19、 my sample answers to the questions that I shared with you last week. Notice that I use the 3 or 4 steps that I recommended, and remember to note down any good words or phrases that you find.1. Do you think most people watch TV for education or for entertainment?I think people watch TV primarily for
20、 entertainment. There are far more entertainment programmes than educational ones, and in my experience most people treat television as a form of relaxation in the evening. If I think about the most popular TV programmes in the UK, such as talent shows like X Factor or soap operas like Eastenders, t
21、he focus is definitely on entertainment rather than education.2. Should TV play a role in educating children? How?Yes, it definitely should play a role in my opinion. Good childrens TV programmes should tell stories that contain some kind of lesson about how to behave or what is morally right and wr
22、ong. Many of the traditional fairy tales, such as Cinderella, have been made into TV programmes, and there is always a postive message in those stories.3. How do you think TV viewing habits change as people get older?TV viewing habits obviously change a lot as we get older. While toddlers might watc
23、h programmes about talking animals, teenagers prefer action and adventure or sports, and as adults we start taking an interest in news and politics. My own preferences, for example, have changed over the years - I would never have watched news programmes when I was younger. I think it would be very
24、strange if our viewing habits didnt mature! HYPERLINK /ielts-help-and-english-pr/2015/02/ielts-speaking-part-1-collecting-answers.html IELTS Speaking Part 1: collecting answersHere are my sample answers to the questions from last week.1) Have you ever collected anything as a hobby? (What?)Yes. When
25、I was younger I used to collect keyrings. I remember that my favourite was a Lego man keyring that someone bought me as a present.2) What kinds of thing do people often like collecting?Some people collect cheap items like stamps, keyrings or toys. Others collect expensive antiques, watches, jeweller
26、y or even cars.3) Why do you think people collect certain objects?Maybe they like the constant search for a new item, or they want to remember past experiences. Others might like the feeling of organising and presenting what they own.4) Is there anything that you would like to collect in the future?
27、Yes. If I could afford it, Id love to have a collection of guitars in different colours, shapes and sizes!Describe an aim or goal that you hope to achieve in the future.You should say- what the aim is- when you hope to achieve it- what you need to do to reach your goal- and why this goal is importan
28、t to you.Heres my answer. Can you find any less common vocabulary in it?Im going to describe a future aim of mine, which is to write a book. Id like to write a novel, so the story or plot would be fictional, but it would probably be influenced by some of my own experiences, ideas and views.Unfortuna
29、tely I have no idea where to start or what my novel would be about, so I cant imagine achieving this aim until later in my life. Maybe it will be something that I do as a hobby when I retire, or I might suddenly be inspired to start writing much sooner. Its just a vague objective at the moment.I thi
30、nk it must be extremely difficult to find the motivation to write a novel, so more than anything I would need time, commitment and the passion to keep working until I finished. I would probably need to set a goal of writing for a certain amount of time each day, and of course Id need a good idea for
31、 a story in the first place.This goal interests me because Ive always wondered how people manage to create a work of fiction from nothing; Ive always wondered whether I could do the same, and whether Id be capable of bringing a story to life. Ive always enjoyed reading, and Id like to follow in the
32、footsteps of my favourite authors.Here are my sample answers for last weeks questions about maps. Remember that my answers are short and simple because this is what the examiner requires in part 1 of the test.1. Do you ever use maps?Yes. Whenever I go somewhere new, I plan my journey with the help o
33、f a map.2. When do people usually need to use a map?I imagine that some people use a map every day if they travel to different places for work. Others might only use a map when theyre on holiday.3. Do you prefer electronic or paper maps?I still prefer paper maps for a long journey; I like being able
34、 to open the map out on a table and see the full journey ahead.4. Do you ever ask people for directions instead of using a map?Only if Im really lost. Whenever I ask for directions, I find it difficult to remember what the person said. So I prefer to find my own way. HYPERLINK /ielts-help-and-englis
35、h-pr/2014/12/ielts-speaking-part-3-for-example.html IELTS Speaking Part 3: for example.In part 3 of the speaking test, you should try to give longer, more detailed answers. A great way to do this is by giving an example.However, Ive noticed that students often forget to give an example, even when Iv
36、e just told them to answer using the three steps: 1) direct answer 2) explain 3) give an example. HYPERLINK /ielts-help-and-english-pr/2014/12/ielts-speaking-part-1-parks-answers.html IELTS Speaking Part 1: parks answersHere are my sample answers for last weeks questions. Remember that part 1 answer
37、s are supposed to be short and direct. You dont need to show off in this part of the test!1. Do you like parks? Why / why not?Yes, I like parks because theyre great places to relax or go for a walk. I think every city needs some green space where people can escape from the crowds.2. How often do you
