Overall assessment

Why this response received Band 5.0

The response attempts to cover both visuals and offers a general overview, which is its strongest aspect. However, it repeatedly misreads the data, attributing reasons for car use to the wrong transport modes, and its language contains frequent grammatical and word-choice errors that often obscure meaning.

IELTS criteria

How each score was decided

Task Achievement

5.0

The response identifies the visuals' general topics and gives an overview that car use is highest and taxi lowest, but it systematically confuses the two visuals, claiming taxi is used for shopping and LRT for taking children to school when the table describes reasons for car use, so key details are largely inaccurate.

Coherence and Cohesion

5.0

There is a visible overall structure with an overview and data sections, but progression is mechanical and coherence breaks down as misread data and awkward linkers such as 'Apparently, it is crystal noticeable' make the message hard to follow.

Lexical Resource

5.0

The response attempts some data-related phrasing such as 'more than one third' and 'one-tenth', but word choice is frequently imprecise or unnatural, including 'table chart', 'calibrated in percentile', and 'less preference to taxi as compared to other'.

Grammatical Range and Accuracy

5.0

Sentence structures show some attempts at complex forms, but frequent errors such as 'the pie chart and table chart illustrates', 'who were using by Bus', and 'they using the Light rail transit' recur across the response and often impede clarity.
