IELTS Writing Task Two
In many countries today, people in cities either live alone or in small family units, rather than in
large, extended family groups. Is this a positive or negative trend?

It is true that cities (1) ………………….(be) seeing a rise in smaller families and one-person
households. In my opinion, this is a negative development. As families (2) ………………….(become)
smaller, the traditional family support network is disappearing, and this can have a negative
impact on children as they grow up. In a nuclear family or single-parent household, childcare

grandparents or aunts and uncles, busy parents must (4) ………………….(rely) on babysitters,

alone after school and during holidays. The absence of adult family members can mean that

Exercise 2. Read the passage below and fill in the blank with NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS
from the passage to complete the following sentences.

The Peace Corps


On March 1, 1961, President John F. Kennedy issued an order creating the Peace Corps.
Its mission was to promote world peace and friendship by providing qualified volunteers
to interested countries. Today it sends an average of 6,000 U.S. citizens abroad each year.
Volunteers live at a local level in their host countries. They are paid in local currency.
Each month they receive a small sum of money that covers basic living expenses, and
varies
with the local economy. ·For example, volunteers in Micronesia make the equivalent of
$300 per month, while those in Turkmenistan make $75. Most volunteers live with host
families. This is a great chance to learn the language and the culture.
For each month that they spend overseas, volunteers receive a sum of about $200. This
money helps them to get back on their feet in the United States.
Serving countries all over the world, the Peace Corps lives up to its promise as "the
toughest job you'll ever love." Volunteers do everything from teaching English to sharing
tips on growing food to providing preventive health care. However, the application process
to become a Peace Corps volunteer is very competitive. You must be a U.S. citizen, at least
eighteen years old, in good health, and willing to serve for two years. Nearly all volunteers
have a bachelor's degree in their chosen field, and about 18 percent have their master's or
doctorate degrees. Knowing a language, especially French and Spanish, helps.

1. What kind of U.S. citizens does the Peace Corps send abroad to fulfil its mission?
……………………………………….
2. What does the monthly payment in local currency to volunteers cover?
……………………………………….
3. Whom do the volunteers stay with in their host countries?
……………………………………….
4. What is the shortest time that volunteers can work for the Peace Corps?
