Sample Answer

Music is one of the best things that have happened in this world. Its essence can be seen by the way it touches people’s hearts and invokes various emotions within. I am very fond of listening to music. I only listen to instrumental tracks when I work or study, as they help me concentrate, but while lying idle or driving, I listen to a wide array of songs from different genres.

These can range from rock to jazz, depending on my feelings and whereabouts. A song that has a very special meaning to me is “Under Your Scars” by a band named Godsmack. I heard it first while looking for an older song from the band last year. The genre is rock and is sung and composed by the band’s lead singer, Sully Erna. The song is the most popular out of the album “When Legends Rise”. Sully Erna is an internationally renowned artist who is immensely popular in the rock genre. His band is a commercially low-profile band, and I am a huge fan of it and the music.

The song is a rock ballad that invokes very strong emotions in my heart. It is about a person calling out his love and talking about their feelings and remembering the times when they were together. He urged his love on questions about things not going as planned. The lyrics are far more beautiful than how I show them, and I am in love with this song. I respect the singer from my heart and have been listening to this song every now and then ever since.

ANSWER-

I am really fond of learning new skills and add them to my skillset. One trait that I have developed over the period of time is public speaking.

When I was young, I remember I used to hesitate to talk to other students, raise my hand to ask doubts or read the lesson in front of the whole class. However, in grade 8th I had an amazing teacher. She used to teach us English. Her classes were full of activities. She used to make every student read one paragraph from a literature book daily in front of the whole class. Initially, I used to get nervous and anxious and did stammer a lot. But, later on with regular practice, I was able to speak fluently and confidently. I think that uncomfortable situation that my teacher put me in helped me to build my confidence.

Also, in our school every day one class was given the responsibility of conducting school assemblies. My teacher used to make sure that every student from our class was up on the stage and spoke with immense confidence. We also had many drama plays and theatre acts which further enhanced my communication skills. I believe that being a public speaker is an asset and one should definitely work on strengthening it. As it enhances one’s confidence and overall personality.

  • Why did you choose it?

public-transport Best IELTS Band 7 Coaching in dehradun

Sample Answer

Public transport is a medium of transport that is provided by a government or a private entity for the public. Highly convenient, reliable, and affordable as well, this medium of transport is a boon to millions of people worldwide. I also find it very beneficial, and it has proved to be of great importance time and again.

With so many people travelling from home to work, city to city, or interstate as well, it is important for them in order to commute from one place to another.

I personally find it to be a great service, as well as a blessing whenever any urgent task has required me to travel without a personal vehicle. There have been various instances wherein my car or motorcycle was not working, and I had to reach my workplace, or when I had to travel to another distant city and I couldn’t travel by car. One such memorable incident took place when I was in college. My summer vacations were about to end, and I suddenly fell ill. I could not use my car to travel due to fatigue, so I decided to take a bus. Reaching college was very important, so I booked my tickets and reached the bus station.

The bus started after a little while, and I sat down on my seat, looking out of the window. It was a very relaxed journey, as I did not have to drive, and I could eat snacks and read a book. I also had conversations with my fellow passengers and got time to look out at beautiful views from the window. Though I chose bus travel as I was ill, the amazing journey that I covered changed my perspective on bus travel as well. If I get a chance to travel by bus again, I would definitely choose it again.
