IELTS Speaking Task Answer
E-mail or electronic mail is the modern and quick way to send messages. This is a very useful gift of technology. Here I would like to talk about a much awaited mail that I got recently. The mail was from the British Council.
I had booked the date for my IELTS exam and the date for the exam was approaching near with each passing day. I was waiting eagerly for the e-mail as from it I would be able to know the various details like the venue of the examination hall, timings, date of speaking exam and of course, the date of the result. My other friend, who had booked the date of the exam with me, got the email but I did not. This made me a bit jittery and nervous. At the same time, I had full faith in the working of the British Council and I was sure that the e-mail would arrive well in time.
Finally, when only five days were left for the exam, I received the e-mail. I felt very happy and relieved to see this mail in my mail box. This mail was important to me, as I have already said, it gave me the various details and aspects related to the taking of IELTS exam. Moreover, the IELTS exam was one step in the direction of fulfilling my dreams of going abroad. This explains why this e-mail was of utmost importance for me and also my restlessness till I did not get it.
