greeting and closing
The greeting at the beginning of the letter should adopt a more standard format, such as 'Dear [Friend's Name]' instead of 'Dear Nozima,' to maintain an appropriate tone and formality for the IELTS exam.
logical structure
Maintain a clear structure by organizing the content into separate paragraphs for each point: the explanation of the event, the apology, and the new arrangement suggestion.
complete response
Expand on the explanation of the important event, providing more details that make the situation clear and the reason for the change very explicit.
single idea per paragraph
Use more cohesive devices and transitional phrases to connect your ideas and paragraphs smoothly, enhancing the overall coherence of the letter.
greeting and closing
The closing of the letter should be formal, such as 'Yours sincerely' or 'Kind regards,' followed by a comma and your name on the next line.
suitable writing tone
The tone is suitable, but ensure that your letter maintains a balance between informality (as it's a letter to a friend) and the necessary politeness and formality for the test.
