I am a very accomplished chef and have even considered cooking as a full-time career. The reason why I can cook so well is that I grew up in a family of professional chefs and would watch and help out from a young age. I would attribute my love of cooking to these early years in the kitchen.

Example: 

How are state and public schools alike?

There is a world of difference between private and public schools, especially in regards to the quality of courses that they offer.  One of the major contrasts is the teaching quality, as private schools can afford to pay larger salaries and so attract teachers of a higher caliber.

Speaking from experience, as I’ve travelled extensively, I have never visited a city anywhere in the world with which offers as many activities as Taipei. We have mountains and national parks, beaches and two major rivers along which the city has built extensive parks and recreation facilities. And we have so many great places to eat. My hometown is an absolute hive of activity.

5. Questions with Negatives 負面問題

  • What don’t you like?

Example: 

What do you not like about your hometown?

While my hometown is unique and I have a great fondness for it, there are several things that I do not like about my hometown. I dislike the fact that people ride their bikes on the sidewalk. I am a great proponent of bikes and recognize the benefits of “last mile” public transport, I believe that bikes should only be allowed in dedicated bike lanes and not near pedestrians. In this way, we could walk without the fear of being run over by bicyclists, often riding at a high speed.

6. Questions with Opinions 表達意見

Question Types

  • State opinion immediately
  • Explain the point more clearly

Task Requirement

  1. Give a result in support

Example: 

What is your opinion of vaping and the laws restricting e-cigarettes?

Vaping is a form of smoking and for the Government to outlaw vaping, but not outlaw cigarettes or tobacco products in general is inconsistent and discriminatory. I base this opinion on the fact that smoking is detrimental to an individual’s health and to public health overall. Government expenditure on health services would fall markedly was smoking to be outlawed and there is a case for this. However, the argument that some forms of smoking should be prohibited while others are allowed is inconsistent and has no basis in fact.

7. Questions on People & Places 人物／地點

Question Types

  • State opinion immediately
  • Explain the point more clearly

Task Requirement

  1. State what you least like/enjoy
  2. Give a result in support

Example: 

Do/Did you have a favorite teacher?

Certainly. My academic life has been enhanced by several outstanding teachers several of whom I would call my ‘favorite’. One of the most interesting courses I have ever taken was a high school course on the History of Jazz Music.  Our instructor was a French teacher, who had a deep appreciation of Jazz music and was able to share that passion with us as students. The course started with the traditions of West African music that were brought to the America’s by slaves and then followed how these rhythms were shaped and found new expression – finally arriving at what we today call Jazz.
