Mark here from MarkTeacher.com with another IELTS example question and
answer. This IELTS question is about your country. Is your country changing
rapidly? In my experience, I don't think the UK has changed very much in the last
decade or so compared to some other Asian countries I visited and lived in. I
think the UK is growing quite slowly, while cities, especially the capital
cities in countries like China and Japan, are evolving at an unbelievable rate. New
Asian cities tend to have incredibly up-to-date public transport, restaurants,
high-rise buildings, and apartments, while in the UK, the pace of life is somewhat
slower. That said, if you walk down the high street in the UK, one of the biggest
changes has probably been the gentrification of high streets and city
centres. I mean there's lots of multicultural restaurants, there's lots
of large supermarket chains, fashion outlets, and small boutiques - those have
become very commonplace. That's probably been the most notable change that I've
noticed in the last decade or so. Other than that, I think the UK has largely
stayed the same: its historic, diverse, and it's quite
unique. You can check out mark teacher comm for more IELTS courses lessons and tips!
