IELTS Speaking Task # Cue Card historical period

Describe a historical period/time you want to know more about.
You should say:

which period it is

how you know about this period of history

what its importance is in history

and explain what you want to know more about this period.

SAMPLE ANSWER-

My country, India is quite recognized for its rich and prosperous history. One such historical period was the Indus Valley civilization that existed long back but its prevalence was recently revealed in the 1900s by an Archeological survey. It was believed to be the core of art and culture during those days.

When I first studied about this civilization in class and the planning of this period’s urbanization, it captivated me to a great extent. It was the first time that I took interest in history while learning about this time period. I learned that even in that era when there were limited resources available, the people of Indus Valley civilization enjoyed a highly developed city life.

This mysterious civilization was situated on the banks of the river Indus, the present day Pakistan. I think that it’s an important part of the historical culture as the town-planning and water management system which the people followed during that time is an excellent example for the modern world. Despite the absence of educational facilities, it is said that people who belonged to this time period had built well equipped sanitary facilities and harvesting system as well. When I further looked at the remains of artifacts of this civilization, I was actually convinced that citizens of this civilization led a comfortable and luxurious life.

I’m keen to learn more this time period and what led to its destruction. Though the town had well managed farming and architectural construction, archeologists are carrying on their research related to the specific cause of its disappearance. It is said that today’s world has a lot to learn about urbanization and administration from the remains of the Indus Valley civilization.

IELTS Cue Card # Describe a worth watching theatrical performance.

August 21, 2025 IELTS Research

IELTS Speaking Task Cue Card

Describe a worth watching theatrical performance.

You should say:

What the performance was about?

Where it took place?

How was the acting and quality of the production?

And explain why it was worth watching.

SAMPLE ANSWER-

Indian theatre is one of the ancient forms of the Asian theatre that has prevailed since centuries. The modern theatre of my country mainly consists of university drama communities that generally have a message to deliver to the spectators. The play that I watched was about a response to a violent gang rape and subsequent death of a student in 2012 in Delhi. This rape case shocked the whole country and people greatly sympathized with the victim and the family.

Recently, on my visit to Delhi, my cousin took me to attend a theatrical show that was being organized in his University. I was more curious to watch it when he told me about the theme of the play.

The play’s name was ‘Nirbhaya’ which symbolizes ‘fearless’ in Hindi. The play was written and produced by a renowned South-African playwright and the entire cast and backstage workers were Indian. This play mainly aimed to break through the silence among women who have suffered gender based violence. The quality of production and the whole performance was remarkable and it could easily be observed by the audience’s expression and applause.

I consider that this theatrical show was a thought-provoking one as it delivered the message of societal change that is much required in our community. It was a compelling depiction of the awful truth that an innocent student had gone through when she boarded a bus with her male friend in the busy streets of Delhi. The hard-hitting truth clearly shows that we could not be silent anymore. Lastly, it was the most powerful and emotional theatre play that I’ve ever seen.

IELTS Speaking Latest Cue Card – Favourite Advertisement

August 16, 2025 IELTS Research

Here is latest cue card question November 2016. ^{IELTS Band8 level answer}

Describe an advertisement that you really like. You should say:

which company advertisement is it?

what is it about?

why do you like it?

also, explain your opinion on advertisement industry.

IELTS Band7 cue Card FAVOURITE ADVERTISEMENT

SAMPLE ANSWER

Watching advertisements is my favorite time pass and I really get fascinated by the way they tell a complete story in just a few seconds.

This time it is an advertisement by Apple for the new MacBook Pro that has left me amazed. The ad begins with the burst of bulbs and for the next one minute, you see the entire evolution of human race and the bursting of bulbs happening. Both of these things happen in parallel so one gets curious as to what is the person trying to speak.

They take us right from the fire age to the internet and automation. So, when the last bulb burst, you see this black screen. On it is written, the machine where ideas are invented and you see the MacBook. Spellbinding and striking both at the same time. The reason that I really liked it is because they are not trying to see you something, they are just trying to say they are the best. Things like these motivate people and create a deep connect.

Advertisement industry in my opinion surely plays an important role in the sales of the product. With the social media booming and impacting lives, there is no doubt that it is not just about the product anymore. You surely can have a good one but if you don’t present it well, it is all gone!

money-as-a-gift Best IELTS Band 7 Coaching in dehradun

Sample answer

Gifting is a great idea that has been around since an eternity. It displays the ideology of giving someone something extra to show your affection towards them. It is a beautiful custom that spreads the beauty of togetherness and love for the people around us. I have come a long way in life and made many amazing relations on the way. I have often shown my gratitude and love to them by gifting as well.

After settling in a new city for a new job, I met a school friend of mine at a cafeteria. We had a long conversation and he told me he was married and had a young daughter as well. While leaving he also invited me to his daughter’s birthday celebration and insisted on my presence. I obliged by agreeing to come, but I was at my wit’s end while choosing a suitable gift. Since I did not know what would be suitable to gift, I gave it a long thought. I then simply put a sum of 3000 rupees in an envelope and left for the party. It was a grand occasion with smiling faces all around. The little girl was very happy to receive all those gifts.

I felt really good about my choice of gift, as the money is highly tangible, and the parents can decide what is best for her daughter. Basically, I have just given them a choice to decide what to buy for her, in a cordial manner. I can be at ease, knowing that she will receive an apt gift from my end, at the end of the day.
