IELTS Speaking Sample Answer # Colors

It is very possible that a topic be asked in either of your section of IELTS. So, for instance, a topic like color can be asked either in part I or part II of the speaking section.

Today, let us have a look at some of the possible questions and answers related to colors that can be asked in IELTS speaking part I.

What was your favorite color when you were a child?

As a child, I remember not being very much fussy about the color, I loved all of them and there was nothing like favoritism for any color. There were times when I loved violet, the other times red, sometimes yellow and on and on.

Do you think colors are important?

Well, I think yes. Colors tend to suggest the mood of a person and bring more of spark in a particular day. Like, on a wedding , people tend to wear bright clothes and it uplifts the entire mood. I think every color has its own significance, and they bring that significance alive.

Is color very important for you when buying clothes?

For me, the only thing that matters while buying clothes is that it should look good on me. So, I really don’t bother much about the color as long as the dress is looking nice on me.

If you were to paint the walls of your room, what color would you choose?

I would prefer white or beige color for the walls, with some drawing or styling done on the room. White or beige make the room look more spacious and I like room to be spacious and the styling brings more of personal touch to the room.

IELTS Speaking Sample Answer # Humour

Laugh, we all do. Rarely is a person who has yet not laughed. So, if you get questions on Humor or laugh, it would  mostly be in the first part of the speaking section. Now, let us have a look at some of the questions related to humor and their possible answers.

What kind of things make you laugh?

Well, mostly sarcastic things tend to make me laugh. When I am with my friends and family, someone is pulling each others leg, things go really tickling. Other than that, the comedians who take sarcastic note on the things happening in real life, I find them funny.

Do you like making other people laugh?

Oh! I love it. I believe, humor is that one thing that make people more comfortable with each other. Even it is really good during those heavy times. So, I really like people smiling and try and make more people smile.

Do you think it is important for people to laugh?

Yes, laughing makes things easier.Just imagine, someone is state of misery, but even they can smile at that time, it makes misery look very small. More importantly, we have got this one life, not laughing because of some stupid tensions, does not makes sense to me.

Is laughing the same as feeling happy?

I think it is not exactly the same, feeling happy is more of like a state of mind. So, people may be happy when they achieve something or when they are with their loved ones, it does not mean they need to laugh. On the other hand, laughter is more like an expression, you tend to laugh when something funny happens.
