IELTS tests the complete range of English language skills, which will commonly be encountered by students when studying or training in the medium of English and for immigration purposes. All candidates are tested in listening, reading, writing and speaking. Everyone takes the same listening and speaking test but the reading and writing tests vary according to the module.

WHERE AND WHEN CAN I TAKE AN IELTS TEST?
British councils offices in Islamabad, Karachi, Lahore, Peshawar, Multan and Quetta offer full testing facilities. It is not necessary to attend a preparation course though it is a good idea to prepare thoroughly beforehand at any suitable institution.
British Council Contact No.:0800-22000

In addition to British Council Pakistan, Australian Education Office (AEO) is also conducting IELTS testing at Karachi, Lahore & Islamabad.
AEO Contact No.: 042 627 8936

HOW MUCH WILL IELTS COST?
The standard IELTS fee is Rs. 8800. Candidates residing in cities where there is no IELTS center can submit their IELTS test fee through a bank draft of Rs 8800 drawn in favor of the appropriate British Council or AEO office.

According to www.britishcouncil.de/ e/english/ielts.htm, IELTS “is designed to assess the language ability of those who want to study or work where English is the language of communication. It conforms to the highest international standards of language assessment”. The test measures one’s competence in English language in listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. IELTS is recognised for course admissions by universities of UK, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, USA and increasingly in Germany and Europe too. It is also needed as a proof of one’s language abilities for immigration to Australia, New Zealand and Canada. But before sharing my views on the subject, I must mention that the objective of this article is not to criticise any individual IELTS instructor or institute for that matter. It’s just that I am thinking more and more about how commercialised our approach to impart education has grown.

Here I will talk specifically about the IELTS exam preparation institutes in Karachi, which are found in the area of Gulshan-e-Iqbal by the dozen. Let’s begin with their advertisements; which boldly claim that anyone can get good bands, language skills are evaluated on a scale from 0 bands (non-user) to 9 bands (expert user) in the IELTS Exams, without having a good command over the language. You also come across many ads claiming to have “top” Pakistani teachers. Then they also maintain that getting good bands is possible in a matter of few hours. Some even claim that no prior knowledge of English is necessary. Some boast that with their winning tips, students will obtain desired bands (scores) without really having to learn the language or attending tedious grammar or vocabulary classes. Three aspects are focused in almost all the ads, namely, “short duration”, “easy learning” and “higher bands”.

The common factor of the “free demos” that I attended was that both the teachers knew many tricks of the trade. One was more experienced than the other but both stressed that to get good bands in IELTS, one does not need to have a good command over the language. These instructors claim that even an illiterate person, having no base in English language, can earn higher bands in a matter of a few hours and one does not need to read or understand, say, the reading passage in order to give the correct answers.

Now without learning the language properly such a person might acquire from 1 to 4 bands according to IELTS Band Scores (see the IELTS band score key for the band scores and their corresponding language competence). And this is the point that has moved me to write this piece and this brings me to the crux of my write up too, because what we are hearing is that you can have good bands, let’s say anywhere from 7 to 9, but you may not need to posses equivalent good skills in English language. It’s like saying you can get a driving license without learning to drive. So the key to success is not hard work or mastering the language but the key is knowing some tricks!

To prove their claims true, the IELTS instructors show the students photocopies of the result sheets (known as the “test report form” for the IELTS) having higher bands. How do they achieve this? Well, they teach you various strategies for all the four tests/sections of IELTS, i.e. listening, speaking, reading and writing. Using these tips and tricks maximises your chances of giving the right answer, be it a classification question or selecting the right option. Sounds interesting?

To me it was more than merely interesting as I had myself taken the exam a couple of years back while doing my master’s in ELT (English Language Teaching). Not being able to afford a preparation course, both in terms of time and money, I thought of sitting for the exams without enrolling in a preparation course. However, I did prepare for the exams and here I must also acknowledge a few hours’ counseling with some basic information about the exams offered by a senior student at our university. Other than this the most important thing I relied on was my existing language ability, which I thought was modestly reasonable.

My 7 bands in the IELTS exam may not be a score to be proud of or something to boast about. Nevertheless, I believe that my score was a true representation of my linguistic abilities in the English language or quite close to it. Comparing my situation with the IELTS preparation courses conducted in our area, the question that arises in my mind is twofold: would I have been able to score the bands that I did score without possessing equivalent language skills and would I have still been able to do well if I did not have the language competence that I think I had?

I suppose that if I had known these so called “tricks” which are taught in these IELTS prep courses, I might have been able to score better. However, if I did not already have some language competence, would I have been happy for getting good bands without acquiring adequate command over the language or improving my existing language competence? You know taking the driving analogy a little further it implies being allowed to drive on the road without being taught to drive. Wouldn’t the IELTS score sheet have just been a piece of paper for me that I can maybe use in running ads for an IELTS institute or for a job as an IELTS instructor? It might also fulfill my visa requirement, but is that all there is to it?

