Hi Simon,

excuse me, Simon
where does this kind of writing appear? part1 or 2?
another question I wanna ask u though it's not related to this lesson, if i want to express that i prefer A to B because A has more or better advantages, should I write:" the advantages of A overweigh (or Prevail) those of B"?
Thank u a lot :) have a nice day :D

Hi Simon,
Nice letter.
Just have a query. Which one is correct?
"with regard to" or "with regards to"
Thanks.

Hi Akai,
It's task 1 in the general training writing exam.
'The advantages of A OUTweigh...'
...
Hi Venkat,
I'd use the singular. My dictionary has the singular too.

Hi, Simon,
Thank you very much for your work on this blog. I passed IELTS with results desired, which is 8 in total. 8.5 for listening, 8 for reading, 7 for writing and 8.0 for speaking. I appreciate your effort especially on writing task two, which helped me a lot! And I used some of your words in one of your example for general writing task 1! I want to thank you again for your great job!
Best regards,
Yuan
