Model Answers and follow up questions to describe a place in a village that you visited IELTS cue card:
Model Answer 1:
Introduction: I have visited many places during school holidays and academic trips/visits. I am very excited every time I go to a new location because it gives me a chance to explore new things. Today I want to talk about a place I visited two years ago with some friends and university staff.
Where it is? and When you visited this place? Sivananda is an Ashram/orphanage situated close to Rishikesh. I went there two years ago when I was graduating. the organization has now become a well-known and recognized social institution across the country.
What you did there? Not only does the organization provide them with food, education and shelter, but it also instill(gradually but firmly establish (an idea or attitude) in a person’s mind.) in them the morality to help our children grow, learn and become independent. I was in Rishikesh for a week-long visit. So our teacher and a couple of my friends decided to visit this place. We had been there a couple of hours. We had fun with the kids. Because we were computer students, we also gave computer training to young children. It is very lovely and peaceful.
The site boundary is completely lined with tall trees. I saw a hundred sorts of flowers there. Each thing seemed very nice and clean. Every staff member of this place was very cooperative and always ready to help other especially poor and needy people.
And explain why you think it was enjoyable? It is located out of town and very close to a vilage so there is a very open area where kids can easily play. I felt very happy and satisfied to know that humanity is still alive. In this century still, people are ready to help others and change their lives.
Introduction:
Introduction: and Where it is?
I belong to Phagwara.
It is a small town, and there are many villages near my hometown.
My maternal uncle and aunt have a farmhouse in a village near my hometown.
Their farmhouse is in the centre of lush green farms.
When you visited this place?
Last year, they invited us over to stay with them for a few days.
Their farmhouse is very well maintained, as they have given a portion of it to a family who stays there and looks after it.
They have maintained a very good kitchen garden, and I remember, the whole week we enjoyed fresh veggies from the garden.
They had grown aubergines, okra, bottle gourd, broccoli, cauliflower, mint, coriander and green chilly.
My uncle has retired from the agriculture department, and he knows a lot about organic farming.
He never sprays any insecticides and pesticides and even prepares compost at home from the kitchen waste.
Those vegetables tasted different.
What we eat in the cities has so much spray of insecticides and pesticides that the taste of veggies is different.
What you did there?
It was so much fun.
They have 4 dogs, two Pugs and two German Shepherds.
Every morning, we used to go for long walks in the fields, and the four dogs would walk by our sides without their leashes.
In the cities, you always have to leash your dog while going for a walk.
After the walk, we would all eat delicious parathas with butter made by my aunt.
We played badminton in their courtyard, and sometimes we also played Frisbee.
And how you feel about this place?
The air also seemed fresh and pollution free.
The atmosphere was so calm and quiet. There was also no noise pollution.
They have such a peaceful life, with absolutely no hurry and worry.
Conclusion:
I look forward to going and staying with them again this summer.
