IELTS Speaking Test - Part 1 - Topic: Swimming

1, Do you like swimming? Why?
Swimming is definitely my favorite sport. It brings me such a great sense of freedom that no other activity can allow me. I’ve found that swimming is the most effective way to take my mind off things that are troubling me.
2, How often do you swim?
Well, it really depends on a lot of different things, for example, weather. You know there are four distinct seasons in the northern area of Vietnam where I live and I only feel comfortable to set foot in the water when it’s warm enough. So, I tend to go swimming more often at certain times of the year than the others.
3, Is swimming good for children, in your opinion?
I certainly think children can benefit greatly from this activity. For the first thing, swimming is one of the best ways for them to stay healthy and keep fit. Besides, children’s being able to swim from early ages can help save many lives every year from drowning accidents, which happen more frequently among children than adults.
4, Should it be a compulsory activity for children at school? Why?
Let me think for a moment. I do think it’s extremely useful for schools to include swimming in their curriculum so that drowning risks can be reduced, like I mentioned earlier. But whether or not it should be made mandatory is a different story. Some schools simply can’t afford to provide proper swimming lessons for their students.
