Band 9 Sample Answers for IELTS Speaking Part 1 Topic & Questions: Appearance

IELTS Speaking Part 1 Topic & Questions: Appearance

1. Do you often judge others based on their look?

No as I have been told not to judge a book by its cover (said to show that you cannot judge someone or something by looking only at that person or thing’s appearance), I believe personality and behaviours are what I should take into account (consider) if I want to judge someone, not their appearance.

2. How do you know if someone likes or dislikes you?

I don’t think there is any possible ways of knowing that. People nowadays are so good at camouflaging (hide the truth) their feelings. But I guess sometimes I can just sense it, naturally, like they don’t talk to me or sit next to me, which means they dislike me, obviously.

3. What would you do if someone doesn’t like you?

I don’t think I have to do anything, it’s their problem, not mine. You know that we cannot please everyone and I am not a pleaser (a person who tries hard to make people like them or to make people happy). So if they dislike me, I will just go with the flow (relax and let things happen or do what others want, rather than trying to control it).
