IELTS Speaking part 3 Follow Up Questions.
Here are some follow up questions you may be asked during part 3 IELTS Speaking exam by the IELTS examiner related to describe a place where you read and write, apart from your home IELTS Cue Card 2020.
1. At what age children start reading and writing?
Children start reading and writing when they go to pre school, that is at the age of 3-4.
But some parents start teaching their children to read and write even before that.
2. Is it the sole responsibility of school to take care of reading and writing?
Reading and writing are very important skills and should be the joint responsibility of school and parents.
Children, who develop reading and writing skills at a very young age, do much better at academics than children who do not learn these skills well.
3. Is home better or other places for reading and writing?
Home is of course a good place, but children develop the habit of reading and writing even more if they see other children around them do so.
Therefore schools and libraries are also very good places.Â
My cousin is in the US, and she tells me that she takes her children to the local library, where her children love to sit with other children and read books.
4. Share some other places where one can read or write.
Well, children can read and write in schools, libraries, homes, parks and almost anywhere, once they develop the habit of reading and writing.
5. What is more important, reading or writing?
I think both skills are interrelated. Reading is slightly more important because it forms the basis of writing.
To be able to write well, one needs to first learn to read well.
6. Who needs to have good writing skills?
Everyone needs some writing skills. Writing is a form of communication. Children with good writing skills can express themselves better.
7. From what can people get more information – words or pictures?
Well, it depends. A picture can say what a 1000 words cannot, but a picture can be interpreted differently by different people.
Words are clear and straightforward in conveying messages.
