TR
Task Response (TR) - Your essay partially addresses the task; however, it does not fully develop an argument that reflects all parts of the prompt. The reasons explaining why celebrities earn more money than politicians are mentioned, but there's a lack of in-depth analysis. More importantly, you fail to effectively address the second part of the question regarding whether this is a positive or negative development. Consider devoting a full paragraph explicitly to discussing and evaluating the implications of this trend.
CC
Coherence and Cohesion (CC) - Your essay has a basic structure with an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. Yet, the logical sequencing of ideas could be improved for better clarity. While paragraphs are used, the connection between them could be made stronger with better use of cohesive devices and clear topic sentences that directly relate to the questions posed. Pay closer attention to how the ideas flow and connect more seamlessly from one paragraph to the next.
LRGRA
Lexical Resource and Grammatical Range and Accuracy (LRGRA) - While this criterion has not been explicitly mentioned, your essay demonstrates a limited range both in vocabulary and grammatical structures. Misuse of words and awkward phrasing ('famous people's income are always being gossip by community') distract from the message. Work on precision in language use and aim to correct grammatical errors to elevate the overall quality of your writing.
PF
Pronunciation and Fluency (PF) - This criterion is typically evaluated in a speaking test rather than in writing. However, an awareness of appropriate intonation, stress, and rhythm when conveying your ideas orally can contribute to clearer communication.
