Latest IELTS Speaking Cue Cards Jan - April 2024

Speaking module in IELTS is a module about which the student does not have confidence. The main reason behind this is that many students are afraid about which questions the examiner can ask them.

Describe a Piece of International News

As an avid news follower, I've always been interested in staying updated on global events. While I mainly focus on news from my country, certain announcements demand attention. I vividly recall stumbling upon news of a virus while scrolling through my mobile feed.

COVID-19, a virus originating in Wuhan, China, was unlike anything the world had seen in my lifetime. The year 2019 brought forth this unprecedented disease. International flights stopped, and countries like South Korea swiftly recognized the gravity of the situation as the virus spread rapidly across borders. However, some nations, like Italy, initially underestimated its impact. The World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic in March 2020, underscoring its global reach. India swiftly responded by halting international flights, imposing a nationwide lockdown, and suspending all operations. The COVID-19 outbreak was a seismic event that sent shockwaves worldwide.

The impact of COVID-19 has reverberated globally, affecting every country and its populace either directly or indirectly. I, too, faced challenges due to the pandemic. College closures led to a shift to online classes, with exams postponed. Many summer internships were canceled due to organizations lacking remote work projects, and months of lockdown confined us to our homes, with news of mounting casualties becoming distressingly common. The elderly, who were particularly vulnerable, became a constant source of worry for our families. This international crisis has had far-reaching consequences, profoundly affecting countless lives.

Describe the historical period

You should say:

  • what the historical period is
  • how do you know it
  • what happened during that period
  • why do you find it interesting

 

History has always fascinated me. The honest and objective studies of history teach us to understand how our world was in the past, how it is now, and how our world will look in the future.  I love hearing stories from the past. Every night, before going to bed, my grandparents tell me stories. My grandfather communicates well; now no one can speak clearly like him. I love listening to stories about animals, kings, battles, and the American Revolution. India's history shows that India is a diverse country. I will talk about the pre-independence period when my grandfather told me stories about India's journey to freedom.

 This story is about the freedom fighters who fought tirelessly, day and night, to regain India's freedom. He also spoke about Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the central figure in bringing the entire Indian nation together, whose efforts were necessary to achieve independence.

 I probably always like to learn about history and the important individuals who helped free our country. One of them was Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. His selflessness and loyalty to his country were undeniable. India was divided into 562 states, each ruled by an indigenous ruler. Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel united everyone and created India. His grandfather's stories horrified me and I became completely absorbed in his words. My grandfather told me we can understand them through books or hearing from those who walked similar paths.

This narrative was a crucial piece of India's independence story, and its telling left a lasting mark. Everyone should know about their country's history. I remember it vividly ever since I learned this in school. I had positive feelings about the morals and beliefs of our legends. They were never corrupt and never acted on greed. Instead, they gave everything to their country. Your efforts inspire me and motivate me to do something for my country. That's why I've always been fascinated by the pre-independence period.
 

Describe an Old Person you Know and Respect

      Who he or she is?

      How do you know this person?

      What is he or she like?

      Explain why you respect him or her

 

Growing up in a culture that deeply values respect for elders, I've always held senior citizens in high regard. They bring a sense of discipline to our society that's sometimes lacking, and their wealth of experience and knowledge allows them to guide us through life's challenges. I've had the privilege of encountering many wonderful elders whom I deeply respect, but none more so than my grandmother.

 

My grandmother holds a special place in my heart, and my bond with her runs deep. From my earliest memories, she's been there for me, nurturing and caring for me like no other. A retired teacher now in her late 70s, she continues to be a beacon of kindness and compassion.

 

Her generosity knows no bounds. I'll never forget how she used to tutor the children of our household staff, never asking for anything in return. Her selflessness extends beyond our family, as she readily lends a helping hand to anyone in need. I recall a time when she rushed to aid an accident victim without a moment's hesitation, showcasing her innate goodness.

