IELTS Speaking sample part 2
सवाल:
Describe a holiday you enjoyed. You should say
When and where you went
Who you went with
What you did on the holiday
And explain why you found this particularly holiday enjoyable.
प्रतिमान उत्तर:
During the month of April 2014, I visited Phuket in Thailand with my family. It was a planned holiday और I was very excited about the trip. The flight was of around 5 hours and my son enjoyed a lot as it was his first flight. इसके अतिरिक्त, Thailand was always one of my dream destination. The capital city of Thailand is Bangkok and it is located in the centre of the country. We took another flight from Bangkok and finally reached Phuket.
Phuket is full of beaches and they are extremely beautiful. The sand is white and the water is clear. Next day we went to Phi Phi island where we took a motorboat on rent and after reaching in the middle of the sea, we did snorkelling. It was a memorable experience and it is difficult for me to put it into words. It seemed like there is another world that exits under water. I would love to go again and enjoy the waves of sea. In my opinion, Thailand is undoubtedly a worth visiting destination.
IELTS Speaking sample part 3
The examiner will now discuss one or two more general questions related to the same topic.
Question1. Why do people go on holiday?
उत्तर। I believe that people go on holidays to energize themselves.
Question2. How important is it for families to go on holiday together?
उत्तर। In my opinion, it is very significant as it strengthens the bond.
Question3. Is it better to take a holiday in your own country or in a foreign country? Why?
उत्तर। पहले तो, I would say that enjoying a trip is more important than the location. हालांकि, I would also say that location preference may differ according to the group of people you are going with. Like if you are going with your friends then you may want to explore the place to the fullest so a foreign country may be better लेकिन if you are going with your family then having fun is the ultimate motive of your vacation. All in all, location hardly matters.
