Step 4 – Write The Main Body Paragraphs
In the main body paragraphs, you need to provide details about the
changes to the map that you noted when analyzing the question. Many
students find it easier to organize map information according to time and
period. You can dedicate a separate paragraph for each time period to do
this.
Note: My Advanced IELTS Writing Band 9 Course shows you
how to organize it differently, where you compare each feature side by
side, but for this example, we will organize it by time period.

Sample Main Body Paragraphs
:
In 1995 most of Charmington was undeveloped, and there were just
a few holiday cottages and a hotel on the western side, as well as a
small tearoom near the dunes in the south, and a bank on the
riverfront.
However, the map for 2025 shows that some radical changes are
planned for the town. To the northwest of Charmington, the forest will
be turned into a nature reserve. Additionally, the nearby marsh area
will be developed into residential housing units, and the holiday
cottages will be demolished and rebuilt facing the lake next to the East
Bank.
A new town center will be built to include several new facilities
such as a boat club on the riverfront, a retirement village, and a
shopping mall, built where the dunes used to be. Meanwhile, the small
tearoom next to the dunes will be upgraded to a restaurant. The only
features of the map to remain the same are the hotel in the southeast of
the town and the East Bank.
