IELTS Speaking Part 1: 'house' topic 
Examiners often begin the speaking test by asking about your home. Here are some typical questions 
and sample answers. 
1) Do you live in a house or an apartment?
I live in a semi-detached house with three bedrooms and a small garden. 
2) Which room do you like most in your house? Why?

My favourite room is the kitchen because it looks out onto the back garden, and it's on the side of the 
house that catches the afternoon sun. 
3) Is there anything about your house that you would like to change?
Well, it would be nice if it were a detached house so that we could have windows on the wall that we 
currently share with our neighbours. 
4) Tell me something else about your house.
The previous owners converted the loft into an extra bedroom; that's the quietest room in the house, 
and the best place to go to do some work.

IELTS Speaking Part 1: 'music' topic 
Practise giving short, simple answers to the following questions. Remember that negative answers 
are fine too. 
1. Do you like music? Why / why not? 
2. What kind of music do you listen to? Why? 
3. Has the music that you listen to changed since you were young? 
4. Do you think older and younger generations prefer different types of music?
