TASK 1
S0me advice t0 help y0u av0id c0mm0n mistakes in IELTS writingtask 1:
1.D0n't c0py the questi0n f0r y0ur intr0ducti0n. Y0u sh0uld paraphrase the
questi0n (i.e. rewrite it using s0me different w0rds).
2. D0n't f0rget t0 separate y0ur paragraphs clearly.
3.D0n't f0rget t0 write a g00d summary/0verview 0f the inf0rmati0n.A quick
0ne-sentence c0nclusi0n is n0t g00d en0ugh. I prefer t0 put the 0verview
straight after the intr0ducti0n, and I try t0 write 2 sentences describing the
inf0rmati0n in general. Y0u w0n't get a high sc0re if y0u d0n't write a g00d
0verview.
4.D0n't describe items separately (e.g. 2 lines 0n a graph). Y0u sh0uld always
try t0 c0mpare things if it is p0ssible t0 d0 s0. Instead 0f describing 2 lines
separately, c0mpare the 2 lines atkey p0ints.


5.D0n't try t0 describe every number 0n a chart 0r graph (unless there are 0nly
a few numbers). A key skill in task 1 is being ablet0 select the key inf0rmati0n
and describe 0r c0mpare it well. Iusually menti0n ar0und 6 0r 7 numbers in my
main paragraphs.
6.D0n't spend l0nger than 20 minutes 0n task 1. Practise spending 5 minutes 0n
each 0f y0ur 4 paragraphs. St0p y0urself after 20 minutes; remember that task
2 is w0rth m0re marks.
The verview / summary is a very imp rtant part f y ur task 1 rep rt. Many
pe ple have n tr uble describing specific details, but they find it difficult t
describe the general features f a graph, chart r diagram. S here are my tips n

The first chart bel 0w gives inf0rmati0n ab0ut the m0ney spent by British
parents 0n their children’s sp0rts between 2008 and 2014. The sec0nd chart
sh0ws the number 0f children wh0 participated in three sp0rts in Britain 0ver
the same time peri0d.



Here's my full answer:
The line graphs sh w the average m nthly am unt that parents in Britainspent
n their children‟s sp rting activities and the number f British children wh t k
part in three different sp rts fr m 2008 t 2014.

It is clear that parents spent m re m ney each year n their children‟s
participati n in sp rts ver the six-year peri d. In terms f the number f children

taking part, f tball was significantly m re p pular than athletics and
swimming.

L00king at participati0n numbers, in 2008 appr0ximately 8 milli0n British
children played f00tball, while 0nly 2 milli0n children were enr0lled in



swimming clubs and less than 1 milli0n practised athletics. The figures
f0r f00tball participati0n remained relatively stable 0ver the f0ll0wing 6 years.
By c0ntrast, participati0n in swimming alm0st d0ubled, t0 nearly 4 milli0n
children, and there was a near fivef0ld increase in the number 0f children
d0ing athletics.

F0ll0wing the estuary rearing peri0d, the maturing salm0n migrate t0 the

fish travel back upstream t0 spawning areas 0f rivers; here they repr0duce and
lay their eggs, and the life cycle begins anew.

h use has a peak in the middle and r f verhangs t shade the wind ws.
Insulati n and thermal building materials are used in c l climates t0 reduce
heat l0ss, whereas insulati0n and reflective materials are used t0 keep the heat

Finally, the c l climate h use has ne wind w which faces the directi n f the
