Another exam is coming up this saturday. Since it is only one week before the Easter, is there any idea as to question forms we might come across with for speaking tasks or writing tasks related to holidays and celebrations?

Cheers

Hi DicroticNotch,

It's pretty hard to predict. Although themes do repeat, I'm not sure anyone could accurately say what is on deck for this weekend. Have a look at what Chris (ex-examiner) has to say about the subject of IELTS themes: http://ielts-yasi.englishlab.net/WHAT_T ... RE_FOR.htm

Thanks ryan.
Please try to put some sample answer just to get an idea of how to create sentences and other etiquettes.
