IELTS Speaking Part 1 Sample Band 9 – Topic: Weather

1. What do you like to do when the weather is great?

I’d love to participate in some outdoor activities like meeting up with some friends or do some sports, especially swimming. Or I’ll grab the chance for a photography tour. Everything becomes so clear and stunning on sunny days, no matter it’s early in the morning or late in the afternoon, as long as the sun shines, I’m sure I’ll find inspiration almost everywhere.

Vocabulary

To grab the chance (v) to have an opportunity to do Sth

2. Would you like to stay at home or go outside when the weather is great?

It’s recommended that people should spend more time outside for both physical and mental benefits and there’s no reason not to, especially when the weather is great. I usually get out of the house for a walk or short break just to enjoy the fresh air. It’s also a really helpful tactic to boost creativity and regain focus after long working hours.
