Latest IELTS questions from Canada – July 2022 (General Training)

A very kind IELTS test taker from Canada (thanks, CM!) remembered the following questions from his recent exam:

Writing test

Writing task 1 (a letter)

You and a friend recently went on a holiday together. There is a problem with the photos you have taken during the holiday. Write a letter to your friend to ask for a particular photo. In your letter,

- Tell him/her about the problem with your photos

- Say which photo you would like him/her to send you

- Explain why you need this photo.

Writing task 2 (an essay)

Some people think that teenagers should be required to do unpaid community work in their free time. They believe this would benefit teenagers and the society. What is your opinion?

Give reasons for your answer and include relevant examples from your knowledge or experience.

Speaking test

Part 1 (Interview)

- What is your full name?

- Can I see your ID?

- Where do you live?

- Do you work or study?

There were more questions, but unfortunately CM didn't remember them.

Part 2 (Cue Card)

Talk about an invention you like that has become part of everyday life. You should say

- what it is

- why you like it

- and explain why you would recommend it to someone.

Part 3 (Discussion)

- Do you think inventions are making people lazy?

- What do you think makes people invent such things?
