IELTS Speaking part 3:
1 How can rivers/lakes benefit local people?
They can offer many benefits to the local community. The locals can use water from them as drinking water supplies and for household chores such as washing clothes. Rivers and lakes also support local agriculture. They can be used for irrigation and their silt enriches and replenishes the area around them, creating fertile lands which can produce a large number of good-quality crops. Another benefit is that they are nursery grounds for fish species, shrimp, and other aquatic organisms, which supports fishing and aquaculture for the locals. This provides an important source of protein for people’s diets and employment for millions of people. Furthermore, large and navigable ones can also be used as a lower-cost and more efficient way of transporting huge amounts of merchandise than trucks. Some such rivers that I know are the Mississippi and Missouri in the USA, and in Vietnam, we have the Mekong. Besides, many fast-flowing rivers, such as the Columbia River, and again, the Mekong river, can be a source of renewable energy to produce hydropower electricity. Another function I think most lakes and rivers can offer is leisure activities such as fishing and canoeing.
2 Do you think rivers/lakes attract tourists?
Yes, I think they do. It is partly because the water scenery is very pleasant, beautiful, and calming to look at. Tourists like to visit a lake or a river to refresh their minds by spending time in nature and participating in a wide range of water leisure activities such as boating, kayaking, and fishing. Many tourists come to my hometown, Buon Ma Thuot city, to admire the beauty of various primitive lakes such as the Ea Kao and the Lak.
3 How do rivers/lakes affect local tourism?
They can greatly benefit tourism in the community in many ways. They provide sources of water and silt that can replenish and enrich the around area, so usually, lakes and rivers are surrounded by plants and trees. So tourists, especially nature-loving ones, can be irresistibly tempted to choose a place with a lake or river for holiday to admire the view of the glittering and sparking water and vivid green vegetation. Besides, lakes and rivers are usually nursery grounds for birds, so they can help tourism in the local by attracting tourists that are bird lovers. On top of that, they can also entice visitors that are into aquatic leisure activities such as boating, fishing, and kayaking.
4 Are rivers/lakes good for transport? Why?
I think it depends on their navigability. For example, small rivers and lakes with limited water depth cannot facilitate transportation by large ships, and those with fast-flowing currents may not be capable of assisting a small boat in crossing them. Also, rivers and lakes cannot be operated for transportation throughout the year as water may freeze during winter or water level may go down too much during summer. On the other hand, navigable ones can be used effectively as a means of transport. Waterway does not require any cost of construction and maintenance, and the operating cost of inland water transport is very low. Plus, ships can carry an enormous amount of heavy and bulky goods. So you can see that rivers and lakes can provide a viable alternative or addition to road and rail transport. The Great Lakes on or near the Canada-United States border, and the Mississippi and Missouri rivers in the USA are notable examples of many crucial water transportation networks in the world.
