I eat ice cream occasionally, but not a lot. I try to limit my intake as it is not the healthiest option. But I definitely indulges in it from time to time as special treat.

I want to talk about my best friend Sarah. She is an extremely generous person and always looking for ways to help those around her. Sarah is one of the most compassionate person I know. She is always willing to listen when someone need to talk and offer words of encouragement when they need them most. She also has a great sense of humor that can brightens anyone's day. One of the ways in which Sarah help others is by volunteer her time at a local animal shelters. She help with everything from walk the dogs to clean the kennels. Additionally, she has taken in animals that were abandoned or homeless and give them a loving home.

Children can contribute to the household and support their parent in several way. First, they can assist in...with daily chore such as tidy up their room, make their beds, and keep common areas clean. By taking responsibility for their personal belonging and maintaining cleanliness, children can lightens their parents' workloads.
https://ielts-audio-stor…df2163c188b4.wav

Absolutely. Children should be taught the value of help others from young ages. Teaching children to help others cultivate empathy, compassion, and a sense of social responsibility. When children learn to assist others, it develops important life skills such as cooperation, teamwork, and problem solving.

Children are motivated to help each other at school for several reason. First, a sense of camaraderie and belonging foster a supportive environment where children naturally wants to help their peers.
https://ielts-audio-stor…74698a196e89.wav

Students should definitely engages in community services for several compelling reason. First, community services helps students develop a sense of social responsibilities and empathies towards other. By actively participating in service activities, students becomes aware of societal issue and the challenge faced by underprivileged community.

Actually, I have a very clear timetable in a day. For example, I always plan to have a morning jogging with my closest friend and after that we will have breakfast together and start our daily writing some diary or do some homeworks together.
https://ielts-audio-stor…265b8d51998e.wav
null
Frankly speaking, it's not easy because I think every different day I had this different task to do. So in day I must choose what is the most important thing for me and do it first. Then I will have time to do some unnecessary things or take a break or do some thing. Just make me happy.
https://ielts-audio-stor…83ce06e50aab.wav
null
I guess it must be final weekday because in that days that means after this week we will have the final examination. There are a lot of assignments for us to do and some books for us to review. I find time is limited but my talks is a lot...are a lot so I must, I just have difficulty to find what is the most important major for me to review.
https://ielts-audio-stor…7ed0f05a07e5.wav

Yes, I definitely I love being busy because when you're busy, your mind just not like you're taking a break, your mind will be wondering if you're busy, you can concentrate on one thing clearly, you focus on it and that means you bury yourself into it. You will have more self-achievement after finally making it.

For a place to meet my friends, I would like to say must be a small cafe nearby my university. That is a really familiar place for me and my roommates because we always meet in that coffee. I guess there has, I guess just because they're have quiet atmosphere and delicious refreshment. Students there always like to have gossips with other people. It's really chill.
https://ielts-audio-stor…0c21fe863f6c.wav
null
Yes, I think so. Because different place, we can meet different people. For example, for meeting Chloe's friends, maybe we will choose some small restaurant or small coffee that is casual and comfortable. But for meeting some professors or an older generation, maybe we should choose some traditional restaurant or even their bookstores that we we have quiet atmospheres to talk about some important things.
https://ielts-audio-stor…ea6e871f02a3.wav
null
Yes, it must be different. I mean, my favorite place to meet person...to meet people in my childhood it must be amusement park park because that is funny and we can have some playing programs there. We will have really fun time but now I...I was growing up, you know, I just have so many things to... I just need a place that we can have a efficiently conversations so that must be different.
https://ielts-audio-stor…4abc380d3cc3.wav
null
I mean some meeting place have different points like for example, book store compared to…comparing to restaurants. Book store have more quiet environment and people may can...maybe can talk some important things there. But restaurant is more casual and flexible.
https://ielts-audio-stor…fea033b599cc.wav
null
Yes, because currently I'm a university student and our Chinese students always have a lot of class to take. So we just have maybe 10 or 15 minutes to break and an hour class after class means we should sitting for a long time. That is normal phenomenon, I guess.
https://ielts-audio-stor…6cf112242bc2.wav
null
I think it depends. If I was taking a class that I not really interested in it, maybe I will feel asleep like just teacher just talking about something by himself. Every person in the class will have mind wandering and think like what are they talking about or they will do some things by their own.
https://ielts-audio-stor…315e56402073.wav
null
I guess I can't…I can't remember clearly but I guess it must happened because in my childhood my parents were too busy to take care of me. So I always played alone or sat…sat on the floor to way they're came home.
https://ielts-audio-stor…b664aff5f142.wav

