Task Achievement / Task Response: Band 3.0

The response makes a limited attempt to discuss globalisation, mentioning social media, travel, popular culture and learning about modern culture and athletes. However, it does not clearly explain whether increased interaction between nations is a good thing, so your own opinion is not established. The opening also shifts to discussing reasons for globalisation and “steps to mitigate the situations,” which is not the task, and the final sentence is unfinished. The response contains 92 words, so it is 158 words below the required minimum; the nine words copied from the prompt are excluded. To address the task more fully, state your position directly, develop relevant benefits and/or drawbacks with explanations and examples, and complete the response.

Coherence and Cohesion: Band 3.0

There is a basic attempt to organise the response: an opening sentence is followed by a paragraph introducing possible factors and examples, then a final line about possible solutions. Some links between ideas can be inferred, such as social media and travel increasing contact, but the progression is difficult to follow because the opening promises a discussion of causes and solutions rather than an evaluation of globalisation. The final phrase, “different ways can b taken into account to overpower the matter of,” is incomplete and leaves the reader without a conclusion. Use separate paragraphs for your position, supporting points and conclusion, and connect each point explicitly to the question. Clearer referencing and complete sentences would make the organisation easier to follow.

Lexical Resource: Band 4.5

You attempt some topic-related vocabulary, including “increased interaction,” “globalization,” “popular culture” and “achievements of players.” These choices show an effort to discuss the subject beyond very basic language. However, several expressions are inaccurate or unclear, including “hash out the reason behind globalization has rapidly incresed” and “overpower the matter,” and spelling is inconsistent in “globalisation” and “globalization.” The repeated use of broad terms such as “matter” and “situations” also makes the ideas imprecise. Choose vocabulary that expresses the intended relationship more exactly, and check spelling and collocations. For example, describe how globalisation “has expanded” and how nations “interact,” rather than referring vaguely to a matter to be overpowered.

Grammatical Range and Accuracy: Band 4.5

The response attempts a longer sentence with a reason and examples, and uses a relative clause in “popular culture teach about the modern culture and about the achievements of players.” However, sentence structures are mostly basic or incomplete, and errors often make relationships between ideas hard to understand. For instance, “this essay intends to hash out the reason behind globalization has rapidly incresed” combines clauses without a grammatical link, while “increased interaction between nations through globalization is. a good” has faulty sentence construction and punctuation. The final line is also unfinished. Practise building complete sentences with a clear subject and verb, and use conjunctions to connect reasons and examples. Proofread punctuation and agreement so that each sentence communicates one complete idea.
