IELTS SPEAKING: HOBBIES - PART 3 SAMPLE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

In this article you will review speaking part 3 tips, learn some key vocabulary and read some sample answers for IELTS speaking part 3 questions related to 'Hobbies'.

1. What hobbies are common in your culture?

(Answer)

To be honest, one of the most popular things to do in Ireland is to drink beer, especially at the weekend.

(More detail)

People like to catch up with their friends and neighbors over a cool beer. Most villages have a bar which is like a meeting point for the local residents.

Other than that, sports are very common. In particular, people enjoy watching and playing football.

2. Has modern life limited the time we spend on hobbies?

(Answer)

Mmm ,I’ve never thought about before. I suppose it has.

(Reason)

People nowadays seem to work longer and longer hours which means they have less time to do leisure activities. It also appears that people commute longer distances which means they get home late when they are too tired to do anything except sleep!

(Opinion)

It’s a shame really. I think it’s so important to do something to blow off steam!

3. Can hobbies have any negative effects?

(Answer)

Definitely! Some can have detrimental effects.

(Example)

For instance, as I mentioned, people in Ireland often drink beer at the weekend.

(Negative effects)

Although, it’s an effective way to unwind after a long and tiring work week, it’s certainly not healthy. I mean, when people drink too much alcohol, they gain weight, also known as a ‘beer belly’!

Additionally, sometimes irresponsible drinkers become drunk and cause fights.
