IELTS Speaking vocabulary for environment topic

Part 1

Do you think pollution is a big problem nowadays?

Yes, definitely. Air and water pollution are huge issues in the modern world… The air pollution problem is especially grave   due to the increasing amount of exhaust fumes , Which are produced by cars, and result into a poor air quality .

What do you do to prevent our environment from pollution?

A lot of things… First of all, I don’t litter . Also, my family and me try to buy only environmentally friendly  goods whenever we can… And finally, I try to save trees… I print on both sides of every sheet of paper I use and use any left over white space to scribble notes.

Have you ever participated in any environmental events?

Yes, of course! Last year I participated in an event in my hometown, which was all about preserving nature… We were taught about the greenhouse effect   ) (and I learned about many endangered species  in the world.

Part 2

Now, have a look at the card and prepare a monologue

Describe an environmental problem or event. You should say:

• What is it
• Where is it happening
• What problems does it cause

I would like to talk about global warming  reason of global warming is the greenhouse effect   … Nowadays people are producing excessive amounts of greenhouse gases, mostly by burning fossil fuels. These gases let sunlight in, which warms the Earth, and then block that heat from leaving… That breaks the delicate natural balance and causes our planet to warm… As global warming changes the climate on the whole planet, it affects all countries in the world and causes many serious problems… For example, global warming causes melting of glaciers  , which in turn raises the sea-level… Eventually, coastal areas are flooding and agriculture is damaged unless appropriate measures are taken… As it is a worldwide problem, I think that only joint efforts will help us to overcome this issue.

Part 3

In which way do people damage our planet?

Er… In my point of view, we damage the Earth in many ways. Just take a look at all those factories that empty toxic wastee  into rivers and lakes… People also destroy a great deal of natural areas in search of fossil fuels . Not to mention poaching  and endangering of wild animals.

Do you think that the environmental situation will improve in the nearest future?

Yes, I would like to believe so… People are getting more and more aware of the major environmental issues that we’re dealing with nowadays… I hope that we will get back to nature  and start caring about our planet more.

Nowadays the way many people interact with each other has changed because of technology.
In what ways has technology affected the types of relationships that people make? Has this been a positive or negative development?

It is true that new technologies have had an influence on communication between people. Technology has affected relationships in various ways, and in my opinion there are both positive and negative effects.

Technology has had an impact on relationships in business, education and social life. Firstly, telephones and the Internet allow business people in different countries to interact without ever meeting each other. Secondly, services like Skype create new possibilities for relationships between students and teachers. For example, a student can now take video lessons with a teacher in a different city or country. Finally, many people use social networks, like Facebook, to make new friends and find people who share common interests, and they interact through their computers rather than face to face.

On the one hand, these developments can be extremely positive. Cooperation between people in different countries was much more difficult when communication was limited to written letters or telegrams. Nowadays, interactions by email, phone or video are almost as good as face-to-face meetings, and many of us benefit from these interactions, either in work or social contexts. On the other hand, the availability of new communication technologies can also have the result of isolating people and discouraging real interaction. For example, many young people choose to make friends online rather than mixing with their peers in the real world, and these ‘virtual’ relationships are a poor substitute for real friendships.

In conclusion, technology has certainly revolutionized communication between people, but not all of the outcomes of this revolution have been positive.

IELTS Speaking vocabulary for Travel & Holidays topic

Part 1

Do you like travelling?

Yes, definitely! I think seeing the world, from great historical monuments to white sandy beaches, is what life is all about . It’s a very interesting way to learn about new cultures and explore new places.

What is your favourite type of holiday?

I really like going to the countryside, getting away from it all . Nothing relaxes me as much as wilderness… I am tired of tourist traps .and usually go off the beaten track ….

What do you do on holidays?

I prefer visiting various museums and places of interest ).. For instance, on my last vacation I was to Rome and I visited 12 museums. It was fantastic! Of course, sometimes I go shopping with my friends or relatives too… But I don’t find it near as exciting…

Are there many tourists visiting your country?

Probably yes… My country has different tourist attractions . in many cities, especially the capital… For example, my country has old-time religious traditions… That’s why we have a lot of ancient cathedrals and churches that are interesting for both tourists and local citizens…

Part 2

Now, have a look at the card and prepare a monologue.

Describe a tourist attraction you once visited. You should say:

• When you visited it
• Where is it situated
• Who you went with

and say what about it you like the most

A couple of years ago I went on a holiday to Paris with my parents… it is a very popular tourist destination , since it has various places of interest , such as ancient museums and monuments… That’s whythere are always hordes of tourists …. So we decided to go out of season . in the autumn… Fortunately, the weather was great, and we did not waste any days watching TV at the hotel… it was a memorable holiday … we enjoyed breathtaking views . from the top of the Eiffel tower and dined in cozy little restaurants. I would certainly recommend visiting Paris, it is a picturesque city.

Part 3

Why do you think tourism is so developed now?

Well, because it is a lot easier to travel nowadays… you can choose charter flights . and find various youth hostels . all around the world, so you don’t need to spend much money on the travelling. Moreover, you can  book a trip . via the Internet, so you don’t even have to leave home.

How people choose their destination?

There are a lot of ways. For instance, you can surf the internet for all the necessary information… Or you can visit different travel agencies . for more advice.

What kind of transport do you prefer on holidays? Why?

It depends… I usually reach my  holiday destination . by plane because it is the fastest and the least dangerous way to travel. However, flying can be a bit uncomfortable… So I also travel by train from time to time… But I never drive car on a vacation, because I do it every day when I work… I would have a busman’s holiday otherwise.

