IELTS Speaking Test
Do you often (like to) listen to music? Or do you like listening to music?
So far I haven’t met anyone who dislikes music. However, when the workload is too heavy that requires me to stay highly focused, music is a huge distraction. Unlike many people who listen to instrumental music because it helps them focus, music makes me feel sleepy.
When do you listen to music?
Well, the whole world likes it, so I’m no exception. I usually listen to cheerful music when I need motivation and prefer sad ones, when I’m in a bad mood.
How much time do you spend listening to music every day?
As I’ve mentioned I prefer working in silence. To put it simply, I don’t listen to music during my working hours. After a long day at school, I probably want to chill out for like half an hour and music helps me to stay energetic.
What kinds of music do you like to listen to? Or What’s your favourite kind of music?
I prefer a range of music from Western to Eastern, and from the 90s to modern EDM. But if Korean pop is considered as a kind of music, then yeah, that’s my favourite. More than half of my playlists are Korean songs and I always keep myself updated with news related to Korean showbiz.
IELTS Speaking Test
Have you ever been to a concert before? Or Have you ever been to a musical performance?
I attend concerts, once in a blue moon, since the ticket price for foreign artists’ concerts is out of my reach. So I can only stay home and watch online. It was in 2014 that I finally did go to a concert on my own and it was an international music concert. It was absolutely mind-blowing and an unforgettable experience.
Do you like to listen to live music?
Unless it’s live at a coffee shop, where literally there is only music and me, then yeah I would love to. But I would change my mind if it’s a concert. The crowd is too crazy. It’s completely a mess most of the time and I end up with a severe headache.

PART – 2 CUE CARD
Describe a dream you remember well
You should say:
– What it was about
– How you feel about that
– What it could indicate
– And explain why you remember it so well
SAMPLE ANSWER
IELTS Speaking Test
I vividly remember a dream where I was exploring an ancient forest filled with towering trees and bioluminescent plants. As I walked deeper, I encountered a shimmering waterfall that glowed under the moonlight. Suddenly, I found myself in a clearing with strange creatures that seemed both familiar and otherworldly. They communicated with me through colors and sounds, and I felt an overwhelming sense of peace.
I felt a mix of wonder and serenity during the dream, which lingered even after I woke up. The beauty of the forest and the creatures filled me with a sense of awe and connection to nature. It was a stark contrast to the stress I often experience in my daily life.
IELTS Speaking Test
I believe this dream could indicate a need for escape and a desire for a deeper connection with nature. It might reflect my subconscious longing for tranquility and a break from routine. The creatures could symbolize aspects of myself that I’m not fully aware of or haven’t embraced yet.
I remember it so clearly because it felt incredibly vivid, almost like a lucid experience. The emotions I felt were profound, and the imagery was strikingly beautiful. Additionally, the dream stood out because it offered such a stark contrast to my usual dreams, making it a memorable and significant experience.

Do you think dreams have meanings? Why or why not?
Yes, I believe dreams can hold meanings and reflect our subconscious thoughts and feelings. They often process our emotions and experiences, offering insights we might not consciously recognize. This can help us better understand ourselves.
Have you had other dreams that felt significant?
Absolutely! I’ve had dreams where I’ve confronted fears or revisited past experiences. Each time, they felt like opportunities for reflection and growth, leaving me with a sense of clarity.
IELTS Speaking Test
Do you keep a dream journal?
I don’t keep a formal dream journal, but I try to jot down significant dreams when I remember them. It helps me process my thoughts and sometimes provides valuable insights into my waking life.
How do you usually feel after waking up from a dream?
It varies. Some dreams leave me feeling inspired or reflective, while others might make me anxious. I find that the emotions linger, influencing my mood for the day, especially if the dream was particularly vivid or intense.
