Describing something naughty you did
This has been a recent question in part 2 of IELTS speaking:
Describe something naughty you did when you were a child. Say
- what you did
- when you did it
- why you did it
- and explain how your parents felt about it.
This is a difficult
topic for most people, so it's a good idea to prepare for it
before your test. If you
can remember a real situation, use that. If you can't
remember being naughty, invent an easy story like my example below.
Example ideas:
1.
I cheated in a test at primary school by looking
at the answers in my
book under the table.
2.
I was about ... years old, it was a ... lesson.
Give some more background
about the lesson,
the test, the teacher etc.
3.
I hadn't studied for the test, I didn't want to
fail and have to retake the
test at lunchtime. Give reasons why you didn't have time to study.
4.
The teacher caught me and told my parents. Explain their feelings:
disappointed, angry, embarrassed. Explain the punishment e.g. they
'grounded' me for a week (informal expression, meaning 'they didn't
allow me to go out or see friends').
