IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Request Help — Family & friends

Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.

You are moving house next Saturday and your new flat is on the third floor with no lift. Write a letter to a friend. In your letter: • explain the move and why you need help • say what kind of help you need and for how many hours • tell them what food and drink you will provide

Examiner focus: Honest about the hard parts (third floor, no lift) and clear about duration and thanks.
