IELTS SPEAKING FULL INTERVIEW
PART 1 – INTRO PART
What is your full name?
My name is Sarita Sharma.
Can I see your ID?
Here it is! This is my passport.
Where are you from?
I belong to Jaipur which is in the state of Rajasthan.
Do you work or study?
I work with an IT company.
What is considered a typical food in your state?
Gujarat is primarily a place where you see most people are vegetarian due to the influence of Jain vegetarianism. Many communities, however, do include seafood, chicken, and goat in their diet. The cuisine changes with the seasonal availability of vegetables.
Do parents usually have dinner with their children in your country?
Traditionally, Indians have supper together but I don’t know it seems that this culture is under threat for various reasons. If I talk about my family, these days it gets difficult due to different working hours but we do have one meal together. Sometimes dinners are difficult but breakfast is always together. Well, it was about my case but in general, I assume that the same pattern might go. It’s because in the morning there is a high possibility of having food or breakfast together but once you go out of home for your job or study, time files, and it’s difficult to adjust the timing with all.
In your opinion, is it important that parents eat together?
Absolutely, I personally feel it’s very important that parents and children eat together as this is an opportunity to learn and share the personal update. It’s more of a quality time spent with your family.
PART 2 – CUE CARD
Your favorite TV show
– Name of the show and when it is telecasted
– What the theme of the show is
– Why you like it
SAMPLE ANSWER:-
My favourite TV show is ‘The great Indian laughter challenge’. It is telecasted on Star One channel on every Friday evening from 9 o’clock to 10 o’clock. In this program, comedy artists from our country and neighbouring counties come on stage to perform. They present their comedy items to make the audience and the judges’ laugh.
This program is divided into 4 parts and one of the participants is eliminated in each round. At the end the audience and the judges select one winner. I often watch this program. It is telecasted at the perfect time because on Friday night people are tired from the whole week’s work and if they watch this program they can be relaxed. It is my most favourite program because I like the performance of the participants. They come with originality in their ideas, creativity and uniqueness in their presentation.
I believe that this program which has worked as a platform for some creative and genius comedians to show their talent. I laugh a lot when I see the program. I have recorded a few episodes of the program for repeat viewing also. Especially, I like the performance of Mr. Sunil Pal and Mr. Raju Shrivastav. I also like to the judges and the anchor of the program because they also complement well with the overall humorous effect of this program. According to me it is one of the best programs I have ever seen on TV.
PART 3 – FOLLOW UPS
Is watching TV a useful way to get relaxed?
No, watching television is actually a passion activity. We should do some interactive or creative activities if we want to get relaxed. Such activities are helpful in relaxing our mind. But watching television can get some rest for our body only, which is perceived as relaxed, and this is a wrong understanding. True relaxation must work on both the mind and the body, which cannot be fulfilled by watching Television.
How do TV programs influence our society?
TV programs do have an influence on our society. The plots in serials are often followed by some people in their real life. In this context, television program makers must prepare their content by keeping moral, culture and social values in mind. But if they show that evils win over good things, the society may reflect this because many viewers feel attached by the characters of TV programs and they often forget the difference between reality and imagination.
What are the benefits and drawbacks of watching TV?
TV is a useful tool to get entertainment, news and knowledge. However, if we watch television for longer period of time, it affects our eyes and our body. It is even more harmful to children because they live in the world of their own imagination, which is further fascinated by animation or fantasy based programs. This keeps them away from the real life and inhibits their mental growth.
