In the past few decades, the trend of consuming processed food has increased significantly. A delicious meal not only provides us a sense of gratification but also helps in our growth and survival. Some people are more interested in buying ready meals, whereas, others prefer freshly prepared food. In my essay I will discuss the merits and demerits of eating convenience food.

The predominant advantage of eating ready-made food is that they are highly convenient for the people who do not have time to cook. Moreover, the people who cannot cook feel blessed to have these ready-made meals available in the markets. We can not only consume them as and when we want, but can also store them for the future avail. Additionally, it is easier to carry them as they are properly processed and packaged to increase the ease of consumption. What is more, their nutritional value is also maintained by the manufacturing companies while processing.

As far as drawbacks are concerned, prepackaged foods generally contain a high amount of salt and added sugar. Moreover, a lot of chemical preservatives are used in order to keep them fresh and consumable. These foods often contain fat like unsaturated fat and trans fat in order to provide them longer shelf life. As a result, people often develop the risk of having diseases like diabetes, obesity, and high cholesterol etc.

To conclude, certainly, the processed foods can be a time-saving and a convenient option for the consumers. Nevertheless, they are still unhealthy. People should not compromise with their health for the sake of their time and comforts. In my view, ready-made meals have both their benefits and drawbacks, but the drawback of being unhealthy outweighs all benefits.

happiness Best IELTS Band 7 coaching in dehradun

Sample Answer

In this competitive world, the state of true happiness has become really difficult to achieve. Happiness has a different meaning for different people. In my opinion, some people struggle a lot to achieve happiness, whereas others are chronically happy, irrespective of the situation. This essay will explore why it is difficult to define happiness and what are the different factors influencing happiness.

As we know, different people have different levels of needs. These unsatisfied needs further stimulate an individual to act in order to satisfy them. Once the needs of a specific level are satisfied, an individual starts aspiring to move on to the next level needs. Fulfilment of needs leads to satisfaction which further provides happiness to a person. Therefore, we can say that happiness is a by-product of satisfaction. Since people perceive happiness differently; they find it difficult to quantify happiness. Moreover, happiness is nothing but a state of mind. For example, a highly affluent person may not be contented with what he has; on the contrary, a poor person can be happy while struggling for a day’s meal.

Similarly, there are various determiners of happiness. The first and foremost is a feeling of content. A person who has a feeling of a positive sense of discontent always remains happy. In other words, such a person is happy with his work and life but still aspires for more and more to learn and to achieve. The other factor is the locus of control or the key to happiness. A person is either controlled by the external factors, or he is capable of controlling them. As a result, his happiness is decided by the other people or things, not by his own mind. If people are able to control their minds, then they can control their own happiness, no matter what the circumstances are.

To conclude, happiness depends on our attitudes and perceptions. As far as we have the keys to happiness in our hands, nothing external in this world can affect the level of our happiness and satisfaction.

Sample Answer

Dear Madam,

I am writing to show my willingness to learn spoken English. While searching for a good English teacher, I saw your advertisement in a local newspaper dated on 02/02/18.You are highly qualified and have a rich experience in the same field.

Thereafter, I asked about you from one of my friends. He really praised you and your teaching methodology and motivated me to join your coaching classes.

I have recently joined a new marketing company. As a customer relationship executive, I have to deal with different types of customers. Some of them interact in regional language, whereas others prefer English. In that case, I feel nervous while dealing with the customers who speak in English.

I would like to ask about the fees, date of joining, and the timings of the classes. I would be highly obliged, if you could spare some time to teach me.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

Yours Faithfully

Sachin

Speaking Task 2(cue card): When you were disappointed with your performance.

Do your best and leave everything!! Well, although it sounds the perfect way of leading life, when you give your all, it often becomes quite challenging not to get attached to the results of our performance. Sometimes, we set our bars so high that failing to achieve them results in disappointment and depression in our lives.

Speaking Task 2

Tell about a time when you were disappointed with your performance.

  • Where and when you performed?
  • How you performed?
  • Why you were disappointed?

disappointment Best IELTS Band 7 Coaching in dehradun

Sample Answer

In today’s corporate world, our knowledge, skills and experience remain unrecognized, if we fail to work effectively and efficiently. No matter how efficient and hard working we are failing to produce the desired results in stipulated time results in losing credibility.

[PARA 1]

I work as a content writer in a marketing company. Like other jobs, my job also has some targets to achieve on monthly basis. Recently, my boss had given me a target of writing 50 blogs in a month along with additional responsibilities. Being new tot he company, it took me a while to multi-task between writing blogs and the additional task in my bucket list! Still, I was trying my best to perform better. While balancing my multiple duties and responsibilities, I forgot that sometimes, quantity matters more than the quality.

[PARA 2]

While, I was almost on the verge of meeting the deadlines, all of sudden, I fell sick and that too just before the month end. Unfortunately, I could not come to the office for two days .As a result, I could write only 30 articles which were way less than the expected numbers. Moreover, I had no justification for my unsatisfactory performance. As an extrinsic factor, my unplanned illness  perfectly played its role in my failure. However, I realized that I could probably manage my work effectively if I would have been more proactive and organised.

[PARA 3]

I felt so disappointed and disheartened because in spite of trying so ardently I could not achieve the monthly target. But as we know, every failure has a lesson to teach. So, due to this incidence, I had learned one thing for sure that the gap between the actual and the expected performance eventually decides our happiness and disappointment at workplace. Therefore, our actual performance should be equivalent or more than the expected performance to be an achiever. Then only we get rewards and recognition in all spheres of our life.
