The writer lacks familiarity with the image types. Pie charts are different from graphs and indicate different measurement basis considerations.There is a punctuation usage eror in the 3rd paragraph. A dashline is being used even though it is irrelevant to the discussion presentation. Accurate punctuation usage is a major part of the score. Even if only 1 punctuation ever is spotted, a deduction will be appropriately applied.

There is a confusing presentation in relation to residential water use. It appears as if the writer tried to insert information, resulting in a confusing sentence presentation. It is important not to cram too much data into one sentence because it causes confusion while being read by someone other than the writer.
