the Holy Cross – Elevation of the Holy Cross in Eastern Orthodoxy to be more
precise – a day she was told you should ponder the large burden or burdens you
must bear that existentially challenge you. She couldn’t rightly say she had
bore excessively backbreaking burdens because she always compared her
difficulties to the worst kind faced by the disadvantaged, physically or
mentally challenged, those whose childhoods had left indelible scars. No, her

following sample letter has been written so that exam candidates for a
B2 level English examination (FCE now called First for Schools, ECCE,
IELTS - 5.5 / 6.0, MSU-CELC, ESB, LRN) can get some ideas about how to
organize and argue their writing.

<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">This particular question has been taken from a B2-level textbook preparing candidates for the Writing section of an English-language exam (particularly the FCE, now known as the B2 First or B2 First for Schools). In particular, this question deals with a <b>transactional letter asking for information</b> meaning that specific aspects need to be addressed in your letter. <b> </b><br></span></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The length of the sample letter that follows </span></span></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">(a little over 200 words)</span></span></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"> is
approximately what examiners would expect to be completed in half an

<span style="font-size: large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif">As I said in my last post, the questions that follow can be used by students and teachers alike as discussion starters, so even if you are not planning to sit an exam, you might find this article useful in terms of improving your English. Prepare vocabulary associated with the topic, or think about using linking words to sequence your ideas. These are just two of the "activities" teachers can promote as they discuss these questions with their pupils.</span></span></span></span><br>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif">The English oral examination for the Michigan State University (MSU) certificate at C2 level is a straight-forward affair if you know ahead of time what it is examiners might ask.</span></span></span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif">This applies to all Speaking components of English-language certificate exams which means that the more varied the types of questions a candidate has knowledge of in advance, the more likely he or she is to stumble upon a similar question on the actual day of the test. Thinking about what answers could be given ahead of time and jotting down some ideas in note form lets candidates worry about finding the right words to use during the exam instead of searching for things to say, arguments to give, examples to support an opinion which they might even not have at that particular moment. </span></span></span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><br></span></span></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif">This post therefore is not only geared towards those taking the MSU exam, but for candidates preparing for the IELTS, CPE, ECPE, ESB, LRN, TOEFL, PTE, BULATS, TIE, and similar tests whose list will doubtless increase with time.</span></span></span></span><br>

<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><span style="font-size: x-large;">This is the third sample report (Task 1) which follows IELTS guidelines for the Writing section of the Academic Module. </span></span><br>
<br>
<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"><span style="font-size: x-large;">The
graph in this case deals with three categories of gas emissions that contribute to air pollution.
It is a longer report than what a candidate would have time to draft
(230 words approximately), but the reason for this is to give candidates
more words to underline
and add to their list of phrases to use in such types of writing tasks.<br>
