task achievement
The essay you have written does not constitute a complete response as it appears to be a collection of sentence starters and disjointed ideas rather than a cohesive essay. To improve, you need to create paragraphs that contain a single main idea, followed by explanations, elaborations, and examples. A well-structured essay should have a clear introduction with a thesis statement, developed body paragraphs, and a conclusive paragraph that summarises your points.
coherence cohesion
The coherence and cohesion of your essay are significantly lacking. Coherence can be improved by ensuring that your essay has a logical flow of ideas, with clear connections between them. Cohesion can be enhanced by using a range of cohesive devices properly (linking words, referencing, substitution, etc.) to tie your ideas together. Make sure that each paragraph has a clear central topic and that the sentences within it are logically ordered and well connected.

Fully explain your ideas
