IELTS Speaking Part 1 Topic Memory
Sample Answer 1
1. Are you good at memorising things?
No, my memory is bad. I’ve got a memory like a sieve, and I’ve started forgetting things. Last Monday, I left the house without my keys and then I was locked out!
2. Have you ever forgotten something that was important?
I do forget things sometimes, little annoying things instead of important
things. I prefer to set alerts or put reminders for myself on my phone to help me with scheduling, in case I forget or lose track of time.
3. What do you need to remember in your daily life?
There is a lot to remember, a lot to do every day. This includes my working schedules, important meetings, business events, time for reading and learning and more. I can easily remember.
4. How do you remember important thing?
I have a habit of using a checklist and a calendar to see what’s important, prioritizing tasks, and then knocking them off one by one.
Sample Answer 2
1. Are you good at memorising things?
Honestly, it really depends. I’m good at math, and I can confidently say that I can memorize formulas and resolve math problems easily.
However, I struggle so much with history. I can hardly memorize the names of particular wars and the people involved in historical events.
2. Have you ever forgotten something that was important?
Oh, sure, all the time! I’m constantly forgetting people’s birthdays, forgetting about meetings, and all sorts of other slip-ups.
I try to avoid forgetting important things by noting them down in my calendar, but it’s definitely not a foolproof system. I’ve still forgotten a bucketload of important things that I later noticed had been entered into my calendar.
3. What do you need to remember in your daily life?
I have a lot on my plate right now as I’m currently in my third year of university study. For instance, I need to keep track of upcoming assignments and various meeting schedules. To make my life easier, I always set reminders on my phone for everything important so l don’t miss anything.
4. How do you remember important thing?
I we’re talking about daily trivialities, l often rely on a common method, that is, making to-do lists.
But when it comes to memorizing a large amount of information, I would try mind maps. I think they are quite helpful and handy because they show the structure and major points clearly, which makes it easier to remember.
Plus, I’ll have a nightly review of my daytime activities to help me keep track of is everything.
Sample Answer 3
1. Why do some people have good memory while others just don’t?
I am not an expert on this, but I think it’s part of human gene or talent, and part of the reason must be because of enough professional trainings. In other words, I believe memory can be trained after we were given birth.
2. Why do more people rely on cellphones to memorize things?
Probably due to the reason of being busy every day. People are all busy at dealing their work, family, friends and so on, we need to put too many things in our minds, but it’s just hard to keep everything clear. With some APPs on cellphones, we can make notes or record anything in need instantly, that’s a good way to memorize things.
3. Are you good at memorizing things?
Pretty good, I think. I have a good memory since I was just a little girl. And I can still
remember that when I was three years old, I was almost lost my way in the kid’s center after dance class. And when I grew up, I can memorize knowledge very quickly, especially in visual presenting way.
4. Have you ever forgotten something that was important?
Yes, I lost my bookbag when I was a middle school student. I was too sleepy on the bus that went back home on a busy Friday, and when I woke up, I forgot to take my bookbag with me. Besides that, I have not forgotten anything more important.
