PART 1

 

BEING HAPPY

 

ANSWERS

 

 

 

 

Is there anything that makes you feel happy lately?  

 

(Answer 1)  

Well, there’s nothing really special that makes me so happy recently, but every day I’m happy because of my family. They are my inspiration and my strength that keeps me going in life. Without them, I don’t know what my life would be like.   

 

(Answer 2)  

 

Yes, and that’s my personal journey to achieving financial freedom. I’m actually very close to my financial goal and it does inspire me to work even harder. Actually, I was drowning in debt (owing a lot of money) because of a student loan and my mortgage (debt instrument, secured by the collateral of specified real estate property ). Thank God, I finally finished paying my student loan and I’m so proud of myself for doing that. These days, I’m more motivated to attain my financial goal.    

 

What do you do to stay happy?  

 

(Answer 1)  

 

I eat healthy foods and I exercise thrice a week. I’ve been doing that since last year after I read an article on how to live life happily. That article was so inspiring and convincing, I was never a healthy-conscious person before until I came across (met by chance) that life-changing article. It’s really true that if you eat healthily, you’ll surely be happy and that’s what I’m feeling every day. 

 

(Answer 2)  

 

For me, it’s really a challenge to be happy all the time. I mean, there are times that I feel down in the dumps (feeling very sad), and whenever I feel that way, I don’t suppress (prevent the development of a particular feeling) that feeling, I don’t force myself to be happy because that’s just impossible. Instead, I give myself permission to feel all kinds of emotions, as that gives me peace of mind, and if I have peace of mind, I feel happy.  

  Can you stay happy all the time?  

 

(Answer 1)  

 

No, and in my opinion, that’s impossible. We are all humans capable of feeling or experiencing different kinds of emotions. Life isn’t perfect, there will always be trials that make us feel anxious, exhausted, and sad, among others and that’s pretty normal. So, I don’t really believe in the idea of staying happy all the time.   

 

(Answer 2)

 

As much as I want to but that’s just unattainable (not able to be achieved). We wouldn’t know the taste of happiness if we didn’t go through (undergo; experience) some hardships or sad experiences in life. I think staying happy all the time is just an idea, for a realist (a person who accepts a situation as it is and is prepared to deal with it accordingly) like me, that’s undoable (impracticable ).       

 

Is it important to be happy?  

(Answer 1)  

 

Definitely! Research shows that those people who are optimistic and happy in life tend to be healthier than those who are not. When a person is healthy and happy, he is unlikely to get heart disease, stroke, or cancer, among others. And I actually believe in that finding, as I myself experienced several diseases when I wasn’t happy with my previous work. The stress that I got from my previous work made me unhappy and that compromised (harmed) my health.   

 

(Answer 2)  

 

Yes, it is! Life is short to dwell on things (to keep talking or thinking about something, especially something bad) that make you sad, there’s more to life than feeling terrible about yourself or hating the world. I think to be happy is a choice, if you choose to be happy you’ll have more opportunities in life, however, if you give value to things that don’t serve you well, then you’ll end up having a miserable life.

Author, Band 9.0 Achiever (First Attempt - IELTS Speaking)

Hi students! My name is Julius Malaza. I am the author of this IELTS website. I am a non-native English speaker who achieved the highest band score (band 9.0) on the IELTS speaking test on my first attempt.

I graduated with a degree in Mass Communication and Education at Cebu Normal University, one of the prestigious state schools in the Philippines.

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.

Be one of the many students who achieved their target band scores by utilizing this website as one of the learning resources!
