Line graph production of paper, wood pulp and sawn wood in the UK

Sample Answer:

The linear representation provides information about the production of three forest materials, namely, paper & packaging, wood pulp and sawn wood in the UK for 21 years, between 1980 and 2000. The data are measured in million tonnes.
Overall, what stands out from the graph is that the production of paper & packaging witnessed an increase, whilst it declined in the case of wood pulp and sawn wood in 2000 compared to the initial years’ figure.
Looking at the details, the production of paper & packaging was the highest of all three materials in 1980 and accounted for approximately 235 million tonnes. Later, the figure rose modestly till 1990 to exactly 250 million tonnes, then skyrocketed to 300 million tonnes in 2000.
By contrast, a significant difference of around 30 million tonnes can be observed in the production between wood pulp and sawn wood, whose individual production stood at nearly 170 and 200 million tonnes, respectively. Surprisingly, in 1990, the production of both materials was identical. Meanwhile, in 2000, wood pulp outraced sawn wood in terms of production.

IELTS Cue Card # Talk about a recent experience when the internet solved your problem? Best IELTS Band 7 Coaching in dehradun

SAMPLE ANSWER –

The internet is an essential part of survival in the present-day world. It has been a lifesaver for me numerous times, but here I can recall a time when the internet helped me handle a bad situation. I have the habit of keeping all the important information on my phone instead of my laptop. Last week, when I was busy studying for my exam, all of a sudden my phone’s screen froze, due to which I wasn’t able to make any calls or check my notes.

I panicked, as it was quite late at night, and I couldn’t head to the market to get some professional help. My phone included all important recorded lectures and notes. I lost hope and had pessimistic thoughts in my mind regarding my exam. I started searching for a temporary solution to fix my iPhone. There were some solutions available on sites, and I followed the steps in order to try my luck.

I followed the instructions given and connected my phone to the computer. It asked for a software update, and I thought of trying it, as I didn’t have any other option since all my important information, including my admit card, was in my phone. It nearly took two hours to complete the update and reboot my iPhone.

Luckily, the phone restarted, and I felt a sign of relief at that hour. Though we keep on criticising the internet and technology on a daily basis, during that moment I couldn’t be thankful enough to them.

Feel free to call for suggestions and queries.

Cue Card # A time when you didn’t share a truth with your best friend. Best IELTS Band7 Coaching in dehradun

SAMPLE ANSWER –

Trust is considered to be an important tool in one’s friendship, which takes time and diligence to rebuild if lost. Here, I’d like to talk about a time when I tried to conceal a secret from a friend, which had a bad effect on our friendship. The scenario happened quite a while ago when we were in university. It was during our results when I tried to keep my best friend’s poor grades confidential, as she was enjoying her cousin’s wedding at that time.

As far as I remember, most of my friends were worried about their performance in the exams, but my best friend had a different level of excitement since it was her relative’s wedding within two days. Though she was equally nervous about the results, she didn’t let her fear come between her happiness. When the result was declared, all of my friends cleared the exams with flying colours, but unfortunately, my best friend’s result was not up to expectations.

I decided not to inform her about the result on a call, as it might affect her joyful state of mind about the wedding ceremonies. But unluckily, she got this bitter news from one of our classmates. She was deeply affected by it, as those results were going to have a major impact on our placements.

Initially, this situation jeopardised our friendship, and people tried to create misunderstandings between us. But after a couple of days, she considered my point of view and tried to look at it from my position. We later apologised and promised to never hide the truth from each other, no matter how bitter it would be.

Feel free to call for suggestions and queries.

IELTS Speaking Task Cue Card – Describe a thing that has become a matter of status nowadays.

IELTS Speaking Task Cue Card

You should say:

What is it?

Why people use it?

Do you have it?

and explain what influences it has on people nowadays.

Describe-a-thing-that-has-become-a-matter-of-status-nowadays IELTSBAND7

SAMPLE ANSWER –

Throughout time, the possession of certain items has been linked to achieving a higher status, such as having a car. The ownership of expensive car brands indicates financial superiority and marks an image in the minds of the people in the society. Therefore, in this materialistic world, people of different cultural and financial backgrounds want to have a four-wheeler.

In some countries, the majority of people cannot afford a car, but with the emergence of options like car loans and the availability of second-hand cars, everyone enjoys this privilege. Millennials today believe in giving a ‘good impression’ to others, because of which they urge their elders to invest in fancy and the latest models. Possessing a car has its own convenience and comfort, which also comes with some liabilities like maintenance and environmental concerns.

Of course, my parents do own a car, but I still prefer taking public transport in order to avoid the traffic on the congested roads of my country. Not everyone thinks the same way.

All in all, the utility of a car is replaced by the image and status symbol that it offers. With the booming economy and stagnant car prices, more and more people are getting influenced to purchase a car in the future. However, people consider ownership of an expensive four-vehicle equivalent to a luxury. In addition, in the period of conscious environmentalism and hefty fuel prices, people must be more concerned about the pollution it causes rather than their own image and status.
