Ielts jeremy Chiron Ideas and Examples for ielts speaking

7. Do you think that parents and children can be good friends?
Yes, it’s definitely possible, but also difficult. In my country, many parents are strict
with their child. They expect a lot from their kid, and they also want to control what the child
does all the time
．
So it’s impossible for such parents to become friends with their son or
daughter. But if they communicate, and trust each other, and if the parents give some space
and freedom to the child, then they can definitely build a friendly relationship
．
8. Do you think that people behave differently when in a group
？
Well, yes, to some extent. Some individuals might be shy when they meet new people.
Some might try to be nicer than they really are, because they really want to make a good
impression. But I think that some people who are confident and relaxed will definitely act
the same whether they are at home with their family or out with new acquaintances.
9. Do you agree that you can’t understand today’s world without knowing
about the past?
Yes, totally
！
Whatever happened in the past definitely has an influence on today’s
situation. This is why it is so interesting to study history. History can explain today’s
economical situation; it gives an explanation for the geographical borders of countries or
the traditions we follow during the national festivals
．
If we look at American history, we can
clearly understand why people think it’s such a big deal to have a Black President for the first
time, because 150 years ago, they still considered African-Americans as slaves in most states
．
The past definitely explains today’s world and our attitudes towards it.
10. Do you think that men and women want the same things in a relationship?
No way
！
Well, at least in China, men want a beautiful girl who can get along with their
parents and do the housework, whereas women wish for a considerate and smart husband
who can make them happy. Our expectations are totally different
