IELTS CUE CARD – Describe a crowded place you have visited

IELTS CUE CARD – Describe a crowded place you have visited

You should say:

Where is it?

When you went there?

With whom you went there?

Explain how you felt about being there?

SAMPLE ANSWER

India is densely populated, so if we are stepping out of our homes we hardly find a place which is not crowded. I normally avoid visiting overcrowded places.

Recently a Shopping Complex was inaugurated in my hometown. It is situated on the outskirts. A lot of advertisements appeared in the local newspaper to promote it. One weekend I decided to visit the Shopping Complex with my friend. It was Sunday and we planned to go there in the afternoon. We reached the Complex at around 3 p.m. I was in the mood of shopping clothes so we headed towards a clothes store inside the Complex. Both of us selected few garments and went towards the trial room to try the outfits.

Surprisingly, there was a long queue outside the trial room. I found it really funny. My friend and I started giggling about it while waiting for our turn. After waiting for about 15 minutes we were able to try our clothes. Both of us selected a dress each and went towards the billing counter to make payment. On finding a queue there I started laughing again and nudged my friend while waiting for our turn.

As soon as we paid our bills we rushed towards the Food Court as we were quite hungry. It was 5 pm already and the Food Court too was packed with people. With great difficulty we managed to buy burgers and fries for ourselves. While we were eating, the crowd kept on increasing.

We quickly finished our meal as I started feeling suffocated. I rushed out of the Complex gasping for fresh air. That day, I decided I won’t visit this Complex on a Sunday ever again.

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.

IELTS Speaking: Part 3 – Follow up questions related to animals

IELTS Speaking: Part 3 – Follow up questions related to animals.

late Time
Follow-up questions related to animals

Q. 1: Do you think being cruel to an animal is the same as being cruel to a human?

Answer: Certainly, it is. Most animals can’t protect themselves when someone hurts or kills them, but they do feel pain. So, in a way, animal abuse is much more inhumane.

Q. 2: Should people be allowed to hunt animals for their own entertainment?

Answer: As far as the entertainment is concerned, nowadays people have a lot of means to entertain themselves, so they shouldn’t be allowed to hunt animals for pleasure. In my opinion, hunting for fun should be banned globally. There is no point in killing helpless animals just for the sake of enjoyment. It is morally unacceptable.

Q. 3: How can we help protect endangered species of animals?

Answer: Protecting endangered species is a challenging task. It requires a lot of efforts and commitment. As an individual, we can financially support charities that work for threatened animals. We can even work voluntarily for such organisations.

Q. 4: What sorts of human activities make it more difficult for wild animals to survive?

Answer: According to a World Wildlife Fund report, farming, deforestation and hunting are the major human activities that have threatened the lives of thousands of animal species. Human-induced climate change is also a serious threat to wild animals.

Q. 5: Is it fair to make pets out of wild animals?

Answer A: Honestly speaking, I’m against making pets out of wild animals. They’re called wild animals for a reason. They’re supposed to be free in the wild. Freedom is their fundamental right. If we really want to have a pet, there are plenty of other options.

Answer B: It’s an interesting question. I’ve never thought about it. But, maybe if we have the appropriate facilities, then I don’t suppose raising young ones should be a problem, although it might be a moral dilemma for some.

Q. 6: If a shark kills a human in the sea, should it be hunted down?

Answer: I don’t think so. Hunting is not a feasible solution to this problem as it can affect the ecology of the ocean. In my view, other precautionary measures like nets, drum liners or tagging can be more effective in dealing with the issue of shark attacks.

Q. 7: There are no intelligent animals except humans? Do you agree?

Answer: It’s true that humans are highly intelligent. But other members of the animal kingdom show signs of intelligence. Chimps, elephants, bottleneck dolphins, dogs, cats, crows, etc. are some examples of smart animals. Scientists are busy discovering just how smart they really are.
