Most of the people send text messages rather than calling. Explain the reasons for it. Do you think sending a text message is an advantage or disadvantage?


The modern era witnessed a rapid rise in texting rather than calling. It is because of several benefits of texting. Hence, I will discuss my viewpoint in the forthcoming paragraphs. 


To start with, texting is quicker and more convenient. One of the biggest reasons consumers prefer texting over calls is that it is faster. People can communicate using this mode anytime. For instance, one cannot call late in the evening; however, we can drop a text and get a reply without wasting time. Moreover, texting is much more convenient than calling because it allows us to exchange words during time intervals such as breakfast and lunch. Moreover, texting is excellent to use in start-and-stop modes, which makes phone calls an impractical choice. Therefore, various people love to use texting over voice calls. 


On the one hand, people love texting when there is no need to get acknowledged by the receiver. It is an excellent concept for general announcements or appointment reminders. Moreover, texting can reach a large number of people at the same time, which is impossible in a voice call mechanism. In the same way, sometimes we cannot approach a person in case of an emergency due to a meeting or conference, and text message is the best way to update since one cannot attend a voice call during meetings. 


On the other hand, voice calls are great for having detailed conversations and getting recipients to respond immediately. We can imagine the truthfulness of a person on a voice call effectively compared to texting since we can get constructive feedback in a matter of time. Furthermore, calling can be better than texting for fostering deeper connections, conveying emotions and understanding others accordingly using bodily gestures. Various studies have revealed that a human voice can soothe anxiety and lower cortisol levels, making phone calls a healthier option for emotional well-being. 


To conclude, convenience and ease of use behaviour gravitate people to opt for sending messages rather than going forvoice calls. Moreover, after discussing both schools of thought, I think this concept has equal merits and demerits.

Part - 3 - All Cue Cards

Part 3 belongs to all new cue cards from September to December 2022. We have written the answers on our own except for one topic. Hence, we hold the copyright status of the answers written by us. 1.  Describe an object you find particularly beautiful (For example, a painting, sculpture, piece of jewellery/furniture, etc.). 1. Do   you   think   there   are   more   beautiful   things   now   than  in  the   past? In my opinion, traditional art and sculptures are much more captivating. I think in the past, it was easier for artists to find shoppers in the form of kings and nobles and they could focus on their art without any financial worries. However, today it is much harder to earn money as an artist. The art being made today also reflects that – it is done more as a hobby rather than as a profession and the works produced are far behind those of the past. Moreover, nowadays artists rely on machine work instead of handmad...

Speaking Part 1 - January to April 2023

  Fast Food and Break Fast What do you have for breakfast? I prefer to have my favourite food items during the first meal of the day. Usually, I like wheat bread with freshly cooked vegetables like Okra, Turnip, beans and cauliflower. Along with this, I love to take a cup of tea. However, during weekends, my mother cooks stuffed bread for me, and amongst all these bread types, my favourite one is potato-filled bread with curd and homemade butter.  Do you eat fast food? Yes, I do, but once a fortnight, I prefer to have it. It is owing to the bad cholesterols present in junk food materials. In this category, I find cheese burst pizza, garlic bread and white sauce Italian pasta mouth-watering.  What are the different kinds of fast food in your country? Name them. India has an ocean of fast food materials. For instance, Chinese, Italian and American fast materials are the most popular ones in India. Moreover, we have traditional fast foods as well.  The first one is a sa...

New Speaking Questions - Part 1 or 3 The answers are purely based on novel ideas and belong to BAWA IELTS Ferozepur. We also observe the copyright status of answers given here.  Name  Is it easy for you to remember people’s names?  Yes, I always find it easy to remember the names of people since I have an elephant's memory. Moreover, I can easily memorise the mobile number of people.  However, I find it difficult when I have to recall the names of those who are from another culture, especially East and South Indian, owing to their uniqueness.   Do you do anything to help you remember people’s names?  Not all the time, I think it is necessary to use anything in remembering people’s names. More specifically, if the people are from my province Punjab, then I can remember easily because of similarity; however, if the people are from another culture, then I prefer to write their names on my pocket diary to remember them.  How do you feel when people ca...
