IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Thank You — Home & neighbourhood
Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.
A friend helped you move house last weekend, spending the whole day carrying boxes and furniture. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter: • thank them for their help • mention specific things they did that made the move easier • invite them to your new home for a meal to say thank you properly
Examiner focus: Specific gratitude — name what they actually did — plus a real invitation in return.
