IELTS GT Writing Task 1: semi-formal xat
Semi-formal xat siz bir oz taniydigan, lekin yaqin do'stingiz bo'lmagan odamga yoziladi: menejer, uy egasi, qo'shni, o'qituvchi. Savol "Dear Mr Carver," yoki "Dear Ms Linden," kabi familiya bilan boshlashni so'raydi. Ohang hurmatli, ammo formal xatdan iliqroq: ba'zi qisqartmalar (I'm, I'd) qabul qilinadi, lekin jargon va haddan tashqari samimiylik bo'lmasligi kerak.
Qadam-baqadam strategiya
- Savoldagi ismni aniq ko'chiring: "Dear Mr Okafor," — ism (first name) emas, familiya (surname) va unvon (Mr/Ms).
- Birinchi abzats: qisqa xushmuomala kirish va maqsad. Masalan: "I hope you are well. I am writing about the building work next door." Qo'shni yoki menejerga "How are you?!" bilan uzoq kirish kerak emas.
- Har bir band uchun alohida abzats: muammoni yoki iltimosni tushuntiring, sabab va tafsilotlarni bering.
- Munosabatni saqlang: qo'shni yoki uy egasi bilan kelajakda ham muloqot qilasiz, shuning uchun shikoyatni tushunish va hamkorlik ohangida yozing ("I completely understand that...").
- Aniq taklif yoki iltimos bilan yakunlang va javob kutishingizni bildiring: "I'd be happy to discuss this in person."
- Yakun: "Yours sincerely," (ism ma'lum) yoki biroz iliqroq "Kind regards," + ismingiz.
Tuzoqlar va keng tarqalgan xatolar
- Familiya o'rniga ismni ishlatish ("Dear Mr Peter") yoki savoldagi ismni o'zgartirish — Mr/Ms faqat familiya bilan ishlatiladi.
- Ohangni noto'g'ri tanlash: menejerga do'stdek "Hey! Guess what..." deb yozish yoki qo'shniga sovuq rasmiy "I hereby inform you..." uslubida yozish.
- Qo'shni yoki uy egasiga ayblov bilan yozish ("You are very selfish"). Semi-formal shikoyat muammoni hal qilishga qaratilgan bo'lishi kerak.
- "Yours faithfully" bilan tugatish: ism ma'lum bo'lsa, "Yours sincerely" yoki "Kind regards" to'g'ri.
O'zbek tilida so'zlashuvchilar ko'p qiladigan xatolar
GT Writing bo'limida o'zbek tilida so'zlashuvchilarda ko'p uchraydigan holatlar:
- Ohangni aralashtirish: rasmiy boshlanib, «See ya!» bilan tugaydigan xat.
- Formal xatda qisqartmalar (I'm, don't) ishlatish — ular informal xatga mos.
- Uchta banddan birini tashlab ketish yoki unga bitta gap bilan javob berish.
- O'zbekcha xat odatlarini ko'chirish: uzun salom-alik va duolar o'rniga ingliz tilida xat maqsadi birinchi abzatsda aytiladi.

Namunaviy javob
Task: Your neighbour, Mr Okafor, is doing building work on his house, and the noise is causing you difficulties. Write to him: explain what the problem is, describe how it is affecting you and your family, suggest a solution that would suit both of you.
Dear Mr Okafor,
I hope you and your family are well. I am writing about the building work on your house, which I understand is part of your kitchen extension.
I'm afraid the noise has become quite difficult for us. Over the last two weeks, the drilling has often started before seven in the morning and continued until late in the evening, including on Saturdays. The walls between our houses are fairly thin, so the sound carries straight into our living room.
This is a particular problem for us at the moment. My wife works night shifts at the hospital and needs to sleep during the morning, and our son is preparing for his final school exams, so he finds it almost impossible to concentrate in the evenings.
I completely understand that the work has to be done, and I'm sure it will look wonderful when it is finished. Would it be possible to ask the builders to start at nine and finish by six, and to keep Sundays free? If that suits you, I'd be happy to discuss it over a cup of tea.
Thank you for your understanding.
Yours sincerely,
Arthur Bell
