Topic Having a day off-Bài mẫu IELTS Speaking Part 1 kèm từ vựng

1. What do you do on your day off?
On my day off, I usually unwind (v: relax after stress – thư giãn sau căng thẳng) by listening to music or going for a walk in the park. It’s my way of recharging my batteries (idiom: to rest and gain energy – nạp lại năng lượng) after a hectic week. For example, last Sunday I spent the whole morning reading a novel by the lake, which really helped me clear my mind.

New vocab: unwind, recharge my batteries
Synonyms: relax, loosen up, take it easy
Antonyms: stress out, overwork, strain
IELTS TUTOR xét ví dụ: On my day off, I usually unwind by listening to music.

Difficult grammar structure:

• By + V-ing (bằng cách làm gì đó)
  E.g: “I usually unwind by listening to music.” → Tôi thường thư giãn bằng cách nghe nhạc.

2. Do you prefer to spend your days off with your parents or with your friends?
I tend to hang out with my friends because we share like-minded interests (compound adj: having similar opinions or interests – có cùng sở thích hoặc quan điểm). We often hit the road (phrasal verb: start a journey – lên đường đi chơi) to explore new cafés or nearby towns, which adds excitement to our free time. For instance, last month we took a short trip to a coastal city, and it was unforgettable.>> IELTS TUTOR gợi ý tham khảo CẦN VIẾT & THU ÂM BAO NHIÊU BÀI ĐỂ ĐẠT 8.0 SPEAKING & 7.0 WRITING?

3. Do you want to have more days off?
Absolutely, having extra free time would let me pursue (v: to follow or engage in an activity – theo đuổi) my hobbies more seriously. However, I believe maintaining a work-life equilibrium (collocation: balance between work and personal life – sự cân bằng giữa công việc và cuộc sống) is what truly matters. For example, even a short weekend can feel fulfilling if I plan it wisely.
