hi there it's asiya do you know that there are just a few topics that each ielts speaking exam begins with in this video i'm gonna talk about one of them your hometown i'll show you sample answers

and give you some useful vocabulary to help you improve your answers there is also a pdf guide where you can find questions and sample answers for the other topics okay let's get started

first of all what is a hometown that's a place where you were born or lived as a child i've been living in london for 10 years but this is not my hometown actually i have two i was born in almaty

and grew up mainly in bishkek so i can talk about either if you're in a similar situation just choose one to keep it simple the first question is are you from a town or a village listen to this

answer and think if it's a good one i was born in almaty the largest city in kazakhstan with a population of about 2 million people almaty served as the capital of kazakhstan in the past and it's

still its main commercial and cultural center benefiting from its location along the ancient silk road can you feel that something is wrong that it didn't sound natural well that's because

this answer sounds like a wikipedia article because it is the wikipedia article i just copied it that won't do you'll be penalized for using memorized answers because they don't show

your english they show your memory so give an answer you would normally give in real life

i could say i'm from a city called almaty it's the former capital of kazakhstan or here is another option i'm from a small village called take in south kazakhstan and that's enough in these two

examples i directly answered the question and then gave a bit more information to explain where it is

there will be questions where you can say more so don't feel the pressure to just talk a lot all the time the next question is what is your hometown like okay so here i can say more

it's quite a large and modern city of over 2 million people it's growing fast because many people move there to work or study i like its hustle and bustle the city is located

in the foothills of the alatau mountains which means that the views are beautiful

and we can easily go hiking in summer and skiing in winter here are a few useful phrases hustle and bustle that's all the noise and activity we associate with a busy city you may love the hustle

and bustle of living in this city center but then require a break from all this hustle and bustle

you can also talk about a bustling city or neighborhood that's the one that is full of people moving around okay what kinds of public transport are there in your hometown

there are buses electrical trolley buses and trams and one metro line which took about 20 years to build that's definitely not enough for such a large city and as a result most

people use cars and traffic congestion is a major problem so public transport is british and public transportation is american and it includes buses trains taxes and so on if you

live in a small village there may be no public transport you can travel by public transport

traffic congestion that's when there are so many cars on the roads that they move very slowly and a traffic jam is when cars stop in one particular place as a result of congestion or a car accident

next what are people like in your hometown i find that people are generally friendly and quite open

i mean they share personal information with you freely so it's easy to make friends but i must admit that not everyone respects the queue so cue jumping is quite common which stresses me out to

respect the queue means to wait in line for your turn and that's what people in the uk do very well

there is even a joke that if you've been waiting for 20 minutes to discover that there is no queue

you're british cue jumping is quite rare here before we move on to the other questions i just want to say that you should practice your answers to these questions but don't learn them by

heart to keep them natural and if you want to work on your speaking skills with the teacher a great place to do that is cambly the sponsor of today's video it's an online learning platform where you

can practice your english with the native speaking teachers at any time that suits you you can choose a teacher you like or book lessons with different teachers to get used to a variety of accents you

can suggest a topic for your lesson or take ielts speaking lessons or even a mock speaking test

lessons start from just 15 minutes a day twice a week and you can take them at any time of the day or night at the moment you can take one 10 minute class for free and if you like it subscribe using

the link in the description to get an extra discount you save the most if you take a 12 month plan and if you change your mind you can still cancel your subscription and get a refund

you should definitely consider taking the free lesson while it's available all the links are in the video description box below and now let's continue you may be asked one of these questions

what is your town known for or what is the most interesting part of your town or

what would you recommend a visitor to see or do in your town

think what you could say in advance to avoid being caught off guard here is my idea

on the outskirts of almaty there is an outdoor skating rink called medellin

it's famous because of its high altitude and it's even hosted some international competitions

i think it's definitely worth seeing even for people who don't skate because the views from there are simply breathtaking on the outskirts of the city that's near the edge of the city far

from the city center to be worth seeing that's a good phrase breathtaking that's something that is so beautiful that it takes your breath away a breathtaking view is a common collocation

