Animals IELTS Speaking – Các câu hỏi thường gặp và câu trả lời mẫu
Pets and wild animals IELTS Speaking part 1
Yes, I’ve got a puddle. His name is Jack. I’ve adopted (nhận nuôi) him from a pet shop near my house. He is such a cute little thing. He always wags his tail (vẫy đuôi) whenever I come home from work. What’s more? When I feel bored, he often nuzzles his nose against my legs(dí mũi vào chân) to cheer me up.
Yes, definitely. Having a pet can be great fun. It seems that I can play with my puddle all day long (suốt cả ngày) without getting bored. There are lots of activities that we can do together. Sometimes, I just chase (đuổi) him around the house until we are both tired. I also teach him how to do some stuff like rolling over (nhào lộn), or fetching (lấy đồ).
There are several benefits that children can gain from raising pets. One of them is that children can develop a sense of responsibility (có tinh thần trách nhiệm) as they have to take care of their pets. They must learn how to feed their pets or how to bathe (tắm) them. Besides, having a pet also helps children lead a healthy lifestyle. By walking their pets (dắt thú cưng của họ đi dạo) around the neighborhood, children can find it a great way to do exercise.
I suppose there are many reasons that can explain this. The first one that comes to my mind is that having a pet nearby can help people feel less lonely. When they come home from work, they are always welcomed (luôn được chào đón) by their pets.
Besides, keeping pets can also improve both people’s mental and physical health. There is plenty of evidence showing that raising pets can help pet owners lower their blood pressure (huyết áp). As for mental health, people can confide (tâm sự) their secrets in their pets, and this would absolutely bring them some relief.
Pets and wild animals IELTS Speaking part 2
Describe a kind of wild animal. You should say:
- what the name of the animal is
- where you can find them
- what their life habit is
- and state what people have done to protect them
Giraffes (Hươu cao cổ) are the most interesting animals I have ever seen. They are one of the world’s tallest mammals (động vật có vú). Male giraffes can stand up to 19 feet tall. They are well known for (nổi tiếng về điều gì) their long necks, long legs, and spotted patterns (các hoa văn đốm). Giraffes have small “horns” or knobs (bướu) on the top of their heads that grow to be about five inches long. These knobs are used to protect their heads in fights.
Giraffes can be found in central, eastern and southern Africa. They usually live in Africa, where they roam (đi long rong) freely among the tall trees, arid land (vùng đất khô cằn), dense forests (khu rừng rậm rạp) and open plains (đồng bằng bao la). The long necks help giraffes eat leaves on tall trees, typically acacia trees.
If they need to, giraffes can go for several days without drinking water. Instead of drinking, giraffes stay hydrated (giữ nước) by the moisture (nước đọng lại) from leaves. Giraffes are social animals (những động vật có tập tính sống theo bầy đàn). They travel in large herds that are not organized in any way.
Like other wild animals, giraffes are facing threats from human beings. They are hunted for their meat, hide (da) and tails. The tail is prized for good luck bracelets (vòng tay đem lại may mắn). Fortunately, the government has enacted laws (thi hành luật) to protect them. The poachers (kẻ săn trộm) will be punished severely (bị trừng phạt nghiêm khắc) and several nature reserves (khu bảo tồn tự nhiên) have been established to protect their habitat
Lưu ý: Bạn hãy chú ý phiên âm của từ Giraffe là /dʒəˈræf/ nhé!
Pets and wild animals IELTS Speaking part 3
I don’t know if it counts but the first animal that comes to my mind is the dragon. It is considered a legendary creature (một sinh vật huyền thoại) in Vietnam. It appears in many architectural designs (thiết kế kiến trúc) in Vietnam. If you visit Vietnamese temples or pagodas, it’s not uncommon (không phải là hiếm) for you to notice images of this sacred animal carved on the walls of those places. Besides, for Vietnamese people, the dragon embodies (thể hiện/tượng trưng) strength and well-being.
Well, I don’t know about other countries, but in Vietnam, animals play many important roles. The first one is that they are an important food source of the Vietnamese. For example, pigs and cows are bred (được chăn nuôi) to provide meat and milk.
In addition, some animals are domesticated (được thuần hóa) to help people with their farming. They can use water buffaloes or oxens to pull a plow across the field to prepare for planting. Finally, some breeds (giống, nòi) of dogs are also trained to help their owners scare away (xua đuổi) burglars.
As far as I know, Vietnamese people are more and more conscious of (có nhận thức) protecting animals. From my observation, there are more zoos or nature reserves (khu bảo tồn tự nhiên) established to protect endangered animals. Besides, the government also enacted some laws (thi hành một số luật) against illegal hunting or trafficking. That’s not to mention, keeping a pet is also becoming more popular with the Vietnamese.
