IELTS SPEAKING FORECAST 2014 Feb - April 2014.2 - 2014.4

These forecasts are applicable to China and Australia, but I'm not sure about other countries.

Maybe countries in a similar time zone may use the same topic on same day, but I'm not sure.

There is a significant overlap in each round of forecast, and some topic could be used in a new topic by slight modification. So hope you find my answers in this blog useful. :-)

There are nearly 50 topics, so I pasted them in a word document below:
