You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

In many parts of the world, there is a profitable market for products which lighten or brightens the skin.

Outline the reasons for using such product and discuss what effects they have in terms of health and society.

Write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

In many countries, particularly part of Asia, skin whitening creams are very popular and provide huge profits for the companies involved in their sale.

The major reason behind people using skin whitening cream, is the projection that fair skin people are more beautiful. May be this is because of the ancient history, people who were rich stayed indoors as compared to the poor, who worked outside. As a result, the rich became fair while the poor often were dark skin. As a result, now fair color is being taken as associated with high status. The next reason behind this is the desire for the ‘western look’. It could be attributed to the fact that they have been ruled by Westerners for a long time and now  they want to be like them.

However, despite the fact that having whiter skin may improve a person’s self-esteem, these products can have negative effects. With regards to health, it is believed that these products tend to harm the skin permanently.For instance, some contain steroids or toxins which can severely damage the skin and other parts of the body. In terms of society, there are also detrimental effects.

Overall, people are using white creams to make themselves better, this has resulted in a belief that white is better than black. This tends to have  dangerous consequences for people’s future health and society as a whole.

IELTS Essay Sample Answer # Animal Rights

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

A growing number of people feel that animal should not be exploited by people as animal rights are same rights as humans, while others argue that humans must employ animals to satisfy their various needs, including uses for food and research.

Discuss both views and give your opinion.

Write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Animals are a part of nature, as humans are. However, in recent times the exploitation of animals has increased, causing animals to extinct. Some people believe that humans have the rights to exploit animals for their own benefit, while others disagree.

There are several reasons for people believing that animals can be used for the benefit of mankind. Firstly, there is a common belief that humans are the highest of the species in hierarchy. This means that if by experimenting on animals we can fight and find cures for diseases, then this takes priority over animal suffering. Secondly, animals are assumed to feel no pain or suffering as humans do, and therefore to kill animals is morally acceptable.

However, some people are of the opinion, that animals are very much the part of nature as we humans are. To prove this fact, several experiments have been done on animals which clearly prove that they feel the same amount of suffering and loss as humans do. Even more, a considerable amount of research on animals are done for cosmetics, rather than diseases, so it must be avoided. Also, it has been proved that humans can get all the vitamins and minerals from green vegetables, which makes eating or exploiting animals avoidable.

Overall,  although some people argue killing animals for research and food is ethical, in my opinion, exploiting animals will extinct them and cause imbalance in nature.

IELTS Essay Sample Answer # Human Cloning

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

As people live longer and longer, the idea of cloning human beings in order to provide spare parts is becoming a reality. The idea horrifies most people, yet it is no longer mere science fiction.

To what extent do you agree with it?

SAMPLE ANSWER

The cloning of animals has been occurring for years now, however, in recent times, with advancement in science and technology, cloning of humans has also become possible. Although some people believe that it is the best thing that has happened to human kind, others disagree. In my opinion, although it is a great thing, but excessive usage of it, might not be the right idea.

Cloning of humans certainly  opens up doors for many. For instance, people who lose their body parts or are born with some deficiency, can very well lead a normal life, which allows them to do all the activities. Even more, it is a great news for those who lose their loved ones, with human cloning, they might be able to at least live with someone look alike of their beloved.

However, cloning brings in the dilemma of creating another human. It might even give rise to crimes where individuals are killed. With human cloning, one will never be able to find out the criminal, as in few days one can have a look alike of the dead person. Even more it could take away rights from many individuals. For instance, a suppose a person has his/her clone, it is very possible that they mess with their work or the relationships they have.

Overall, in my opinion, cloning is vast subject. Although it will be very beneficial, I suppose the negative effects are more than the positive and it is better if we avoid it for further development.

Importance Of Time # IELTS Speaking

TIME

Time is valuable and if you want to achieve something, you need to take care of it. So, today, let us have a look at some of the possible questions and answers related to importance of time.

Are you good at managing time?

I am not one of those who make a plan and work accordingly, setting the time and all. But for me, I decide the amount of work that needs to be done on particular day, without any particular order, and work accordingly. So, if you say managing time, I am average in it, because something things go here and there, but either ways, I make sure that the last product is good.

How do you manage your time?

Well, I manage my time by not thinking about time. I focus on the amount of work done and more importantly on its quality. For some reasons, the time gets managed accordingly. Focusing on what needs to be done at this point of time, helps a lot. To keep a note of the work, I maintain a diary that is almost next to me when I am on work.

When is it most important for you to manage time?

Always. It is not just about work or family, it is about life. So, one cannot be like give the entire time to work and also the vice versa. One has to juggle between the two and make sure that I am giving enough time to both. Also, there are priorities in both, so for me I need to take into consideration, both aspects of my life.
