IELTS GENERAL WRITING TASK 1
IELTS GENERAL WRITING TASK 1
You live in a house opposite some very inconsiderate neighbours. They are making life difficult for you and other people living in the street. You have spoken to them about their behaviour but nothing has changed.
You want the council (local authority) to take some action. Write a letter to the local council. In your letter
• explain the problem.
• describe what these neighbours are doing.
• say what you (and other neighbours) want the council to do.
SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing about some problems I have been having with neighbours who live opposite me. They are a family with three children and various aspects of their behaviour are totally unacceptable. They seem to have no respect for the people who live around them.

Firstly, we often hear arguing and shouting inside the house as well as outside in the street. As if that;s not bad enough, the two older teenagers come home very late at night and make a lot of noise. They often play loud music well after midnight and refuse to turn it down when asked. Secondly, they leave their rubbish in the garden which is not only unpleasant but also a danger to health and safety. Finally, there is graffiti on the walls of the house and at the nearby bus stop which I and other neighbours feel sure these children are responsible for.
It is unfair that residents have to tolerate this every day. We all pay tax to the council and feel that it is the council’s responsible to take action. We believe that the family should be given a warning and that if nothing changes, you should consider evicting them from the property.
Yours sincerely
