1. Do you wear a watch? IELTS Speaking Part 1 Watch
Yes, of course. Firstly, watches are very useful because they can tell time and help me keep track of tasks. Also, as a fashion-conscious person, watches lend some visual interest to my ensemble. There are many types of watches with different styles and designs so I can mix and match them with each of my outfits.
- A fashion-conscious person (n): Một người để ý đến thời trang
- Lend some visual interest (v): Tăng vẻ đẹp cho cái gì
- Ensemble (n): một bộ quần áo, một tổ hợp phối đồ
2. Have you ever got a watch as a gift?
My mother gave me the watch I am wearing now. This is the gift I received for passing the university entrance exam – one of the most important exams in a student’s life. The watch I received was a Daniel Wellington automatic watch with a black leather strap. I really like this watch because of its simplicity and versatility, I can literally wear it on any occasion and with any outfit.
- Automatic watch (n): đồng hồ cơ tự động, đồng hồ lên dây cót tự động
- Strap (n): dây đeo đồng hồ
3. Why do some people wear expensive watches?
Most people think that others buy luxury timepieces to show off. But honestly, watches can bring you so much more happiness than shallow pretentiousness. Wristwatches last through decades, becoming a companion and a sentimental possession, and they can become valuable heirlooms. In addition, some watches have been a part of milestones and historical events like the Speedmaster in space and the Rolex Explorer on Everest.
- Watches = Timepieces = A time-keeping device = Wristwatches (n): đồng hồ đeo tay
- Shallow (a): Nông cạn
- Pretentiousness (n): Sự kiêu căng, tự phụ
- Sentimental (adj): nhiều tình cảm
- Heirloom (n): vật gia truyền
- Milestone (n): cột mốc
4. Do you think it is important to wear a watch? Why?
I think it depends. For those who want to be punctual, and disciplined, a time-keeping device on your body surely facilitates this. But there are also some people who prefer to use their mobile phones to check the time out of convenience. In addition, wristwatches, as I mentioned, accessorize your outfit, and give their owner a more presentable appearance, but many people prefer simplicity or some use bracelets as accessories.
- Punctual (adj): đúng giờ
- Disciplined (adj): có kỷ luật
- Facilitate (v): làm cho dễ dàng, thuận tiện hơn
- Accessorize (v): trang bị, cung cấp thêm phụ tùng, phụ kiện
- Presentable (adj): chỉnh tề, bảnh bao
