There are many new and different kinds of question in the speaking part of IELTS for the spring of the year 2010. Some of them are not related to one’s daily living or some are far away from a candidate’s daily life. For example , the topic of “ art “ or the questions about it usually gives the test takers a hard time to answer because most of them does not have any knowledge about it. Below is an example of question about the topic art in Part I and how it should be answered.
What kind of art do you like?
I don’t have any particular favorite when it comes to art because I am appreciative of each work of art that I see. I like looking at abstract and colorful paintings as much as I like looking at portrait paintings. I also enjoy looking at clay sculptures the same way that I enjoy looking at ice sculptures. Each work of art has its own reason, background and history.
Furthermore, questions like Which kind of art do you like and why? , What do you think about arts ? Are they important?, Do you usually go to music hall or museum?, Do you like paintings or sculptures? , Do you like music ? , What kind of art did you do when you were young? –are also asked in part I .
In Part 2 of the IELTS Speaking Module, you need to give a short talk, of about 1-2 minutes, on the topic about “art”. The questions do not require any specific knowledge, but are based on personal experience. You are handed a card with the topic and you have one minute to prepare your talk. You can make notes and use these notes during your monologue. The examiner will not ask you any questions during this part of the test, so you must know how to answer all parts of the question you are given and speak fluently for a few minutes by yourself. Sample IELTS Speaking Module topics (for Part 2) are given below. It is quite likely that you will be given one of these topics or something very similar, so make sure you can speak confidently and clearly on each one.
