Task Achievement / Task Response: Band 5.5

You give a clear general view that science has improved people’s lives, and the examples of communication, learning, transport, medicine and agriculture are relevant to the question. However, the response mainly describes benefits rather than fully explaining how far you agree with the statement or considering whether improving lives should be science’s most important aim. Several points are asserted briefly—for example, that disease is easier to find with modern instruments—without explaining the impact or giving a specific example. To strengthen the response, state your position directly in the introduction and develop two or three examples with clear explanations of how they improve people’s lives. A brief qualification, such as acknowledging the value of scientific research that does not produce immediate benefits, would also address the wording more fully.

Coherence and Cohesion: Band 5.0

There is some organisation: the opening introduces the topic, the main paragraphs group examples from different fields, and the final paragraph restates the overall view. However, progression is not consistently clear. The first main paragraph moves from medicine and agriculture to space programmes, then focuses on communication and learning; the next combines transport, medicine, agriculture and weather forecasting. This makes the central point difficult to follow. Linking phrases such as “On the other hand” suggest a contrast, but the following paragraph continues to list benefits rather than presenting an opposing view. Use one paragraph for each main reason, begin each with a clear topic sentence, and connect examples to that reason. Clearer paragraph boundaries and less repetition of “before” and “now” would improve the flow.

Lexical Resource: Band 5.0

You use enough topic-related vocabulary to communicate several relevant areas, including “medical field,” “technology,” “transport,” and “agriculture.” However, the range is limited and many expressions are repeated, especially “big impact,” “very easy,” and “people life.” Some word choices and collocations are unclear or inaccurate, such as “science add big impact,” “fiend disease,” and “weather forcost,” while spelling errors including “sceience,” “communcati,” and “happent” make the reader work harder. Aim to learn accurate phrases for describing effects, such as “has a significant impact on people’s lives,” and check spelling carefully. More precise vocabulary for each example would help you explain benefits rather than relying on general claims.

Grammatical Range and Accuracy: Band 5.0

You attempt to connect ideas in longer sentences using words such as “but,” “when,” and “because,” and the overall meaning is usually recoverable. However, the range of sentence structures is limited, and complex sentences often contain several errors. For example, “science add big impact on people lives” has problems with verb agreement and possessive form, while “it be very easy to learn” has an incorrect verb form. Articles and sentence boundaries are also inconsistent, as in “before we had no any technology” and “any one.Also.” These errors recur and sometimes make relationships between ideas unclear. Practise accurate present-tense patterns such as “science has an impact on people’s lives,” and divide long sentences into shorter, correctly punctuated units before attempting more complex structures.
