IELTS SPEAKING INTERVIEW

PART – 1 INTRO

What is your full name?

My full name is Akakdha Tari.

How may I address you?

You may address me as Akakdha.

IELTS Speaking Interview

May I see your ID?

Sure, here it is.

Do you like traveling?

Not really, to be honest. I’m a creature of habit (someone who doesn’t like changes to routine), so I’m usually not keen to change my daily routine. When I do mix it up, it often makes me feel anxious and disoriented (not a clear mind). Furthermore, I have a fear or airplanes and get carsick, so traveling just isn’t for me.

IELTS Speaking Interview

Do you often travel by air?

Not at all! I try to avoid it at all costs (very seriously). If I must travel, I will take some motion sickness (getting sick from any kind of transportation) medicine and go by car or train. I was once on an airplane on my honeymoon that came very near to crashing, so my phobia (strong fear) stems from (comes from. Stem is the part where the flower grows) this.

How long was the longest trip you took?

I once had to go on business to the Philippines. It was a 24 hour flight! It was a nightmare (we saw this when something is very terrible). On top of this, I was seated next to a child who was relentlessly (not stopping) crying during the entire journey.

IELTS Speaking Interview

Which country would you like to travel to in the future?

I’m dying to (I really want to) go to Egypt. I’ve always dreamt of going there since I was a child, actually. I’m really fascinated by their ancient culture. I would be in awe of (amazed by) the Grand Pyramids I’m sure. Unfortunately, since I despise (hate) flying, I don’t think I’ll ever get there.

Would you like to travel to space?

Perhaps! I’m not sure how it feels to be in a rocket. I think it would be incredible to see a completely foreign galaxy (another world). I’m curious if other life forms (aliens) exist, so I would definitely go along on this journey to find out for myself. I also wonder if the moon is made out of cheese!

What is your favorite festival?

Hmm, that’s a tough question because I’m definitely a holiday person (a person who likes holidays), but I would have to say New Year’s Eve. I’m always keen (want) for change and new beginnings, so I love setting new goals at the start of each New Year, not to mention I really enjoy the parties. Second to this would be Valentine’s Day, since I’m a hopeless romantic (a very romantic person).

IELTS Speaking Interview

How do you celebrate the festival?

In my culture, it’s more very family-oriented holiday. We usually have a special family dinner at home followed by the countdown to midnight. However, in my culture we add something special to it. At the clock ticks down to midnight, we eat 12 grapes which signify a different wish for each month. After this, we go out to the city or town streets to drink with our friends and wish them a happy new year.

What is the most popular festival in your country?

Definitely Christmas, since I’m from a Catholic country. Nearly every town and city goes out of the way to deck (decorate) the streets out with Christmas lights and decorations. However, unlike other countries, we celebrate the epiphany, or day of the three wise men, on January 6 just as much at the 25th. This is the day in which we exchange gifts and watch parades.

Do you like western festivals?

Of course! They are part of my culture. I especially love Christmas, Easter, and New Years since they have always been part of my upbringing (childhood). However, I also find eastern festivals interesting. I lived in Vietnam for 2 years, and I was in awe (amazed) of the Lunar New Year and Mid-Autumn festival.

PART – 2 CUE CARD

Talk about an environmental problem you heard about in a news story recently

– What it is?

– Where is it happening?

– What problems does it cause?

SAMPLE ANSWER

Well, today, the world is facing several environmental issues which make our world a dangerous place to live in. We are all aware more or less of the environmental issues the world is facing in the recent era.

Today I would like to talk about one of the issues is air pollution. Well, I don’t think that I have to explain it has become fair pollution since it is one of the most burning environmental issues in today’s s world. Yet, in a simple world, air pollution is the type of environmental issue affecting the air due to harmful gases, smoke and primarily carbon emission, nitrogen and sulphur. Air pollution is the contamination of air due to the presence of poisonous substances in our earth’s atmosphere.

IELTS Speaking Interview

This air pollution, of course, is something that our world has been facing for thousands of years. However, since the industrial revolution started more than 200 years ago, it has rapidly gone from bad to worse. Because of this dangerous air pollution, the world is not facing only facing global warming due to carbon emission, destruction of the ozone layer as well as causing dangerous acid rain.

However, also, it affects many serious issues in human health. In fact, air pollution can make people very sick by making it difficult to breathe. Also, it causes some dangerous diseases such as lung cancer, respiratory infection and heart disease. According to the world health organization, more than 2 million people die annually from air pollution. Air pollution can be hazardous to children who are living in big cities due to bad smog.

Now, If people really want to debate this issue, first of they have to be aware of using too many cars as well as lesser electricity and gasoline because they can emit carbon emissions into the earth’s atmosphere. Hence, air pollution is a hazardous effect on our world.

PART – 3 FOLLOW UPS

What are some of the main environmental problems in your county?

My country’s major environmental problems are air pollution, land pollution, water pollution, and noise pollution. Many industrial areas release poisonous gases such as carbon, sulphur, and nitrogen also smock, which pollute the air and causes the tremendous effect. Another pollution is land pollution, nowadays use of plastic increase rapidly, which is a non-biodegradable product, and everyone throws it anywhere; therefore, many cities and beachside are affected highly.

Another thing is the pollution of water also became a major problem. In a recent survey, my country’s biggest river Ganga polluted with many wastes which are poisonous not for human but also for marine life, which is released by many big industries. Also, much waste is thrown by the citizen of the country due to a lack of restrictions.

IELTS Speaking Interview

Why should people be concerned about the environment?

If we do not take action and try to preserve a sustainable environment, then we will also become extinct in future like dinosaurs. The environmental condition would not be favourable to sustain life on earth. So to save our existence on earth, we need to save the environment.

How can people protect the environment?

People can protect the environment by using eco-friendly products that do not affect the environment. Individuals can share a car if their destinations are the same or if they are doing work in a similar company. Individuals can also use public transportation. Government should establish strict laws against the people who don’t protect the environment. Another thing is that we should grow more and more trees which help us in any way.
