Hey everyone, welcome to IELTS Time.
2
Today we're looking at Parks and Gardens, a Common Part 1 topic.
3
You'll hear Finn and Blondie answering a series of questions on the topic.
4
Let's get started with Finn.
5
Do you often go to parks?
6
Not really at the moment.
7
I'm a university student and there isn't really a park near my university, so I don't have much of a reason to go to one during the week.
8
When I'm back home though, there's a park quite close to where I live
9
and I sometimes go there for a walk or to meet up with friends.
10
Is there a park or garden near your home?
11
Yeah, there's a pretty nice park about a 10-minute walk from my house.
12
It's not huge, but it has quite a lot of trees, a walking path, and a small playground.
13
I used to go there more often when I was younger and I still go there occasionally when I'm back home.
14
What do you usually do when you visit a park?
15
Usually I just walk around or sit somewhere and relax.
16
If I'm with friends, we might get some food and eat there, especially when the weather is nice.
17
I'm not really the type to go to a park specifically to exercise, so for me it's more about getting some fresh air and taking a break.
18
Did you often go to parks when you were a child?
19
Yeah, quite often.
20
There was a park near my house, so my parents used to take me there when I was little.
21
Later on, I'd go there with my friends after school.
22
We'd play football, ride our bikes, or just hang around and talk.
23
I have quite a few good memories of that place.
24
Are public gardens important for cities?
25
Yeah, I think they are.
26
Cities can be pretty crowded and stressful, so having green spaces gives people somewhere to relax and get away from all the buildings and traffic.
27
They're also useful for families and older people, and they can make an area feel much more pleasant overall.
28
What activities do children do in parks?
29
I think the most common ones are playing on the playground, riding bikes, and playing sports like football.
30
When I was a kid, my friends and I would sometimes just run around and make up our own games.
31
So I think parks are useful because children can be active
32
and spend time with other kids instead of being at home on their phones or playing video games.
33
Do people in your country like going to parks?
34
Yeah, I'd say they do.
35
Although it probably depends on their age and where they live.
36
Families seem to use them quite a lot, especially at weekends, and you often see people having picnics or going for walks.
37
Among university students, though, I think it's a bit less common, especially if there aren't any parks close to campus.
38
Do you prefer public gardens or natural parks?
39
I'd probably choose natural parks.
40
I like public gardens, but I find natural parks a bit more relaxing because they feel less artificial.
41
If I had a free day, I'd rather go somewhere with hiking trails and lots of trees, then somewhere that's been carefully landscaped just feels like more of an escape.
42
Do you prefer visiting parks alone or with other people?
43
Probably with other people most of the time.
44
If I'm back home, I might go with a friend and just walk around and catch up.
45
That said, I can see the appeal of going alone, especially if you want some time to yourself.
46
I just don't usually make the effort to go to a park unless I have someone to go with.
47
What improvements would you like to see in the parks in your area?
48
I think having more seating areas and better lighting would be useful.
49
Some parks near my home are quite dark in the evening, so people don't really use them after sunset.
50
I'd also like to see more facilities for teenagers and young adults, like outdoor sports areas, because playgrounds tend to be aimed mainly at younger children.
51
And that's the end of Finn's mock interview.
52
Now let's hear another set of answers from Blondie.
53
Do you often go to parks?
54
To be honest, not as often as I'd like.
55
Between work and general adulting, life gets pretty hectic.
56
so I usually only manage to drop by a park on the weekends, maybe once or twice a month when I need a breather.
57
Is there a park near your home?
58
Yeah, actually, there's a sweet little neighbourhood park just about a 10-minute walk from my apartment.
59
It's not massive, but it has a nice loop trail, plenty of shade and a small pond, which is great for a quick stroll.
60
What do you usually do when you visit a park?
61
It really depends on my mood, but most of the time I just put my headphones in, listen to a podcast and go for a brisk walk.
62
If the weather's nice, I might bring a book, lay out a blanket and just chill for an hour or two.
63
Did you often go to parks when you were a child?
64
Oh, constantly.
65
Growing up, my parents used to take my brother
66
and me to the local park almost every evening after school to burn off some energy.
67
We'd spend hours on the swings or playing tag until it got dark.
68
Do you prefer parks or gardens?
69
That's a tough choice, but I'd say parks take the top spot for me.
70
Gardens are absolutely gorgeous, don't get me wrong, but they can feel a bit rigid with all the strict rules.
71
Parks feel much more laid back.
72
You can actually stretch out on the grass without worrying about stepping on a prize rosebush.
73
What kind of parks do you like?
74
I'm a big fan of parks that strike a balance between natural wilderness and good facilities.
