How To Write A Description For A Map
In
the IELTS exam, you might be asked
to write a report based on
pictorial information such as a process or a map.
A map question usually asks you
to describe the changes that
happened to an area over a given period of time.
Writing Task 1 Map questions are
arguably among the toughest
questions to tackle in the IELTS exam. This is mainly because candidates
have to use a set of map-related vocabulary that they might not be used to.
The main features and changes are not as clear-cut as in the typical graph
and chart questions. For these reasons, it’s important to go into the exam
with a good strategy to help you write a high-scoring response.
Writing Your Report
Despite being slightly different from the other task 1 question types,
the steps to produce a good map description remain the same.
You need to:
Analyze the question
Plan out your report structure
Write a good introduction
Write an overview paragraph
Write the main body paragraphs describing the changes which have
taken place.
Step 1- Analyze The Question.
The question statement will provide you
with several useful pieces
of information, such as the name of the area that needs to be described and
123
the time periods represented. This will help you decide which tense to use
in your report.
You need to study the map and
look for features that have
disappeared, together with new features. You
also need to make note of
anything that hasn’t changed.
