Ielts speaking part 1 topics (questions and answers)

Q. When you go out for an evening, what do you like to do? 
Answer: I mostly like to walk in a park or spend some time with my friends in 
the evening. I often take my bicycle and ride it for an hour or so once or twice a 
week. Sometimes, I go to a movie with my friends and have fun. 
Q. How popular is this with other people in your country? 
Answer: Walking in a park, hanging out with friends and riding a bicycle as part 
of the outdoor activity are common among people in my country. Many young 
and elders do these often in the afternoon. Families often visit the theatre in the 
evening 
and 
spend 
some 
quality 
time 
together. 
Q. Is there any kind of entertainment you do not like? [Why/Why not?] 
Answer: I guess I hate to see people wasting hours after hours in front of a 
television set. I do believe that television is a great media to get news and watch 
entertaining programmes, but some people are addicted to watching TV and 
they spend almost 6-8 hours a day watching television programmes. I just 
dislike this as I believe this time could be better utilised.

interest.
