The important thing to keep in mind that the topic given in IELTS speaking test cannot be changed. With the speaking topic, 3 to 4 cues are provided which helps candidates to answer the question to the point.
Describe an energetic person that you know
You should say
- Who this person is
- How you know this person
- Why you think this person is energetic
- And explain how you feel about this person
Nowadays, most people are in sitting jobs and often work in long shits to earn bread and butter. This leaves them less time for themselves and the work exhausts them. Thus most people prefer to stay at home after work instead of doing any physical activity.
Here, I would like to talk about my father Mr John Simmons who is quite energetic. He joined the army at a very young age and he worked in a cadet for 20 long years. After retirement from the army, he did not sit at home to enjoy his life even he was having a good income in the form of a retirement pension from the government. He started working in a local company as a supervisor.
His lifestyle makes him quite unique from other people. He gets up at 4:00 AM and goes for a morning walk and do some exercise to keep his body fit and healthy. After a shower, he goes to the temple to pay obeisance. He also reads the newspaper on a daily basis before he leaves to work. He comes back to home at 6:00 PM and then he takes some rest. After a few minutes, he is ready to work in the kitchen garden in the backyard of our home. There he spends at least an hour caring and nurturing plants. Even he is about 55 years old, still, he has good stamina.
He is a role model to me and I have inherited many traits from him, such as get up early in the morning, love nature and so on. I feel so lucky to be the son of such a great person and he is a ray of sunshine for me.
So he is the person who I believe has enormous energy and spirit.