 

But I admire not just her acts of kindness; it's her unwavering love and care for everyone around her. She showers her grandchildren affectionately and constantly encourages us to believe in ourselves. Despite her age, she stays connected with me through calls and video chats, always eager to hear about my life.

 

Even in retirement, she remains active, teaching at an NGO to stay connected with her passion for education. I can only hope and pray that she has many more years of health and happiness.

 

Describe a Person who Solved a Problem in a Smart Way
 

  • Who is this person?
  • What was the problem?
  • How did he/she solve it?
  • And explain why you think he/ she did it in an intelligent way.

 

In life, we often face challenges that require different approaches to overcome. I want to share a memorable experience from my high school days when I encountered a particularly tricky math problem.

 

It was during my 10th grade, and I found myself struggling with a math question given by my teacher. Despite racking my brains for a solution, I was at a loss. After an hour of fruitless attempts, I decided to seek help.

 

That's when I turned to my friend Kanwal Preet, whose intelligence and kindness I greatly admired. I explained my predicament to her, and she suggested searching for solutions online. She mentioned YouTube as a valuable resource where detailed lectures could be found.

 

Using my mother's phone, I began scouring the internet for assistance. To my relief, I discovered a plethora of instructional videos addressing my exact problem. Within a mere fifteen minutes of focused learning, I successfully tackled the task at hand.

 

I couldn't help but feel immense gratitude towards Kanwal Preet for her invaluable advice. Her quick thinking and resourcefulness saved the day for me, and I was genuinely thankful. This experience also made me realize the importance of seeking help and exploring different avenues when faced with difficulties.

 

 

Describe a bag you want to own

What kind of bag is it?

Where do you want to buy it?

How much is the cost?

Why do you want this kind of bag?

 

In recent years, bags have become essential instead of a luxury. People need them to carry their things safely, whether it's a lunch box or clothes.

One of the bags I would love to own is a high-quality leather backpack. This backpack is both stylish and functional, with a sleek, modern design that complements a variety of outfits, whether casual or professional. The bag I need should have multiple compartments, including a padded section for a laptop, several smaller pockets for accessories, and a spacious main compartment for books or a change of clothes. The leather is durable and ages beautifully, developing a unique pattern over time that adds to its character.

I would like to purchase this bag from a renowned brand such as Tomy or Coach, known for their craftsmanship and durability. These brands offer a blend of luxury and practicality, ensuring the bag is not only aesthetically pleasing but also long-lasting. I would probably buy it from anoffline store or their official website to ensure authenticity and to benefit from any potential customer service perks.

The cost of such a back is likely to be around $400 to $600, depending on the brand and specific features. While this is a significant investment, I believe the price is justified by the quality of the materials and the craftsmanship. Additionally, the bag's versatility means it can be used in a variety of settings, from daily commutes to travel, making it a practical purchase in the long run.

The main reason I want this kind of bag is its combination of style and functionality. Leatherback seamlessly fits into my lifestyle, providing the convenience of carrying essentials hands-free while maintaining a professional appearance. The durability of leather also means the bag will last for years, making it a sustainable choice compared to cheaper, less durable alternatives. Moreover, owning a well-crafted leather backpack is a personal style statement, reflecting an appreciation for quality and timeless design. Overall, this bag would not only meet my practical needs but also serve as a versatile and elegant accessory in my wardrobe.

 

 

Describe an exciting book that you enjoy reading

When you read it?

What kind of book is it?

What is it about?

And explain why you think it is exciting

Reading is important as it helps to gain knowledge, improve our language skills, and develop our imagination. Through reading, one can learn about different cultures, histories, and ideas, which broaden our understanding of the world. Additionally, reading enhances our critical thinking and empathy, allowing us to see things from different perspectives. It enriches lives and helps us grow intellectually and emotionally.

One of the most exciting books I enjoy reading is "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" by J.K. Rowling. I first read it when I was around 10 years old, and I've read it several times since then because it's such an engaging story.

