1 .
Why do you want to take the IELTS test? (=
one reason only) Well, I am taking the IELTS test today because I intend to study overseas next year. I
have applied to 3 different universities in Australia, and they all required me to take this testin
order to prove my ability to use English in different situations.
2. Why do the people in cities want green spaces? Well, I think the answer is very obvious
:
it’s due to the fact that parks and green
areas are pleasant places for people to relax, and people in urban areas don’t have so many
opportunities to get away from the city with its noise and traffic
(
=hustle and bustle)
.
If there is a
park not far from their house, families can go for a walk and children can play there safely. In a
word, everyone can enjoy a better lifestyle.
3. Why are writing skills so important in education and learning? Well, it’s due to the fact that writing is the basis of all knowledge. Writing is always
associated with reading. Our society’s education system depends on books and reading. I
mean, we teach knowledge through books, and teachers test their students’ ability to think
through writing. Because our educational institutions are based on those two skills, a young
student who cannot write well won’t be able to receive a proper education in my country.
I guess our tradition of education is very different from that of people like the Australian
Aborigines, for example, who used to educate their children through oral stories only.
