IELTS CUE CARD – Talk about a time you received good news

IELTS CUE CARD: Talk about a time you received good news.

You should say:

When it happened?

How you got the news?

What the news was about?

and explain why the news was special?

SAMPLE ANSWER

Good and bad news are a part and parcel of everyone’s life. Today, I’d like to talk about a time when I received good news.

I live in London. It’s been two years since I came here to pursue my higher education. My studies are quite demanding. Because of a busy schedule, I rarely get time to talk to my family, and video calls are only possible on weekends. Last week, I video-called my mother in India, and I suddenly saw her holding a newborn baby in her arms. It was so cute – just a bundle of joy wrapped in my mum’s arms.

I asked my mother who the baby was, and she exclaimed with joy that it was the baby of my close aunt who had no children. It was indeed a surprise for me because I have been far away from my family; therefore, I wasn’t aware of it. My mother told me that the birth of this baby was a miracle given the health complexities my aunt had. I thanked God for fulfilling my aunt’s wish and blessing her with a healthy baby she could call her own.

Emotions were running high in my head. It reminded me of the time when she used to visit us during summer holidays, and she would talk to my mum about her feelings of loneliness and the social stigma of being childless. I was very happy for her. I also felt sad because I could not hold this cute little baby in my arms and give either of them a warm hug. Seeing a lot of other relatives in the video call calmed me down. They were all happy, cheering, having a great time, and enjoying the baby. It was truly good news for everyone.

So, let’s practise a cue card.

Talk about learning English language

How long have you been learning English language?

Where did you learn?

What is the easiest or most difficult part of English?

Is English important in your profession?

Here is latest cue card question November 2016. Describe a mistake you made. Sample answer is on Level IELTS Band9. Best BAND7 IELTS Dehradun IELTS online simulator IELTS BAND 7 Coaching Classes

SAMPLE ANSWER

Throughout my schooling, I studied in an English-medium school. So, English was the second language I learnt at a young age. Practically, I can say that I have been familiar with English for now 18 years. During the primary years, I did not take English very seriously, and grammar rules never bothered me. It was in class VIII that I understood the importance of learning grammar and vocabulary. Since then, I have been an avid reader and have made conscious attempts to improve my English language proficiency.

For me, the most difficult part of English was remembering the spellings of new words and using them in the right context. However, since I loved English, I overcame this problem by practising and writing regularly.

Now, I am a writer, and I write travel blogs in English. So, English is a crucial part of my profession. For me, it is very important that my writing is clear, engaging and accurate. I’d like to conclude by saying that language acquisition is a gradual process which requires patience and continuous efforts.

IELTS Cue Card – New Friend

IELTS Cue Card – New Friend

Describe a person who became your friend.
You must say-
Who is the person?
How did you meet?
What made you two become good friends?

Explain how is your friendship now?

late Time

Sample Answer: Friendship has always been very important to me. I have lots of friends, and I’m proud to say that all of them are special to me. Today, I’m going to talk about one of my closest friends.

Her name is Abhilasha. I was in the first semester of my bachelor’s studies when I first met her. Although we were in the same faculty, initially we never talked much. It was during the end of the semester that we became good friends.

We had to give presentations for a science project. We were divided into groups of ten, and every one had their co-ordinators. I was pretty much good at making presentations, so I was relaxed and working on something in our lab. It was then that Abhilasha came, worried, and she told me about her problem. Her group mentor asked her to prepare her presentation a week ago, but she was unable to do it because her mother was very unwell. The next day was the deadline for submission.

I felt sorry for her, and I decided to help her. So, I took her to my home, and without wasting any time, we both started planning what to put in the slides. Since the coordinator was very picky, we had to be extra careful about the details. By late night, the presentation was ready, and she even rehearsed a few times. We both felt confident. In the morning, she delivered a beautiful presentation.

I think the fact that I helped her even when my work was incomplete made her my friend. We understand and value each other. We have been close friends ever since then.
