Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 150 words in writing task 1. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long letter will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 160 to 190 words in writing task 1. This will ensure a concise letter and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 20 minutes to write the letter and you need around 5 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long letter in 15 minutes.

In the last century when a human astronaut first arrived on the Moon he said: "It is a big step for mankind". But some people think it makes little difference to our daily life. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Scientists are always eager to know about other planets, where they can study them in detail and make them beneficial to the Earth. While many people argue that in the 19th. Century travellers first time touched the surface of the moon was a historic development of science and will change our life towards new developments, others believe that it was a waste of money, instead that money could have been used to build public amenities such as hospitals, schools , roads, and libraries. I believe that the invention of the planets and the search for minerals will change the population’s lives. This stance will be proven by carefully analysing the topic and at the end I will provide my views.

It is widely believed that the most perfect way to rest and diminish stress is to spend time all alone.

This essay checks the validity of both points of view and presents my own opinion on this statement.
