IELTS Speaking Part 2: IELTS Cue Card
Describe an activity that you usually do that wastes your time
– What it is
– When you usually do it
– Why do you do it
– And explain why you think it wastes your time
- Well, there are some activities that I regularly do and some of them are not as productive as others.
- Here I would like to talk about an activity that is a part of my daily routine that is surfing social media apps and websites.
- Actually, nowadays social media is becoming an inevitable part of our lives.
- I have an account on all major social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook and Snapchat.
- So, every day I do check my accounts quite often.
- Mostly, I use social media in the evenings after finishing my work.
- I also use them whenever I get a short break or some free time.
- Sometimes I also open my mobile phone after getting a notification about any update.
- I would say, I spend approximately 1-2 hours on social media daily.
- There are a couple of reasons behind using these social media apps.
- The primary reason is connecting with my loved ones as I can easily communicate with them on social media platforms.
- Another reason is to get a break from my hectic schedule because watching something exciting on the internet makes me feel relaxed.
- Although these reasons are valid, but sometimes I feel using social media is entirely an unproductive activity.
- Most of the time, I open a social media app only for checking new messages but once I open it, I couldn’t resist myself from checking more and more posts on my wall.
- So, I feel that it is a kind of addiction that should be left.
- Also, in this time I can do something productive for my health.
- So that is why I feel that if I use this time somewhere else, it would be more beneficial for me.
- To be honest, now I am trying to stop using these social media apps and I am really happy that I am getting success.
