IELTS SPEAKING TEST
Part 2
Describe an activity that you do after work?
You should say
- what it is
- when and where you do it
- who you do it with
- how you feel about it
Sample Answer
I am working at Saraswat Bank. ( You can write here your company’s name).
If you pardon my expression, I am the breadwinner of my family. But, a man does not live by bread alone. We need art, poetry, music , and other joyful things too.
To fend off the work pressure, we all need to do some recreational activities.
I usually come home at 6:30 p.m. After having my evening tea, I prefer listening to music on my Sony headphones.
My son (or my wife/ my brother/my father) gave them to me on my last birthday.
I am a huge Sonu Nigam fan ( or Justin Bieber fan/ Britney Spears fan). I like Bollywood movie songs sung by Sonu Nigam. And when it is the combination of Sonu’s voice and A.R. Rahman’s music, then there is nothing else that can match that joy.
In my opinion, listening to music is a soulful experience.
It’s a solitary activity. But, sometimes I do it with my son, when he plays his favorite songs on our Phillips music system. He is a connoisseur of old movie songs. And he often plays old romantic songs of Dev Anand.
As I said, it’s not just music only that makes our life beautiful. There is a special kind of joy that we derive from good literature. I am a huge fan of spiritual books.
Of course, I am not a voracious reader. But, I like reading books in my free time.
I go to my son’s study room (or my study room / my father’s room) and read books like Bhagwad Geeta.
After a long and tiring day, we need some words of motivation. And for this, we have this beautiful message from Bhagwad Geeta that we should do our duty without expecting rewards.
And I should also mention here that this book was also a gift from my father. There can be no better gift than this divine book that is full of spiritual as well as worldly wisdom in it.

Part 3
Why do some people enjoy extreme sports?
In my opinion, people who do adventurous things and take part in intensive sports have their own reasons to do so.
But when we look closely at these people, we realize that it all boils down to the inherent nature of humankind to explore new avenues and have some thrilling experience from it.
Our ancestors did that, and perhaps that is the reason that we evolved as a dominant species on the planet earth
Are men more likely to do adventure sports than women?
It’s a false notion that male sex is more adventures than the opposite sex.
They both belong to the same species, and they inherit the same genes.
Perhaps this may sound like as if a feminist is speaking, but, as far as I am concerned, females have very few opportunities and means ( click here) to be adventurous and take part in sports that are generally known as ‘extreme sports’.
What are some popular outdoor activities in India?
For this I only need to look back on my childhood, and I tell you that playing cricket is the most popular outdoor activity, especially for boys. Girls play badminton and other sports.
Today we also see the rising number of people who go to public pools for swimming.
What do young people do in groups?
Young people these days simply like to hang out with each other on weekends.
They gather at tea-shops or cafes or plan dinners in the evening. In India, we can’t exclude cinema going on Sunday evenings. This activity has resumed after the long period of lockdown when everyone was forced to be confined to his or her house.
