IELTS Book-11 Test-2 Explanation, Vocabulary and Ideas.
Part-1
Friends
How
often do you go out with friends? Why? Why not?
Spending
quality time with friends is part and parcel to be happy in
life. Even God looks for friendship and communion with mankind. I
have bunch of friends I can trust and hang out. Mostly on weekends
we go to cinemas and play ground. In other words twice or
thrice a week I make times to go out and enjoy with my mates. On
weekdays I have many irons in the fire. There are domestic duties,
study and jobs make me busy during the weekdays. Saturdays and Sundays I try to
keep free to unwind myself and discuss with friends.
Tell
me about your best friend at school?
I
feel nostalgic when I think of my school days. This was the
time when I had no worries and stress. I made many friends and some of them are
still in my contact. Mr. Raj Aryan was my best buddy in high
school. He was an intelligent and smart guy. He would often
help me with my studies and notes making. On weekends we used to
get together in our garden and visit the canal to see the waterfall. We both played
cricket. Whenever we had any academic or personal problem, we would
resolve it together. He is really kind-hearted and religious guy. We are still
best friends. During the high school our friendship used to be the talk
of town.
How
friendly are you with your neighbors?
It
is very important to be amiable and open to people who live next door to me. I
am very friendly with my neighbors and visit them very often. We celebrate
almost everything together. There is hardly any event we don’t invite or be
the part of it. My neighbors are very broadminded and
educated. If I have to ask anything I can approach to them
without hesitation.
Which
is more important to you, friends and family? Why?
Family
and friends are integral part of life. Life is mundane and meaningless if
there is absence of family and friends. It is also true that
we give more priority to our family. Because our parents do a
lot to bring us up. Friends are the people who are ready to face
any difficulty with you selflessly. Life becomes if it is colored
with friends from different backgrounds. And I believe that friends
are also the part of our family. We cannot differentiate; it may
lead to bad attitude towards friends.

Answer:-
Reading
books is one of my favorite hobbies. Whenever I go to shopping mall I do buy
books to read. I enjoy reading books on personal development, motivation,
business and health.
So
far I have read books authored by Simon Sinek, Deepak Chopra, Tony Robbins, and
Robin Sharma and so on. Their books have transformed my life
and inner personality. The write I adore is Mr. Robin Sharma, he is
one of most sought after public speaker, bestselling
writers and success couches. He has authored more than 10 books on personal
mastery, success and motivation.
He
believes in uplifting and elevating the world. He talks about
positive mental attitude, dedication to personal mastery,
and helping fellow beings through his books. Earlier he was a lawyer and
successfully working there. But it was unhappy with his work;
He wanted to be a writer and speaker. He quit his job and decided to write. His
first book was the monk who sold his Ferrari happened to be
a best seller.
I
would like to know how he made up his mind to write and leave his highly paid
job. I have sent him messages on facebook and got his replies that
whenever he comes to India, he will invite me to attend his seminars. I want to
learn the art of writing bestseller books. Frankly speaking I
am also thinking to write a novel that will talk about replacing bad
habits with good habits.
One
more reason of meeting with him is that I want to congratulate him
for the ripple he has created around the
world, and ask him to guide me how to start writing. His personality inspires me
a lot.

Example
Questions:
What
kinds of book are most popular with children in your country? Why do you think
that is?
Children
are inclined to reading books which tell stories of fairies and
famous characters of past depicted in different and easy way.
For example, children mostly read comics and other books
printed with pictures. It is very common among to read books which have cartoon
characters. Many publishers have transformed the way of
publishing books keep the young in views. They pick up religious
characters or martyrs give them they form of cartoon
as heroes or supermen and women. Children are keen on reading such
books;.
Why
do you think some children do not read books very often?
It
is disheartening to know that children today are reluctant to
read books. They have become immune to playing games on phones
and computers. The innovation in technology is not encouraging children
to become avid readers. Reading is formality to pass the
examination not to inculcate learning. They receptive mind
is hooked up by games and other gadget.
How
do you think children can be encouraged to read more?
Motivating
children to read is very challenging these days. It is noticed
that children read to complete the given tasks, I would like to say that
children must be provided books of their interests, they should be free to
choose any subject to study be it in curriculum or
not. Teachers and parents must assign reading tasks to children and
on the successful completion they could be given any reward.
They must be reminded the importance of reading in live.
Reading
for different purposes
Are
there any occasion when reading at speed is a useful skill to have? What are
they?
The
top people have one thing is common that is reading habit they all are thorough
readers. It is said that to lead in personally and professionally one
has to know more. Reading opens up the blockages of mind. It
is like dream with open eyes. It is better to prioritize reading
every day. It must be daily habit to excel in life. I have
heard that highly successful people such as Bill Gates, Ratan Tata, Mukesh
Ambani and many more devote their special time to read books,
newspapers, and magazines and articles online.
Are
there any jobs where people need to read a lot? What are they?
I
have come to know that people who are involved in
writing reviews of books, technology, movies or anything, have
to read a lot. News editors, writers and advocates cannot afford not
to read, they have to keep themselves updated with latest
ideas, trends and amendments. The CEOs of Multi-nation Corporations are devoted
readers. To take their companies ahead and inspire the employees they hunt
ideas through reading.
Do
you think that reading novels is more interesting that reading factual books?
Why is that?
I
agree that factual books are not interesting to read because our mind prefers
doing easy things. When we have to read anything where we have to use our mind
to figure out anything our mind starts feeling tired
and bored. The novels are written in way they anybody can read. It
is always a pleasure to read a novel than any books contain facts,
figures, stats and complex terms. It becomes uninteresting to
read such books.
