7. IELTS Task 1 : "Map summary section"

Instagram: goldcoast_ielts

Web: goldcoastielts.com

In this podcast let’s check out how to create the final part of our task 1 – the summary section. Note that we call this a summary and not a conclusion because conclusion is strictly reserved for the final paragraph of a task 2. Ideally, we want to write two sentences for this part of our task 1. The first one should begin with “Overall” or “In summary” and the second sentence should begin with some sort of linking word or adverbial, most likely a comparative such as “However”.

Let’s keep using the map illustration from podcast 5 and write a nice summary for that. Here is the summary...

In summary, it can be clearly seen that the entire island was made more welcoming to tourists because of the addition of a wide range of touristic facilities. However, while this may result in greater income for local people, the environmental impact of these changes is more difficult to predict.

It could be argued that at 50 words this summary is about 10 or 15 words too long, but it is a very nice summary that accomplishes two goals. Firstly, it successfully summarises the main change in the illustration (sentence 1). Secondly, it adds a complex contrast in the second sentence to prompt the reader on to greater thought.

Try to use these techniques when you write your own IELTS task 1 summary!
