PART – 2

Describe a time when you were in a public place and you overheard a stranger talking on the phone.

You should say:

-Where you were

-When it happened

-What the person was talking about

-And explain how you felt after hearing the conversation

SAMPLE ANSWER

I remember a situation that happened about three months ago when I was sitting in a coffee shop near my college. I was waiting for one of my friends, who was running late, so I decided to order a drink and scroll through my phone.

While I was sitting there, a young man at the next table received a phone call. At first, I didn’t pay much attention, but he was talking quite loudly, so it was impossible not to overhear him. He seemed to be talking to his girlfriend, and from the tone of his voice, I could tell they were having an argument. He kept saying things like, “You never trust me,” and “It wasn’t my fault.”

The conversation lasted for around ten minutes, and I could see he was really upset. Everyone in the café could hear him, and a few people even looked uncomfortable.

I personally felt a bit awkward, because it was such a private conversation being discussed in public. However, at the same time, I also felt a bit sorry for him, since he was clearly under emotional stress. After a while, he left the café looking very upset.

That experience made me realize how easily we can lose our privacy in public spaces and how important it is to be careful about where and how we talk on the phone.

PART – 3

Do you think people talk too loudly on the phone in public places?
Yes, I think many people do. Some don’t realize that others can hear them, while others just don’t care. In crowded places like trains or cafés, it can be quite annoying for people nearby who are trying to relax or focus.

IELTS SPEAKING TEST

Why do people speak loudly on the phone?
There are a few reasons. Sometimes it’s because of background noise or a weak network connection. In other cases, people are just emotional — when they’re angry or excited, they naturally raise their voices without noticing.

Should phone calls be banned in some public areas?
I think yes, in certain places like libraries, hospitals, or theatres, it’s better to restrict phone use. It helps maintain silence and respect for others. However, in open places like parks or stations, people should just be more mindful rather than completely banned.

How can people be more considerate when using phones in public?
People should try to speak softly, move to a quiet corner, or use earphones. They can also text instead of calling if possible. Being aware of their surroundings and respecting others’ comfort is the key to polite public behavior.

IELTS SPEAKING TEST

Do you think it’s okay to listen to other people’s conversations if they’re speaking loudly?
Ideally, no. Even if someone is loud, it’s polite to avoid listening on purpose. But if it’s unavoidable, we should just ignore it and not gossip or share what we heard. Everyone deserves privacy, even in public spaces.
