Introduction:
Life has progressed by leaps and bounds due to inventions in science.
Nearly every field in life has been impacted by some invention.
Nearly everything we do has changed because of the Internet.
How you use this invention? and Whether it is difficult to use it?
The biggest difference has been in the way we communicate.
We can talk to anyone anytime and from anywhere.
Also, it is much easier to contact our friends and family because of the Internet.
Life has become faster as communication has become instantaneous.
The Internet’s impact is not only limited to just communication.
It has made a difference in the way we shop, the way we learn and the way we seek healthcare.
We can access every luxury, sitting in the comforts of our homes.
On the other hand, there have also been a few negatives of the Internet.
The Internet has, in some ways, decreased respect for the elderly.
First, we don’t value them as much because we are not dependent upon them for advice or suggestions as in the past.
We can search for anything online.
We don’t need to ask anyone; we can just simply search it online.
This is making us independent but also making our grandparents and parents feel like they are losing their importance.
Secondly, because they are not that comfortable using computers and the Internet, they haven’t benefited as much as the young ones.
Conclusion:
Slowly, everything is moving online, and old people are finding it challenging to adapt.
IELTS Speaking Part 3 : Follow up Questions
Here some examples of follow up questions that you may asked during your speaking part 3 by examiner related to cue card “describe an invention that is useful in daily life”.
Q1. How has technology made our life easier? Different technologies have made our lives easier in different ways. However, in effect, most technologies reduce our labour and save us valuable time, thus improving our quality of life considerably. They also in a way reduce our need on others because we can do everything on our own.
Q2. Which invention do you think is the most useful at home? I think it’s very hard to choose one. It really depends upon the person and their use. For example, I find dishwashers as very useful because in my house, I have the responsibility of washing utensils. For my mother the answer might be the vacuum cleaner as she is responsible for cleaning.
Q3. Is it more difficult for old people to accept new technologies? I think change is difficult for everyone, and the difficulty increases with age because the time we spend accustomed to something also increases as we grow older. I think rather than looking at it as a problem, we should be focusing on ways to making it easier for our elders to accept them.
Q4. What can be done to help old people learn to make use of new technologies? Many steps can be taken to encourage the use of new technologies. Firstly, these big technology companies can organise seminars where older people can be taught about use of latest gadgets. I remember when my mother first bought a laptop, she was offered a free two hour session on its use for the whole week. At the end of the week, she knew many things, I didn’t. Secondly, family members can also be helpful in helping their parents and grandparents when they are finding something difficult.
Q5. Will our life be better if we live without technology？ Technology has improved our life in many ways but it has also brought many challenges. Life would certainly be simpler, but I wouldn’t call it better. Moreover, I think we have become so accustomed to technology just the idea of living without it is unfathomable.
