2021年9-12月 雅思口语 Part 3 Topic 34 不用工作学习的一天（9-12月新题）

1. Do people have more free time than those in the past?

I think that for some people they have more free time than those in the past. In the modem world China is a much wealthier country than it once was, this means that a lot of people are working higher paid jobs than people did in the past. With higher paid jobs it is easier for people to take time off and enjoy themselves. However, this is not true for everyone. There are still many people who must work long hours to earn enough money to survive.

2. What do people like to do when they are free in your country?

People in China like to spend their free time relaxing and enjoying recreation with their friends. For example, many people in Beijing spend the weekends doing fun things in the city such as going to the cinema or dining at some of the brilliant restaurants. Furthermore, during long breaks, such as title spring festival, people in China like to travel to different parts of the country and experience the culture of other regions or visit distant family.

3. Do you think most people are able to manage their free time well?

I think that time management is a very important skill to learn and not everyone is very good at it. There are many people in the modem world who find it far too easy to be distracted. They spend lots of their time on social media or watching television on streaming services. This type of behaviour can be very time consuming and lead to poor time management habits. Therefore, I believe that only diligent people are able to manage their free time well.

4. Do people nowadays have more free time than in the past?
