1
Hello and welcome to Learnivo IELTS Speaking Practice, where we build real confidence through real IELTS topics.
2
Today's theme is Carrying Things, a simple everyday topic that often appears in IELTS Speaking Part 1.
3
We'll explore 20 questions with answers that start easy and gradually become more expressive and natural, just like in a real test.
4
Feel free to listen, repeat, or even pause to try answering on your own.
5
Let's begin and improve your fluency step by step together.
6
What do you often carry with you?
7
I usually carry my phone and wallet with me because I need them almost everywhere I go.
8
They are small and easy to keep in my pocket, so I never leave home without them.
9
What do you usually take with you when you leave the house?
10
Whenever I go out, I take my phone, keys, and a small bottle of water.
11
I feel more comfortable when I have these basic things with me, especially if I will be away from home for a few hours.
12
Do you carry different things when you go to different places?
13
Yes.
14
What I carry depends on where I'm going.
15
For example, if I'm just going for a walk, I take only my phone and keys.
16
But if I go to work or school, I carry a bag with my laptop and some documents.
17
Have you ever forgotten to take something important with you?
18
Yes, once I forgot my ID card when I had an appointment, and it caused a lot of inconvenience.
19
Since then, I always double-check my bag before leaving.
20
What do you do if the item you need to carry is heavy?
21
If I have to carry something heavy, I usually use a backpack with good support.
22
It makes carrying weight easier and keeps my hands free.
23
Do you carry different things in the morning compared to the evening?
24
In the morning, I usually carry things for work like my laptop and lunchbox.
25
But in the evening, if I meet friends, I just carry simple items like my phone, some cash, and maybe a charger.
26
What are some things people usually carry when they travel?
27
When people travel, they often carry essentials like passports, tickets, chargers, and sometimes snacks.
28
Depending on the trip, they might also carry personal care items and travel documents.
29
How do you make sure you don't forget your things?
30
To avoid forgetting things, I usually make a mental checklist.
31
Sometimes I even place the items near the door so I can see them before leaving.
32
Do you like carrying a lot of things, or as little as possible?
33
I prefer carrying as little as possible because I feel more comfortable when I'm not holding too many things.
34
It gives me a sense of freedom and makes moving around easier.
35
Do you think people carry more things nowadays than in the past?
36
Definitely.
37
People today tend to carry more gadgets like phones, power banks, and earphones.
38
In the past, people only carried basic things like keys and wallets, but technology has changed our habits.
39
What do you think about using backpacks instead of handbags?
40
I think backpacks are more practical, especially for long days.
41
They distribute the weight evenly, which makes carrying heavy things more comfortable compared to handbags.
42
Do you think carrying too many things can cause stress.
43
Yes, carrying too many things can be stressful, especially if you keep worrying about losing something.
44
It also makes traveling less relaxing when you constantly check your belongings.
45
What do you usually carry when you go to work or school?
46
When I go to work, I carry my laptop, a notebook, some pens, and sometimes a small lunch.
47
I like to keep everything organized in one bag so I don't lose anything.
48
Do you carry any personal safety items with you?
49
Yes, I sometimes carry a small whistle or a safety alarm, especially when I go out late.
50
It gives me a sense of security even if I never actually need to use it.
51
Do you think it's important to be organized when packing your bag?
52
I believe being organized is very important because it saves time and prevents stressful situations.
53
When everything has its place, you don't waste time searching for things.
54
Have your carrying habits changed over the years?
55
Yes.
56
When I was younger, I used to carry almost nothing.
57
But now, I plan more carefully and take useful things with me, especially if I will be away for a long time.
58
Do you think carrying digital devices has changed people's habits?
59
Yes, carrying digital devices like smartphones and tablets has changed everything.
60
People rely on them for payment, maps, communication, and even entertainment, so they have become essential items.
61
Do you prepare your things the night before or just before you leave?
62
I usually prepare my things the night before because it helps me feel more relaxed in the morning.
63
It also reduces the chance of forgetting something important.
64
Are there any items you always carry, even if you rarely use them?
65
Yes, I always carry a small power bank, even though I don't use it every day.
66
I just like to be prepared in case my phone battery runs out.
67
Do you think carrying fewer things makes life easier?
68
I think carrying fewer things does make life easier because it allows you to move freely and worry less.
69
Minimalism in what we carry can actually lead to a clearer and more relaxed mind.
70

- /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: backpack /ˈbæk.pæk/, handbag /ˈhændˌbæɡ/, gadget /ɡæd͡ʒ.ɪt/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, snack /snæk/
- /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: organize /ˈɔɹɡənaɪz/, handbag /ˈhændˌbæɡ/, gadget /ɡæd͡ʒ.ɪt/
Zo oefen je met deze video

- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als backpack, organize, handbag.
Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
