IELTS Speaking Task Cue Card:

Talk about a language that you would like to learn apart from English.

 

• What is the language?
• Why do you want to learn it?
• What benefits will you have from it?

Sample answer

People have come a lot closer in modern times. Migrating and visiting places has become very easy. Trade and exchange between countries have developed drastically, and languages play a very important role in such processes. Even though people have a few common communication languages that are spoken worldwide, it is always good to learn a new language. It can not only have a lasting impact on the native speakers but develop one’s intellect as well.

It is proven that people speaking more languages are more adept and have better personalities than people who don’t. I keep visiting new places, and I have been fascinated by a lot of different languages. I wish to learn most of them, but the most fascinating language that I wish to learn is Arabic. It is a beautiful language that is spoken in Middle Eastern countries such as the U.A.E, and Saudi Arabia. I heard it during my time in Dubai, and I wish to learn it with best efforts. It is a highly efficient language with a comfortable rate of speech. It is beautiful in its own way, whether it is the written words or spoken ones.

The songs and poems are equally enchanting and are great to listen. This language aptly represents the Islamic culture and traditions to their best and showcases the beauty that lies within that world. I wish to settle down in Dubai after my retirement and wish to be able to better communicate with the natives in order to adapt and fully comprehend their amazing lifestyles. This is the reason behind my idea to learn Arabic.

Modernization is the talk of the town and there is no denying that with globalization and internet walking its way into our daily lives, there are changes all over. More shops are being opened and the way business works has changed the dynamics all together. This time we will be looking at an IELTS Cue Card that talks about a recently opened shop.

IELTS Speaking Task Cue Card

Describe a shop that recently opened in your city.

• What is the name of the shop?
• Where is it located?
• Did you buy anything from the shop?

Sample Answer

I live in the main area of my city which is also the center of various shopping malls. On top of it, new shops keep opening every now and then. Sometimes I visit them to see what they have to offer or may be buy anything of need. Recently a famous brand, Lenskart opened up its chain in our city.

The store deals with eye wears and is opened in the most prominent shopping mall of our city, the Amanora Mall. It offers lenses, sunglasses, spectacles, glasses and frames to suit everyone’s requirements. The store is very spacious with the entrance wall made of all glass and is flush with the glass door and the remaining walls have intricate displays lined with different frames and accessories in an orderly manner. The frames and glasses are displayed by brands, sizes, and designs. The center of the showroom contains another centerpiece lined with more glasses and frames on display. Lying next to it are a few chairs for elderly people who might visit. Behind the billing counter on the far side, they have an elaborate eye testing machinery setup. The staff is trained and conduct free eye tests for everyone with dexterity.

I went to visit the store two days ago, with my sister. She wanted a new pair of glasses, so we went, browsed, and she chose a pair of stylish rimless glasses. While she was browsing, the store offered me a free eye check-up, and I went in to get it done. The staff is cordial and jolly, and we spoke to them while my sister got the billing done. If in future I need any eye wear, I will definitely visit there again.

IELTS Speaking Task Cue Card:

Talk about a medicinal plant that is useful.

• What is the name of the plant?
• What does it look like?
• Where does it grow?
• Why do you find it useful?

Sample Answer

Nature has been the primary resource for fulfilling all kinds of basic human needs. It is also highly beneficial due to its applications in healthcare. There is a wide variety of trees, shrubs, and plants that offer various health related benefits. Some plants are rare, while some are very common, and are found everywhere in a particular region, such as tulsi.

One such common plant is Azadirachta indica, commonly known as neem plant or Indian lilac. Neem is a fast-growing, evergreen tree, and reaches a height of 20 meters. The branches are long and wide, with toothed, pinnate leaves. It has white and fragrant flowers, and small, olive like, drupe shaped fruits that are bittersweet in taste.

The neem plant is native to the Indian subcontinent, and not only does it survive, but also thrives in less water. Furthermore, it can grow in different kinds of soil, and is a tropical or subtropical tree. This plant can resist high temperatures, but not very low temperatures. Furthermore, it can be found almost everywhere in India, growing in gardens, temples, parks, roadsides, and other public places. Known for its thick foliage, it is grown for its shade in different outdoor seating areas.

I find it very useful due to its long list of usage possibilities and medicinal benefits. The leaves are used in cooking different vegetables, salads, and pickling. Neem is highly beneficial and possesses many medicinal qualities. Its leaves are used to cure skin diseases, and the oil is used to keep healthy hair, for improving liver function, blood detoxification, along with balancing blood sugar levels. Neem twigs are used as natural toothbrushes and tongue cleaners. It has other applications such as in cosmetics, and sanitary products.
