task response
The essay response addresses the question to a limited extent. It provides some relevant ideas but lacks depth of analysis. More specific examples and a clearer connection to the causes and solutions of homelessness are needed.
coherence and cohesion
The introduction lacks clarity and coherence, while the conclusion provides a summary of the main points but does not effectively tie back to the introduction. The logical progression of ideas is somewhat hindered by the lack of clear transitions between paragraphs and ideas.
lexical resource
There is a reasonable attempt to use a range of vocabulary, but errors in word choice and collocations affect the clarity and precision of the expression. Some awkward or inaccurate phrasing is present, impacting the overall lexical resource.
grammatical range
The essay demonstrates a partial control of a range of structures and sentence forms, but there are noticeable errors in sentence structure, word forms, and tense usage. These errors impede the overall communication and clarity of the response.
