IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Formal Business — Community
Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.
Residents on your street want the council to install speed bumps because drivers use the street as a shortcut. Write a letter to the local council. In your letter: • describe the problem and give examples • explain the risk to children and elderly residents • request speed bumps or another traffic measure
Examiner focus: Civic letter discipline: evidence, affected groups, one clear requested action.
