PART – 1 INTRO
What is your full name?

How may I address you?
You may address me as Eisha.
May I see your ID?
Sure, here it is.

Would you enjoy living in the countryside?
Definitely yes! Sometimes I wish my grandparents hadn’t migrated to Mumbai. I would have loved to grow up in our village on the Konkan coast, close to the sea, listening to the sound of the waves instead of the constant cacophony of horns!
Do you prefer living in a city or the countryside? Why?
This is not an easy question. People often romanticize life in the high mountains but it is tough. Food is very expensive and locals have to walk through dangerous terrain on a daily basis. Winters are biting cold and clear running water is hard to find. So I’ll admit that city life is easier.

Do you prefer living in a city or the countryside? Why?
A. This is not an easy question. People often romanticize life in the high mountains but it is tough. Food is very expensive and locals have to walk through dangerous terrain on a daily basis. Winters are biting cold and clear running water is hard to find. So I’ll admit that city life is easier.
Would you like to live in the countryside in the future?
Not anytime soon! I can see myself living in the countryside when I am retired and walk a slower pace of life. At the moment, the countryside is great for a relaxing day out or to go and paint the landscape but I feel more at home in the city.
IELTS Speaking Test
Have you ever spent time in the countryside?
I go to the countryside in the North of Spain every summer as Madrid can become unbearably hot. My family have a chalet there so we all go and stay and laze about in the garden and swim in the pool. We take long walks in the mountains in the mornings and have long lunches in the afternoon followed by a nap.
Is farming important in your country?
It is very common for people to take on farming duties in rural areas. It is actually one of the main industries in my country, with over fifty percent of the population living off of it.
How often do you visit farms?
I live in a metropolitan city, so I am quite far from any farming areas, but every few months I will go visit one for a change of pace.
IELTS Speaking Test
What can we do to support farmers?
An idea could be to purchase products from local businesses, rather than buying mass-produced merchandise from large factories. I personally enjoy going to markets where people sell their own food, like fresh fruit and vegetables, and sometimes meat, too.
PART – 2 CUE CARD

You should say:

SAMPLE ANSWER
The expensive place I went to was in Bangalore. Its name was the Phoenix Mall of Asia. It’s the biggest mall in Bangalore. It is a big mall that looks wonderful from inside and outside, but the things there are costly.
Once, we bought a bottle of water, which cost us nearly a hundred rupees. Everything cost a lot, and we spent many rupees there only. It’s a big and good place to visit.
I suggest everyone visit there, but the things there are costly, and the mall would be great if they reduced the prices. Everyone would be going there, and it would be a good mall with parking.
I went there with my family members when I was in Bangalore during my summer vacation, and I would revisit it if I got a chance because I like that mall. The price is the only problem. Once again, I would go there and roam around.

PART – 3 FOLLOW UPS
Why do some people still use cash?
It is unequivocal that digital transactions have become integral to our lives. In my country, India, people use UPI for various transactions, and even small vendors like those who sell groceries also use UPI transactions. However, there is a section of society that still uses cash, and it is because not all people are technology savvy, and many people are also fearful of cyber fraud. That’s why they prefer cash instead of digital transactions.
Will the payment be paperless in the future?
Yes. Payments will be paperless in the future because the world is moving towards digitalization. Paper currency has various flaws. The essential one is that it is pretty challenging to track who holds how much money. In the case of digital transactions, it is fairly easy for the government to know the series of transactions. That’s why digital currency is the future.
IELTS Speaking Test
What do you think of the view that time is as essential as money?
Yes, time is as essential as money because it is a vital, precious, and limited resource. Whether rich or poor, you have the same 24 hours a day. So, time is as important as money, and it is our bounden duty to use it prudently.
Is choosing a job with a high salary or with more time off is more important?
We should choose a job with a higher salary because the primary purpose is to earn money. After all, if we have enough money, 70-80% of our jobs will be done.
If we get reasonable remuneration, we can invest in various products like fixed deposits and mutual funds. When our investments grow, we can take a bit off from our jobs to travel and spend time with our family.
