Answering:
Well, I am fortunate to have visited so many distant places in my life.
Some of them are known for great environs, of course.
The one I am going to talk about is a hill station.
It is called Kumili. It is border a point in the Idukki district.
It is some 90 kilometres away from my place.
I went to this place a few years’ back as part of a pleasure trip.
It was in September 2004, if I remember right.
Actually it was a pleasure trip we friends organized all by ourselves.
We were five, and were traveling in a car.
It all went like this. We started off in the early morning itself.
I need not say that the trip itself was really fascinating.
The road to Kumili is really adventurous and breathtaking.
As the road was winding with sharp hairpin curves,
It took nearly 3 hours to get there.
Right after reaching there we took our breakfast
Then we went for sightseeing.
Yes, Kumili has great things to offer for tourists.
It is a calm and quite place with beautiful environment.
There are many things that attract people to this place.
Primarily, its height and the resultant weather.
It is cold up there, and the whole hill lock is full of trees.
The road, at some places, is highly dangerous.
Because they are cut along the hillside
and these is huge raven at some sides.
Secondly, Kumily has some beautiful streams and small water falls
We visited some of them, and we had a beautiful natural bath at one.
That was a rejuvenating experience. The water was so cold and feel was great.
We took a lot of photographs on the way, too.
On our way back we stopped at some places
for enjoying the natural beauty from distance.
We had a different experience out of that one-day trip.
That is all about the distant place I visited.
Take this as a token answer, and you may select your destination: moonnar, idukki, vazhachal, ponmudi, ooty, nilgiris or whatever, and develop an answer in accordance with their features and significance. Please try to apply the frame of the above answer. Words, steps, personal phrases, vocabulary, divisions and conclusion. Good luck.

A tree found commonly in your state: cue card for IELTS model answer
A tree found commonly in your state:
Two minutes’ exercise: Cue card
Well, my state is known for great green cover.
And it has great wealth of tree varieties, too
The one I would like to talk about is the most common coconut tree.
To begin with, this tree is so common in our state.
And our state is named after this tree.
That is, Keralam in Malayalam means the land of Kera trees.
Something special about this tree, I think, is that it is ubiquitous.
There is no family in the countrysides without at least a coconut tree.
Coming to its other features, it is a tree of great significance.
Primarily, it is a tree of spiritual and cultural significance.
That is, coconut is seen as a sign of wealth and prosperity.
And people use it on all major occasions:
Like marriages, poojas, rituals and ceremonies.
Secondly, all the parts of this tree are useful someway.
Its trunk is so hard and lasting that people use it for furniture.
Its leaves are also useful. Plaited leaves are used for thatching roofs
And coconut kernel and oil products are widely used in Kerala dishes
And finally, its shell and husk are raw materials.
They are used for coir products and many artifacts.
All the other parts, say, its dry bunches,
its pods and leaf bones, to mention a few, are used as firewood.
Well, it would be unfair if I don’t mention about tender coconut.
It is a great health drink, which both the natives and tourists like alike.
Even doctors recommend it. It is a rejuvenating drink for patients.
Those who suffer from dehydration, diarrhoea etc get speedy recovery.
So this tree is socially, medically and spiritually significant.
That is all about it.
Take this as a token answer, and you may select a tree of your like: Mango, jack tree, banyan, palm, rubber, teak, mahagony etc. and develop an answer in accordance with their significance. Please try to apply the frame of the above answer. Words, steps, personal phrases, vocabulary, divisions and conclusion. Good luck. jaypeesukham@yahoo.com

Competition promotes selfishness and destroys humility in children. So competition of any type needs to be discouraged.
Argue for and against this statement.

Still competition tests one
It is an opportunity
For
It promotes 'win-somehow' attitude
Ignores limitations
Encourages unhealthy practices
Winner takes all. Breeds selfishness
The participants get neglected.
Winning is in achievement
Some are obsessed with it
Against
It is an opportunity to excel
Failure leads to competence
The end is to win not to defeat
Great winners are humble
Winning promotes humility
Identifies strengths and weaknesses.
Promotes hardwork-success
Concl:
Not a thing that does not have a side effect
Everything comes with merits and demerit
We need to be wise to identify the good
