Sample Answers for IELTS Speaking Part 1 Topic: Evenings

What do you often do in the evenings?

I mostly like to listen to music or read a novel by my favourite author in the evening. It just helps me soothe (gently calm a person or their feelings) my mind and take me away from the stress.

Do you do the same thing every evening?

I don’t always follow the same schedule, but I like listening to my favourite tune unless I have some pending work. However, if I have free time in the evening, I enjoy spending it with my friends over evening tea and snacks.

Do you prefer to spend your evenings with friends or family?

I enjoy spending time with my friends and family. So, if I am not working in the evenings, I usually spend time with my family. For that matter, I also like to spend some time with my friends when they are available.

Do you ever work or study in the evenings?

Mostly I try to take a break in the evenings as it allows me to clear my mind, recharge my energy and concentrate on my job, allowing me to be more productive. If I have a priority task at hand, I strive to complete it first before taking a break.

What is a popular activity for young people in the evenings in your country?

Well, people in my country, both young and older, enjoy going for walks in the park and performing some outdoor activities. During the weekends, families always go to the theatre.

Do you do the same thing in the evenings as you did when you were a child?

Absolutely no. There is a huge difference. Since I am working now and mostly occupied (=be busy) with work, I don’t get enough time to do fun activities. When I was young, I always used to engage in (get involved in ) activities like playing a game with my friends and was less stressed than I am now.
