Task Achievement / Task Response: Band 5.0

You state a clear general view in the opening—that clean water should be supplied without charge—and give relevant reasons, including health risks in parts of Bangladesh and the importance of water for living things. However, the response addresses the question only partially: it does not explain clearly why every household should receive water free of charge, or consider how this policy could be funded or managed. Several points, such as the amount a person drinks and the example of planting trees, are mentioned but not developed into support for your position. The conclusion repeats that water is important rather than summarising your argument. The response is also 18 words below the required minimum, which limits the space available to develop your ideas.

Coherence and Cohesion: Band 5.0

There is some basic organisation: an opening statement is followed by paragraphs about water’s importance and water shortages, then a conclusion. You also attempt linking expressions such as “For example,” “Moreover,” and “As a result.” However, the overall progression is difficult to follow because several ideas are placed together without clear connections, and some transitions are inaccurate or repetitive. For instance, “On the other hand” does not introduce a contrasting view, while “So” and “Furthermore” do not always show how the next point follows. The final paragraph is only one sentence and does not bring the argument together. Use one paragraph for each main reason, explain each point in sequence, and choose linking phrases that accurately express the relationship between ideas.

Lexical Resource: Band 4.5

You use a small range of topic-related vocabulary, including “fundamental,” “clean water,” “supply,” and “diseases,” so the reader can identify the subject and some of your intended points. However, the range is limited and many spelling and word-choice errors make parts difficult to understand, such as “essentiacll,” “creade,” “desart,” and “drank fresh water.” Some combinations are also unnatural, including “our humanbody already 60% full of water” and “well bring thier body.” These problems fit a limited but minimally adequate vocabulary range: meaning is sometimes recoverable from context, but the reader has to work to interpret it. Build accuracy with common topic phrases such as “access to safe drinking water,” “waterborne diseases,” and “provide a reliable supply.”

Grammatical Range and Accuracy: Band 4.5

You attempt both simple statements and longer sentences, including a cause-and-effect idea about unsafe water and illness. However, the range of sentence structures is limited, and errors are frequent enough to make several sentences difficult to understand. Examples include “Every animals must need of water,” “we can not without live,” and “some are where there are no clean water.” Verb forms, agreement, articles, and sentence construction are often inaccurate; punctuation and spacing also make boundaries unclear, as in “However, water is life .” These patterns explain why grammatical control is not yet consistent. Practise building accurate simple sentences first, then combine them with clauses using “because,” “which,” and “as a result.”
