IELTS Speaking 2017 Questions # May 27

Questions asked in the speaking section change faster than probably seasons. The questions asked in 2016 are probably not the questions that will be asked in 2017. This time we bring to you some of the speaking questions that have been asked in the speaking section on May 25.

Q: Do you live in a house or a flat?

I live in a house facing north with two other families living in the first and second floor respectively. My rooms are on the ground floor along with the land lord’s room. The part of our house has two rooms along with a kitchen and an attached bathroom. It has been three months since we started living in here. Before this, we were living in shared accommodation. I like my study room because it’s small and there is less management required. I can very easily locate my books and study.

Q: What kind of house would you like to live in the future?

The view is the most important thing for me. When it comes to my house, I would like to live in a house with a lot of windows which allows enjoying the view outside. Outside of my apartment, it would be lovely if we have a beach or a view of the mountain. Probably, it would be so much better to be surrounded by nature all around us. I wish for a big house but the one that is expanded horizontally. It will be nice to have a few gardens at my house with a lot of plants and trees. I am sure such a facility might not be available in the middle of the city, but it would be nice if the house is not too far from the main city.

Q: What kind of jewelry you have?

I don’t own many golds or diamond jewelry. Probably, I don’t like putting on much of them. But I do love accessorizing my clothes with artificial jewelry. I have a dozen earrings. All that I have collected over a period of time. I do even own some hand wrist but not much of them either.

Q: Have you ever bought jewelry for someone else?

My mother is very fond of gold jewelry. She always had a desire for buying long earrings. However, because of certain reasons she never got a chance of buying them. It was during my college years and I got a stint at a writing company. Working for this company, was an amazing experience for me altogether. It was the first time that I got a salary and I recollect my mother shopping earring for my aunt. She wanted to gift an earring for her on her anniversary. So, buying we both got confused on two earrings. My mother loved both and so I gifted her the one she loved more. I could truly see a feeling of pride in her eyes and more importantly happiness. That gift surely made my day.

General Training Writing task 1: Complaint Letter Noisy Restaurant

IELTS Writing Task 1: Complaint Letter

You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.

A restaurant near your home is making a lot of noise. You called the manager but no action was taken.

Write a letter to the manager. In your letter

  • introduce yourself
  • describe the problems you are facing because of this
  • suggest solutions

Write at least 150 words.

You do NOT need to write any addresses.

Begin your letter as follows:

Dear Sir/Madam,

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am a resident at the MG Road, and the president of the residential association for the people living in and around the MG Road. My house is right next to your restaurant.

I am writing to bring it into your notice that we hear a lot of noise coming out from your restaurant. Loud music being played in the pub and people getting rowdy and creating ruckus after drinking is a common site these days at your restaurant. And it gets really loud, when it’s expected to be quieter.

To be honest, I am a bit disappointed. Before writing to you, twice I had a word with the manager of your restaurant. He told me that he will look into it for me but nothing happened. He turned a deaf ear, and I feel that was a bit rude of him to do so.

I would like to request you here to curb the sound post 2300 hours and maybe install sound proof glasses wherever necessary. As you know it’s against the law to play loud music between 22:00 and 07:00.

As well, would really appreciate if you could ask your clients to keep their voices to themselves, as they tend to get too loud after downing few pints and hire a few bouncers to keep the brawlers at bay. If everyone liked the same sounds, noise would not be a problem. What’s music to your ears, your neighbors might dislike.

Looking forward to a positive response and a speedy resolution of my concern. Thanking you, in anticipation.

Warm Regards

Dalpreet Kaur
