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 1st cue card:
“Describe your favourite weather IELTS Cue Card 2021”
1. Do you often pay attention to the weather forecast? (Why?/Why not?)
Yes, I pay attention to the weather forecast on a regular basis. The reason is I travel a lot and it becomes necessary to know about the weather to be prepared in advance.
Also, climate change has made the weather unpredictable. It sometimes rains even in the dry season as such knowing the weather on a day-to-day basis has become a necessity.
2. How does the weather (or, the weather forecast) affect what activities people do?
People prefer to stay indoors on hot sunny days or rainy days and go out for picnics on pleasant days.
Also, there are things we like to eat in certain weather – for example, fritters on rainy days, ice creams on warm days, etc. It also affects the clothing patterns. People wear light-colored loose cotton dresses in summers and dark warm clothes in cold weather.
3. (Similar to above) How does the weather affect people’s daily lives?
4. Why do some people dislike some kinds of weather?
I think it’s because the weather can limit people’s activities. If the weather restricts people from enjoying their favorite activity, it can make them dislike that weather.
My friend hates rainy days because he likes to play cricket and he can’t do that because of the rain.
5. Do people wear different clothes in different types of weather (or, different seasons)?
( Same as 2)
6. Does the weather have an effect on the economy?
Yes, the weather affects our economy. For example, due to milder winters, a lot of people from cold northern countries visit us during that time.
Thus it promotes tourism. Also, certain weather like hot sunny days boosts the earning of local ice cream vendors. Similarly, winters boost the jackets and sweaters industry.
7. (Similar but different) (In your country), are there any differences in economic activity in the different seasons?
There are differences in certain economic activities. For example, warm clothes’ industry gets a boost in the winter season. Similarly, farming is also dependent upon seasons – certain crops like rice are grown in summers whereas others like wheat in winters.
