IELTS Speaking Part 1 sample topic Weather

1. What’s the weather like in your country?

It depends on which part of the country you are referring to( ám chỉ,
nói đến). I’m currently living in the North, I would say the weather is a
bit comfortable because it has all four seasons but sometimes the
weather can also get pretty extreme, especially in the summer when
the temperature can reach up to 40 degree celcius due to terrifying
drastic heatwaves sweeping across the city.

2. Which season do you like best?

I’m a big fan of summer I think summer is the best season because all
the sport activities or physical activities are at their ultimate level in
the summer because you sweat and by sweating your body
detoxifies( giải độc) so it’s really good for you, it’s like refreshing
although every now and then( thỉnh thoảng) I might get some serious
skin complaints like rash or allergies.

3. Do you do different things in different weather?

Yeah I surely do. I mean I do a lot of exercises during the summer

time. But when it comes to winter, when the weather is bleak, the sky
looks so grey and dull and because of the thick cloud cover, I find
myself so draggy and completely not productive at all

4. Would you prefer to live in a place that has the same weather all
year, or a place that has four seasons?

I must say that I am lucky to have four seasons to enjoy although the
sharp distinction among season is slowly disappearing in the North.
It’s kind of boring to me if we have only just one season all year, like
the Southern part of Vietnam, the weather is hot all year round and
only have two seasons which are rainy season and dry season.
5. Do you think the weather is more important to people who play
sports?

Absolutely yes, especially to people who play outdoor sports are most
affected. For instance, thas a significant impact on the performance of
athletes. High temperature can cause various heat illnesses such as
heat cramps and heatstroke, while very low temperatures may lead to
hypothermia.

6.How is the weather today?

Well, I think today is a lovely day, even though it rained a little bit this
morning. When I got out of the house, the weather seemed to brighten
up and I hope it will stay like that for the rest of the day.

7.What’s your favourite kind of weather?

I'm actually not fond of any particular kind of weather, you know. I
think every season has its own unique beauty and it's up to us to enjoy
it. For example, not many people like the freezing weather in the
winter, but I see it as a perfect occasion for me to bundle up and show
off my clothes.

8. What is the climate like in your country?

Vietnam is a tropical country, you know, so the climate here is quite

hot and humid. What upsets me the most is that the weather is getting
more unpredictable. It can cats and dogs in the morning and suddenly
clear out in the afternoon.

9. Does the weather affect people’s lives in your country?

I believe that the weather always affects us in every aspect. If it is a

gloomy day, I'm pretty sure everyone will easily get bored or tired of
whatever they are doing. In contrast, the sunny days make us feel
alive and upbeat.

10.Do people change in the summer?

It can get sweltering in the summery months, so I think it will exert a

certain impact on people's temperament. Everyone becomes less
patient than usual, and they often get frustrated and easily get upset
over some trivial matters.
