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 your idea of a perfect home or dream house IELTS Cue Card 2020.
1. Do most Indian people live in an apartment or house?
I think it depends on the region they are living in.
In most of the big cities, like the metropolitan cities, people live in apartments, as there is a scarcity of land in such places and to accommodate the ever-increasing population, there are more and more apartment buildings being built.
However, in the small cities, towns and the countryside, we can find people mostly living in houses, rather than apartments.
2. Do young people in your country like to live with their parents or by themselves?
In my country, young people like to live with their parents, unless they have to move to another city or country, for higher education or for better career prospects.
It’s a part of the Indian culture for children to live with their parents.
3. Do Indian people like to rent a place to live?
No, Indian people do not like to rent a place to live. I think it’s the dream of almost every Indian to own his/her own house.

Yes, definitely. I would like to live in a foreign country in the future. I plan to pursue my education abroad.
I think there are better education facilities and better job opportunities in developed countries.

The modern home design is very different to that of the past, in my country.
The material being used now in the construction of houses if much advanced, like weather proof paints, insulated walls, soundproof windows, etc.
The design of the modern houses is according to the space available.
There is better utilization of space in the modern home designs.
The homes in the past used to be more spacious and not equipped to handle the latest electronic gadgets and equipment, like washing machine, microwave, dishwashers & so on.
6. In your country what type of home do most people live in?
India is a vast and diverse country. People live in different types of houses, depending on the region and the climate in that region.

In regions where there is snowfall, sloped houses are common. In plain areas, people design their houses, as per the area and space available.
7. Do people prefer to live in Modern Homes or the older style homes (for example from 50 years ago)?
People prefer to live in modern homes rather than older style homes because modern homes are better equipped to handle the latest electronic gadgets and technology.

8. How are modern homes different to older homes?
Modern homes are quite different from the older homes, in terms of the design, material used and the structure of the building.
Older homes were more spacious, with proper ventilation. Modern homes are designed to properly utilize the space, due to the shortage of land these days.
These days, people employ interior designers and architects to plan and decorate their homes.
Older homes may not be equipped to handle the latest electronic gadgets and appliances.
