Ideas and Examples for IELTS Speaking(1) (2)

5. Do any animals have a special significance in your culture?
Yes, definitely. Many animals have a special significance in Chinese culture. For example, the
dragon is a symbol of kingship, and our emperors always had a dragon on their walls, or
embroidered on their clothes. In addition, dogs are supposed to be loyal; cows are hard-working
(horses are hard-working in english-speaking countries); monkeys are smart. But my foreign teacher
told me that in English, monkeys were stupid. It's confusing! In China, tigers symbolize power and
courage; the phoenix is synonymous with (=is the same as) good fortune; butterflies represent love.
We have a legend where 2 young people could not get married because their families disapproved
of their wedding. They both died, and became happy butterflies and flew away together. It is the
Chinese version of Romeo and Juliet!
6. Should bloody sports like bullfighting and fox hunting be banned?
Well, I don't know much about such activities, but I definitely find it hard to understand how
people find fun in them. I guess it must be related to the country's culture, that is to say Spanish
culture for bullfighting, and British traditions for fox hunting. I think we should avoid killing
animals whenever it's possible, but there must be some traditional aspects of the sports that I don't
know or wouldn't even understand, I suppose. So the people who created these traditions should be
the ones to decide to put an end to them if they are really cruel.
7. What do you think about people who buy fur coats?
It's now your turn to answer!

A Domesticated Animal
Tell me about a domesticated animal.
You should say:
what the animal is
whether it is common in your country
what it looks like
and explain whether you like or dislike this animal.
• My cousin's dog: When? How long?
• Describe the dog's looks.
• Activities + well
-trained
• Qualities + importance for a kid to be brought up with a dog

Future: big house with space for dog and kid
I have never had any dogs or cats because when I was a child, we needed a license to own a
pet, and I think that dogs also cost a lot of money: you must feed them, wash them, and take them
to the vet (= veterinarian). It's not as easy as it sounds. However, my young cousin Minnie has had
a dog for a couple of years and she truly loves her pet.
Her dog is a Golden Retriever. It is a pretty big dog with a lot of energy. It has a long muzzle
with a long tongue. Its coat is very dense (= a lot of hair), and it has a creamy co1or. It is so soft that
everyone likes to pet it. Its tail is quite long too, and he keeps on wagging it all the time. He's a very
lively dog. I like to tease the dog by scratching his ears. It's got these long soft ears and I sometimes
turn them inside out. It makes him shake his head very strongly. It's amusing.
I know that Minnie or her parents take the dog for a walk at least twice a day. They live next
to a park, so it's pretty convenient for them. When my uncle goes jogging, he takes the dog along.
You know, he has a leash, and it is good exercise for both of them. Actually, the dog is well-trained,
and he can obey simple orders. He understands when we ask him to sit, or lie down, and even to be
quiet. He's very obedient. Actually, I have never heard him bark, now that I think about it.
My aunt told us she had done a lot of research to find out which breed (= kind) of dog would
be the best to have with a young child in the family. She said that Golden Retrievers are kind and
friendly and very sociable. We all agree that the dog is smart and also eager to please. I think it's
good for my young cousin to be brought up with a dog, because she must take care of him. It gives
her a sense of responsibility. In addition, you know in China, with the one-child policy, many kids
fee110ne1y. Now at least Minnie has a loyal companion at home.
Last year, we took a day-trip to the countryside, and we found a gorgeous place to
have a picnic next to a river. Minnie and her dog were swimming all afternoon long. In the future, I
would love to have a big house with a backyard. I think it would be great to see my child play with
our dog there.
