sales amounts would extend the information and raise the band score. 
(CC) Coherence and Cohesion
 
A good use of cohesive devices and paragraphing.
(LR) Lexical Resource
 
A sufficient range to allow some flexibility, although at times repetitive (total sales). 
(GRA) Grammatical Range and Accuracy
 
Unfortunately, there are some errors in the grammar (subject-verb agreement) and 
the lack of variety of complex sentences keeps the band at a 6.
Example 4
The table represents the daily earning of a small restaurant which is located in a 
downtown business area between the 7th and 13nd of October. 
Overall, it is clear that the sale of foods at dinner time were higher than the lunch 
time. Furthermore, the weekend sales were lower than the sales happened in the 
weekdays. 
A more detailed look at the lunch time data reveals that the restaurant started with a 
total 
sale 
value 
of 
$
2.400 on Monday. They experienced a slow increase of income 
until Wednesday which was the highest lunch sale (
$
2.595) before dropping down 
slightly to the least earned day which was on Sunday with just only 
$
1.550. 
With regards to the sales at dinner time, the sales fluctuated during the week. Dinner 
sale 
value 
was at 
$
3.623 on the first day of the week. In addition to that, the 
maximum earning was on Friday with 
$
4.350, whereas the minimum earning was on 
Sunday with nearly half of the Friday figure (
$
2.450).
