IELTS General Writing Task 1 Practice Test 18

A foreign friend of yours plans to visit your place and stay with you, but you are not available on that date. Give your friend another alternate date for the visit. In your letter, you should:

• apologise for it
• explain what you are doing on that date
• suggest to him/her an alternate time to come

Sample Letter

Dear Sasha,

I got your message that stated your visit to my city. Let me tell you, I am more than excited and elated to receive you. However, I’d like to apologize beforehand for what I am going to say next. The date that you mentioned – 25th February, unfortunately, I am not available on this date.

I have my last exam; thus, I would have to go out of the city for the entire day. If it was not that important, I wouldn’t be asking you not to come. In fact, for months, I was waiting eagerly to meet you.

Why don’t you change the date if possible? I am free anytime after 25th February. You will be more than welcome to stay with me for as many days as you want. We are definitely going to have a fun-filled time together.

Once again, I am sorry for this inconvenience. Looking forward to meeting you soon.

Yours lovingly,

Aastha
