Cue Card

IELTS CUE CARD: Describe a problem you had while shopping online or in a store

Describe a problem you had while shopping online or in a store.

When it happened?
What was problem?
How it happened?
Was it resolved and how you felt afterward?

Answer:

As a human, finding problems or getting into problems is as easy to entertain themselves. So, whether I find a problem in something or problems find me, it shouldn’t be surprising.

Thus, talking about troubles takes me back to 2024, when I made a blunder while I was shopping online for the first time. During that time I saw a beautiful dress for my mother on Instagram, and I was intrigued. Subsequently, I decided that I had to buy that attire no matter what so that I could see attire no matter what so that I could see happiness in my mother’s eye. However, being a guy who had never bought anything online ran into big and frustrating trouble. By not consulting my sister or anyone, I clicked the option to buy and decided to make a payment of almost Rs 1,000, and then I had sealed my fate.

After 2 days, the dress was delivered at home, and no one except me was present to receive it. I thought that God wanted me to surprise my mom with that dress. I took the parcel and opened it, only to find a dusty old scarf inside the parcel instead of the dress. I was not only dumbfounded but also furious. I called the customer care of that site and swore to bring hell upon them if they didn’t refund my money. But the dilemma was now whether to tell my family or not and be wise enough. I decided to carry the secret to my grave. As a result, my family to this day has no idea of my blunder.

Although I got my amount back, my family didn’t find the truth, but the incident left a scar in my heart. Thus, the problem has now become an integral part of my distrust towards online shopping, which I believe and hope never goes away.

Cue Card

IELTS CUE CARD: Describe a horror story you know / heard from someone

Describe a horror story you know / heard from someone.

You should say:

What was the story about
When and where you heard it
And explain how you felt after hearing it

ANSWER:

Well, I think stories come across some kind of horror in our lives, and experience fear.

I remember that when I was in first standard, my music teacher narrated a horror story to my class in school during the music period. The teacher told us that it was based on a real event, and this event happened with his classmate. My music teacher narrated the whole story. Once his classmate Sumit stayed behind at school to do his homework. Sumit used to travel by bicycle on a regular basis. That day when he was coming home, Sumit came across an old lady who was standing on the roadside.

Sumit stopped and asked her if he could drop her somewhere; the old lady just nodded and pointed towards the road. Sumit agreed, and she sat behind him. After a while, Sumit asked some basic questions to the old lady; however, her reply was always just a “Hmm”. Sumit then asked her the exact location of where he needed to drop her; for a few seconds there was no reply. So, he stopped the bicycle and turned around, and he was shocked to see there was no one. Sumit was terrified, so he started cycling fast, but when he was just about to reach home, there was again the scary sound of the old lady saying “hmm”. Sumit threw his cycle and ran into his house.

Later, he got to know from a neighbour that an old lady had died recently in his neighbourhood. After that incident, Sumit never came back from school late.

Overall, after hearing this story, I was petrified, and I was not able to sleep alone for days. It made me feel that fear is like a fire that burns without flames.

Cue Card

IELTS CUE CARD: Describe a time when you felt embarrassed

Describe a time when you felt embarrassed.

You should say:

What kind of situation it was
When and where it happened
How it happened and why you felt embarrassed
And explain how you overcame the embarrassment

ANSWER:

Well, I believe that almost every person has a few embarrassing moments in their lives. At that time, we might feel upset about it, but later we may find the same situation funny. I do recall a few instances where I felt ashamed, but there is one particular incident that is still imprinted in my memory.

This happened when I was in high school. I vividly remember that I was once dialling my friend’s phone number, which I didn’t bother saving, as I used to call him daily. So, I called my friend Kevin, and after saying hello, I started talking about my day at school. Suddenly, Kevin cut me off and said I was talking to the wrong person. So, I asked him if he was Kevin’s friend, but I was surprised to know he didn’t know anyone named Kevin. I started laughing because I thought my friend was joking with me. So, anyway, I started blabbering about myself. After a few minutes I realised that someone was giggling from the other side of the phone and there was also no reply. I checked the phone number then, and I was extremely shocked to see that the last digit was actually wrong. So, I panicked and cut the call.

This incident stayed with me for a long time, as I felt really embarrassed that I was ranting to a stranger about my life. Later, when I told my friend Kevin, we both burst into laughter because, honestly, it was very hilarious. Basically, I didn’t do anything to overcome the embarrassment. I understood that it was a part of life.
