IELTS Speaking Test

Index of Part 2 & Part 3 Topics and Questions  

Page 5

This page shows the Part 2 Topics that were used from May 2011 to Aug 2012. These are retired topics.

 

Go to Page 1 of this index to see the Part 2/3 topics that were introduced into the test in late 2005, in 2006 and in early 2007. 

Go to Page 2 to see the topics that were introduced into the test in late 2007 and in 2008.

Go to Page 3 to see the topics that were introduced in 2009.

Go to Page 4 to see the topics that were introduced in late 2009, 2010 and in early 2011.

Go to Page 6 to see the topics that were introduced in 2012 & 2013

Go to Page 7 to see the topics that were introduced from Jan. 2014 to Sep. 2014

Go to Page 8 to see the topics that were introduced in January, May & September, 2015

Go to Page 9 to see the topics that were introduced in January & May 2016

 

The topics on Pages 1 to 4 are not being used at the moment but sometimes an old topic does return to the test. When that happens, I add it to the list of current topics and give it a name followed by (2) or (3) if it is the second or third time that this topic has been introduced into the test.

On this page, topics that have no label or have the label Still in Use are definitely still being used in the test (in Mainland China). I am very confident or quite confident that those topics labeled as (Probably no longer used) are no longer being used in the test (in Mainland China). You can consider any topics labeled as Possibly no longer used as having a big chance of no longer being used but there is a small possibility that they are still in use.