This book is a fantasy novel. It's about a young boy named Harry Potter who discovers on his eleventh birthday that he is a wizard. He receives an invitation to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. At Hogwarts, Harry makes new friends, learns magic, and uncovers the truth about his parents' mysterious deaths.

The story follows Harry's first year at Hogwarts, where he faces various challenges, such as learning to fly on a broomstick, battling a troll, and trying to solve the mystery of the Sorcerer's Stone, which grants immortality. Harry, along with his friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley, works to stop the dark wizard Voldemort from stealing the stone and coming back to power.

I find this book exciting because it is filled with adventure, mystery, and magic. The world J.K. Rowling created is so detailed and imaginative that it feels real. The characters are relatable and well-developed, making it easy to get attached to them and care about their journey. The book also has many surprising twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat, eager to find out what happens next. Overall, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" is a captivating and magical story that sparks the imagination and keeps readers of all ages entertained.

 

 

Describe a volunteering experience you have had.

You should say:

What it was?

Where it was?

Why you volunteered?

How you felt about it?

Volunteering is essential for strong and healthy communities. It means giving your time to help others without getting paid, supporting various causes like protecting the environment or helping people in need. Volunteering not only solves important problems but also brings people together and creates a sense of shared purpose.

One of my most memorable volunteering experiences was participating in a community clean-up event organized by a local environmental group in my hometown. The event took place at a large public park that was in dire need of maintenance and restoration due to years of neglect.

I decided to volunteer because I have always been passionate about environmental conservation and wanted to contribute to making my community a better place. The event was also an opportunity to meet like-minded people and learn more about local environmental issues.

On the day of the clean-up, I arrived early in the morning along with a diverse group of volunteers, including families, students, and senior citizens. We were all given gloves, trash bags, and tools to help with the clean-up. Our tasks included picking up litter, removing invasive plants, planting native species, and painting over graffiti.

Throughout the day, I felt a strong sense of responsibility among the volunteers. Despite the hard work, there was a lot of laughter, and everyone was eager to make a positive impact. As we worked, we shared stories and tips about sustainable living, which was both enlightening and motivating.

By the end of the day, the transformation of the park was remarkable. Seeing the immediate results of our efforts was incredibly satisfying and filled me with a sense of accomplishment. The park looked cleaner, more vibrant, and welcoming for the community. Knowing that I had played a part in this improvement gave me a profound sense of pride and fulfillment.

This volunteering experience reinforced my belief in the power of collective action and the importance of community involvement in tackling environmental issues. It also inspired me to continue seeking out opportunities to volunteer and advocate for environmental sustainability.

 

Describe a piece of good news you heard from others.

You should say:

What it was?

When you received this news?

How you received this news?

Why you feel it was good news?

Good news has the unique power to uplift our spirits and bring a sense of joy and positivity into our lives. It's those moments of unexpected happiness or long-awaited achievements that can brighten our days and remind us of the good things in life. Whether it's a personal success, a milestone reached by a loved one, or a positive event in the community, sharing and receiving good news strengthens our connections with others and spreads a sense of optimism. Today, I'd like to share a piece of good news that recently brought me a lot of joy.

A piece of good news I recently heard from others was that my close friend had been accepted into her dream graduate program. She had been working incredibly hard for this opportunity, and it meant a lot to her both personally and professionally.

I received this news a couple of months ago, in early March. My friend called me immediately after she received the acceptance email. Her voice was full of excitement and joy, and I could feel her happiness radiating through the phone.

I felt this was good news for several reasons. Firstly, my friend had invested a tremendous amount of time and effort into preparing her application, including studying for exams, writing a compelling personal statement, and gathering strong recommendations. Secondly, this program was highly competitive, and being accepted was a testament to her hard work, dedication, and talent. Lastly, I knew that this opportunity would open many doors for her future career and personal growth, allowing her to pursue her passions and make significant contributions in her field.

Sharing in her joy and knowing how much this achievement meant to her made this news especially uplifting. It was a reminder of the rewards that come from perseverance and hard work, and it also inspired me to keep striving towards my own goals.
