IELTS SPEAKING PART 1: ADVERTISEMENTS [ANSWERS]

 

 

PART 1

 

ADVERTISEMENT

 

ANSWERS

 

 

 

Are there many advertisements in your country?/Is there much advertisement in your country?  

 

(Answer 1)   

 

Undeniably, yes! There are countless of them, especially if you’re watching a TV program that’s really popular. Because there are so many ads, you’re highly likely to lose interest in the program as those ads,  unfortunately, spoil (destroy) your enthusiasm (excitement).   

 

(Answer 2)  

 

Unfortunately, yes! So many of them that you can’t even count. Not only in the traditional media but even on the internet and in the streets. Well, that’s not surprising since the advertising industry is giant (major, big). Almost all companies rely on (depend) ads to promote their products and services to people as that method is the most effective revenue driver.   

 

How do you feel about advertisements?

 

(Answer 1)

 

I think advertisements are too much these days. I mean everywhere we go we can see ads such as billboard ads, LED advertisements, fliers, posters on the streets, and even online ads. It simply goes to show (serves as proof of something) that the advertising industry is incredibly massive. 

 

(Answer 2)

 

Well, some ads are helpful, especially those informative ads or testimonial ads. They can help customers like me understand which product or service suits my needs. Although there are some ads that are deceptive (misleading), still most advertisements are helpful to consumers. 

 

Do you like advertisements?

 

(Answer 1)

 

Not at all. They’re annoying, especially when they interrupt me from watching my favorite TV program or when I watch videos on YouTube. But what can I do? That’s just how TV networks generate income and I just have to deal with it. 

 

(Answer 2)

 

Generally not but some ads are very helpful. They inform or educate the public about a certain product or service that can help them address their problems. Without ads, we wouldn’t be informed about products or services, and TV networks and content creators wouldn’t prosper (succeed) since the money they get from ads helps them sustain (keep going) their programs.

 

 

What advertisements do you have in your country?

 

(Answer 1)

 

I think all types of advertisements from household products to personal ones and different kinds of services such as pest control, plumbing, and many more. Honestly, I don’t pay attention (think about) to ads that appear on TV because like I said, I find them annoying. 

 

(Answer 2)

 

Well, common ads such as beauty care products, fast food, or any product that consumers use in their homes. Normally, I can see these ads on TV, billboards, and online.  Ads are certainly a part of our everyday lives.

 

 

Which advertisements are you interested in watching, TV advertisements or internet advertisements?  

 

(Answer 1)   

 

Honestly, none of them! I hate ads simply because they’re distracting. I hate it when I’m watching a very exciting part of a TV drama then all of a sudden (suddenly), it’s cut because ads need to play. All the high intense (extreme) emotions are spoiled (destroyed) because of the commercial and that’s undeniably annoying.   

 

(Answer 2)   

 

Well, I think nobody likes advertisements because they’re usually time-consuming. However, if I had to choose one between the two, I’d rather go for internet ads because I have a choice to skip them. Unlike TV ads that I really need to endure (go through) a series of commercials until the TV program that I watch returns.   

 

 

What kinds of advertisements do you dislike?  

 

(Answer 1)   

 

All of them! As I  said earlier, I hate ads as they’re stealing my time. However, I really understand because those ads are the ones that fuel (support) the TV network, social media companies like YouTube and Facebook, and content creators financially. Without ads, those institutions and video creators won’t exist since ad money is making them survive in the industry.  

 

(Answer 2)  

 

I abhor (to feel hatred) those ads that portray (show) violence, especially those mobile or computer game shooting ads. I’m very sensitive to shooting scenes because of the never-ending (unstoppable) shooting violence in the US. I think those kinds of ads influence children, or people who are mentally ill, or those who have psychopathic or sociopathic behavior. I believe those types of ads can trigger them to do something nasty (unpleasant).   

 

Do you want to work in advertising in the future?  

 

(Answer 1)   

 

No, I don’t think I have any talent for advertising. I believe if one wants to work in that kind of industry, he must have creativity and the ability to convey (deliver) the message of the product or service that can surely entice (attract) people. And honestly, I don’t think I possess (have) those kinds of skills.   

 

(Answer 2)  

 

Well, if there’s an opportunity, then why not? I’m the kind of person who loves trying new things. I think I’ll be able to utilize my creative thinking skills if I get the chance to work in the advertising industry. I know that working in that industry is demanding but I’m up for it (willing to try something out).

 

What kind of advertisements do you watch?  

 

(Answer 1)  

 

I watch all sorts (types) of advertisements, I mean I don’t have any choice but to watch whatever ads that appear on TV. However, when it comes to ads on social media, I’m selective on what ads I’m fine watching and the good thing is that I can skip some ads but if I’m watching a channel of my favorite YouTubers, I never skip ads as I want them to make money from their hard work.   

 

(Answer 2)  

 

As I’m more into gadgets, most of the time, I enjoy watching commercials that are tech-related (technology) because I want to be updated with the latest products from my favorite tech companies. Though I also enjoy watching commercials for beauty products, I can say that I don’t watch those ads as often as gadget-related ads.    

 

Where can you see advertisements?  

 

(Answer 1)  

 

Advertisements are undeniably (unable to be denied) everywhere! We all can see them on TV, in newspapers, online, on billboards, and even hear them on the radio and on podcasts. The advertising industry is a gargantuan (massive ) money-making industry, as a result, they appear everywhere.   

 

(Answer 2)  

 

Well, most of the time on TV, online, on the streets, and in malls. I believe they’re part of everyone’s life. Everyone sees ads at home and outside. Wherever we go, we see ads any time of the day which makes me believe they’re seriously part of our existence.

 

 

Have you ever bought something because of its advertisement?  

 

(Answer 1)  

 

Definitely and a lot of times! For some reason, I’m easily convinced by testimonial ads (an advertising method that highlights the end user’s statement extolling the virtue of a product or brand ). I dunno, I find those kinds of commercials enticing (attractive & tempting ), intriguing (fascinating; arousing one’s curiosity ), and credible. My latest purchases were heavily influenced by those types of ads that I watched and I have no regrets though.  

 

(Answer 2)  

 

Yes, I’ve done that several times, but I don’t easily get convinced by the ads that I watch. I normally check the reviews of the products before making a decision because I really want to make sure to buy something that I believe is of high quality.   

 

Do you watch advertisements from the beginning to the end?  

 

(Answer 1)  

 

Well, if the advertising medium is TV, then I do watch the ads till they finish. However, if they appear on social media platforms, I always have a choice not to watch the entire ad. As I said earlier, I make it a habit (do something habitually) to watch ads on my favorite YouTube channels because it’s my way of helping content creators.   

 

(Answer 2)

 

 

Never! I don’t want to waste my time watching those ads, though I normally watch a portion of the ad, I never want to watch the entire ad, especially if the duration is a minute or two. I can tolerate watching ads for no more than ten seconds.
