Ielts speaking Test Part 1 Examiner: Good morning, my name is Can you tell me your full name please?

What facilities does your hometown have?
As far as I know Ningbo has many outstanding facilities but I would say that the hospital would be the most useful. Ningbo is quite a developed city so obviously the medical equipment in hospitals is technologically advanced. I guess another useful facility would have to be the libraries which provide people with books of all genres to people of all ages.
What sorts of buildings are there in your hometown?
Like most cities, mine is filled with 2 types of buildings, the first one is of course apartment buildings where people live; most apartment buildings in my city are normally over 6 floors. The other type would be commercial buildings such as offices buildings or retail stores since people need to work and purchase goods.
What's the most attractive part of your hometown?
Well, I guess the theme parks would be quite attractive to most tourists. The theme parks in my city have a variety of rides for people of all ages from roller coasters to merry-go-rounds. Furthermore, I guess the food would also be quite appealing to many people, Ningbo has a delicacy called sweet dumpling which is quite famous also the seafood is quite fresh because it is located near the sea.
What forms of transport do visitors use to come to your hometown?
Of course people would use a mixed variety of transportation when visiting my hometown. However, I think the most commonly-used would potentially be buses. The explanation for this could be they are cheap and reliable. As well as buses, I guess the second most popular transport would be to drive a car which is really convenient if you plan to drive to tourist attractions rather than join a tour group.
How could your hometown attract more visitors?
In my opinion, if the government invested more money on keeping the streets clean, it would be a fantastic way to attract more people – people want to see a clean and beautiful city, but mine is a little dirty in some places. Another possible approach may be to do some advertising of the city on the television or the internet, making the city better known to people.
