IELTS Examiner / Practice Prompt Bank — GT & Academic / Task 1 Letter
IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Request Help — Money & banking
Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.
Your washing machine has broken down and a new one costs more than you can pay this month. Write a letter to your brother or sister. In your letter: • explain the problem • ask to borrow a specific amount of money • say exactly when and how you will repay it
Examiner focus: A family loan asked properly: amount, purpose, and a repayment date in writing.
