Overall assessment
Why this response received Band 5.5
The response engages with both parts of the task, naming environmental problems and proposing awareness and education as solutions, with a clear conclusion. However, ideas are only partially developed, the link between some claims is confusing, and pervasive spelling and grammatical errors frequently strain readability.
IELTS criteria
How each score was decided
TR Task Response
5.5The response addresses both questions with a clear position and a Spanish example, but ideas are unevenly developed and the argument that reduced CO2 sources increases pollution shows limited, sometimes inaccurate extension of relevant ideas.
CC Coherence and Cohesion
5.5Progression is visible through the introduction, problem discussion, solutions and conclusion, each signalled by a line break or linking expression. However, unclear references and the confusing description of trees as “CO2 sources” weaken the links between claims.
LR Lexical Resource
5.0Vocabulary is adequate for the topic but limited in range and marked by noticeable errors and misspellings, such as 'evolutioning', 'desforestation' and 'concience', which reduce precision.
GRA Grammatical Range and Accuracy
5.0A mix of simple and complex structures is attempted, but errors such as “will must change”, “be concern” and the missing subject in “is known that” reduce control. The final “we left behind” also conflicts with the intended future perspective.
