Write a letter to editor of the newspaper for claiming prize which they acknowledged. In your letter, you should say: • Details of how you won the prize • What the prize you are going to get • What actions you expect to be taken.

Dear Sir, I am a regular column writer in your newspaper. I am writing
this
letter to inform you about the reward that I won
last
week for the best essay in your newspaper.
One
month ago you published
one
of my essays in your magazine which was about oral hygiene maintenance.
This
subject was greatly appreciated by the readers and the response was astonishing. As per your policy, you decided to give me a prize. The reward was
one
thousand dollars announced
last
week which is still pending. It was supposed to be given within
one
week of the announcement. I was wondering if you could kindly invite me and my family to your company and hand me
this
prize in front of them. I want to make it a memorable event of my life. I will be very thankful for
this
act of kindness. Yours Sincerely, Muhammad Irfan

Use cohesive linking words accurately and appropriately

Linking words are very important in your essay.

To score effectively on your IELTS exam, you should make an effort to implement short concise sentences coupled with linking words.

Almost every sentence in your essay should have a linking word of some sort.

In fact, the only sentences that can omit linking words are your background sentence and thesis.

Linking word examples:

  • firstly
  • secondly
  • thirdly
  • in additional
  • moreover
  • also
  • for example
  • for instance
  • therefore
  • however
  • although
  • even though
  • despite
