Task Response

The report attempts to address the task but includes irrelevant and inaccurate information, particularly regarding the trends and reasons for changes in sports participation. The response also misinterprets some data and introduces external factors not supported by the chart. To improve, focus on accurately describing the data presented in the chart, avoid introducing external factors or personal opinions, and ensure that all statements are directly supported by the visual information. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report presents a general overview but lacks a clear structure and logical flow. The introduction is somewhat vague, and the body paragraphs could benefit from more focused topic sentences and transitions. The 'overall' statement is partially accurate but needs more specific evidence from the data. The final paragraph introduces external factors without directly linking them back to the data trends. To improve coherence, ensure each paragraph has a clear focus and that transitions smoothly connect ideas. For cohesion, use more specific references to the data to support your claims.

Lexical Resource

The report uses a limited range of vocabulary, with some inaccuracies ('partipicating,' 'sorts of sport,' 'sportish'). There's reliance on general words like 'amount,' 'quantity,' and 'popularisation.' To enhance lexical resource, try to use more precise and varied vocabulary related to trends and comparisons (e.g., 'participation rates,' 'increased marginally,' 'experienced a surge'). Also, ensure correct spelling and word choice throughout.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains grammatical errors that affect clarity. Examples include incorrect verb forms ('are partipicating,' 'has extrimely discreased'), awkward phrasing ('amount of adults who are interested in sorts of sport'), and potential subject-verb agreement issues. While the report demonstrates some range in sentence structure, accuracy needs improvement. Focus on using correct verb tenses, subject-verb agreement, and clearer sentence structures. Proofreading carefully for errors is essential.
