IELTS SPEAKING INTERVIEW

PART – 1 INTRO

What is your name?

My name is Waqe Rawe.

How may address you?

You may address me as Waqe.

May I see your ID?

Sure, here it is.

Do you use apps?

I’m a bit of an app addict. My favourite app at the moment is one called Stitcher. It allows you to listen to podcasts and helps you discover new podcasts. You can download them and then listen to them whenever you have time.

IELTS Speaking Interview,

Do you think you use the internet too much?

I think most people do these days. My problem is that there are so many sites and apps that you end up checking them way too often and this wastes lots of time. It can also be a bit anti-social if you are checking your phone all the time when you are with other people.

How will the internet develop in the future?

I think it will be more on mobile phones than computers. Smart phones are becoming more powerful and more affordable all the time, so I think we will see a shift from people using the internet on desktop computers to mobiles and apps rather than traditional websites.

IELTS Speaking Interview,

Are there any negative things about the internet?

Being connected all of the time is not a good thing. Before you had to sit down at your computer and log on and that took time, so you didn’t do it so much. Now all people have to do is look at their phone and this is too much for me. I’ve been trying to leave my phone at home when I socialise with friends and family to stop myself from focusing too much on the phone rather than them.

IELTS Speaking Interview,

Model Answer

Cricket is a globally renowned sport and in Cape Town, I like to play cricket in?the evening. I usually play cricket in the evening with my college friends.?It has turned into a habit for me to play cricket for around two to three hours?in the evening on the small field beside my residence. I have formed a group to?assist me in the sport. All of them are almost a similar age of mine and we?have born and brought up in this street in Cape Town.

So, the bonding among?is stronger and when I proposed to start the game into our local field, all of?them agreed collectively without any hesitation. With the collective?contribution, we bought necessary elements for the sport like a cricket bat,?balls, and wooden stamps. Since this is not played on a professional level, we?did not buy professional tools like helmets, pads, and guards, etc. We use?tennis balls and scotch tapes to make the balls run faster. Interestingly, we do not hit sixes as there are chances to lose the ball when a six is made.

IELTS Speaking Interview,

I usually go play at the small playground right beside the Strand Street. Earlier,?the place was bare but with the advancement of the modern age, it is being filled?up with structures and only the playground is left. In my childhood the?playground was larger in size but not it has been reduced to a great extent. It?becomes difficult for us to play cricket and interestingly we cannot make?strong strokes lest we lose the ball. So, we are to play with limitations as we do?not have any access to any renowned playgrounds or fields.

Moreover, we?cannot afford to be a member of those expensive playgrounds. Thus we are?happy with our tiny field and been playing cricket for long years. But it is?unknown how long we could continue our cricket on this ground. Usually,?our game is set for 20 over altogether and we finish it by dusk.?Following the standard rule, cricket requires 22 players (at least) and three?umpires to decide the win or lose. But since this is a local game of us, we have?modified the game a bit for our handiness. The cricket team consists of seven?members.

IELTS Speaking Interview,

Each of the team has seven members and there are 14 members?during the play and we also have some spectators around. They watch and?enjoy the game. When I participate in the game, I am assigned as a fast bowler?and allowed to bat in the third-down position. Generally, we do not have any?third umpire and there is only one who is selected from one of the playing?teams or from the spectators around (if someone agrees).?

IELTS Speaking Interview,

I enjoy the sport indeed as it is the only way for me to pass my leisure hours. I?wait around the day to start cricket. When I get back home from college, I take?some food and get out with the cricket bat. Interestingly, we have only two?teams in the street who are interested in cricket and the necessary sporting?tools and materials are distributed among the players. So, each of them brings?the assigned materials like a bat, balls or stamps, etc. The way we play in

unconventional but it is highly amusing for us. We do not make quarrels but?sometimes disputes over the decisions and we mitigate that internally.?

IELTS Speaking Interview,

Sometimes we arrange for small scale tournaments with the other boys of our?college and held the matches at the same ground and they also agree to play in?compliance with the rules made by us. So, I enjoy the evening cricket matches?much than any other thing.

PART – 3 FOLLOW UPS

1 Do you think people need to have a day-to-day plan? | Do you think people can still do their tasks if they don’t plan them?

Yes, because a day-to-day plan is a key to effective time management. And if you have a clear plan for the day, you can make the most of your time and accomplish other tasks of the day. In my opinion, not everyone needs a plan. Few can still do their daily tasks without a plan.

IELTS Speaking Interview,

2 Do you think it is possible to learn how to manage your time?

Yes! I plan my tasks for the day and implement them accordingly which helps me to manage my time. One can learn to manage their time by setting goals and prioritizing them wisely. It’s better to set a time limit for each task and complete them at the earliest.

IELTS Speaking Interview,

3What are some possible advantages of using a time management app for your phone to help you plan your time?

Some of the possible advantages of time management apps are that we can quickly review the profitability of our projects, prioritize and deliver work on time, reduce our stress levels, make bill payments on time, and so on. The time management app can be ideal for understanding all the extra budgets as well. Hence, they are productive and effective.

4Why do you think some people don’t plan their day in advance?

Some people avoid planning their day in advance because they are worried that their plan won’t work or is not good enough. While some people are good at making a plan, they procrastinate when it comes to implementing the same.
