Cambridge 12: Academic IELTS Test 6 Writing Task 1 Sample (2 Maps: Islip town centre now and in the future)


Sample essay:


The maps compare the physical features of Islip town center at present and its proposed refurbishment in the future.

It can be highlighted from the visuals that there will be a lot of significant changes made in this area and that only a few establishments will remain. Looking at both maps, it can be seen that there will be commercial, residential and roadway improvements.

At present, there are a few shops in between the main road and also some housing below the shops and near the school. In the proposal, the center will have a dual carriageway that will surround all the commercial buildings to be constructed in the center, making them more accessible. The main road will become a pedestrian road that will be next to a bus station, a shopping center, a carpark, and new housing. These buildings will be replacing the shops located on the northern side of the center. The shops below the main road will be unchanged.


The school will remain in its original place on the southwestern side of Islip which will have some minor changes in the future. The park, which is located on the eastern side of the center will become smaller in size to make room for the dual carriageway that will be below it and the new residences that will be built beside it.

    The map describes the main feature changes between the prospective expansion of the Islip town centre and the current town centre.

    The most prominent modification for the new town centre comes in the form of a dual-carriageway surrounding the town centre. Similar additions to the proposed development are a bus station, shopping centre and a car park all adjacent to each other facing the north-south direction. Moreover, the pathway in front of the latest developments is pedestrians only zone.

    The array of shops lining the west-east direction is the only thing that is unchanged, although the opposite cluster of shops did not have a similar fate. The housing area is still intact moreover, new housing has been approved near the park in the south-east direction and another one in the north-east direction just close to the new buildings.

      You have great vocabs here though I'm unsure if they were used in proper context. I can say though that I can totally visualize the map just by reading the essay so I think it's around 7-ish. Sorry, I can't give you an exact rate since I have no authority to do that.

    The given maps illustrate the present condition and the proposed plans for the development of the Islip town center. It is clear from the diagram that Islip will change considerably with the introduction of several new developments in the second figure.
    The original town has a main road in the middle and shops are alongside the road. Residential houses are present to the south of the main road while the countryside is opposite. Additionally, the park and school are in the eastern and western directions, respectively.
    In the proposed plans, one of the most striking changes will be constructing a dual carriageway, which will be used as the main road, and the main road will be turned into a pedestrians' path. The countryside, thereafter, will be demolished where bus station, shopping center, car park area will be built to the north side of the footpath. Furthermore, new housing will construct both sides of the pedestrian, and the northeast corner housing will be connected with the dual carriageway. At last, the residential area of the southern part of shops will be refurbished and transferred to different locations.

Cambridge 11 Test 3 Writing Task 1

Sample: The data from the line graph illustrates the carbon dioxide emissions of an average individual per metric tonnes in four European countries every decade from 1967-2007.A closer look at the data highlights the fact that among the 4 nations, the UK has the highest rate in carbon dioxide emissions per person in 40 years. In 1967, there was approximately 11 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide released by an average Englishman which was about ten times higher than the emissions made by an individual from Portugal. However, it can be seen that as time went by, the carbon dioxide emitted by Englishmen decreased gradually to over 8 metric tonnes in 2007. On the other hand, a different trend can be noted in the countries Italy and Portugal where the emissions slowly rose from an initial rate of approximately 4 and 1 metric ton to about 7 and 6 metric tonnes in 4 decades. In Sweden, emissions increased to its record highest in 1977 w...

Please note that in the first part of the test, roughly 12 questions will be asked (3 topics). The topics are quite general so you do not need to explain your responses in too much detail.  As you can see, most of the questions in this test concentrate on the topic "Hotels and hospitality". We highly recommend assessing your own range of vocabulary about this topic by doing vocabulary review exercises such as listing all the words you know that belong to the scope of this topic. Try doing this with a time limit (2 minutes).  First, prepare a piece of paper and divide it into 4 sections. Make a table. Write "nouns", "verbs", "adjectives" and "idioms" as your headers. In two minutes, write down all the nouns, verbs, adjectives, and idioms you know about hotels and hospitality. DO NOT REFER TO YOUR DICTIONARY even if you're unsure of the spelling. This is your learning phase. Next, for another two minutes, list all the possible Synonym...

Cambridge 11 Test 1 Writing Task 1

Sample: The pie charts represent the rate of distribution of water in three different sectors, industrial, agricultural and domestic, in six places worldwide. Generally speaking, the use of water for agriculture has the highest percentage in almost all areas globally whereas water for household use has the lowest ratio. In central Asia, Africa and South East Asia, more than 80% of their water supply is utilized in the production of food which is almost two times larger than in North America that has a greater need in the industrial consumption of water with 48% respectively. Similarly, Europe distributes over half of their water supply in their industries which is far larger than the 5% rate in Central Asia. Water for household use accounts for less than one-fifths in the overall proportion in all six areas in  the world. This data reveals that water is highly used in the production of both food and other commodities than for domestic purposes.  Wo...
