Thanks to M.K., who recently took the IELTS test in the USA, today we’re sharing the Speaking questions she remembered:
Speaking test
Part 1 (Interview)
– Where do you live?
– What kind of place is it?
– Do you like living there?
– What age group do most people in your area belong to?
– How long have you lived there?
– What kind of music do you like listening to?
– Has your taste in music changed over the years?
– Is your taste in music similar to or different from that of your friends or family?
Part 2 (Cue Card)
Describe a piece of good news you heard from someone close to you. You should say:
– what the news was
– who told you about it
– how you felt when you heard it
and explain why this news was important to you.
Part 3 (Discussion)
– Do you think the news shared on social media is mostly positive or negative?
– How do news stories on social media affect people’s emotions and behaviour?
– Why do you think negative news spreads faster than positive news?
– Should people rely on social media as their main source of news?
– How can we identify whether news online is true or false?
– Do you think traditional news sources are more reliable than online ones?
