Writing Feedback / IELTS 2:Talents naturally inherited and talents which are taught [5]

This is a common IELTS task and I wish to express my view on it also.

TASK:It is generally believed that some people are born with certain talents, for instance for sports or music, and others are not. However, it is sometimes claimed that any child can be taught to become a good sports person or musician. Discuss both these views and give your opinion

Nowadays, it is not surprising to witness such amazing talents from people around the globe. In most cases, they are regarded as fortunate to be born gifted. However, there are also others who are born without natural talent yet still successful in learning it through dedication and hard work.

Extraordinary skills are commonly perceived as inherited gifts due to the fact that it is beyond the capabilities of an average person and it is deemed unattainable regardless of any means. This theory has been further supported by reports given by scientists confirming the relation of human characteristics and genetics. Meaning to say, almost all the time a child is bound to inherit a talent from his parents. An illustration of this is seen in the entertainment industry, wherein most children of popular singers or dancers end up having the same career with their parents when they grow up.

On the other hand, it is not the end of the world for those who are not born talented. There are several ways available in acquiring a skill desired, a common path is through rigorous training. This alternative requires strong willingness and in some cases experiencing pain may be unavoidable. In countries like China, they train children at a very young age to prepare them for international competitions. This may sound beneficial to both nation and individual but seeing the photos distributed over the internet, it is apparent that children are having a tough time.

In my opinion, it is true that talent can be naturally inherited. But for some, it is also possible to have the talent a person aspires even though he is not born with it, one just needs to work harder to develop it.

Writing Feedback / IELTS TASK1:Letter to complain about neighbor [3]

It would be great to receive your comments and suggestions. thanks.

TASK:Write a letter to your landlord complaining about problems you are having with your neighbours in the above floor.
include
- what problems are you facing
- what have done about them
- what would you like the landlord to do.

Dear Mr. Rogers,

How are you? I am writing you this letter to complain about the excessive noise made by my neighbors on the second floor. This incident has been reoccurring several times already for the past two weeks and it has caused me sleepless nights.

I am particularly referring to the tenants of room 204. I believe they are a group of college students from a nearby university. It all started last 22nd of March when I heard a noise comprising of loud music and people shouting. I recalled it was the end of term for most schools at that time so I presumed they were having a celebration. Even though it lasted till 2am in the morning, I was complacent about that matter because as a previous student I totally understand how happy they were. However, a couple of days after, I heard again loud noise and banging on the walls coming from their room. Despite my efforts of asking them a favor to minimize the disturbance this has still continued numerous times since then.

They have caused problems not only to me but to other neighbors as well. Therefore, I am seeking your assistance on taking the necessary action to stop this at once and it may be best to implement some house rules to regulate the guests and parties. I hope you will consider my request.

Yours sincerely,

Writing Feedback / IELTS TASK2:Spending leisure time with different and the same age group [4]

Please provide feedbacks on my essay. Appreciate your help. Thanks

TASK:People spend their free time among the same group as themselves. Whereas some people enjoy spending time with all age groups. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

People are social beings by nature so it is normal for them to seek the companionship of others. But, an interesting point to see is the variation on how people choose their companions, and among several aspects to be considered, age is the common one. Certain reasons are observed on why people spend their leisure time with the same age group as well as those who prefer to go with different ones.

Apparently, a person feels more comfortable around friends with the same age because they are more likely to have common interests such as hobbies and lifestyles. Thus, chances of being left out from these kinds of groups are low. Also, in games and sports, competing against someone at the same age level is believed to be fair as nobody has far more advantage in terms of experience and skills.

On the other hand, some people prefer to be with a different age group, in most cases older than them, because they believe it can help them improve their knowledge and skills. Firstly, an individual can gain a diverse perspective of certain things by listening to the stories and experiences of others who are at a different age level. Secondly, in playing a game regularly with players who are more mature and experienced, one is bound to adhere the techniques and skills of their teammates as well as their opponents. Thus, a person benefits from this by way of improving his skills.

In my opinion, it does not really matter much if you are in the same or different age group, either way could be beneficial to someone. I think what matters most is how you feel about being in the group, which one makes you happy and comfortable may it be during your leisure time or any other time.

Writing Feedback / IELTS TASK1:Complain letter about an online purchase [3]

thanks in advance for all your comments and suggestions...

TASK:write a complain about an online purchase you made, describe the item you purchased, what is the problem, then what you want them to do

Dear Sir / Madam,

I am writing to complain about an online purchase I made three months ago from your shop. I believed it was mentioned on your site that buyers will receive their goods within a month despite their location. Unfortunately, I haven't received mine until now.

I purchased a pair of Jordan Retro Shoes on April 28th as a gift for my brother's birthday. After a month of checking through online tracking, I was frustrated to see that my item was held at Hong Kong customs. This worries me so I decided to speak with one of your officers to inquire about the situation, her name is Ann Santos. She provided me an unclear explanation of the incident as further investigation still needs to be done. However, she did promise to call me once there are updates on my transaction. Since then, I didn't receive a call from her and tracking information still shows the same status as before.

After careful consideration I have decided to cancel this transaction and therefore I would ask a refund for the whole cost I have paid. Please understand that I tried to be patient with this matter. But I think the delay it caused me is apparently unacceptable.

Yours faithfully,
