CELPIP SURVEY RESPONSE

CELPIP Survey Response by RupIELTS Institute ( Solved ) guides about how to respond in response to a survey question in CELPIP exam.

Question:

1.City Development Survey

You live in a small town of 10,000 people. A large green area in the centre of town is undeveloped. The city has sent out an opinion survey to see what residents would like to have built in that area.

Choose the option that you prefer. Why do you prefer your choice? Explain the reasons for your choice. Write about 150-200 words.

Option A: Shopping Complex: This shopping mall would include restaurants, a large supermarket, and a movie theatre.

Option B: Recreational Park: This park would include a sports complex, a large green area, and a small petting zoo.

 

Answer:

I appreciate the authorities’ concern regarding the development of this town. As far as my opinion is concerned, I think that the construction of a shopping complex will be more beneficial than a recreational park.

There will be numerous benefits of having a shopping mall in this town. Currently, the local people have to go to the nearby city if they want quality and variety in the products that they buy. So, a shopping complex will help the residents in all their shopping needs. However, there is no dearth of green areas in and around this town which lessens the need of any kind of park.

Apart from this, the inclusion of a restaurant and a movie theatre will take care of the recreational needs of the locals and there will be no need to go out of the city to seek such facilities. Moreover, these facilities will also attract outsiders into the town and hence, it will give a boom to the local businesses as well.

Therefore, keeping in mind its immediate and long term benefits, I would like to have a shopping complex in my town.

 

2.Family Picnics

The City Manager is surveying the opinion of the community about family picnics held in public parks. On the one hand, public parks are created for people to enjoy nature. On the other hand, large family gatherings can be noisy and occupy a lot of park space. The City Manager has asked you to complete an opinion survey.

Option A: Family picnics should not be allowed in public parks.

Option B: Family picnics should be allowed in public parks.

 

 

 

I appreciate the authorities’ concern regarding family gatherings in public park and as far as my opinion is concerned, I think family picnics should not be allowed in public parks.

There will be numerous drawbacks of having large family gathering in public parks. Firstly, the parks are structured for enjoy the peace and the beauty of the nature. Some of these parks have already sign board of “DO NOT EAT’’ or “DO NOT LITTER”. This is because people create parks very messy whenever they bring food with them in parks.

Moreover, some residents are living near by parks. They already have issues regarding parking space because the visitors park their vehicles in the front of the park, so there is very low space left to park vehicles for residents. In this way, if families would be allow to make gathering in parks should not be a good idea. People can go another place for enjoy meals with family but parks will not rebuild if they are ruined once.

Therefore, keeping in mind the safety and beauty of the parks family gathering should not permitted in public parks.

 

3. Field Trip Transportation

Your children’s grade 5 class teacher likes to take the children on field trips to museums or parks. Sometimes the teacher takes the children on public buses. Some parents are unhappy. They say the school should always use school buses even though it is more expensive. You have been asked to respond to an opinion survey.

Choose the option that you prefer. Why do you prefer your choice? Explain the reasons for your choice. Write about 150-200 words.

Option A: Public Transit: I think it’s okay for children to travel on public transit.

Option B: School Buses: I would prefer children only travel on school buses.

 

I appreciate the authorities’ concern regarding children travel and as far as my opinion is concerned, I think that children should travel on school buses.

There will be numerous benefits of children having travel on school buses. Firstly, by travelling through school buses is much safer instead of public transit. There is the responsibility of the teacher in school bus or there is a guide or conductor present in the school bus to take care of the children. The school should always use school buses for the field trips because the children will be in discipline. On the other hand, if children travels through public transit there is less chance for teachers to take seats for their students in same rows.

However, public transit provides travel for students but there is no responsibility of the vehicles maintenance whereas, school took responsibility for their transportation maintenance.

Therefore, keeping in the mind the safety of the children i would prefer children should travel on school buses even though its more expensive.

 

 

4. Field Trip Transportation

Your children’s grade 5 class teacher likes to take the children on field trips to museums or parks. Sometimes the teacher takes the children on public buses. Some parents are unhappy. They say the school should always use school buses even though it is more expensive. You have been asked to respond to an opinion survey.

Choose the option that you prefer. Why do you prefer your choice? Explain the reasons for your choice. Write about 150-200 words.

Option A: Public Transit: I think it’s okay for children to travel on public transit.

Option B: School Buses: I would prefer children only travel on school buses.

Both the options have some advantages, as I can see. On the whole, however, I would like to prefer that children only travel on school bus becaus eof so many reasons.

Firstly, school bus will be much safer and reliable then the public transit. That is mostly the school responsibility. On the other hand, kids feel lelaxed as they often go on the school bus and they are in the same kind of group as they were in school.

Secondly, public trasit has to do more stops on the way that will take much longer then the school bus. Most of the time there will not be enough space for the whole group to go in the same bus.

Finally, It will be more joyful if all the kids went togerther on school bus they could plan to play some games on the way. They have more time to interact with each other, share some personal informaton and make new friends. Also, kids can share their food as well.

I think these are the valid reasons to choose school bus rather then public transport.

5. Online vs. Print News Survey

Your local newspaper is experiencing low sales of its newspapers since many readers are now choosing the online version. Its current number of online subscribers is now three times the number of print subscribers. The newspaper has sent a survey to all of its print and online subscribers to see whether there is enough demand to keep the print version.

Choose the option that you prefer. Explain the reasons for your choice. Why do you prefer your choice? Write about 150-200 words.

Option A: Stop producing the print version of the newspaper.

Option B: Keep producing both the print and online versions.

 

I appreciate the authorities’ concern regarding the newspaper versions and as far as my opinion is concerned, i think that both the print and online version will be beneficial instead of only online version.

There will be numerous benefits of having both versions. I know, in this modern era every news related to this world we can get from the internet, but we can not neglect the old generation. The old generation has less knowledge to use the internet. Using the mobile, laptop are hard for them. Most of the grandparents are believes that they are comfortable to read the newspapers instead of using the internet.

Moreover, there are some places in this world which has no internet connection but they have newspaper service over there, then how can we think about to stop the print version of newspaper. We are concerned about our new generation needs and development but we can not ignore the basic needs of the old generation. They do not have enough interest to know about to use the internet.

Therefore, keeping in mind the source of knowledge and entertain of some old generation keep producing both the print and online version.
