- Say how you feel about the news
- Ask about the treatment in the hospital
- Suggest some ways of cheering him/her up
- Ask about the treatment in the hospital
- Suggest some ways of cheering him/her up
Dear John,
I’m sorry to hear that you’ve fallen and fractured your leg. It is
extremely unfortunate that you had this accident, especially when we are having
a big match next week.
I understand that you’re admitted in St. John’s Hospital and
will be there for a week. I hope you’re
taken care well at the hospital.
Although there had been some complaints about St. John’s in the past, I heard
they have improved a lot. Did you get to consult their chief orthopaedician?
His speciality is in sports medicine and he could
probably suggest some specific
treatments that will help you.
And let me share
some good news with you. Our university has granted a sports scholarship for
your studies. I heard it from our coach and you should be getting a letter
shortly. So it is not all gloom!
Do let me know if you need any
help. I will visit you at the hospital next week. Till then, bye.
Regards,
Prasad
This
letter covers the requirements of the task, all the bullet points are addressed
sufficiently. The information and ideas are presented logically, and the
paragraphing is appropriate. Although there are some instances of poor word
choice and grammar, most of the sentences are error-free. It is best to avoid
using contractions (e.g. you’re, we’re) in IELTS letters. Overall, seems worthy
of Band 8.
