Ankush is like a scientist who loves exploring the deep ocean. I know him since past 5 years. He goes on cool trips to learn about underwater stuff and even found a new kind of jellyfish that glows! What’s awesome is that Ankush turns his backyard into a fun class where our kids can learn about the ocean and how to help take care of it. He talks about sharks, those colorful reefs, and what we can do to keep the oceans clean. You can tell he’s really excited about his job, and when he tells us about his adventures, it’s like we’re going on a cool journey too. So, having Ankush as our neighbor is like having a super friendly teacher and an explorer right next door!

The film generated immense excitement among the viewers but ultimately failed to impress the audience. The movie tried to blend action with a historical context.

CUE CARD -DESCRIBE A HOUSE OR APARTMENT YOU LIKE TO LIVE IN

You should say:

What is it like?
Where would it be?
Why would you like to live in this house/apartment?
How do you feel about this house/apartment?

Sample Answer

Home is where the heart is and having a own house is on the top of my bucket list. Ideally, I don’t fantasize about living in a house that is too spacious. Rather, I’d love to reside in an abode that allows me to have my peace of mind all day long.

Firstly, it will be a one-storied bungalow inspired by the design of the Victorian Era. I want my house to be on the slap bang of the city, surrounded by nature. The covered area should be 2000 sq. Ft and it would have 5 rooms with one master bedroom. Every room would have a balcony from where beautiful views of snow- covered mountains is visible. There should be enough empty space around so that I can have a perfect view of the mesmerizing surroundings.

Apart from this, I am really desiring that my house should be loaded with all sorts of mod cons. Including, a gym, a gigantic pool, a game Centre with a home theatre with recliners and a table tennis table to help me enjoy my time during my free time. At the top of it, I really desire a large L- shaped kitchen with a glass cabinet, dishwasher and a 12- seater dining table. Finally, in the open space there should be separate parking slots for the 4 wheelers.

I would love to reside in this apartment because it will be filled with all the comforts anyone could dream of. Besides, it would allow me to stay close to nature and far away from hustle and bustle of city.

Q2. Do young people in your country like to live with their parents or by themselves?

Answer. Mostly the younger generation in my country prefer to live with their parents as they provide constant support and guidance for their child. They do move out of their homes in situations where they have to pursue higher studies or if they have better career prospects outside in some other city or country.
