XEM THÊM:[BAND 7+] TOPIC: CITY LIFE – IELTS SPEAKING PART 1 SAMPLE

1. Sample

What kind of decoration do you prefer?

I think that would be a comfortable, cosy fabric armchair. Some people may count it as an accessory but I’d rather think it a decoration. Ya know, a soft textured armchair may bring an airy vibe to our living room. And, ridiculously, I can be more creative when looking at the chair.

How is your home decorated?

Yes, my house is well decorated. My family consults several designers’ ideas when we decorate our home. Ya know, our home can be considered one of the most essential part of my family, so we are willing to spend more money and time to make it the most comfortable and wonderful place for the whole family to unwind after a long period of work and study.

What is your favourite color when decorating your home?

That would be gray. All of the walls in my house are gray, it may make my house look bigger and brighter. Moreover, I think that it’s much easier to replace, switch up interior accessories when all the walls are rolled on gray. So I consider this color as the greatest decorating flexibility.

Do people in your country like decorating their home?

Not really, most of the Vietnamese people don’t pay too much attention to décor their house, but I must claim that most of the houses are cosy and warm. I think that people cosy up their house by not decorating their house too much. Ya know, sometimes the guests will feel a little bit suffocated when they enter a well-decorated house.

What is the new decorating trend for this year?

Honestly, I really don’t know the emerging design trend this year. But I think somehow I could say that is non-white kitchens. I remember exactly that 10 years ago, there was a tendency to decorate an all-white kitchen where all the facilities, shelves, and islands in the kitchens should be white. But now, people are more inclined towards using natural wood cabinets and colorful stuff to décor their kitchen.
