SOME QUESTION FOR IELTS PART 1:

1. Do you like reading?

I don’t just like reading, I adore it. I’ve been an avid reader since I was old enough to hold a book in my hands.

2. What kinds of books do you usually read?

I used to be a big fan of science fiction books, especially ones that involved space or futuristic technology. These days I’m more into non-fiction books about current affairs or history.

3. Do you usually read for leisure or for work purposes?

Well, I have to do a certain amount of reading as part of my job, but I probably read more for enjoyment. I pick up a newspaper most days, and I usually have a book on the go.

4. Where do you usually read?

The best place to read is at home in a comfortable chair, with a cup of tea or some other snack. It’s best to read when you can feel peaceful and at home. Cafes are also nice places to read because they have a convivial atmosphere.

5. Do you think children like reading nowadays?

I think that children do like reading and always have, but nowadays there are many other attractions competing for children’s attention, like TV and video games. The success of book series like Harry Potter proves that reading is alive and well amongst young people.
