IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Complaint — Community
Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.
A new café on your street has started playing loud music outdoors in the evening, disturbing residents. Write a letter to the café owner. In your letter: • explain how the music affects you and your neighbours • acknowledge that you support local businesses • ask them to reduce the volume after a certain time
Examiner focus: Firm but neighbourly: support stated first, then the specific, reasonable limit requested.
