Content: { "score": "6.5", "overall_comment": "The essay presents a balanced discussion of both views regarding the salary gap between directors and regular employees. The writer provides relevant examples and logical reasoning. However, the essay could benefit from clearer organization, more precise language, and a stronger conclusion.", "task_response": { "score": "6", "comment": "The essay addresses both sides of the argument and provides a personal opinion. While there are relevant examples and explanations, the argument could be further developed with more specific evidence or examples. The conclusion is somewhat abrupt and could more clearly restate the writer's opinion with stronger justification." }, "coherence_cohesion": { "score": "6", "comment": "The essay has a logical flow, but the use of cohesive devices could be improved. Some transitions between ideas are unclear, and paragraphs could be more clearly connected. The introduction and conclusion could be better aligned with the body paragraphs." }, "lexical_resource": { "score": "7", "comment": "There is a good range of vocabulary, and the writer attempts to use some complex words and phrases. However, there are occasional inaccuracies, and some expressions are awkward or imprecise. The essay would benefit from more precise language." }, "grammatical_accuracy": { "score": "7", "comment": "The essay demonstrates a good range of grammatical structures, and most sentences are error-free. There are some errors in punctuation and sentence structure, but they do not impede understanding. Further attention to complex sentence structures would improve the score." }, "feedback_by_paragraphs": { "introduction": { "content": "There is no doubt that leaders in large-scale companies receive a greater pay than other regular workers. While some people see this statement as important, others believe it is unjust. In this essay, I will discuss both views and explain why I think this is crucial.", "feedback": "The introduction sets up the essay's topic and outlines that both views will be discussed. However, it lacks a clear thesis statement that directly states the writer's opinion, which should be more prominently featured." }, "body_paragraph_1": { "content": "On the one hand, it is true that the compensation gap between leaders and regular workers is becoming wider in various industries. For instance, CEOs of Fortune 500 companies usually make headlines about receiving high salaries and huge benefits packages, including houses and company shares, which can cost up to millions of US dollars per year. In contrast, the average wage of an average worker ranges from 15-20 US dollars per hour. The argument goes on as top executives can not contribute hundreds of times more effort than regular workers despite their salaries being hundreds of times higher than those of ordinary workers. This is because full-time workers work with similar hours as an executive, which usually ranges at 8 hours. However, with a limit of 24 hours a day, it is absurd that a leader can work hundreds times more than the average employee. As a result, considering time and effort, this is deemed unfair.", "feedback": "The paragraph presents the argument about the unfairness of salary disparities with examples. The logic is clear, but the paragraph could benefit from more cohesive devices to link ideas. The reasoning about time and effort could be expanded for clarity." }, "body_paragraph_2": { "content": "On the other hand, people usually forget the fact that the high paying jobs coincide with a strong educational background, years of experience. Since directors bear immense responsibilities and must navigate complex business challenges, their substantial salaries serve as compensation for their expertise and the risks they undertake. Moreover, it is said that people deem high pay rewards for contributions and dedications in work, inspiring workers to perform better and stay with the company for a long time. In addition, it is competitive salaries that attract top talents to leadership positions, increasing the productivity of the company. Nevertheless, without competitive compensation, talented professionals can seek the other opportunities, which lead to a decline in the business performance.", "feedback": "This paragraph effectively presents the opposing viewpoint with logical reasoning and examples. However, some sentences are lengthy and could be split for clarity. The paragraph should also explicitly connect back to the writer's opinion to reinforce the argument." }, "conclusion": { "content": "To sum up, although the widen gap in salaries between leaders and regular workers can be considered as unjust in terms of time and effort, it still plays a crucial role in the organizations’ development and also the years of experiences, training can outweigh those concerns. Therefore, I believe that the compensation gap should be retained high.", "feedback": "The conclusion attempts to summarize the main points and restate the opinion, but it lacks clarity and
