do you get on well with your family

or do you have a best friend

this is IELTS daily and my name is Chris

this is the best place for you to learn IELTS every day

today we're looking at IELTS speaking part one let's go

lots of students who take the IELTS exam

tell us about the common topic of friends

family and relationships

let's start by looking at some useful vocabulary

and language

that you can use during your AILT speaking exam

this topic is very common

so I'm going to give you

some more advanced words to help you get a better mark

teaching time

get on with or get on well with

this means that you have a good relationship with someone

let's put it into practice

I get on well with my brother

repeat after me

I get on well with my brother

close family bond

a bond is a relationship that you have with somebody

now let's put it into practice

we have a close family bond at home

and now it's your turn

repeat after me

we have a close family bond at home

to be like chalk and cheese

this is an advanced phrase

that you can use to talk about 2 people

who are different

so if your sister and your brother are different

you can say they are like chalk and cheese

so my brother and sister are like chalk and cheese

now it's your turn

repeat after me

my brother and sister are like chalk and cheese

so there are some of the

phrases that you can use in the exam

now I'd like to look at some of the recent questions

and then I'll give you some example answers

shall we start

example questions and answers

do you have a large family

to be honest my family is pretty small

it's just me and my parents

I kind of wish that I had a brother or sister

do you have a best friend

I used to have a best friend when I was younger

but now I just have a close circle of friends

rather than just one best friend

is it more important to have family or friends

from my own personal point of view

I think it's better to have both

I get on really well with my family

but I couldn't live without my friends

I enjoy hanging out with them all the time

and sometimes I share some secrets with them

how often do you speak to your friends or family

if you speak to them very often you could say

I speak to them all the time

if you speak to them now and again

you could say I speak to them once or twice a week

and if you don't speak to them very often

you could say

not as often as I should

or about once or twice a month

let's learn some new vocabulary

vocabulary ideas

do you know the word siblings

siblings is just the word for your brother

or your sister

so the examiner may ask you

do you have any siblings

what about the words

extended family or nuclear family

well your extended family are your uncles your aunties

cousins grandparents

and your nuclear family

is just your parents and your siblings

how do you explain that your parents are

no longer married

well you could say they are divorced or separated

and what about if one of your family members has died

well you could say

I lost my father

or my mother passed away

so to lose somebody or somebody passed away

shall we look at a few more questions and answers

example questions and answers

do you often argue with your family

well I think with most families

there's some level of disagreement

when I was younger

my brother and I used to fight all the time

we used to fight like cats and dogs

but nowadays we're more mature

and we get on really well

summary
