IELTS Cue Card – Describe an interesting place in your country that is not visited by many tourists

Describe an interesting place in your country that is not visited by many tourists.

You should say:

  • Where is this place?
  • What do you like about it?
  • How do you go there?

Sample Answer

India is a multicultural country with many beautiful tourist attractions. For a number of factors like location, ease of travel and popularity, some destinations remain less known. Uttarakhand is home to a few such places that are difficult to reach, as they are nestled deep into the Himalayan mountain ranges.

One such place is Deoria Taal, a lake situated on a hilltop near a village called Sari. Located at a distance of 250 kilometres from the state capital, Dehradun, it is a quaint lakeside place. I love its beautiful surroundings and breathtaking views. One can clearly see two of the tallest peaks in the Himalayan range from the viewpoint near the lake. The diversity of the flowers and the trees, coupled with the serenity of the water body, provides a soothing and calm environment for the visitors, making it an ideal spot for a weekend visit.

To reach the lake, visitors have to trek for about three kilometres. The nearby area is surrounded by dense forests on high peaks and is largely uninhabited. Moreover, Deoria is a freshwater lake with a grassy area next to it, making it perfect for camping in the lap of nature. Also, there is a lot of wildlife that comes to the lake to drink water. So, lucky visitors can enjoy the wildlife as well. Even though the lake is open throughout the year, summer is the best time to visit this place.

I have admired her since childhood, as she has always been extremely compassionate, dedicated and hard-working.

SAMPLE ANSWER
We all are, at some point in our lives, affected by the opinions of others. It eventually broadens our viewpoint and thinking process. The topic reminds me of our school’s psychology teacher whose influential opinions affected me the most. Her name was Ma’am Pooja, and she was quite admired among her students mainly due to her optimistic attitude towards life and the way in which she gave her personal suggestions and recommendations while teaching, making the students comfortable in any situation. Her cheerful nature was absolutely remarkable.

As I told you earlier, Ma’am Pooja was my psychology teacher at school, but she was also one of my closest friends’ mothers. With time, I started discussing my confidential matters with her. She taught me to keep a positive view towards life, and with her help and guidance, I was able to improve my confidence substantially.

This all started when once I went to visit my friend, and I had a low spirit that day regarding my choice of career. My parents wanted me to pursue my profession in chartered accountancy, while I was interested in photography. She guided me to speak to my parents about my passion in this field and gave me a brilliant idea of taking them to an international photography event that was being conducted in my city. This helped me change their perspective towards this profession. Since that day, I constantly take Ma’am’s advice related to many things without hesitation. I’m extremely grateful for her guidance, because of which today I’m a widely known photographer in my country. Had I not followed her advice, I wouldn’t have achieved what I have so far.

IELTS CUE CARD: One problem faced by almost every large city is traffic congestion

One problem faced by almost every large city is traffic congestion.
  • What do you think the causes are?
  • What solutions can you suggest?

 Ielts band 7 road traffic

SAMPLE ANSWER

Nowadays, traffic congestion has become a major concern in many cities across the globe. This essay will discuss the reasons behind this problem and suggest possible measures that can be implemented to handle the situation.

One of the major reasons is that the ownership of vehicles has increased in the past few years, which leads to a soaring number of automobiles on roads. Secondly, in many cities the infrastructure for public transport is not fully developed, and it is not available for the entire day. Due to which people prefer to use private vehicles over public transport. Thirdly, many cities around the world are not built with proper planning, and also there are narrow roads which obstruct people from commuting.

Certain measures can be taken to deal with this situation. Firstly, the government should increase the quality of public transport by providing frequent services. In addition to this, fares of government transportation should also be reduced in order to promote it. Another measure is to construct wide roads and bridges so that traffic can move smoothly during peak hours. Furthermore, separate cycle lanes should be constructed, and people should be encouraged to ride bicycles. Finally, major city centres or crowded places of the city must be declared car-free, and fines should be imposed on those who do not follow the rules.

To sum up, by developing public transport and making rules stringent, the problem of traffic congestion can be reduced to a great extent.

Traffic-related questions – Speaking

Traffic is a common topic for the IELTS speaking part as well. Here are some questions to look at.

Q1. Are traffic jams common in your country?

Indeed, in many Indian states, traffic congestion has grown to be a major problem. Since there are more automobiles on the road, there are more accidents and traffic congestion problems. The main Indian states with the worst traffic problems are Delhi, Mumbai and Calcutta.

Q2. What can be done to improve traffic-related issues in your country?

I think the government should strictly enforce the laws regarding the number of automobiles allotted to each individual. People also need to be informed about traffic rules and guidelines.
