(2024) IELTS Speaking Part 1 Topic Staying Up

Sample 1: Yeah, sort of. I’m a typical night bird. And you know, just force of habit. It happens if the deadline’s coming up on weekdays. And the thing is, when it’s been the daily routine, it’s gonna be really hard for me to sleep early on my days off.

Sample 2: No,I don’t. I’m not a night person. I usually go to bed early and get up early to keep a healthy lifestyle. For me, working or studying after mid-night can’t make me highly efficiently.

Sample 3: Usually, I would go to bed before twelve o’clock, and I fall asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow, but on Friday night, I would stay up into the early hours to binge-watch some TV series.

Sample 1: Well I’m not so sure about that coz it’s really a long time ago. I guess, I kept early hours when I was a little. After all, back then I wasn’t overwhelmed by the work or had to burn the midnight oil on weekdays.

Sample 2: Hardly ever, because when I was a kid, I have an awful lot of me-time during the day, so I don’t have to sacrifice my sleep time to do something more important. I was totally an early bird.

Sample 1: Sometimes I have a lot of work to catch up on, like the prep work for presentation or going over the notes for the coming exam. By the way, on New Year’s Eve, I usually watch the Spring Festival Gala with my family members. It’s a kind of tradition in China, you know, to say farewell to the old and welcome the new.

If i continue the pattern, I mean, staying up late for more than 3 days, I probably feel sleepy the next day and just wanna have some caffeine to cheer me up. The interesting thing is, if I fust stay up late once in a while, you know, to prepare something important for the exam day or something like that, I’m gonna in high spirits the next morning and even excel myself.

Yeah, I would say so. I consider myself an evening person, I love staying up late doing the things I like without being disturbed by others, although I do know it is not good for my health.

Seldom. As a kid, I didn’t have too much pressure. I mean neither the pressure from work nor study. And I remember my parents always forced me to sleep before 10pm

I always pull an all nighter binge watching my the tv series I like, scrolling through little red book or cramming for an upcoming exam.

Well, it really depends, if I have to get up super early the next morning, I will feel dizzy and tired. Well if I have enough sleep, I feel I am energized.

These days, I do find myself staying up late quite frequently. Whether it’s due to work demands or just winding down with some late-night reading, my nights tend to stretch longer than they probably should. I’m trying to get better at shutting down earlier, though, to ensure I get enough rest.

Not really,I had a pretty strict bedtime as a kid. However, during summer breaks or weekends, my parents would allow me to stay up a bit later to watch movies or play video games with friends. Those nights always felt like a special treat.

When I stay up late,it’s typically because I’m either catching upon work or lost in a good book or series. Sometimes, I use that quiet time for some creative projects like writing or drawing. It’s a peaceful time to focus without the usual daytime interruptions.

The next morning after staying up late usually feels quite rough. I tend to wake up groggy and sluggish, with a heavy sense of sleep inertia. It’s a struggle to get out of bed, and my energy levels are noticeably lower throughout the day.
