Describe an interesting historical place. You should say: What it is. Where it is located What you can see there now And explain why this place is interesting

Model Answer:-

Visiting to historical places offer you many intriguing facts and features that may surprise the visitors. There are many famous and interesting places all around that world which attract people from every corner of the globe.

I have been to many ancient monuments, landmarks and abandoned places which have their own stories to tell. Their background history is very significant to know the reasons of construction and destruction.

There is a place about 40 kilometers away from my home town which is very interesting historical place. It is called a town of religion where the war of Mahabharata took place. There are numbers of historical monuments, temples and landmarks of the past witnessing the enriched past of India.

This place is located in northern part of India. This place offers museum, Holy pond, temples and many tombs of famous people of past.

We visit there almost every year and feel the touch of past. When we peep in the ancient time of India, get to know the great people who sacrificed their life to stand with good and destroy the evil. The Government of India pays special attention to such places so people can learn about the history.

There are many Governments aided places accommodate there. On the occasion of Solar Eclipse people from all around the work come to bath and worship there. It is believed that Solar Eclipse and bathing in the holy pond deliver people from the sins. This fascinates people and they don’t miss such opportunity.

I have noticed several times that people do feel contacted to this place and come there again and again. Most of my friends make plan and go there to learn interesting facts from the priests appointed in the temples. I must say that this place has been very interesting.

He is very wise and down to earth person. He has been always there to guide and help young people to shine in life and achieve great things.

His teaching style is very unique and easy to understand. He makes other feel at home I never had to feel uncomfortable with him that I really like about the person.

He is very strict about education and he always preaches to work hard and keep patience. He tries to inspire us to be more practical in life.

I trust this man so much and he makes me feel confident about life. He is very important person of our society. One thing that really amazes me about him his enthusiasm to live fully and openly.

IELTS Speaking : Cue Card : Talk about your favorite book.

In this post we are going to cover a cue card. You can find the explanation and vocabulary.

Talk about your favorite book. You should say:- What its title is What it’s about When you read it and say why it is your favourite book.

Model Answer:-

Reading is one of my favorite hobbies. I devote my most of free time reading books, magazines and newspapers.

I have so far read books on self help, inspiration, and finance and personality development.

There are many great authors committed to change the world through their writings.

If I talk about my favorite book it is the leader who had no title. This book is authored by Robin Sharma much sought after public speaker, leadership consultant and prolific writer.

I read it two years ago when I was planning to start a business in education sector

This book is about leadership skills, it says if one has to become a true leader, he must lead without any position.

The book indicates there are people holding huge titles and doing nothing. Some of them work just because they have titles.

True leaders don’t need any title they work for a cause. They don’t work for attracting the attention of people around them.

The author says every person is a leader he must work diligently and painstakingly

They work to inspire their co-workers to work at their best and boost positive atmosphere within the organization and society.

They don’t work to win accolades but to trust of people. They have a clear vision which can be translated into reality.  

The book taught me not to work for show off; I must be working to bring a change which can uplift others. I become more positive and work selflessly.

There are some examples of people who work without any title. They have transformed lives of many people.

I now work without considering any accolades of my work. This book has been my favorite since very first read. Whenever I have to clear any concept of leadership I do read it.

Hope that the content is useful to your preparation.

IELTS Speaking:Cue Card: Describe a friend you have known for the longest time.

Hello IELTS Aspirants,

Hope you are doing great

In this post we are going to cover a Cue card which is very important and often asked in IELTS examinations.

Describe a friend you have known for the longest time. You should say:- When you first met What you like about your friend How often you see your friend And say why this person is still your friend

Model Answer:-

It is true that friends are integral part of our life. We often make friends in school, collage and at workplace. I have made friends from all hues and I often make time to see them. Here I would like to talk about a friend who is still my best buddy. When I was in middle school that time I met with Rajesh Sharma. Earlier in the school I had no close friends there. Rajesh joined the class in the middle of academic session.

After couple of weeks of his enrollment in our class we started getting to know each other. We would often meet after the school and happen to be good and later best friends. There was a time when teachers would tell students of our friendship and academic performance.

Rajesh has been a down to earth and intelligent person, when we were studying in middle school, I was afraid of match, he helped me to clear some important concepts of math which were crucial to pass the board examination.

His speaking style was something that teachers and students admired a lot. Whenever I had any problem with any subjects I would approach him. He would explain in each and understandable manner.

There was a span of time we did not see each other. Fortunately we again started meeting and helping each other. We once started a small business and it grew more than our expectation.  Later we sold it. We have been together for many years.  I must say that this guy is a gem. We try every possible thing to maintain our friendship. We have been through hard time. I must say that he has been a great support in my life.
