IELTS SPEAKING FULL INTERVIEW:-
PART – 1 INTRO PART
What is your full name?
My name is Gurleen Bhatia.
How may I address you?
You may address me as Gurleen.
Can I see your ID?
Sure, this is my passport.
Where do you live?
I live in Pune.
Tell about a sport that is interesting to you. What is it? Do you like to play this sport yourself? Do you follow professional teams?
Figure skating is a sport that interesting to me. I don’t do it myself, it’s much too hard, but I enjoy watching professional skaters. I often watch the national and regional competitions.
Why do you like this sport?
I like it because it takes a lot of skill and grace. It’s beautiful to see. And I really admire the skates. It takes a lot discipline to be a champion skater.
Do you enjoy playing sports or doing other activities? Why or why not?
I don’t play sports much. I like watching skating, but I don’t skate myself. I’m not really interesting in soccer or other ball sports. I like to go bike riding, though. I guess that’s my sport. Whenever the weather is nice, I try to get outside on my bike. It feels good to be outside and get some exercise. It makes me feel relaxed and healthy.
In your city or town, what kinds of places are available for sports and other outdoor activities?
We have a lot of parks and most of them have a soccer field or a baseball or a basketball court, or something like that. They also have walking trails and biking trails. The city also runs a few public swimming pools, though they can get very crowded. If you take a short trip outside of the city, you can find a lot of opportunities for hiking and biking.
What kinds of things do you enjoy doing on weekends?
I’m so busy during the week that on weekends I just want to relax. I like to have a lot of unscheduled time to just rest, maybe read, take a walk, talk to friends, just little things like that.
Do you generally prefer to spend a day off from work or school at home, or do you like to go out to other places? Why?
Generally, I prefer to spend my days off at home. It’s easier to relax that way. But I like to go out, too, to see my friends. Sometimes we meet at a café or at the movies. If I can relax at home all day, then it’s fun to go out in the evening with my friends.
Why do you like to spend time with on your days off?
I like to spend time with some of my close friends. I’m not married and my family isn’t nearby, but I have some close friends that I enjoy spending time with. We have a favourite restaurant that we like to go to. We usually eat there on Sunday.
PART – 2 CUE CARD
Describe a relative who you are like.
– Who the relative is and how close you are to them
– What makes you and your relative talk?
– Why you think you and your relative have these shared qualities
And describe what you enjoy about your relationship with your relatives
SAMPLE ANSWER:-
Everyone says I’m lot like my dad, because we look a lot alike. But, truthfully, I’m lot more like my mom. Part of the reason my mom and I are so similar is that we spend so much time together. Besides spending one year abroad, I’ve lived with my mom for my whole life. My parents split up ten years ago and ever since then my mom and I have become very close.
My mom and I have the same taste in a lot of things, such as food, fashion, and literature. We both love to eat spicy food, and we both love to bake sweets. Oh, and neither of us ever start the day without our morning cup of green tea. It was weird when I first realized that I could borrow my mom’s clothes. I guess she’s always just kept up with modern fashion unlike some of my friend’s mothers. We both like long skirts and warm sweaters and neither of us ever wear jeans. My mom and I both like to read as well. Ever since I was little my mother always read to me before bed. Sometimes she still reads out loud to me just for fun.
I guess it’s natural for a person to share some of the same qualities as one or both of their parents. But I also think that part of the reason we are also is just that we become dependent on each other. I’m an only child, so my mom always had lots of time to spend with me.
PART – 3 FOLLOW UPS
Do you enjoy spending time with relatives? Why or why not?
Yes, I love getting together for family functions because it’s nice to catch up on each other’s lives and see how people have changed.
What types of traditions do you and your relatives have?
We used to have a lot more traditions when were kids. For example, every New Year, we would have a big party at my grandfather’s house, and all of the kids would collect a lot of money. We also used to have a big summer picnic for all of the birthdays that happened in the summer. I miss those traditions.
Do you think family members are more important than friends? Why or why not?
I think it depends on where you are at in life. at some points in my life, my mom has been the most important person, and at other times I have been closer to one of my friends.
Do you think having a good relationship with relatives is important to most people? Why or why not?
I think that depends on the individual person. I know some people who are very close to their cousins or their parents. I know other people who always fight with their relatives and don’t like to spend time with them. Some of my friends see their grandparents or uncles and aunts often, and others don’t. but even though people have different kinds of relationships with their relatives, I think everybody feels that it’s important to know that you have a family who cares about you. You may spend a lot or a little time with your relatives, but it’s important to know that they are there.
How do family members help each other?
Family members can help each other in many ways, emotionally and materially. Older family members serve as role models for younger family members. Parents, older siblings, and family members can provide guidance and advice to their younger relatives. Family members provide each other with companionship. They can also help each other with material things, like lending money or offering a place to stay, or helping to find a job. Grandparents sometimes help take care of their grandchildren. There are a lot of different ways that family members help each other.
