Cambridge 13 Writing Task 1 Test 4 - Sample Answers (Band 9 to 4-5)

The diagrams compare the current layout of a university sports centre with the planned layout after redevelopment.

Overall, the redevelopment involves significant expansion and improvement to nearly every facility at the centre, most notably the addition of an entirely new gym and a substantially larger swimming pool, while the existing sports hall is the only major feature left largely unchanged.

The most striking change is to the swimming pool, which will be extended from its current 25 metres to a full 50 metres, alongside larger changing rooms that will be relocated from beside the pool to a more central position within the building. The sports hall, by contrast, will simply be retained and refurbished rather than expanded, remaining the one constant amid substantial change elsewhere.

Several entirely new or considerably expanded facilities are also planned. A gym and fitness suite, currently absent altogether, will be added on the upper floor, the cafe will be enlarged with additional seating, and reception will be extended into a larger waiting area. Outdoor provision will also improve considerably, with the current two tennis courts replaced by four courts including a basketball court, and the car park, currently limited to the front of the building, will be extended to the rear to accommodate the centre's evidently increased capacity.

The diagrams show the current layout of a university sports centre and how it will look after redevelopment.

Overall, almost every facility at the centre will be expanded or improved, with a new gym being added and the swimming pool becoming much larger, while the sports hall stays mostly the same.

The swimming pool will change the most, growing from 25 metres to 50 metres, and the changing rooms will move from beside the pool to a more central location and become larger. The sports hall, on the other hand, will only be refurbished rather than made bigger.

Several other facilities will also be added or expanded. A gym, which does not currently exist, will be built on the upper floor, and the cafe and reception areas will both become larger. Outside, the two tennis courts will be replaced by four courts, one of which will be for basketball, and the car park will be extended to the rear of the building instead of only being at the front.

The diagrams give information about a university sports centre now and how it will look after some changes are made.
