2021年9-12月 雅思口语 Part 1 Topic 16 Outdoor 户外运动

1. Do you prefer to be indoors or outdoors?

Personally, I prefer to be outdoors than indoors. I love nature very much, so I am happiest when I am outside and I am surrounded by trees and wildlife. I like to look at the blue sky, and feel the sun upon my skin. I feel like staying indoors can often feel gloomy and claustrophobic (悲观的和幽闭的）. So I do not understand why anyone would prefer to be indoors than outdoors.

2. Did you like to go outside when you were young?

When I was young I used to spend a lot of time outdoors playing with my friends. There were all sorts of different games we would play in the public parks. We spent a lot of time in the sun, running around in fields of grass. As long as the weather was good, I would spend most of my time outdoors. However, if it was really cold or raining hard then I would not go outside very much.

3. Did you often go over to your friends9 house when you were young?

When I was young I would often go over to my friend’s house. After school, my friends and I liked to play games together and socialize. Sometimes we would do this outdoors, but in the winter it was too cold, so we would normally play at each other’s houses. It would always be a lot of fun, and we would play indoor games such as hide and seek. However, I think we all would have rather been playing outdoors.

4. Is it important for children to play outdoors?

I think it is very good for children to play outdoors. Playing outside develops a lot of healthy traits within a child. Often children play very energetic and sporty games when playing outdoors, therefore, playing outdoors is good for developing good exercise habits in children. Furthermore, playing outdoors offers children opportunities to develop their social skills which are very important in life. There are many benefits for a child who spends a lot of time playing outdoors instead of being in the house.