Okay, I would like to share a person who impressed me most when I was in primary school. I remember it must be my PE class teacher, Wang. He is a tour guide, and I remembered at that time he just graduated from his university. And in that time I was, you know, I just I was not good at sports. I hate running, but 8...but 800 meters running is one of the most important final examination programs. So Mr. Wang just find me have difficulty in, you know, pass this examination. And he is so patient and always takes conversation with me and help me to find the problems in why I was so dislike PE class. And I mean after class he will spend time to running with me and help me to improve my PE skills. And I was appreciate for his support support because I think he is a good teacher.
https://ielts-audio-stor…b4c40a9a5faa.wav

At primary school, I guess every girl talks about others because...about this person because my PE class teacher one is really handsome and have muscles, he have big...he have good body shape so every girls are...were talking gossips about he and you know just girls always like gossips so...
https://ielts-audio-stor…757280b25cd9.wav

I guess childhood is different from when they growing up. In childhood maybe they will have more time to play and they have no... less stress than when they growing up compared to. For example, in childhood they can bury themselves into some playing things but when they grow up they have some, you know, students have assignments and workers have working pressure so.
https://ielts-audio-stor…7bb942abd54f.wav
null
I guess yes because kids have you know kids always have more always have more amusement things than adults because for them it is simple for them to be happy for example when they get new toys or have delicious foods can make them happy but as a adult maybe they are stressful and they have experience a lot of time a lot of things it's hard.
https://ielts-audio-stor…5508cab87a79.wav
null
I think they must have adorable personalities. For example, they should be patient and they can have beautiful or handsome attractions or they are good at playing with kids. Just can solve their problems, always taking care of them. Maybe they will fall in love with these teachers.
https://ielts-audio-stor…857fe7adbb4b.wav
null
No, I don't have pets now. But I used to feed a dog and one kid.
https://ielts-audio-stor…ed1181b6df6e.wav
null
I think pet care instead of children for us because he can give us some happiness and make me feel happy.
https://ielts-audio-stor…3cf4d57d0bef.wav
null
Oh, actually always because there are too many dogs around my house because my neighborhood also feed dogs.
https://ielts-audio-stor…4bce11c0212d.wav

I think for species animals we need to set up a nature device such as we can support wetland for snakes or other other fishes.
https://ielts-audio-stor…b9f1015a4ba5.wav
null
Yes, because I live nearby farm.
https://ielts-audio-stor…a3d35f040c53.wav
null
I like four of vegetables and some plants. I think it can be... make me feel happy and make me feel enjoyable.
https://ielts-audio-stor…81dbc6a2ab91.wav
null
Of course, farming is a important part of our country because we need to eat some rice from farming. So we can't...we can't be part of farming.
https://ielts-audio-stor…0370e2bd3558.wav
null
Actually not, because I'm not often go country, so I don't have chance to do some farming.
https://ielts-audio-stor…7c4f5677d8d0.wav
null
When I feel tired, I will have some…have some rest, such as when I working for a long time, maybe over 8 hours a day, I will take a rest when I'm laying bed.

null
For me, I usually watches…I usually watch mobile phone and chat with my friends.

I think it's good for our health because it can relax ourselves and give us enough sleeping time. It can give us some energy to work hard and be able to…be able to work hard and put our attention on our work…works.

