课件简介

The IELTS writing test takes one hour. In this time you are required to complete two tasks.

TASK ONE is a report based on some graphic information provided on the question paper. With few exceptions, the graphic information will come in one of five forms – a line graph, bar graph, pie chart, table or diagram illustrating a process. You are required to describe the information or the process in a report of 150 words. This task should be completed in 20 minutes. It is important that you are familiar with the language appropriate to report writing generally and to each of the five types of report.

TASK TWO is an essay based on a topic given on the question paper. You should write at least 250 words in 40 minutes. It is important that you keep within the advised time limits as Task Two carries more weight in your final band score than Task One. Remember that illegible handwriting will reduce your final score.

The attached document here provides for IELTS takers guidelines on how to do each of the five Task One forms of writing based on some graphic information. These guidelines include explanations about the task description, instructions on how to select information, how to structure the report, and how to use the grammar and vocabulary (such as transitional words and expressions) correctly and appropriately, etc. Together with the guidelines are exercises, their corresponding sample answers, and teachers’ comments on the sample answers.

Similarly, for Task Two, discussions are given to the task description and its requirement of the test takers’ abilities, together with sample tasks, sample answers, teachers’ comments, and recommended strategies for improving IELTS scores.
