IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Request Help — Technology & communication
Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.
You have just started selling handmade furniture online and need good photographs of your products. Write a letter to a friend who is a keen photographer. In your letter: • explain what you are selling and why photographs matter • ask them to take photographs of about ten items • offer payment or a piece of furniture in return
Examiner focus: Professional help from a friend: scope counted, payment offered, no assumption of free work.