One wonders what happens when a student of these IELTS instructors reaches the university of his or her dreams (with the so called “good” bands in the IELTS exams) and is told that their language does not meet the requirement of the course they wish to pursue and in order to attend their major course of study they must first enroll in basic/foundation English courses.

Such a situation will of course mean more time and money being invested for acquiring the required language proficiency. This is so because in many universities abroad one has to give concrete proof of one’s linguistic abilities and merely a piece of paper (the IELTS result sheet, in this case) will not be enough. And even the candidates appearing for the general IELTS have to have enough communication skills in the language which their result sheet claims them to possess.

Those of you who are planning to take a preparatory course in IELTS, do ask yourself the following questions:

· Will I not be required to exhibit language abilities corresponding to what my score sheet says?

· Wouldn’t my inability of doing so make my score sheet seem dubious and unreliable?

Now consider this scenario; as evidence of the credentials of an IELTS’ instructor, many of these institutes show the score sheets of the instructors’ former students. This only shows part of the picture. We don’t know how many students were taught in all, what level of language skills the successful students already possessed, and if any of the students attempted the test more than once, how many times did they take the course or attempt the test?

If there are a 100 students in one class and only 10 per cent of them get bands from 7 to 9, it is not a very big achievement, is it? And the situation becomes more dismal if we keep in mind that those 10 per cent students may already have had intermediate to advanced English language skills. So what about the other 90 per cent students? What bands did they achieve? In other words, the data presented is subjective at best.

Think twice before opting for an IELTS institute. I wonder if there is an institute that claims to equip the students with real knowledge of the language as well as tips to successfully obtain the desired scores.

The first day “free demo” can turn out to be rather misleading in some cases. As sometimes the institutes are not consistent with the tall claims they or their teachers make on day one, as happened in one case where a teacher was not regular and showed a highly non-professional attitude although the institute charged quite heftily for the IELTS classes.

One institute actually claimed to have on its faculty the “top and the most experienced IELTS teachers” on the planet. Ever wonder who evaluated or rated their teachers? Is there a recognised evaluation criterion for evaluating IELTS teachers worldwide other than the number of their students who got higher bands?

If the current trend continues, in the near future authors and administrators of IELTS examinations and the institutions using its scores for admission suitability will have to think seriously about the reliability of the IELTS scores of students coming from our part of the world. Then, they must either develop new crack and hack-proof tests or require students to take the test again upon arrival in the university chosen or the destination country. Otherwise, the test results will lose their significance and credibility resulting in another reason for others to point fingers at us.

Plan to reap long-term and concrete benefits. Learn the actual driving and do not be satisfied with just a paper which claims that you know driving. Seek the real knowledge and avoid short cuts.

It is not necessary to attend an IELTS preparation course though it is, of course, a good idea to prepare thoroughly for the test. The IELTS Specimen Materials have been produced according to Cambridge ESOL’s Question Paper Production cycle and are the only preparation resources that are endorsed by all three IELTS partners. 

A revised edition of the Specimen Materials will be available from 24 January 2005. This edition will contain a complete new Listening test and nine new Academic and General Training Writing tasks. There is also a detailed explanation of the revised assessment criteria for Writing tests (in use from January 2005), with 10 scripts rated according to the new rating scales, plus Examiner comments.

If you would like further assistance with test preparation, many IELTS test centers and language schools offer IELTS preparation courses. There are also other publications available from bookshops or direct from the publishers, which familiarize candidates with the format and style of the IELTS test.

Daybreak Trips by Coach

SPRING IS IN THE AIR!

Welcome to our Spring Daybreak program, which continues the tradition of offering daytrips and tours at unbeatable value for money. Premier Travel Services Limited or Millers Coaches will operate all the excursions in this brochure; both companies are part of the CHL Group, which owns Cambridge’s Cambus fleet.

WE’RE PROUD OF OUR TRADITION

Premier was established in 1936; the Company now offers the highest standards of coach travel in today’s competitive operating environment. Millers has an enviable reputation stretching back over the past 20 years, offering value for money coach services at realistic prices. We’ve traveled a long way since our early days of pre-war seaside trips. Now our fleet of 50 modern coaches (few are more than five years old) operates throughout Britain and Europe but we’re pleased to maintain the high standards of quality and service that were the trademark of our founders nearly sixty years ago.

EXCLUSIVE FEATURES

All Daybreak fares (unless specifically stated otherwise) include admission charges to the attractions, shows and exhibits we visit. Many full days scenic tours are accompanied by a fully trained English Tourist Board ‘Blue Badge’ guide or local experienced driver/guide. Some Daybreak include lunch or afternoon tea. Compare our admission inclusive fares and see how much you save. The cheapest is not necessarily the best and value for money is guaranteed with Daybreaks. If you compare our bargain Daybreak fares beware – most of our competitors do not offer an all-inclusive fare.

