(2023) IELTS Speaking Part 1 Topic Health

There are several ways. I rarely eat junk food and drink milk tea.

What’s more, I know the dangers of sleep deprivation, so I normally hit the hay/sack before 11pm.

Last but not least, I go to the gym to work out on a regular basis. Working out definitely helps me blow off the steam after work/school.

Call me a gym freak!

Going to the gym is my favorite. Each time after a workout, I always feel like the hottest guy/girl in the world!, It definitely boosts my confidence!

On top of that, I’m also into playing badminton. It is physically challenging and involves a lot of skills and techniques. That’s why I find them super interesting.

Answer 1:
Actually, no. Our school mainly focused on academic studies, so I don’t remember having any health-related classes from primary school to high school. What a shame!

Answer 2:
Not really. The Chinese education system places a strong emphasis on subjects like math and science, so health classes are not typically offered in most schools.

Instead, I learned about health-related information from news sources and through Google searches. I believe it would be really beneficial if schools offered health classes, as they could help prevent issues like obesity and mental health-related diseases, which are increasingly common in China.

Anything that gets the blood pumping is good for you.

People lead such sedentary lifestyles glued to screens; so anything that encourages people to get up and go outside is healthy.

Answer 1:
Actually, in today’s society, think it s a bit hard for people to do exercise as we are normally snowed under with work and study. I mean, we have much less time for doing sports than before.

And when we finally catch a break and take a breather, we normally spend the time scrolling, staring at the screen, which is so wrong.

We really need more physical activities to wind down and fully relax.

Answer 2:
It depends on the type of exercise. The majority of people in China live in residential compounds, which often have parks, playgrounds, and walking trails where people can easily engage in casual exercise.

However, there aren’t many public fields available for people to play basketball or soccer, so those who want to play these sports may need to pay expensive fees to use a sports center.
