概要 In the IELTS test, Task 2 in the writing section should be of great importance to test-takers; Task 2 contributes twice as much to the final writing band score as Task 1 (IELTS, n.d.). How can test-takers successfully compose essays for IELTS Task 2? In response to this question, this presentation will uncover essential elements to successfully write essays for this task. The presentation will (1) demonstrate analytical approaches based on move analysis (Swales, 1990; Henry and Roseberry, 2001); (2) share findings from analyzing 20 model essays in the IELTS workbook, Cambridge Practice Tests for IELTS; and (3) suggest an effective essay structure and linguistic features, including grammatical and discourse choices. It is expected that the results of this analysis will allow educators to comprehend elements for composing successful essays, and will help them design an effective IELTS writing course.
