SAMPLE ANSWER

When I was about seven, I was very ill after school and I was sent home from school and I was lying on the sofa feeling sorry for myself, watching TV, and I got bored and decided to go and ask my mum if she could go and find a game for me or a book or something else to do, and when I went into the kitchen, my mother was cooking.

And so, as I sort of went behind her, I had no shoes on and she didn’t hear me coming, and she was making boiled potatoes, and as I got behind her she turned around with the boiled potatoes in the saucepan to take them to the sink and I was right behind her, so she hit me round the head with the saucepan of boiling water and it all spilled down onto my shoulder and splattered my face and went all over my shoulder and burnt me.

But because she didn’t let go of the saucepan, she still had it in her hand, she didn’t realise that I was crying because I was burnt, she thought I was crying because she’d hit me and bumped my head, so she didn’t respond quickly enough, which made the whole thing worse.

At the time, my dad was a plumber and of course that was before mobile phones were invented, so dad was out at work and mum didn’t drive, so I had to wait about seven hours on the sofa with a dressing on my shoulder for my dad to come home from work so that he could take me to hospital.

My poor mum, bless her heart, must have been very worried and not known what to do, with not being able to drive, but I guess there wasn’t anything else she could do, she did as much as she could, bathed it in cold water, put a dry dressing on…

PART – 3 FOLLOW UPS

What should be done to reduce road accidents?

In my opinion, awareness and responsibility are the two important elements to tackle this crucial matter. In particular, by raising awareness people will become well-informed and it might lead to the decline of road accidents. This could occur with the intervention by governing bodies, family, school and even campaigners. Accountability is also an essential characteristic.

There are many cases, especially in Europe, when people go out and drink and after that, they drive back home on their own. Terrible accidents can happen under the influence of alcohol and we should underline that most of the time not only drunk drivers are getting killed but also sober drivers and innocent people are becoming victims who are in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Apart from that, the traffic system should be improved and the accident-prone roads should be reconstructed. Driving offences should be taken seriously and rigid tests and checking should be in place before giving someone a driving license.

IELTS Speaking Test

Who should be responsible for the accidents?

First and foremost, drivers have a great responsibility for any accident. Many factors such as alcohol, fake driving license, excessive speed, and lack of road safety contribute to the dramatic increase in road accidents. However, drivers are aware of these considerations so there is a matter of irresponsibility and whoever drives a car should be more responsible.

In addition, parents play an important role as well, because they allow their children to drive despite the fact that they’re underage and incapable of driving safely and consciously. Furthermore, there are some cases where accidents are caused by a faulty mechanism of cars. These cases aren’t that common, but when it happens, the fatal is inevitable. So car manufacturers and distributors in some cases should be responsible as well.

IELTS Speaking Test

What damages do you think occurs when an accident takes place?

The most dangerous thing that happens in an accident is the loss of human lives. Due to unpleasant and unexpected accidents, many people pass away and this is the most terrible thing that could happen. Going further, the victims of road accidents often suffer minor or heavy injuries and the latter entails a long time of hospitalisation, with potential permanent damages.

Vehicle damage is a further loss, as in most cases cars, motorcycles and all the other vehicles involved, end up completely mangled. Furthermore, the family members of the victims suffer from unbearable losses and the outcome often brings catastrophe to those family members.
