Some people argue that we should do research into our family history. Others agree that we should focus on the present and future generations. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.


It is a contentious issue whether we focus on researching family history or we must emphasise the present and future generations. Thus, this essay will address both schools of thought with a suitable judgment. 

On the one hand, finding family history is imperative in our lives. The primary is building family connections. Researching genealogy can make a great family activity, involving siblings, children, and grandchildren. It can bring family members together around a shared interest and also inspire intergenerational storytelling and sharing. Similarly, learning about common ancestors has a way of opening up doors of communication. Sometimes, research will even end up reconnecting long-lost relatives in surprising ways.

Another benefit is associated with social matters. To be more precise, this study offers the chance to meet other people who are likewise engaged in learning about their own families. There are plenty of online groups and forums that can offer conversation and community. Hence, it may be the best way to mushroom socialism. 

On the other hand, opposers of the former idea assert the past is behind us and the future is coming, but what matters is focusing on where we are right now. We may feel happy if we believe in doing present tasks positively. Additionally, the modern era witnessed an alarming rise in hectic schedules, owing to which it is necessary to focus on the present and future rather than the past. Therefore, if people keep focusing on the past only, they may lag in modern competition. Gone are the days when people had adequate time to focus on family history since they now have to work around the clock to make ends meet by ignoring research into family history. Therefore, it is imperative to focus on the present and future. 

To conclude, after this discussion, I firmly assert we must focus on getting information about our family history since ancestors play a significant role in our lives; however, we should not overlook our present and future because we live in a competitive era.

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...
