• Question
A group of young people from another country
will be coming to stay in your home town for 3
months. You have been asked to write a report
for the organising committee about the THREE
best places for young people to have fun in your
area.
• Write your report for the committee (around
140-190 words).
• Ideas for writing
Ask yourself the following questions to help you get started:
• Make a list of the facilities you are going to write about. What about places to eat
and drink? Places to go and see a film or a concert? Places just to relax and hang
out with friends? Your list might include some or all of the following:
restaurants and cafes, theatres or cinemas, community centres or special societies.
• For each item on your list decide why you would recommend it to the visitors? Is
there any important advice you need to give also?
'Matthew's' is a lively restaurant which plays music all evening and the majority of
customers are in the 18-25 age range. However, it has a no-smoking policy, which
our visitors should be aware of.
• You may wish to organise your report by the use of subheadings.
e.g. places to eat and drink
• To conclude your report you may wish to give a general suggestion:
e.g. To enable our visitors to get the maximum enjoyment from their stay, I propose
that we give them a free travel pass....
Drafting and proofreading your work
• You should look at your first draft of the task and
decide:
• Have you answered the question? Will the organising
committee have some good ideas from your report?
• Is the report organised in a clear and logical way?
• Is the language accurate with a good range of
structures?
• Is the style OK?
• If the answer is 'no' to any of these questions then you
will need to do some more drafting!