38、 visit parks?Theres a park very close to where I live, so I probably go there once or twice a week if the weathers nice.3. Why are parks an important part of many towns and cities?Parks are like an oasis where people get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. They are where people go to have
39、lunch, to take some exercise, or to forget about work for a while.4. What do you think could be done to make parks better?The parks in big cities are already really good in my opinion. If I think about the famous parks in London, Paris or New York, I cant imagine what I would do to improve them.Desc
40、ribe an indoor game that you enjoyed as a child. You should say- what the game was- where you played it- who played this game with you- and why you liked itAs a child I enjoyed playing chess. I think chess is probably the best known board game in the world. Its a game for two players, and the aim is
41、 to defeat the other player by taking his or her pieces and eventually trapping his King. This final move is called checkmate.I remember that it was a classmate of mine at primary school who first taught me to play chess. He had a small, portable chess set, and once I knew how each piece moved, we s
42、tarted playing at break and lunch times; we played in our classroom or outside on the school playground. Later my parents bought me my own chess set as a birthday present so that I could play at home.I taught my younger brother to play, and at some point I joined the school chess club. There I had t
43、he chance to hone my skills against some of the older pupils, and in my final year of primary school I made it onto the school team. There were five of us on the team, and we competed against children from other primary schools in the same town.I liked playing chess because I enjoyed the challenge o
44、f thinking ahead and trying to outwit my opponent. I was probably seven or eight years old when I started playing, and it seemed like a very mysterious and intellectual game at that time. Also, although I loved winning, chess taught me to learn from my losses and to congratulate the person who had b

48、king Part 1: sample answersRemember to keep your part 1 answers short and direct; the examiner will interrupt you if you dont. Here are my sample answers to the house or apartment questions from two weeks ago:1. Do you live in a house or an apartment?I live in a semi-detached house with three bedroo
49、ms in a suburb of Manchester. Ive lived there for just over a year.2. Which is your favourite room in your home? Why?I dont really have a favourite room. But if I had to choose, Id say the living room because thats where I go to sit and relax.3. Would you change anything about your home? Why / why n
50、ot?Yes, Ive been meaning to redecorate it since I moved in last year. It needs a new kitchen, so thats what Id change first.4. Would you like to move to a different home in the future?Yes, Id definitely move again at some point if I could afford to. Id like to live in the countryside, or maybe in a

HYPERLINK /ielts-help-and-english-pr/2014/09/ielts-speaking-part-3-advice-answers.html IELTS Speaking Part 3: advice answersHere are my sample answers for the advice questions from HYPERLINK /ielts-help-and-english-pr/2014/07/ielts-speaking-part-3-advice-topic.html t _self
52、 thislesson:1. Is it better to get advice from a friend or from a family member?I think it depends on the kind of advice that you need. Parents and grandparents probably have more life experience than a friend, and so you might get a wiser or more sensible answer from them. On the other hand, friend
53、s are less likely to become too worried if you go to them with a problem. For example, I probably wouldnt want to burden my parents with a financial problem.2. What would you say are the characteristics of a good adviser?Well, firstly, a good adviser should be a good listener, someone who takes the
54、time to understand the situation before offering advice. Secondly, an adviser should try to be objective, and avoid judging the person who is seeking help. Finally, I think the best advisers have the ability to ask the right questions and encourage others to find their own answers.3. Should people m
55、ake their own work and career decisions, or is it a good idea to ask for advice about this?Id say that its a mixture of both things. Most of us talk to family, friends, teachers or colleagues before we make career choices. However, I believe that the final decision should rest with the individual; w
56、e all need to take ultimate responsibility for the big life choices that we make. HYPERLINK /ielts-help-and-english-pr/2014/09/ielts-speaking-part-2-school-topic.html IELTS Speaking Part 2: school topicDescribe a school that you went to when you were a child. You should say- where the school was- wh
57、en you went there- what the school and the teachers were like- and explain whether you enjoyed your time there.Heres my sample (band 9) answer:Im going to talk about my primary school. The school was called . and it was in the town of . . The location of the school was great because it was within wa
58、lking distance of our family home at the time. The route to school was all downhill, which made it an easy walk in the morning, but a tiring journey on the way home in the afternoon!I was a pupil at . school between the ages of 5 and 11 - the full 6 years of primary education. From age 11 onwards, I
59、 went to a nearby secondary school.My primary school seemed like a big place at the time, but it was actually quite a small school, with only six classes. I remember there being a large room called the assembly hall, where the whole school gathered every morning to hear messages from the headmaster.
60、 I also remember spending a lot of time on the playground and on the sports field. I liked all of my teachers; they were caring but strict at the same time, and I think they fostered a positive and fun atmosphere in the school.I have really fond memories of my primary school years, mainly because of
