Talking about tiredness in IELTS Speaking can be a challenge, not only for the vocabulary, but also knowing what to talk about. The IELTS Speaking Module is designed to assess your English Language Speaking Skills. To ensure a good score in the IELTS Speaking Module, you must study and practice the common Speaking Question types.
Get ideas on the sample answers below and practice to achieve your target band score. Here are some of the questions asked:
1. What kinds of things make you tired?
Answer – I’m generally a lethargic (tired; low energy) person, so I tend to get tired easily. I usually start to feel sleepy when I sit in a boring lecture and work in an office. Moreover, I tend to feel tired when I eat too much or drink alcohol.
2. What do you do when you feel tired?
Answer – Sometimes I decide to fight it with a cup of coffee or another form of caffeine, or I simply surrender (give up) and take a nap. However, when I take a nap, I tend to sleep for too long and feel even more tired afterwards, so it’s better to fight through my fatigue (tired).
3. Who do you usually talk to when you feel mentally tired?
Answer – Just my closest friends or family. When I feel that way, I don’t like to be in social situations in which I have to meet new people because I feel that I can’t give my best self to them. I would rather retire to my room to listen to some music and fall asleep.
4. Do you like to talk to strangers when you feel mentally tired?
Answer – Not at all. I like to have full energy when I meet new people. When I meet new people when I’m exhausted, I feel dull (boring) and unable to engage in meaningful conversation.
