ย 

ย 

Can you fix things? ย 

ย 

(Answer 1) ย 

ย 

Yes, I can. Thanks to the internet as I learned how to fix different things at home from repairing clothes to unclogging sinks, and changing a broken bulb. At first, it was a bit difficult, however, as time went by (passed by), I could fix things without any trouble. I believe experience is truly the best teacher.ย  ย 

ย 

(Answer 2) ย 

ย 

Absolutely! I can fix leaky pipes and clogged sinks. Itโ€™s not really difficult as long as you have a basic understanding of the problem and you know what causes the problem. I believe anyone can do it, especially these days when there are so many videos or blogs that teach people how to repairย (fix) things.ย  ย 

ย 

Did anybody teach you how to fix things when you were young? ย 

ย 

(Answer 1) ย 

ย 

Well, no one, not even my dad. I learned how to fix things when I started living by myself because I had no one to ask for help. I just searched for some information online on how to unclog ย (remove accumulated matter) sinks, change a broken bulb, and things like that (and similar things). It wasnโ€™t difficult at all, thanks to the how-to articles that are accessible online.ย ย  ย 

ย 

(Answer 2) ย 

ย 

Yes, my grandpa taught me how to fix leaky pipes and clogged sinks. He was very good at it because he was a professional plumber who worked in the city government for 40 years. When he was still alive, he oftentimes paid a visit to my apartment and helped me fix things at home. He said that I needed to learn those things so that when he passed onย  (died), Iโ€™d be able to fix things at home by myself and heโ€™s right because when he died, I had no one else to ask for help.ย  ย 

ย 

Do you think it is necessary for people to learn to fix things? ย 

ย 

(Answer 1) ย 

ย 

I believe so. I consider it an important life skill. People should have at least some basic knowledge of how to fix a leaky pipe, a broken computer, a clogged sink, or change a tire. This is because we never really know when our unlucky day is to meet any of these troubles. At least (used to emphasize that something is good in a bad situation), when we get to experience any of these, we already know how to resolve the problem.ย  ย 

ย 

(Answer 2) ย 

ย 

Well, for some people, that isnโ€™t necessary as they can always pay to hire someone to fix some things, especially problems in the house. As for meย  (as far as Iโ€™m concerned), that is important as I consider it an important skill. Life will be much easier when I have some practical skills on how to fix things in the house. ย 

ย 

What do you do when things are broken and cannot be fixed? ย 

ย 

(Answer 1) ย 

ย 

I simply throw them away as theyโ€™re of no use anymore. I donโ€™t keep things at home that are not useful as they only occupy space. I canโ€™t understand why some people canโ€™t let go (give up) of the old things in their house that are not functional (useless), why keep the old and useless things, when you can simply discard them completely? ย 

ย 

(Answer 2) ย 

ย 

Itโ€™s either I throw them away or keep them. I keep those things that have sentimental value (value based on associations with fond memories or loved ones) for me. Itโ€™s just really hard for me to throw them away, I know it sounds crazy but thatโ€™s just the way I am. For instance, my first motorcycle is completely unusable and I keep it in our backyard simply because I had great memories of it.ย  ย  ย

All of the sample answers I provided on this website are a product of my experience as a band 9.0 achiever and an experienced IELTS speaking coach.

I've made sure that all of the sample answers are developed in a conversational and natural way because that is how I achieved a crisp band 9.0.