what kinds of jobs do people in your town or village do that's a common question but quite a tough one even people who speak english very well may find it difficult to answer it

you can actually see a mock speaking exam with this question linked in the description

so here is what i would say i suppose that most people work in manufacturing i know that there are some big factories in elma team others work in small businesses such as

shops and restaurants also almaty is known as the financial center of kazakhstan which means that some of the country's largest banks and this stock exchange are based in the city when you're

talking about your city or village you can start by saying that most people work in manufacturing agriculture fishing hospitality the services industry just choose the ones that suit you

usually a lot of people work in small and medium-sized businesses such as shops and restaurants and you can say if there are banks or if there are no banks where you live

and that will basically be enough next has your hometown changed much since you were a child

a lot when i see old photographs of almaty i can hardly recognize it it used to be a quiet medium-sized town but in recent years big developments have sprung up like mushrooms

the city center is now dominated by glass and concrete offices and big shopping malls i think the city has almost doubled in size in the last 20 years and has completely changed its appearance

okay it used to be that's something you can say when something was true in the past but it's not true anymore it used to be a quiet town to spring up like mushrooms that means to grow very quickly

and that's a common idiom to talk about buildings glass and concrete offices

shopping malls to double in size that means to become twice larger and basically this question is a great opportunity to use the perfect tense it has doubled in size or it hasn't changed much next

would you say it's a good place to live and why you know there are a lot of great things about living in almaty i like its climate the hot sunny summers and snowy winters i also think that

almaty's universities are the best in the country and the city offers good work opportunities

however traffic congestion and the related air pollution are big problems for those living there

so you can talk about great and limited job opportunities traffic congestion and of course air pollution right now you can download the pdf guide with the sample answers from this video and

answers to other topics used at the beginning of ielts speaking exams right here and don't forget to check out cambly if you like to practice your english with a native speaking teacher

thank you so much for watching me today good luck with your preparation and your exam bye

FOR YOU

雅思口语Part 1备考：家乡话题全解析

雅思口语考试开篇常涉及“家乡”话题，视频中讲师通过实例演示，教你如何摆脱生硬的“维基式回答”，用自然表达展现语言能力。这不仅有助于雅思口语练习，也能提升日常英语口语水平，适合通过看YouTube学英语的学习者。

必学5个实用表达

hustle and bustle：指城市的喧嚣与活力，如“我喜欢市中心的hustle and bustle”。
traffic congestion：交通拥堵，可替换“traffic jam”，更显地道。
on the outskirts of：位于市郊，描述地点时常用，如“博物馆在城市的on the outskirts of”。
breathtaking：形容景色绝美，“山顶的view真是breathtaking”。
spring up like mushrooms：像蘑菇一样迅速涌现，可用于描述城市建设，如“新楼spring up like mushrooms”。

影子跟读法（shadowspeak）实战指南

影子跟读法是提高英语发音和口语流畅度的有效方法。针对本视频，可按以下步骤练习：
1. 先听整段回答，抓住核心信息（如家乡的位置、特点）；
2. 逐句跟读，重点模仿语调与节奏，尤其注意弱读（如“it's”“that's”）；
3. 暂停视频，用自己的话复述，替换原句中的词汇（如用“busy”代替“hustle and bustle”）；
4. 对比原音，调整发音细节（如“Almaty”的重音位置）。
坚持每天15分钟，结合英语口语练习，可显著提升表达自然度。

通过视频中的真实案例，学习者能掌握雅思口语“家乡”话题的答题逻辑，避免背诵模板，同时借助影子跟读法夯实发音基础，真正实现“看YouTube学英语”的高效输出。

视频中的语法

说话人最常用的结构，并附上视频中的原话：

结构	视频中的用法
现在完成进行时 have/has been + -ing — 以前开始、现在仍在继续的动作	i've been living · you've been waiting
“used to” used to + 动词 — 过去的习惯或状态，现在已不再如此	used to be
被动语态 be + 过去分词 — 强调发生了什么，而不是谁做的	were born · was born · be penalized
定语从句 who / which + 从句 — 补充说明人或事物	mountains which means · people who don · people who speak

什么是跟读法？

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
