task response
Ensure your essay stays on topic and fully addresses the task. This response doesn't answer the question about the perception of alternative medicine, and instead, it discusses fast food consumption among teenagers.
coherence
Organize your essay with a clear introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. Each paragraph should have a clear main idea and follow logically from one to the next. This response lacks a structured approach to the topic given.
cohesion
Work on grammar, spelling, and punctuation. There are multiple errors such as 'garph' instead of 'graph', 'makkah' should be capitalized, and 'pizz' is presumably a typo for 'pizza'. Regular practice and proofreading can greatly improve this.

Fully explain your ideas
