farmland had transformered to hotel. Counting these adapted places, the forest and mointain are not touched or included new cottages.

In summarise, the background haven’t revised to harmful plan, only by enhance nature with technology. However, historical castle was changed to towers, which are not necessary for any living beings.

Task Response

The report addresses the task, but there are noticeable areas for improvement. The organization is present but could be clearer with more distinct paragraphing. The language contains inaccuracies and awkward phrasing, affecting clarity. The report includes relevant information but could benefit from more specific details and comparisons. To improve, focus on using more precise language, structuring the report with clear topic sentences, and providing more detailed descriptions of the changes.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report's organization is somewhat unclear, and the flow of information is disrupted by grammatical errors and awkward phrasing. Paragraphing is present but could be used more effectively to group related ideas. To improve coherence, use clearer transitions between sentences and paragraphs, and ensure that each paragraph focuses on a single main idea. For example, the contrast between the natural environment and the technological additions could be more explicitly stated and consistently maintained throughout the report.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is basic and lacks precision. There are instances of inappropriate word choice (e.g., "revised from nature environment to technology"). To enhance lexical resource, try to use more specific and varied vocabulary related to geographical features, construction, and environmental impact. For example, instead of 'changed,' consider using words like 'transformed,' 'converted,' or 'altered,' depending on the context. Also, avoid overly simplistic descriptions; aim for more nuanced and descriptive language.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors, including incorrect verb tenses, subject-verb agreement issues, and awkward sentence structures. These errors significantly impede understanding. For example, "buildings which revised from nature environment to technology" is grammatically incorrect and unclear. To improve grammatical accuracy, focus on mastering basic grammar rules and sentence structures. Proofread carefully for errors in verb tense, subject-verb agreement, and word order. Consider seeking feedback from a language tutor or using grammar-checking tools to identify and correct errors.