Yes, I'll describe a time I make a promise to my childhood friend. When I was a child, I'm a shy boy and I don't have another friend for me. So one day I went to park to to hiking and I met a boy, maybe he is same age with me. And he asked me, who are you? and do you like to play with me? In that time, I think, oh, this boy is brave and he is outgoing. So I...I played him. I'd like. So we play together at that time. In the last, we need to go home. He promised he advised me to visit him...his homes. And I and I agree. So we each...we promised each other to visit each homes. I think it's not...not hard promise, but for me, that time it's hard to come true. But...
https://ielts-audio-stor…abf819a1dee3.wav
null
No, actually no. Because I think it's a secret of us so I don't tell another people.
https://ielts-audio-stor…f5b71d413b98.wav
null
I think it is a promise...promising about eating with each other. I think it's…I think it happened our sides every day. Such as, do you want to eat lunch with me? So maybe I will agree it so we can do it it often.
https://ielts-audio-stor…6e492525b4a8.wav
null
Yes, of course, such as parents often say, if you get a high grade, I will buy a toys what you like to you. It's a common thing.
https://ielts-audio-stor…2b2b04673aac.wav
null
I think not often because when when I'm a children…when I'm a child, my classmates often don't come to their promise to me.
https://ielts-audio-stor…0d746e985ab9.wav
null
Maybe he…maybe they don't want to come to the edge it's first time. So they just treat you.
https://ielts-audio-stor…18f095b99571.wav
null
No, I don't have pets now, but I used to have a pet. Yes, it's a little dog, but now he he actually died.
https://ielts-audio-stor…fb8cf0d25369.wav
null
I think pets can bring some happiness to people and give us more and more happiness. They can play with us and give us some improved actions.
https://ielts-audio-stor…012c983929f6.wav
null
For species animals, I think it's need to set up a natural service. It can be good with them and protect them well.
https://ielts-audio-stor…66bb38c23870.wav
null
Yes, every day because I live in country so I can see the farm around my house.
https://ielts-audio-stor…db3de1b2e183.wav
null
Yes, of course. Farming is a important part of our country. And it's been close to our lives. Because we need to eat rice, noodles. It's all comes from farming.
https://ielts-audio-stor…2db3ec77fbcd.wav
null
Actually not because when I'm young, I just a little boy, maybe four to five ages. So I can't do some high farming so my grandparents don't want to, don't want me to do some farming.
https://ielts-audio-stor…dbe46abb99f2.wav
null
Maybe twice a day. It's night and in the afternoon, I will get some nap.
https://ielts-audio-stor…8cea1b189f05.wav
null
I usually have a nap in the afternoon and play mobile phone when I have a rest.
https://ielts-audio-stor…f08cfd9008a6.wav
null
Yes, of course. I think nap can be good for me and relax myself.
https://ielts-audio-stor…7823b2e4557c.wav
null
It's it's a good way to keep our health and make us feel more…more and more energized to give us some supporting to work hard and delete our pressures.

Yes, I will describe a time I make a promise to my childhood friends. When I was child, I'm a shy boy and I don't have any friends. But one day I went...I played a park and I met a boy who is my child...my great friend now. He is outgoing and he went forward to me. He...he invited me to play together. And we played whole day at that time. And when we went back home, he invited me to visit his house. So we promised each other one day we'll invite each other to visit homes. So maybe you think it's a simple promise, but for for me, in that time, I need to be more and more brave to promise him. And it's a huge step for me to be outgoing and make a new friend. So I think promise is not... I think promise is important for me and that time gave me much brave now. So...
https://ielts-audio-stor…5bd29c472258.wav
null
No, I think it's a secret of us, so I don't tell another people about it.
https://ielts-audio-stor…6922ade332a2.wav
null
Maybe about eating dinner. I think eating dinner is a promise, which is often happen. Such as my friends will ask me, do you like to watch…do you like to eat KFC? I will say, yes, I do. So we promise each other. Maybe tonight we'll eat together.
https://ielts-audio-stor…fbad25b241f6.wav