75
I love open green spaces with lots of mature trees, but I also appreciate practical stuff like well-paved walking paths and clean public restrooms.
76
Are there many parks and gardens in your city?
77
Surprisingly, yes.
78
My city has actually made a huge push toward urban greening over the last few years.
79
You'll find pocket parks tucked away in business districts, as well as a few massive botanical gardens near the city outskirts.
80
Do you think parks are important for cities?
81
Without a doubt.
82
They serve as the lungs of a city by improving air quality.
83
But more than that, they're crucial for mental health.
84
Living in a concrete jungle can be pretty draining, so having accessible green spaces gives people a chance to decompress.
85
Do you prefer visiting parks alone or with other people?
86
It depends on the goal, honestly.
87
If I'm going there to clear my head or unwind after a crazy week, I definitely prefer going solo, but if it's for a weekend,
88
picnic or catching up with friends, then the more the merrier.
89
What improvements would you like to see in the parks in your area?
90
I think better lighting and enhanced safety features would make a world of difference, especially for women visiting in the evening.
91
adding a few more trash cans and maybe in an outdoor cafe
92
or coffee cart would also make them a lot more welcoming and
93
that brings us to the end of blondie's interview now let's
94
take a closer look at some useful vocabulary from both interviews that you can actually use in your own answers
95
get some fresh air means to go outside
96
and spend some time outdoors usually because you've been inside for a
97
while it's a very common expression in everyday english and it's particularly useful when talking about parks, outdoor activities or relaxing.
98
For example, I sometimes go for a walk in the evening just to get some fresh air
99
or I like sitting outside on sunny days and getting some fresh air.
100
A brisk walk is a walk that is fairly quick and energetic.
101
It's faster than a casual stroll but it's not as intense as running.
102
It's a useful expression when talking about exercise, healthy habits or what you like to do outdoors.
103
For example, I usually go for a brisk walk in the evening if I've been sitting around all day.
104
Or, a brisk walk in the morning is a great way to start the day.
105
Hang around means to spend time somewhere without having a particular plan or purpose.
106
It's informal and very common in spoken English.
107
It's particularly useful when talking about what you did with friends or what you used to do as a child.
108
For example, when I was younger, my friends and I used to hang around in the park after school.
109
Or, we didn't have anything planned so we just hung around the town centre for a few hours.
110
Catch up means to spend time talking to someone and finding out what they've been doing recently, especially if you haven't seen them for a while.
111
It's extremely common in conversational English, so it's useful for questions about friends, weekends and social activities.
112
For example, I sometimes meet my friends at the park so we can walk around and catch up.
113
Or, I met an old friend last weekend and we spent a couple of hours catching up.
114
To burn off some energy means to do something active so that you use up some physical energy.
115
We often use this expression when talking about children, exercise or outdoor activities.
116
For example, my parents used to take me to the park
117
so I could burn off some energy or the kids usually play football outside to burn off some energy.
118
This is especially useful for questions about childhood or activities for children.
119
If a place is tucked away it means that it's located in a quiet or slightly hidden place, often away from busy streets or main areas.
120
It's a nice expression for describing where a park, cafe, restaurant or other place is located.
121
For example, there's a lovely little park tucked away behind the shopping centre
122
or we found a small cafe tucked away down a quiet side street.
123
Laid back means relaxed, informal and not stressful.
124
You can use it to describe a person, a place or an atmosphere.
125
When talking about parks it's a useful way to explain why you enjoy them.
126
For example, I like going to the park
127
because it has a really laid-back atmosphere or I prefer small restaurants because they tend to be quieter and more laid-back.
128
If you describe something as a bit of an escape you mean
129
that it gives you a chance to temporarily get away from your normal surroundings, responsibilities or daily routine.
130
It's particularly useful when explaining why you enjoy a particular place or activity. For example,
131
going for a walk in the countryside is a bit of an escape from the noise of the city
132
or for me reading in the park is a bit of an escape from my busy routine.
133
To decompress means to relax and release stress after a busy, tiring or demanding period.
134
It's slightly more advanced than simply saying relax but it's still natural in spoken English.
135
For example, I like going for a long walk in the evening because it helps me decompress
136
or after a hectic week I usually spend Sunday somewhere quiet and just decompress.
137
If something makes a world of difference it means that it has a very noticeable or significant effect.
138
This is especially useful when talking about improvements or changes that would make something better.
139
For example, adding more benches would make a world of difference for older visitors.
140
Or, better lighting would make a world of difference in the evening.
141
It's a great alternative to repeatedly saying something would be very helpful or very useful.
142
And that's it for today's lesson Remember you don't need to memorise Finn's or Blondie's answers word for word Instead,
143
take the ideas and expressions that feel natural to you And adapt them to your own experiences
