About this ebook
This book which provides practice in how to plan and write responses for graphs, tables and diagrams for the IELTS Academic Module is essential preparation for all serious students who are determined to achieve a high IELTS band score.
Achieving a high IELTS band in Writing is not easy! There are no magic short-cuts. Writing any type of text is difficult and requires much practice and effort. This is particularly true of Task 1 questions, which are so very different from most writing that English-language learners do.
Each individual task contains 5 sections:
1. Writing Task
The tasks reflect very closely the type and range of questions that are set in the IELTS exam: line graphs, bar graphs, pie charts, tables of data, diagrams and flow charts.
2. Detailed Guide to the Task
Clear advice is given on “Focusing on the Data, Observing Key Points and Structuring the Information”.
3. Annotated Graphic
This highlights what key points need to be dealt with in the response.
4. Model Answer
The writing models are examples of very good responses to the task which would score very highly in the exam.
5. Answer Comments
The detailed notes that follow each response highlight the features of the response that make it excellent.
This book is specifically aimed at those who are serious about their IELTS exams and determined to reach their goal of going on to further academic studies or qualifying for entry to another country.
