SAMPLE Q & A in IELTS SPEAKING

Q: What do you do to keep fit?

A1: Nothing special, I’m afraid… I mean… when I was young, I used to do quite a lot of running and things ….and I did a bit of sport when I was a school-boy… But to be honest,… I’m quite busy now and just hardly find any spare time for physical activities…

A2: Not much, I’m afraid….. I must admit that I don’t fancy doing any kind of exercise… Of course,…. I had to do some when I was at school,…. and I used to be quite good at football, actually. But these days, I would rather spend my time reading, going out with friends or studying and so on.

A: Well, to tell the truth…. I’m not much of a bookworm….. I mean, sometimes I’m just crazy about reading something …..and could spend almost a day reading a book or a novel…. and so on….. However, in fact, there were also times when I just didn’t do any reading at all for even a couple of months.
