IELTS Writing TASK 2: Time management is the key to success

IELTS Writing TASK 2

Time management is the key to success.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Time is a precious resource that cannot be replenished once it is wasted. I firmly believe that it plays a significant role in achieving goals in one’s life.

To commence with, there are several benefits for managing time in life. One of the most prominent advantages of a well-structured schedule is that it considerably improves productivity and success. To elaborate this, it allows people to prioritise their tasks and finish them on time. Whenever individuals have their timetable or plan to accomplish their work, they can easily prioritise work as per their requirement or urgency of the work and allocate their time accordingly. For example, students who have a proper study plan can systematically complete their assignments on time and also do their revision as well. Therefore, time management is the backbone of a successful future.

Furthermore, another major merit is effective time management fosters work-life balance. This means when candidates postpone their work for tomorrow, that may lead to procrastination, and the task becomes a reason for stress. As that task is to be finished under immense pressure, it not only contributes negatively to people’s performance but also to their health. If people allocate their time mindfully or practically, they can concentrate better and devote their precious time to their family, friends, entertainment and social life. It will help to maintain work-life balance efficiently.

To recapitulate, managing time is crucial for success in both professional and personal life.

Cause and Solution Essay

It is difficult for people living in cities today to get enough exercise. Why is this the case? What can be done to solve this problem?

The amount of exercise that city dwellers get nowadays has reduced substantially in the past few years. This essay will discuss some possible reasons as to why people living in cities do not perform physical activities regularly and suggest solutions to this problem.

The first reason is that there is a shortage of designated areas for exercising in cities. Due to mass migration of people from rural to urban areas, cities have become overcrowded. Therefore, towns do not have enough space to accommodate the ever-increasing population, and public places are used by the government for constructing houses. As a result, people struggle to find places where they can exercise. Another reason is that people in cities are now busier than in the past. They work for long hours to make a living for themselves and their families. Hence, they have limited time after work to go to the gym or perform physical exercises.

Certainly, there are several ways to tackle this issue. Firstly, the government should provide more facilities to the public for working out, such as opening public parks, sports and yoga centres. Moreover, these amenities can be made free of cost and maintained properly in order to attract people. If more gymnasiums, public parks or yoga centres are provided to the public, people will definitely use them. Secondly, companies can construct a small area on their premises for performing exercise, where employees can work out after their working hours are finished. In addition to this, people should also prioritise their health over work and money and make small changes in their lifestyle. For instance, people can walk the stairs instead of using escalators or elevators.

To sum up, the lack of space and time are the main constraints that discourage urban dwellers from getting enough exercise. However, building exercising facilities and people’s own initiative can solve this problem.

IELTS Cue Card – A trip you took by public transport

IELTS Speaking Task Cue Card:

A trip you took by public transport.

  • Where did you have to travel and why?
  • What transport did you choose?
  • 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.

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.