Yes, of course, parents always promise children, such as, if you can get a high grade, I'll I'll buy a new toy for…to you.
https://ielts-audio-stor…3e99d31b7de2.wav
null
I think it's not because when I was young my classmates always like me and he don't keep the promise.
https://ielts-audio-stor…cc10f8bcaea8.wav
null
Maybe, as a first time, they don't want to keep their promises. So they just like to...
https://ielts-audio-stor…6310c9a5fb83.wav
null
Well, I have heard about it, but I'm not quite sure it will last for long, cause you know, the distant to working requires you to get satisfactory equipment, and your boss have to be rely on you, cause my...many bosses may worry about that people will not be working, since they're work at home, they might be playing computer games or other kind of things.
https://ielts-audio-stor…68b5702b2194.wav
null
I see a point cause you know remote work can reduce the cost, especially human cost for all the companies. But actually, this also create a threat to the employees, cause if you work at home, it means you have no distinguished work time and home time. You might work every time since you have your computer by your side. It will be really discouraging for people's effective.
https://ielts-audio-stor…19d0de8bb699.wav
null
Well, when I try to stay focused, many things can distracts me. It likes some noise, some interesting things, or just a phone call. I often find a very quiet room and turn off my phone. Then when I put down my headphones and can no longer hear my noise, I can focus.
https://ielts-audio-stor…4fd0d2adfe88.wav
null
I think it's very difficult you know and just like I said when I try to stay focused many things can distract me. I like some noise, some interesting things or just a phone call you know.
https://ielts-audio-stor…fe71d8101eb1.wav
null
Well, I like to read books related to computers and when I encounter work difficult, you know, I am the software engineer so I often use the computer for my work.
https://ielts-audio-stor…23b8637f7b12.wav
null
Well, I think reading is very necessary because we can get some money and get some knowledge in the books. I think it's very interesting and it's a very important way to get the knowledge like the computers knowledge, like the physicals knowledge, and the very important way I think.
https://ielts-audio-stor…4ef6937d5403.wav
null
I go to the zoo every weekend because I really like the animals.
https://ielts-audio-stor…7193dfded9a6.wav
null
I think visiting the zoo is very meaningful. We can see many animals... and there are a lot about the animals, just like a panda eat the bamboo, and tiger eat the meat. It's very interesting, I think.
https://ielts-audio-stor…2237021e507e.wav
null
Well, I normally don't have a fixed schedule or timetable for the day. I just do whatever comes to my mind. Sometimes I would try to finish my assignment from the school and other times I would just stay at home and watch TV or play games because I'm a typical couch potato.
https://ielts-audio-stor…b45fdac02c31.wav
null
Well, I guess so cause in the school most of the time I know how to make a plan by myself and sometimes my teacher also helps us to make the plan according to the amount of assignments we have to deal with. So it's not really a big deal, but I kind of feel that it's more difficult for me to accomplish my plan.
https://ielts-audio-stor…b1be67f2b80a.wav
null
Well, I guess it's whenever the examination is coming cause during that period, I am always in a hurry, I mean in a rush every day. And I have a really hectic schedule. So sometimes I would mess up. Like I don't really know what to do first and what to do for the next. So that's a problem for me when...during this period.
https://ielts-audio-stor…e42c8e6e7eb6.wav
null
Yeah, I guess so, cause sometimes a busy schedule can help me to improve my productivity and my efficiency. It would actually motivate me to work harder to accomplish my goal, but this doesn't happen all the time. Sometimes when I'm super busy with the things I have to deal with, I would feel panic and I have no idea what to do next.
https://ielts-audio-stor…9824aa1ffcb8.wav
null
Actually, we don't have a favorite place, I guess, because every time we go out, we would have actually different plans Sometimes we would hang out to some new shopping malls, and we would have dinner in the newly opened restaurant. Sometimes we would probably just stay at home and watch a movie together So there is no favorite place, I guess
https://ielts-audio-stor…723ec0362916.wav
null
Yeah, cause some places are meant to be an ideal place for people to hang out and chat with each other. Places like cafe and maybe a tea shop or maybe a small bakery where people can sit and have a lovely conversation.
https://ielts-audio-stor…63eaf00019f6.wav
null
Well, yeah, as I have mentioned for now, we don't really have a favorite place. But when I used to be a little boy, I always loved to hang over with my friends to the nearest playground or maybe some gaming hall where we could play some game.
https://ielts-audio-stor…df86830395a5.wav
null
Well, I guess the first reason is the environment is so much better than the other places. Normally people would love to hang out to places which is quiet and with good service and when the decoration style is fancy. And secondly, I wanna mention about maybe the food and drinks cause sometimes it also means a lot for people to meet and it will lighten the people's mood.
https://ielts-audio-stor…998ef4f31ee3.wav
null
My favorite place to sit probably is the sofa. I spend a lot of time watch American TV dramas. So sitting on the sofa really makes me very comfy and refreshing.
https://ielts-audio-stor…98133279b4a6.wav
null
Yes, I think so. And sitting there for a lot of time is really common for Chinese students cause normally we have more than 8 hour classes every day. So it's quite normal.
https://ielts-audio-stor…ee78cd4b1a4a.wav
null
Sometimes, yes. When I have classes in the morning and I mean in the... like at 7 to 8 o'clock, I'm…I would feel a little bit hazy, I'm sorry dizzy, and my head would just spin over cause I didn't sleep well the day before.
https://ielts-audio-stor…058dfebcfafd.wav
null
Yes, that happens. That happened a lot. When I was a kid, I loved to sit on the ground and play with my toys. And sometimes where there was a…a sand boat in the neighborhood, I would played the sand with my peers.
https://ielts-audio-stor…81c2377b7410.wav
null
Okay, so the person I would love to share with you today is one of my favorite teacher during the primary school. Her name is Nancy and she used to be the Chinese teacher in my primary school. She was around her 20s and she always dressed up in a really fancy way so she was really popular among the students and also the teachers. And she shined a lot when she smiled. She was a very loving and caring person. So one of the reasons why I was quite fascinated about this teacher was because she was like a mother to me. You know, my family was kind of broken when I was a little boy. My father and my mother got divorced when I was around two and I never felt the...the feeling of having a mom. And after she heard about my story, she really cared me a lot when I was in the class. Like during the lunch break, she would actually brought me back to her office and she would share with me a lot of snacks she loved and she also told me whenever I felt lonely, I could talked with her and that really helped me a lot when I was in the primary school. So I guess that was why I fancied her a lot.
https://ielts-audio-stor…ee69880c57c4.wav
null
Uh, things like playing video games and or walking dogs around the park just a blocks away near my house, or riding a bicycle around city.
https://ielts-audio-stor…ec47dab15d3b.wav
null
Yeah, sometimes but not too often cause normally we don't talk a lot about our favorite teachers during the primary school. We normally spend more time sharing what happens recently.
https://ielts-audio-stor…3e030f50f8bb.wav

