Cue Card

IELTS Cue Card – New Year Celebrations

June 26, 2026 IELTS Research One comment

With every ending comes a new beginning. The new year is the time when people try to forget their old ways and make resolutions to become better individuals. It is also the time when people party and often loose control. Apart from them, there are still so many people who do not understand the concept of New Year, that there is always hope in life. This time we are looking at sample questions that could be asked in the IELTS cue card section related to the New Year celebrations.

Describe a new year celebration that you still remember. You should say :

with whom did you celebrate?

what did you do in the party?

why is it so special for you?

Also, explain the importance of new year parties in your life?

SAMPLE ANSWER 1

I am 23 now and consciously attended around 12 parties. But I think the one party that I remember and cherish the most is the one we had in our first year of graduation. I had cleared a competitive exam, and during the new year our exams were going on. So, no question of going home. We all were feeling a little low, but at around 11 at night, we heard music. All of the students in our hostel wing came out only to find that our warden had organised a DJ and stuff to eat. He asked us all to join us. Overwhelmed by his gesture, we all went down and danced the whole night.

I remember dancing with around 400 people to songs I had never heard, in languages that I didn’t understand, but it was pure fun. We all became good friends after that and had a blast for the next four years of our graduation. I think the one reason I cherish it the most is because it brought with it a lot of new things for me. I met new people and did things I never did. Like, dancing like a serpent and then like a girl. We were purely enjoying ourselves. There was no senior or junior, just a bunch of people living the moment.

Although ‘party animal’ is not the word that I would choose for myself. But, yes, I do party on New Year. For me, it is the time when I meet all the people I know, the ones I care for. Most probably, go out travelling with them. I believe life is busy, and we should just grab every occasion that we get to enjoy.

SAMPLE ANSWER 2

New year celebrations have never been very exciting for me, but I remember the 2016 New Year. It was the best new year I had to date, and I assume it to be the best to date.

It was during the end of 2015 that there were a lot of personal and professional issues I was struggling with. For some reasons, I started feeling as if this is how life is going to be for a longer run now. Sitting on my couch when everyone else was partying, I remember crying and feeling really bad.

At around 11:30, a really good friend of mine, with whom I recently had a fight, dropped by me. She had been my school friend, and we had shared a lot of things together. Fighting with her did have an impact on me. She had beer with her, scooty keys, and we just left the home together.

When the entire world was partying outside, I remember feeling the air and then reaching our school terrace and drinking beer. We revived our memories together, things that we had done and how life had just changed in some years. How quickly we had grown up. There was nothing particular, but having that kind of talk actually rejuvenated me. It made things so much easier for me. Since that year, every year we meet at our school terrace for a bottle of beer and lots of memories together.

I think New Year parties are a good way of celebrating, and everyone should celebrate New Year, but I believe everyone should enjoy it in the way that best suits them.

Cue Card – Advertisement that you like

Advertisement that you like

Which advertisement is it?
Why do you like it?
What is the advertisement all about, and explain what message it conveys.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Earlier advertisements were rare and had only a certain simple message. Now we have a plethora of them – and some of them are even better than TV commercials. I think TV commercials add variety to the programmes because sometimes the programmes become very monotonous.

Recently, I watched a commercial for Mercedes, and I just fell in love with it. It is a lovely commercial. A 6-7-year-old boy is shown packing a bag and holding a map. He is then shown moving from place to place according to the map, as if he knows the place where he wants to go. He wanders from place to place and then reaches the showroom of Mercedes. He goes to the man in the showroom and says that he is lost, and the man says that this is the last time I am giving you a lift to the house.

And I felt so good. I mean, the boy was so innocent, and then he moves here and there and then very politely says that he is lost. I fell in love with the innocence of the boy, and the way the entire ad was shot felt fantastic. There was no message said, but it was felt, and I think that matters. The message that Mercedes is loved by all.

Cue Card

IELTS Cue Card – Childhood Skill

We all are the ultimate result of the skills that we learn. There are people who can paint well and, for that matter, some who can play games or write. And it takes the time to build those skills. Skills even as simple as typing can help people go a long way. This time let us have a look at a recent question asked in the IELTS Speaking section.

Tell us about a skill that you have learned in your childhood.

What is that skill?

How has it helped you in your life?

Did your teachers, parents played an important role in nurturing the skill?

Also explain, if you think learning can be done best when someone gives their heart into it or they are forced to do it?

SAMPLE ANSWER

The one thing that has really helped me in my life is my control of keys on the keyboard. I learnt to type when computers had yet not gained much momentum, and we really did not know that it would be of so much use in the near future. However, I really am thankful to my father, who helped me work on it. So, when other children were busy learning by writing things in their notebooks, I used to make my notes on the computer and get them printed.

The entire thing came back to me only when I took up a job as a blogger. When one is writing something, it is good to have the entire focus on what needs to be written rather than how it finally gets entered. My typing speed has not only helped me write better articles but also type them fast, giving room for more assignments and so more money.

Even more, being a coder, it is nice to have control of the keyboard. After all, it is a way by which you can actually interact with the CPU and get things done. Better control means things are done faster and there is less frustration over petty matters.

I believe children need to be exposed to all the new possibilities around them and then let them decide what they actually want. Even if they are indecisive, they should be allowed to try their hand at more than one thing. With time, they as well as teachers and parents will know the one thing the child will be best at.
