IELTS CUE CARD #DREAM COLLEGE/ UNIVERSITY

February 23, 2022 IELTS Research

IELTS CUE CARD #DREAM COLLEGE/ UNIVERSITY

Describe your dream College/University.
You should say:

Where the College/University is?

What attracted you to this College/University?

What courses are you interested in?

and explain why you feel this College/University would be a dream to attend.

Sample Answer:

The University of my dreams would surely be the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. Also previously known as Ingolstadt University. As the name itself suggests, this University is located in Munich, the capital of Bavaria state, Germany.

The chief allure for me is the region and language. You see, I spent a significant portion of my childhood in Germany. For me, there is nothing more beautiful than the German language and especially the culture that it promotes. And I am very lucky in that aspect; I can choose to enter the German taught or English taught courses as per my preferences.

Furthermore, this University specializes in the sciences. Besides being a science student myself, I know for a fact that few can compete with LMU’s excellence and education standards.

Likewise, another draw to this University, in particular, is its previous alumni. Namely, the 42 Nobel laureates that graduated from this very Institution. Not to mention the fact that the grounds can be dated back to 1472, which is just fascinating to think about. I can not even imagine walking the same hallowed halls as my idols!!

As for courses I am interested in, the “Bachelor of Sciences in Computer Sciences” sounds right up my alley. It is a three-year undergraduate degree course in Computer Science itself. In which I would learn about the fundamentals of computer science in theoretical, practical and application-oriented point of view.

Thus indeed, I do truly believe this University is the perfect choice for me. It is highly ranked with a significant international student ratio. Further, the faculty is world-renowned and the results truly do speak for themselves as well. With that in mind, it also helps that the school is state-funded, meaning it has ample opportunities for scholarships.

In the above, I have illustrated my reasons for believing LMU to be my dream university and the course I would want to avail.

IELTS speaking task Cue card # Describe a book that influenced you?

February 19, 2022 IELTS Research

IELTS speaking task Cue card

Describe a book that influenced you?

What that book was?

How you first heard of the book?

What is the main story of the book?

Why this book is important?

SAMPLE ANSWER

The book /novel that had a major impact and developed my interest in reading is ‘Wuthering Heights’ by Emily Bronte. It was published in 1840s, (1847 to be precise).Though many readers thought of it as a disturbing and a novel full of contradictions, I personally enjoyed every detail of it.

There’s a popular saying that there’s no friend as loyal as a book. Being a person of impatient and restless nature, I had the habit of not completing any book I started reading. It was when a teacher of mine recommended us to read the ‘Wuthering Heights’ while she was discussing about the Bronte sisters and Jane Eyre at a seminar.

The book is about a powerful love story of Heathcliff and Catherine, but it is very different from a typical love story as it follows the self-destructive way of Heathcliff and his vengeful nature due to his unrequited love for Catherine. The subject of revenge, envy, gender inequality clashes between social classes predominate the book. The novel also incorporates gothic and supernatural elements like the appearances of ghosts. Moreover, physical violence and abuse are also present in most part of this book.

The reason why ‘Wuthering Heights’ plays such a significant role in my life is that firstly, it is written by a female writer during those days when it was considered unethical for a woman to pen down her thoughts especially when the novel is autobiographical. Secondly, after reading this book my perspective towards English literature changed completely and I developed a keen interest in reading as well.

OTHER OPTIONS-

‘The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari’ was written by Robin Sharma in the late 1990s. It is a quite popular book among the youth of my country (India). In this book the author talks about different methods of achieving success in one’s life. It includes- cultivating one’s thoughts, being clear about one’s purpose in life, facing one’s fear, discipline and time management as a key to success. In the book, the author sells his mansion and Ferrari in order to head to the Himalayas to attain wisdom and knowledge.
‘I Have A Dream’ is another Indian book authored by Rashmi Bansal in which the author illustrates the lives of twenty people who were social entrepreneurs. These people aimed to bring contentment and happiness in other’s lives. These social workers worked for the betterment of our society. It also shows that individual has the capacity to take up an issue and make this world a finer place to live in and highlights the power of determination.

DIFFICULT WORDS-

CONTRADICTIONS– a combination of statements, ideas, or features which are opposed to one another.
VENGEFUL– seeking to harm someone in return for a perceived injury.
UNETHICAL– not morally correct.
UNREQUITED– (for a feeling, especially love) not returned.

IELTS Cue Card # Describe a happy day you would like to have. Best IELTS Band7 coaching in dehradun

SAMPLE ANSWER-

As I belong to an Indian village, there are many amenities that lack in the rural areas of my country. There is a high mortality rate due to insufficient health care facilities. Last year, I witnessed a close relative pass away in front of me while giving birth. It was extremely heart breaking for me and my family and I took a decision to set up adequate and low-cost health care facilities in my village. And the day I will be successful with my scheme, it would be a special day in my life.

I would like to bring free of cost health checkups and basic medical resources so that people of my village do not have to face the loss of their loved ones due to financial problem or lack of amenities. I would also like to train locals to conduct deliveries and care for new- born at low cost.

It’s my dream to introduce trained doctors in my village and get the hospital inaugurated by my family members. This would make not only my family but the fellow villagers proud and relieved of problems they face due to the absence of professional assistance.

The feeling of doing something for your loved ones is indescribable. The people in my village are too innocent and gullible. Due to which many cunning doctors and medical staff try to trick them by taking advantage of their illiteracy. I would feel contended if they are provided with the right information and assistance regarding their illness and they’re not misled by anyone.

IELTS Cue Card # A leisure activity you have done with your family. Best IELTS Band 7 Coaching in dehradun

SAMPLE ANSWER-

Spending Sundays together has always been a tradition in my family. We engross ourselves in different leisure activities like playing card, going out for a picnic or watching a movie together. But last month, we thought of trying something different. My mother planned to bake a cake for an evening get together, on the occasion of my grandfather’s birthday. The only condition was that every member of the family has to contribute.

As we’d decided to bake a cake, all my family member including my mother, father and brother were assembled in the kitchen. As none of us knew the recipe of a chocolate cake, my mother assigned tasks to everyone.

As I told earlier, the main reason behind baking a cake was my grandfather’s 70^th birthday. And it was a small surprise since he always favored family bonding and learning new skills collectively. So we initiated and I made the batter of the cake. My brother was given the responsibility to make the icing and decorate the cake whereas my father had to do the dishes. My mother acted as a supervisor.

Though the cake did not turn out to be that great, it was an enjoyable activity. We sang songs, recalled old memories and cherished the time with my family. On the whole, it was a wonderful experience and I look forward to spending more relaxing time with my close ones.
