Here is a transcript of what is heard in this YouTube video:
Talk about a gift you would like to give to a friend. You should say
– what the gift is
– how valuable it is
– and say why you chose this gift
I am very fortunate to have my friend, Eva. She has always supported me in all of my endeavours and has believed in me when I have not believed in myself. It is thanks to Eva that I started my own side business creating hand-painted straw hats. So I am a lawyer, an artist and a business person.

Here is a transcript of what is heard in this YouTube video:
Do you think dreams have meaning?
I don’t believe they have meaning other than revealing the thoughts of our subconscious. So, I don’t believe they are prophetic or anything. At least, they aren’t for me.
Do you enjoy hearing about other people’s dreams?
I like hearing about the ones that baffle the dreamer. I recently helped a friend analyse a dream that had confused him, and he found my interpretation rather enlightening. Dreams with no significance are rather boring though and most dreams I experience are of this variety.

24 Minutes to better IELTS Speaking! (Examiner: "What can a child do to ...
This week's full lesson is well over an hour! Access it here: https://www.ieltsspeakingblog.com/view/courses/videos/1273360-28-march-2022-part-3-pride/3897021-full-lesson
Below is a transcript of what is heard in this YouTube video. As always, this band 9 model was scripted by an active examiner:
We’ve been talking about families, and I would like to ask you a few more questions about this topic. What can a child do to make their parents proud?
I think it depends on the values the family has tried to instil in the child. If the parents have tried to teach the child to be polite, and the child succeeds, the parents will be proud. Likewise, if the parents have emphasised sports or academics and the child excels in one of these, this will please the parents.
Is it a good thing to reward children?
Apparently, psychologists say that rewards are far more effective in reinforcing behavior than punishment…so in that sense, I suppose rewards are a good thing. I would imagine though that the reward has to be appropriate for the accomplishment. You wouldn’t give a child a Porsche for saying please and thank you.

Here is a transcript of what is heard in the video:
Talk about something your family member has done that made you proud. You should say
– who it was
– what he/she did
– when it happened
– and explain why it made you proud
My sister is 11 years old, and she has been practising tae kwon do since she was four. She is an excellent athlete and despite her age is extremely focused and disciplined.
Last month, she was selected to take part in the national tae kwon do tournament, which in and of itself is a very prestigious distinction. She practised every day in preparation for the tournament and made great sacrifices for it. She was even supposed to go to Eurodisney the weekend of the tournament but chose to compete over going on the trip.

Here is a transcript of what is heard in this YouTube video:
Where is your hometown?
I am from a small city in the eastern part of this country.
Let’s talk about mobile phones. What app have you installed on your phone recently?
I recently downloaded a taxi service application to assist with my commute.
Have you benefited from using this app? How?
This application has saved me both time and money. Because the taxi is guaranteed to arrive quickly, I know I won’t waste money trying to hail a cab. Also, since the price is determined beforehand, I don’t have to worry about other variables like traffic increasing my fare.

Here is a transcript of what is heard in this YouTube video:
Describe a person you met only once and want to know more about. You should say:
– who he/she is
– when you met him/her
– why you want to know more about him/her
– and explain how you feel about him/her.
Last month I took a trip for a work conference, and I was introduced to a very interesting man by a colleague. He is a very experienced professional in my field who is extremely knowledgeable not only about his subject area but about related topics as well.
His name is Ernesto, and I guess I met him during one of the conference breaks. My colleague introduced me to him, and the three of us talked over coffee. The discussion covered a variety of topics, both related and unrelated to work. Ernesto possessed the rare combination of being an engaging speaker and a patient listener.
