These days, most of the youngsters are engaged in social networking websites. Youngsters use it for the most part of the day to connect to new people and to see what is happening in their friend’s life. I use social networking site every day. My favourite one is Facebook. I have been using this website from a couple of years and I have made many new friends within country and abroad. I have also connected with my old friends with whom I lost touch. I think that I use this website for more than an hour every day. There are many reasons to like Facebook. The biggest reason is that you stay connected to your friends 24x7. You can post your photographs and you can let people know that what is happening in your life. similarly, you can check what your friends are up to these days. Apart from this, I have found a lot of my old friends on Facebook. Now, I regularly chat with them and get the updates. Moreover, one can like different pages on this website to get information regarding that page. For an example, if you like cars, you can like pages related to cars. They will show you videos and updates related to latest cars in the market. One can also watch news and latest trends going in the world. You can also connect with people who are living in foreign countries. Not only this, you can also promote your business on Facebook. You can do advertisements regarding the product you sell. I am very fond of using this website for making friends in foreign countries. In total I have made around hundred new friends in foreign countries. I chat with them and try to learn about their culture and lifestyle. I also do video calling with my friends and relatives who are living in foreign countries. All in all, it is a wonderful social networking website.

tips for the IELTS Speaking interview A day prior to the interview It is important that you have read this book thoroughly till the day prior to your interview On the day before exam it is advised that you should not practice a lot of speaking Reading of this book should also be avoided Reading should be done before that Don’t mark anything as important or common Read the whole book carefully and take out ideas for your speaking test Sleep on time a day before the interview If you sleep well, you will be energized for the test day It is important to be active on important days This helps you to perform better On the test day Reach the exam center at least 40 minutes before your speaking slot You will also receive an acknowledgement via email Just take a printout of that and take it along with original passport and a photocopy of it on the exam day Don’t read any book or try to practice anything on the day of speaking test It is important to stay focused and blank before the interview In the interview (one on one) These days in many IDP centers, speaking is done through webchat But in this section, I am going to give you tips regarding the conventional type of speaking test The one on one IELTS Speaking test is taken by one examiner in an enclosed cubical or a test room In this type of a test, the examiner will ask you questions, and you must answer them one by one There are some things that you need to remember before going in the exam The do’s and don’ts are as follows: Do’s Reach the exam center at least 40 minutes before the speaking test slot Take along acknowledgement, original passport and copy of passport at the time of exam Drink a full glass of water before the start of exam (ask anyone there, they will be happy to help you) Dress formally for the speaking test Knock before you enter the speaking test room Ask for a permission to sit Greet the examiner with a smile Listen to the questions carefully Always answer a bit loud and with clear tone Make eye contact with the examiner (this increases your confidence) Use formal language to communicate (Avoid using slangs) Ask the examiner to repeat the question politely if you don’t understand it Prepare notes for the Cue-card Topic Stop speaking when examiner tells you to stop Don’ts Never wear accessories like earrings or metal studs (for boys) Never reach late for the exam (it will rush you and your thoughts) Don’t start your answer before the question is completed Don’t keep your hands on the table while speaking Don’t use memorized phrases and topics Don’t wear a watch in the exam as it will distract you Don’t take too many pauses Don’t use a lot of hand movements and gestures Don’t repeat the question before giving the answer Don’t smile too much at the time of speaking (just be natural) Don’t finish your answer mid-way Avoid using repetitive vocabulary and words Don’t rush in giving your answers Don’t stop the cue card topic before time Don’t ask the examiner about the interview at the end (simply say thank you and goodbye) How to answer General round questions – First Round Sometimes candidates go over the top in answering the general round questions These questions are very easy but can be deceptive as well It is crucial to cover the while aspect with minimal of explanation You should not answer these questions in detail Only a few lines are required Try to answer the general questions in three to four lines Don’t stretch your answer too much as it will deviate you from your topic This round lasts for about minutes In these minutes the examiner has a quota of at least 10 – 15 questions that he/she ask you So be precise and accurate in your answers to fetch higher band score As you are only speaking three or four lines for each answer, you don’t have a lot on your plate You can’t go wrong in your answers If you are answering in this length, then there are rare chances of you to make any grammatical error if you are prepared well The speaking interview is divided in such a way that all the three rounds weigh equally in terms of band score So, you can try to get full marks in the first round as the questions will also be not that tricky and the answer length required is also not too long Cue-card Topic – Second Round In this round the examiner will ask you to speak on a topic for about minutes You must speak for minute and 30 seconds minimum and not more than minutes You are also given a piece of paper, a pen and one minute to prepare some notes on the Cue-card Topic There is a certain way to prepare the topics that will help you to score good in this round You need to be good in your grammar and use of vocabulary in this round Moreover, it is integral to follow the timing in the second round How to Prepare Cue-card Topic Suppose my topic is – Speak about your visit to a Mall So, I know that there are lot of aspects associated with malls So, my first job should be to write everything that is associated with mall As you get only a minute to prepare for your topic, you can’t write a long story However, you can make bullet points that will help you while speaking the topic Bullet Points for this Topic are as follows: My city Many malls Favourite one About the visit Why With whom When What I did Shopping Movie Hungry Food Came back These points can be easily recalled and written under one minute If you have read the whole book, then you can simply recall the idea and not the whole text Recalling ideas is very easy than memorizing 300 odd topics for your exam Even if you have read a certain topic once, you will still remember a lot of it in idea’s sense IELTS Speaking Test Format Format Part 1: The examiner will introduce him or herself and ask you to introduce yourself and confirm your identity The examiner will ask you general questions on familiar topics, e.g home, family, work, studies and interests This section should help you relax and talk naturally Part 2: The