Do you prefer travelling alone or in tour groups? Why?

I definitely prefer travelling alone because I like to plan the trip by myself… When choosing a guided tour here , you should always conform to a set schedule… So if you are in India and, say, you want to spend an extra hour at Taj Mahal, you simply cannot do that with a group tour… I like independent travel. That way I get to see and do exactly what I want and spend as much time as I want at various stops.

بخش نخست آزمون Speaking آیلتس: بسط دادن پاسخ

هر بخش از آزمون Speaking آیلتس سوالات خاص خود را دارد که نحوه ی پاسخگویی متفاوتی را از شما می طلبد. منطق ایجاب می نماید که برای هر یک از این بخش ها استراتژی و تکنیک خاصی را دنبال نمایید. در این مطلب به نحوه ی بسط پاسخ خود در بخش نخست آزمون Speaking آیلتس می پردازیم.

در این بخش شما باید به تقریبا ۱۲ سوال در مدت ۴ دقیقه پاسخ دهید. بنابراین پاسخ های شما نباید بیش از حد طولانی باشند. در عین حال نباید به یک پاسخ چند کلمه ای مختصر اکتفا کنید!

راه های بسیاری برای بسط پاسخ کوتاه و طولانی کردن آن وجود دارد، اما بهترین راه آن است که ابتدا مستقیما به سوال پرسیده شده پاسخ بدهید و سپس در دو یا سه جمله ی دیگر درباره ی آن توضیح دهید. می توانید از ساختار زیر در جواب های خود استفاده نمایید:

Here is what I think – this is why I think it – and this is an example.

برای ایجاد ارتباط میان جملات مربوط به هر یک از بخش های ساختار بالا می توانید از کلمات زیر، که به همراه کاربرد هر یک از آن ها برای شما آورده شده است، بهره ببرید:

because – explain with a reason

for example – add an example

but – add a different idea

so – talk about the consequences

and – add another similar idea

مثال:

Question: How often do you use a computer?

Answer: Actually not that much. [short answer first]. That’s because I mostly use my smart phone to send mails and check things online. It’s much easier to carry a phone around than a computer and so I only ever really use my computer now for writing documents and word processing.

روش دیگر بسط پاسخ مقایسه کردن است. این روش مخصوصا در مواردی مانند پرسش از عادات مردم محل زندگی شما کاربرد دارد (که اتفاقا از سوالات رایج در آزمون است). در چنین مواردی شما نه یک پاسخ، بلکه دو پاسخ کوتاه می دهید! که معمولا با کلمه ی But به یکدیگر متصل می شوند. تعدادی از کلماتی که در این بخش به کار شما می آیند عبارتند از:

sometimes

quite often

from time to time

mostly

some people

most people

مثال:

Question: What type of music is popular in your country?

Answer: I suppose different kinds of music are popular with different people [short answer first]. Some people – mostly the younger generation – prefer to listen to pop and dance music but older people tend to prefer traditional folk music or classical music.

Wild animals have no place in the 21st century, so protecting them is a waste of resources. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Some people argue that it is pointless to spend money on the protection of wild animals because we humans have no need for them. I completely disagree with this point of view.

In my opinion, it is absurd to argue that wild animals have no place in the 21st century. I do not believe that planet Earth exists only for the benefit of humans, and there is nothing special about this particular century that means that we suddenly have the right to allow or encourage the extinction of any species. Furthermore, there is no compelling reason why we should let animals die out. We do not need to exploit or destroy every last square meter of land in order to feed or accommodate the world’s population. There is plenty of room for us to exist side by side with wild animals, and this should be our aim.

I also disagree with the idea that protecting animals is a waste of resources. It is usually the protection of natural habitats that ensures the survival of wild animals, and most scientists agree that these habitats are also crucial for human survival. For example, rainforests produce oxygen, absorb carbon dioxide and stabilize the Earth’s climate. If we destroyed these areas, the costs of managing the resulting changes to our planet would far outweigh the costs of conservation. By protecting wild animals and their habitats, we maintain the natural balance of all life on Earth.

In conclusion, we have no right to decide whether or not wild animals should exist, and I believe that we should do everything we can to protect them. (269 words)

The money spent by governments on space programs would be better spent on vital public services such as schools and hospitals.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Governments in some countries spend large amounts of money on space exploration programs. I completely agree with the idea that these are a waste of money, and that the funds should be allocated to public services.

There are several reasons why space programs should be abandoned. Firstly, it is extremely expensive to train scientists and other staff involved with space missions, and facilities and equipment also come at a huge cost to the government. Secondly, these programs do not benefit normal people in our daily lives; they are simply vanity projects for politicians. Finally, many missions to space fail completely, and the smallest technological error can cost astronauts their lives. The Challenger space shuttle disaster showed us that space travel is extremely dangerous, and in my opinion it is not worth the risk.

I believe that the money from space programs should go to vital public services instead. It is much cheaper to train doctors, teachers, police and other public service workers than it is to train astronauts or the scientists and engineers who work on space exploration projects. Furthermore, public servants do jobs that have a positive impact on every member of society. For example, we all use schools, hospitals and roads, and we all need the security that the police provide. If governments reallocated the money spent on space travel and research, many thousands of people could be lifted out of poverty or given a better quality of life.

In conclusion, my view is that governments should spend money on services that benefit all members of society, and it is wrong to waste our resources on projects that do not improve our everyday lives.
