IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Thank You — Family & society

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

An older neighbour taught you to cook several traditional dishes from your home country while you were homesick abroad. Write a letter to the neighbour. In your letter: • thank them for the cooking lessons • say which dish you now cook for your own family • invite them to eat that dish at your home

Examiner focus: The student becomes the cook: the invitation completes the thank-you.
