Task Achievement
Task achievement can be improved by ensuring that you answer all parts of the question directly and provide relevant examples or explanations to support your points. In this case, the essay seems to be off-topic as it does not address the question about zoos but discusses changes to road access at a hospital instead. To improve, focus on giving a clear opinion on the topic of zoos and supporting it with specific arguments.
Coherence & Cohesion
To boost coherence and cohesion, effectively organize your ideas with a clear introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. Use a range of cohesive devices to link ideas within and across sentences. The essay provided is somewhat cohesive but does not possess a relevant introduction or conclusion related to the topic of zoos. A relevant conclusion summarizing the key points about the issue of zoos vs. natural habitat for animals would enhance the overall coherence.
