IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Request Help — Health & fitness
Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.
You broke your arm last week and cannot drive for six weeks, but you need to get to work every day. Write a letter to a colleague who lives near you. In your letter: • explain what happened • ask if you could travel with them to work and share the petrol cost • say how long you would need the lifts for
Examiner focus: A time-limited request with the end date and cost-sharing stated up front.
