IELTS GENERAL WRITING TASK 1
You live in a complex of 50 flats. You want to make your flat bigger. Before you do this, you need the body corporate (the organisation that controls your flats) to agree to this change. Write a letter to the body corporate. In your letter:
• Introduce yourself and your flat.
• Say what change(s) you want to make, why, and when.
• Ask the body corporate to let you do this.
SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Mr. H,
My name is Yami Yuchini. My family and I own flat 26B in the Forest Lake Complex. We have been living here for twelve years.
I am writing to you with regard to an extension I would like to make to my flat now that we have three children. I intend to add three square metres to the western side of my ground floor, and create a terrace on the roof of this addition. At present, there is a service lane on the western side, which is virtually unused. My addition would not restrict access to this lane, nor would it cause my neighbours to lose any light as there is already a high wall around our complex which darkens this aspect.
I would like to begin work on this addition as soon as possible. I hope the body corporate will agree to my plan.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