SEAT RESERVATIONS

We value the freedom of choice, so you can choose your seat when you book. The seat reservation is guaranteed and remains yours at all times when aboard the coach.

NO SMOKING COMFORT

With the comfort of our passengers in mind, coaches on all our Daybreaks are no smoking throughout. In the interests of fellow passengers’ comfort, we kindly ask that smokers observe our ‘no smoking’ policy. On scenic tours and longer journeys, ample refreshment stops are provided when, of course, smoking is permitted.

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Do I need to book?

Booking in advance is strongly recommended as all Daybreak tours are subject to demand. Subject to availability, stand-by tickets can be purchased from the driver.

What time does the coach leave?

The coach departs from Cambridge Drummer Street (Bay 12) at the time shown. There are many additional joining points indicated by departure codes in the brochure. If you are joining at one of our less popular joining points, you will be advised of your pick up time (normally by telephone) not less than 48 hours before departure. In this way, we can minimize the length of pick-up routes and reduce journey times for the majority of passengers.

What time do we get back?

An approximate return time is shown for each excursion. The times shown serve as a guide, but road conditions can sometimes cause delay. If your arrival will be later than advertised, your driver will try to allow for a telephone call during the return journey.

Where can I board the coach?

All the Daybreaks in the brochure leave from Cambridge Drummer Street (Bay 12) at the time shown. Many Daybreaks offer additional pick-ups for pre-booked passengers within Cambridge and the surrounding area. This facility must be requested at the time of booking.

Reading Task 1

Wind Power in the US

Only now are technological advances beginning to offer hope that wind power will come to be accepted as a reliable and important source of electricity. There have been significant successes in California, in particular, where wind farms now have a capacity of 1500 megawatts, comparable to a large nuclear or fossil-fuelled power station, and produce 1.5 per cent of the state’s electricity.

Nevertheless, in the U.S., the image of wind power is still distorted by early failures. One of the most persistent criticisms is that wind power is not a significant energy resource. Researchers at the Battelle Northwest Laboratory, however, estimate that today wind turbine technology could supply 20 per cent of the electrical power the country needs. As a local resource, wind power has even greater potential. Minnesota’s energy commission calculates that a wind farm on one of the state’s southwestern ridges could supply almost all that state’s electricity. North Dakota alone has enough sites suitable for wind farms to supply more than a third of all electricity consumed in the continental US.

The prevailing notion that wind power is too costly results largely from early research, which focused on turbines with huge blades that stood hundreds of meters tall. These machines were not designed for ease of production or maintenance, and they were enormously expensive. Because the major factors influencing the overall cost of wind power are the cost of the turbine and its supporting systems, including land, as well as operating and maintenance costs, it is hardly surprising that it was thought at the time that wind energy could not be supplied at a commercially competitive price. More recent developments such as those seen on California wind farms have dramatically changed the economic picture for wind energy. These systems, like installations in Hawaii and several European countries have benefited from the economies of scale that come through standardized manufacturing and purchasing. The result has been a dramatic drop in capital costs: the installed cost of new wind turbines stood at $1000 per kilowatt in 1993, down from about $4000 per kilowatt in 1980, and continues to fall. Design improvements and more efficient maintenance programs for large numbers of turbines have reduced operating costs as well. The cost of electricity delivered by wind farm turbines has decreased from about 30 cents per kilowatt-hour to between 7 and 9 cents, which is generally less than the cost of electricity from conventional power stations. Reliability has also improved dramatically. The latest turbines run more than 95 per cent of the time, compared with around 60 per cent in the early 1980s. Another misconception is that improved designs are needed to make wind power feasible. Out of the numerous wind turbine designs proposed or built by inventors or developers, the propeller-blade type, which is based on detailed analytical models as well as extensive experimental data, has emerged as predominant among the more than 20,000 machines now in commercial operation world-wide. Like the gas-driven turbines that power jet aircraft, these are sophisticated pieces of rotating machinery. They are already highly efficient, and there is no reason to believe that other configurations will produce major benefits. Like other ways of generating electricity, wind power does not leave the environment entirely unharmed. There are many potential problems, ranging from interference with telecommunications to impact on wildlife and natural habitats. But these effects must be balanced against those associated with other forms of electricity generation. Conventional power stations impose hidden costs on society, such as the control of air pollution, the management of nuclear waste and global warming. As wind power has been ignored in the US over the past few years, expertise and commercial exploitation in the field have shifted to Europe. The European Union spends 10 times as much as the US government on research and development of wind energy. It estimates that at least 10 per cent of Europe’s electrical power could be supplied by land-based wind-turbines using current technology. Indeed, according to the American Wind Energy Association, an independent organization based in Washington, Denmark, Britain, Spain and the Netherlands will each surpass the US in the generating capacity of wind turbines installed during the rest of the decade.
