General Training Model Answer – IELTS (Task 1)

You recently stayed in a hotel in another city. When you got home you discovered that you had left something of value in the room.

Describe the item that you left behind and say where you left it

Ask the hotel to arrange to send it to you

Suggest a way to pay for the postage



Dear Sir or Madam,



I was a guest at your hotel from the 14th to the 18th of November, staying in room 812. When I returned home I discovered that I had forgotten my watch in the bathroom.



It’s an Omega watch with a brown leather strap. There are no numbers on the face of the watch but there is a personal inscription at the back. When I went to wash my face, I removed it and placed in on the sink. At that moment my mobile rang and I was distracted.



The watch is expensive and a gift from my husband so I would like you to send it to me by courier to the address provided at the top of the letter. This will ensure that I receive it early and safely. With respect to paying for the delivery, you may inform the courier company that I will pay cash on delivery.



Yours faithfully,

Gina Davis
