work in a museum or art gallery one day and i hope that this course will help me find a job in that sector do you think you will remain friends with the people from your course in the future yes uh i probably will it's a very small course and we spend a lot of time together doing group assignments and studying okay now let's talk about your favorite place what is the place that you most like to visit um oh ah let me see now well i really like going to the local library why do you like it though um i suppose because it's quiet and it has a nice selection of newspapers and magazines and the range of books is really good too and there's a cafe next door how often do you go there probably about once a week is it easy to travel there yes it is i can catch a bus from my place to the shopping center where it's located is it a popular place for other people to visit yes it is a lot of children go there and it's very popular with students and elderly people now let's talk about your daily routine tell me about a typical week day for you night daily routine well i'm a student so my classes start at eight and that means so during the week i usually get up about 6 30 um have a quick shower get dressed catch a bus to university i am always running late so i don't have time for proper breakfast i just grab a coffee i have classes all day and get home at about 5 p.m and after dinner i usually try to do some study do you work or study better in the morning or the afternoon the afternoon definitely i'm not really a morning person it takes a while for me to wake up properly what would you like to change about your daily routine change i suppose i should try to make more time for a proper breakfast in the morning because by mid morning i get really hungry is there a balance between your work time and your leisure time in your daily routine do you mean like is it equal yeah i suppose though i've been studying a lot recently because of the ielts exam but i have a week's holiday coming up and i'm really looking forward to that um i'd like to do some more exercise because i think it's important to take some time out from study every day thank you that brings us to the end of part one now i'm going to give you a topic and i'd like you to talk about it for one to two minutes before you talk you'll have one minute to think about what you're going to say you can make some notes if you wish do you understand here is some paper and a pencil for making notes and here is your topic i'd like you to talk about a meal you have had that you really enjoyed all right remember you have one to two minutes for this so don't worry if i stop you i'll tell you when the time is up can you start speaking now please sure i'm going to talk about a lovely meal that i had while i was on holiday in greece i'm vegetarian so it is sometimes hard for me to find something to eat when i travel this meal was very simple but it was delicious it was a greek salad made of lettuces cucumber tomatoes olives and cheese and it just had a very simple sauce i mean dressing poured over it made from olive oil and lemon juice my next point is who prepared the meal well i don't really know but i can tell you about the restaurant i remember it was very small and we sat outside in a lovely courtyard there were plants and flowers all around and a nice cool breeze blowing anyway i decided that the safest option for me to order was a salad i wasn't really expecting very much but when i took my first mouthful i was in heaven like everything just tasted so fresh and full of flavor the tomatoes were so sweet and juicy the cucumbers crisp and the cheese creamy when the waiter came to take our plates he said that the secret was in the ingredients all the vegetables had been grown in the family's garden so that's why i will always remember that meal thank you have you told other people about this meal yes yes i have thank you can i have the task card and the paper and pencil back please thank you so we've been talking about a meal that you enjoyed and i'd like to discuss with you one or two more general questions related to this first of all let's consider children and food what's the best age for a child to learn to cook um oh i don't know let me see maybe about eight or nine why because i think it might be dangerous if the child is very young you know using a knife or cooking things on a stove you know that sort of thing whose responsibility is it in your view to teach children to eat healthily oh the parents definitely it all starts with them parents must teach their children to eat well they shouldn't give them junk food all the time otherwise children can get addicted to it do you think children will eat more healthily in the future well sadly i don't think they will fast food is so common nowadays and people are so busy so it's an easy option for families i think there will be more health problems in our society in the future caused by poor diets moving on now to talk about eating habits does food play an important role in your culture yes i think it does when we have family get-togethers there's always a lot of food and we have a big meal when we celebrate religious holidays i guess that's the same in most countries food usually is connected to big cultural or religious festivals would you say people in your country have a healthy diet these days or did people eat more healthily in the past that's a difficult question i think both diets could be healthy you see traditionally in germany people ate quite plain food like potatoes meat and bread but they ate vegetables too so in my view i think the diet was quite healthy and now our society is so multicultural especially in the cities that we have many other cuisines to choose from such as indian or turkish so we can have a varied healthy diet so yes i think both the traditional and the modern german diet could be healthy just the people need to make the right choice do you think it's important for a family to sit together to eat a meal in the evening yes ideally um if it's possible i my family lives in another town so i can't have a meal with them very often thank you that is the end of the speaking test thank you [Music] [Music] you
