Sunny Goyal
In part 1, only one word or number is used, so how can we write the answer to question number 4 "2 weeks"? Kindly resolve my issue and clear my doubt.
IELTS Mentor
The question instruction says "Write ONE WORD AND/ OR A NUMBER for each answer.", which means you have to answer using one word, but you can use a number in addition to that. This is why '2 weeks' is correct but 'two weeks' is not. Explanation: '2 weeks' = one word AND a number, but 'two weeks' = two words.

Does it matter if I write "two weeks" instead of "2 weeks"? I get confused by this because, in some answer keys, it spells the number but in some, it doesn't?
Anything you write 2 weeks or two weeks, it is 2 words but instruction says only word/number. Sometimes I have a doubt about answers suggested by this website.
It says one word "AND/OR" number. Hence '2 weeks' is correct as it has one word AND one number but 'two weeks' is wrong as it has 2 words.

Farrukh
Hi Abhie, I also wrote this, but I think we should write concerts because live music is sort of concerts.
Farrukh
Yes, it should be download from... or the departmental store can be correct if the internet is given with separate bullet point.

jean lasay
Should be age groups. I answered age groups. The student told the other one that most of his music is the same with his female friends. So they agreed to use "age group" instead of the gender.
Jean Lasay
Yes, should be downloaded from here. It won't make sense if "Department stores from the internet?"
Jean Lasay
