IELTS ACADEMIC WRITING TASK 1
The diagram below shows how an alarm clock helps you to get out of bed.
Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below.

SAMPLE ANSWER
The illustration highlights the five different stages involved in waking up in the morning when an alarm clock is used.
The flow chart starts when the alarm rings and begins the process of waking people in bed. If the alarm is loud enough to wake them and these people are also willing to get out of bed, then they will climb out of bed. However, if they are not ready to get out of bed, then a snooze button can be hit. If this action happens an average of three times, the pre-set delay ensures that the alarm will ring again after five minutes.
This gives the sleeping people an extra five minutes in bed before they have to get up. After the allotted time, the alarm rings again and they are again given the chance of either rising or having more time to snooze. If they decide to get up, they simply climb out of bed.
