IELTS SPEAKING TASK CUE CARD : DESCRIBE A PERSON WHO HAS INTERESTING OPINIONS. Best IELTS Coaching in dehradun

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.

IELTS Cue Card – Describe a person you know who likes to talk a lot

Describe a person you know who likes to talk a lot.

You should say:

Who this person is?

How do you know him/her?

What he/she likes to talk about?

And explain how you feel about this person.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Some people can talk endlessly for many hours, and surprisingly, they never feel bored. On the other side, I am the type of individual who would prefer solace and speaking the bare minimum. At my workplace, I’m surrounded by many talkative individuals. Ritu happens to be one of them. She is my lovely colleague who has a pleasing personality. She is tall with a dusky complexion and possesses a beautiful smile.

Ritu is an absolute talker, so having her around will keep anyone entertained. She is not limited to any one subject to discourse on; rather, she is self-sufficient. Ritu has a lot of talents, but her sense of humour makes her the ultimate performer. She does stand-up comedy and completely nails it during our holiday meetings and business get-togethers. She can, however, occasionally become a bit annoying and challenging to manage. Ritu once received a severe reprimand from our manager for talking nonstop about the product at a meeting.

I believe she was making every effort to impress the clients, but she was unable to control her tendency to talk excessively. The client found too much information confusing and didn’t show much interest in our services. Fortunately, the deal was saved by one of our brilliant negotiators. I believe she has a kind heart, but sometimes her overly chatty personality gets her into problems.

STRONG WORDS

WORDS	MEANING	Sentence
Reprimand	To tell someone officially that he/she has done something wrong	The boss reprimanded his employees for being careless towards their work.
Nailed it	To skilfully/creatively complete a task	It was her first time performing in public, and I guess she nailed it.

Part 3 follow-up questions

Q1. What communication skills are important?
I believe verbal communication and the skill of confidently stating one’s opinion are very essential. Moreover, I would like to add the importance of being a good listener for having smooth communication in conversation.

Q2. What jobs need employees to be talkative?
Jobs related to sales and marketing require employees to be expressive and have the ability to convince people. Additionally, people working at radio stations, especially radio jockeys, are expected to be entertaining by cracking jokes and talking a lot.

Q3. Should children be encouraged to talk more?
Well, children should definitely learn to present themselves without being scared, and learning communication skills will definitely help them in the long run. What needs to be closely checked is knowing what to say and where to say it. Being a good communicator requires a person to know how much to say and how to convey their opinion without being rude or disrespectful.
