Dear Jasmina, l am writing to ask if you can help me.We had a competition,and I won 2 days ago.Our reward was a ticket to Dubai,so I will go to Dubai tomorrow.I would be most grateful.If you could you care to my house.I water my flowers every day,so you should irrigate my flowers on a daily basis.
Moreover
, you should take care of animals and birds. I have a dog, a cat and two birds.Every morning I give some milk to my dog and cat,and I feed them with meat debris in the afternoons but they do not eat food in the evening,so you need not give them a meal in the evening.I care about my parrot's caution because they are very fable.I give some bird food to them only on afternoons, because they can not eat at other times.My very essential please is you must always lock the gate, because I am afraid of my cat.It may exit outside.I hope that my request will not inconvenience you too much. Kind regards, Zarina Zayniddinova

Structure your letter

A letter needs to be written using a proper format, including the following:

  • A greeting (Dear sir/madam, Dear John, Dear Mr. Smith)
  • The main body (consisting of paragraphs for each part of the letter)
  • A closing (Yours sincerely, Yours faithfully, Best wishes, Kind regards, Love)

When writing a letter as part of the IELTS General Training Writing Task 1, it is important to include the bullet points presented to you in the question.

All three bullet points need to be presented. And remember that some bullet points contain more than one element. So, make sure to watch for ‘and’ and plurals.
