Student answer (Band 5.0)

Medical research based projects are facilitated by private companies.

In this eassay my opinion is research produce innovations and inoovations cannot be paused by any individual or any private company or any government institution.

Medical research can be carried out with or without the team and any individual.

Research in Medical sector is the highlights for now a days and you can see the relative updates and headlines according to new research in medical field.

Now a days research projects are funded by private companies it shows good picture of innovation but it can be the best when the government should also takes part in it and make such policies which facilitates the private firms or any individual.

Private firms or companies don't have sufficient amount of funds or money by which they can carried out all.When government issue funds to private sectors and also took part in research projects with their institutions and policies, we can see the imporvements and increse in the number of new researches and innovations.Innovations or new research can be done with more confidence by backing the firm or any other instituion.

In this everyone should play thier own role to do more work on research to facilitate the people even if it is private company, a government sector or any individual.No matter who do this job can be appriciated by others to grow the society in good manner. Because health care is the important portion in aany society to live good and healthy life.

So, The research work should be faciliate by everyone in the society to grow well as a society, as a nation and as a country.

Task Achievement / Task Response: Band 5.0

You give a general position that medical research should be supported by everyone, especially through government backing for private firms. The point that public funding and policies could help increase research is relevant, and you mention the importance of healthcare to society. However, the response only partially answers the choice in the prompt: it does not clearly compare private companies, individuals, and government or explain which should take primary responsibility. Claims such as “we can see the improvements” are not supported with a specific example or explanation. The opening statement is also not developed into a clear argument. State your preferred model directly, then explain its benefits and support each main reason with a concrete example.

Coherence and Cohesion: Band 4.5

There is a basic sequence from introducing medical research, to discussing funding, and then concluding that everyone should contribute. The final paragraph signals a conclusion, and linking expressions such as “When” and “So” show attempts to connect ideas. However, progression is difficult to follow because the response is presented as one block and several points repeat the same general claim that research should be supported by everyone. Connections between ideas are sometimes unclear, particularly in the long sentence beginning “Private firms or companies don't have sufficient amount of funds.” Use separate paragraphs for your position, supporting reasons, and conclusion. Make each paragraph develop one main point, and use clear references and transitions rather than repeating “research” and “everyone.”

Lexical Resource: Band 5.0

The response uses some relevant topic vocabulary, including “medical research,” “private firms,” “funds,” “policies,” “innovations,” and “health care,” so the general subject is understandable. However, the range is limited and several word choices or collocations are inaccurate or awkward, which sometimes makes the intended meaning less clear. For example, “research produce innovations” and “research work should be faciliate by everyone” do not express the ideas naturally; “research can lead to innovation” and “research should be supported” would be clearer. There are also noticeable spelling errors, including “eassay,” “inoovations,” “imporvements,” and “appriciated.” Build a more precise set of academic phrases for funding, responsibility, and research outcomes, and check spelling carefully.

Grammatical Range and Accuracy: Band 5.0

You attempt both simple statements and longer sentences with clauses, for example, “When government issue funds to private sectors…” This shows an effort to express relationships between ideas, but complex sentences are often faulty, and errors occur frequently enough to make some sentences difficult to interpret. Examples include “the government should also takes part,” where the verb form does not agree with the modal, and “they can carried out,” where the verb pattern is incorrect. In “Private firms or companies don't have sufficient amount of funds,” the article and sentence structure also need attention. Sentence boundaries and punctuation are inconsistent, especially where several ideas run together. Practise accurate subject–verb agreement and modal patterns, and divide long sentences into shorter, controlled clauses.
