Describe Something You Do To Keep Your Mind Sharp.

You should say:

What is it?

When did you learn about it?

Are there any additional benefits of learning it?

How often do you do this?

Sample Answer

Having a healthy body and a strong mind is desirable for everyone. People do surfeit things to keep their brains robust. From eating a nutritious diet to consulting experts, a plethora of options are there to indulge people. One thing that I believe has been most helpful is solving a Rubik’s cube. Solving this puzzle takes a lot of concentration. There are a quintillion ways to decipher this complex game. I learned about Rubik’s cube from my math tutor, who used to help me out when I was studying in high school. Learning to solve a Rubik’s cube takes a lot of patience and strong will.

It requires a lot of time, but inevitably, it is truly rewarding. I was not doing so well at studies in high school, but after my curiosity about solving this puzzle turned into a hobby, I improved my memory and level of patience significantly. In the beginning, I used to solve it daily, but with life getting busy, I still do this at least twice a week.

Describe A Website Which Helped You To Do Something/ Website You Visit Often/ Use Regularly.

You should say:

Which site is it ?

⁠How did you know about it ?

How it helped ?

Why do you visit it often ?

Sample Answer

In this era, there are a plethora of websites that we use nowadays. These websites are advantageous for us. Today I would like to talk about a website that I often use.
The website that I frequently visit is Diksha.com . It was introduced to me by my colleague during covid time. It provides a wide variety of educational courses for teachers. At the time of COVID 19, it was important for the teachers to keep themselves updated and to conduct online workshops for students. This website was programmed by the government of India and it consisted of numerous online courses .

The best part was that after the completion of the course you even get a certificate which was government approved. I did many courses from that website and it proved to be beneficial. It even had a course on AI which was the need of the hour. Courses such as human well being, environmental safety, child well being proved to be exquisite. I use it a lot. There’s always some new content to look at. And this website has been extremely helpful to me in gaining knowledge and always learning something new.

Part 3 Follow-Up Questions

Q.1 What are the most popular and least popular apps in your country ?

I think it’s nearly the same all over the world. The most popular ones would be social media apps like Facebook and Instagram. If I talk about least popular apps I would say Mozilla Firefox is used less these days as people usually use Google as a search engine.

Q.2 Are libraries still beneficial? Why or Why not ?

Libraries are much more than a place with some collection of books. It is a place which provides a calm environment and thus, helps a person to concentrate on their work rather than getting distracted by social media over phone.

Q.3 Can internet help children in their study ?

Yes, definitely. The internet is a vast ocean of knowledge if used in the correct way. Internet provides a wide range of educational sites which could prove to be beneficial.

Q.4 What is the difference between the internet and TV ?

I would say the main difference here would be of choice. One can easily select what to watch or read over internet as compared to TV.

IELTS Cue Card 2024: DESCRIBE A SKILL YOU ARE GOOD AT.

Describe A Skill You Are Good At

You should say:

Where did you learn it from?

How do you benefit from it?

Are you getting better at it?

Have you taught it to someone?

Sample Answer

People develop special abilities to do something with enough practice. I have the capability to do many things, but something I am very good at is driving. As a child, I used to enjoy rides with my father, and I was always curious about how he did it. I wanted to learn to drive from my father, but he always told me to wait till I was old enough. The minimum driving age for a two-wheeler in my country is sixteen, but I couldn’t wait long enough. Once, my friend, who was allowed by his parents to drive, gave me a chance to get my hands on the steering wheel.

I was a bit nervous initially, but once the car started to move, I was thrilled. My father did help me get better at it and also helped me get a driving license. There are a lot of advantages to knowing how to drive. I save a lot of time when I take my own convenience to any place. Once, I drove my neighbor’s car when they needed to get to the hospital urgently.

I would say I am getting better at it because now I can drive for longer hours with fewer stops in between. Driving on steep turns on mountainous routes is not that complicated for me now. I also assist my father on long journeys during a family trip.
I did teach driving to my younger brother. It takes a lot of patience to teach something to a complete beginner. I am hopeful that he will be of help to others, and I also keep giving and taking driving-related tips.

Part 3 Follow-Up Questions

Q.1 How do people learn skills in your hometown?

People generally learn skills from someone in their social circle. If the skill is for day-to-day use, like cooking, it is learned from a family member. Social skills are mostly learned through classmates and friends. For more profession-related skills, people prefer an educational institution.

Q.2 How do people become good at a skill?

I believe learning any kind of skill takes a lot of dedication and hard work. Be patient with yourself and learn a little at a time. Enough repetition can make you an expert i. The real key to becoming a master of your skill is to keep coming back to it from at regular intervals.

Q.3 What kind of skills are important to learn for every individual?

I think skills such as time management, managing finances, building rapport, and social adaptability are necessary to learn. In today’s modern era, computer skills, interpersonal skills and stress tolerance are vital to learn.
