IELTS General Writing Task 1 Practice Test 12

Recently you saw an article in a newspaper/journal about a city/town you know and some of the information in the article was incorrect. Write a letter to the editor regarding this. In your letter, you should tell:

• how you know about this city/town
• what information was incorrect
• what the editor should do about this.

Sample Letter

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing this letter to you regarding an article named Bangalorites, published in your newspaper on February 2nd, 2021. I’m a resident of Bangalore and have been residing in Jayanagar for the past twenty years. After finishing my studies at Jain College, I grabbed a job in one of the local companies. Thus, I can say that I know Bangalore pretty well, especially the Jayanagar area.

In the article that was published last week, you mentioned that there is an array of attractions and facilities in the area. While most of the details were accurate and efficient for newcomers and old residents, you mentioned that the rooftop cafe is located in the 9th block. In reality, it is in the 4th block.

Since your newspaper is quite followed and people read it daily, providing inaccurate information may mislead people. It may also impact your reputation. To correct this goof-up, you may write a separate article on the rooftop cafe and talk about its correct address.

Thanks for your time.

Yours faithfully,

Shraddha
