IELTS Speaking Part 1 Topic History
Sample Answer 1
1. Have you ever been to historical museums?
Yes, I have. I think it’s a good way to learn about a city’s development or like the history and culture of a certain region. Because whenever I visit a place or another country that I’ve never been to before, I think history museum could be a must for me. Even though I’m not that interested in historical events and stuff, you could find a lot of other things in historical museums as well, like the culture, how people live their life, or how the city developed, so things like that.
2. Do you like history?
I mean, now I’m still not a big fan of it. I guess it’s because I just don’t care that much about history. I want to focus more on my present and also focus on the future. But I know that learning about history could be very an efficient and effective way for you to accumulate quite a lot of experience rather than actually going through it in your own life. Still, it’s just hard for me to get interested in it. So I wouldn’t say I like history.
3. When was the last time you read about history?
It’s hard to say. I mean, now I learned about some knowledge through mainly through some informative videos posted on the internet, uploaded by some reliable or credible like professionals. So, but if I’m not mistaken, I might read something about history when I did my dissertation. back when I was in my postgraduate study. At that time, I’ve researched some historical background of the topic that I would like to dig deeper. So that’s probably the last time when I read about history.
4. Did you like history when you were young?
When I was young, I wasn’t much of a big fan of history because at that time I didn’t learn it because of my own interest. It’s mostly because it’s a compulsory course in my middle school and I learned it from textbooks and sometimes it could be really exam oriented. So memorizing those events, the historical significance of it and the actual dates of it could really give me a headache. So I wasn’t into it at that time.