Literally nothing. Last weekend I just finished my final exam so I'm tired. I sleep all day until…until my mom call me for dinner.

I beg your pardon.

Well, in my birthday, to be honest, I won't celebrate my birthday because it's my mother's suffering day. I usually bought a bunch of flowers for...as a gift to him…to her.
https://ielts-audio-stor…c1e356e15687.wav
null
Not really. If you want a gift, if...if you want buy anything just buy it. Don't wait…wait until your birthday. And it's pretty tough these days to carry people around.
https://ielts-audio-stor…50e3af422e59.wav
null
Well, I guess it's because for most people, their childhood was really an innocent period of their life. They used to be worry-free and they have plenty of leisure time, which are something they don't really have for now cause adults and maybe university students, young people, I mean, they have limit of leisure time that they can take control of. So they will always feel that childhood is a great...
https://ielts-audio-stor…286bd318bdc8.wav
null
Well, perhaps some leaders.
https://ielts-audio-stor…c3c46b9ad23c.wav
null
Pop music perhaps. I prefer the old…old school style.
https://ielts-audio-stor…f3867d3fc2af.wav
null
I don't think so. What I feel about this question is actually children and adults will share different types of happiness. For children, their happiness is more like to secrete dopamine from the brain. They will feel happy of some simple things like buying a new toy or having dinner in a new restaurant. But for adults, they will probably feel delighted when they accomplish their goals or achieve their dreams.
https://ielts-audio-stor…42dccfb89631.wav
null
Yeah, from time time, after I finish my job or work and laying...lying on my bed, I will listen to some of these.
https://ielts-audio-stor…81e2cff69c78.wav
null
Perhaps Mozart is a really talent musician.
https://ielts-audio-stor…d039cbc9f8d9.wav
null
I think most kids are...would find the loving and easygoing teachers are more preferable cause children love those kids who can step closer to them, that they showed more empathy and they would try to feel what the children feel. They would be too judgmental and also kids love to spend time with those teachers who are funny, who love to make jokes cause they make their school life more delightful.

Maybe the big change is numbers, you know. When I'm child, my city only have two park to play and to dance, but now I think is 100 or 200 parks. Is a very large number I think, so the biggest change is a number I think... in my opinion it's true.
https://ielts-audio-stor…9a0a2c2d4524.wav
null
The park I think because in China you can see many old people dance and walk in the park. And the park is free so they don't need to pay for you know. It's very nice for the old people and the square is a good place too. We...they can dance there with some music of square. I think it's very comfortable.
https://ielts-audio-stor…68860ef80398.wav
null
Well, now the public place is very interest and you know in China many public place is free and very beautiful and such as some park and some tower so people can go, young people can go there and with their friends to play, to talk and it's a good place to date I think.
https://ielts-audio-stor…0b12041d03a1.wav
