Task Response

The report addresses the main requirements of the task by providing an overview and describing the data for the different age groups. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data reporting; for example, the percentage increase for the 65+ group was stated as 0.4% instead of 4.0%, and the description of the 40-64 group was somewhat unclear. To improve, ensure that all numerical data and percentages are transcribed accurately from the table and work on the precision of your comparisons. Additionally, pay attention to grammatical accuracy and spelling (e.g., 'persentage', 'inividuals', 'acounted') to ensure the report flows more professionally. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a basic structure with an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs. However, the progression of ideas is somewhat disjointed. The use of cohesive devices is limited, and some transitions between sentences are abrupt. To improve, try to use a wider variety of linking words (e.g., 'In contrast,' 'Furthermore,' 'Regarding...') to connect your observations more smoothly. Ensure that each paragraph has a clear central topic.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is somewhat repetitive and contains several spelling errors (e.g., 'persentage', 'inividuals', 'residens', 'Amout'). There is also some awkward phrasing, such as 'achieved to' or 'the residens who aged'. To reach a higher band, aim for more precise academic vocabulary and ensure correct spelling. Instead of repeating 'aged', you could use terms like 'demographics', 'age brackets', or 'age cohorts'. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are frequent and occasionally impede communication. There are issues with subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'Individuals... was'), tense consistency, and article usage. Additionally, the use of commas instead of decimal points (e.g., '0,2%') is incorrect in English academic writing; you should use a period (e.g., '0.2%'). Work on mastering basic sentence structures and pay close attention to how you describe changes over time (e.g., 'increased by X%' vs 'increased to X').
