Task Achievement / Task Response: Band 5.0
You take a clear position in favour of free clean water and give relevant reasons, including its importance for health and the risks of drinking unfiltered water. However, the response only partially develops the task: the health point is repeated several times, and there is little explanation of why water should be free for every household or how this could be provided. The reference to kidney and stomach problems is relevant but remains general, with no specific example or supporting detail. The response is also 65 words below the required minimum, which limits the opportunity to develop your argument. To strengthen it, explain one or two reasons in depth and support them with a concrete example.
Coherence and Cohesion: Band 4.0
The reader can identify your main position and follow a basic sequence: clean water is important, unsafe water harms health, and therefore water should be free. However, the response is presented as one continuous block, so the argument has no clear paragraph structure. Ideas also repeat rather than progress, particularly the claims that clean water is important for health and that dirty water causes disease. Linking phrases such as “On the other hand” do not express the relationship intended, since the following sentence supports the same position. Organise the essay into an introduction, separate reason paragraphs, and a conclusion; use connectors that accurately show cause, contrast, or result.
Lexical Resource: Band 5.0
You use a small set of relevant terms, including “clean water,” “human right,” “unfiltered water,” and “diseases,” so the central topic is understandable. However, vocabulary is limited and repeated, especially “most important part” and “clean water.” Several spelling errors and inaccurate word choices make parts harder to read, such as “dieases,” “dangrous,” “dusrt,” and “healty.” Some phrases are also unnatural, including “for sustainability a healthy life” and “enjoy his healthy life.” Build a wider range of accurate topic vocabulary and check spelling carefully. More precise expressions for access, public health, and household costs would help you explain your position without repeating the same wording.
Grammatical Range and Accuracy: Band 5.0
Your response mainly uses simple statements and attempts to connect ideas with “because” and “if,” but the range of sentence structures is limited. Frequent errors in sentence formation and basic grammar sometimes make the meaning difficult to follow. For example, “every single home have” has a subject–verb agreement error, while “yes i am agree” uses an incorrect verb form. Articles and sentence boundaries are also problematic in “The clean water is a primary human right.On the other hand the every single home…” Capital letters and full stops are often missing or misplaced. Practise accurate simple sentences first, then add controlled complex sentences, checking agreement, verb forms, articles, and punctuation.
