Sample Answer by IELTS High Scorer
Do you like spending time by yourself?
Yes, I enjoy spending time by myself. In other words, I enjoy doing anything alone. We have to socialize with others not only in life but in our work time. It has been more and more difficult to have our real private time, I mean the time just for myself. Therefore, I like to do something alone to enjoy that private time which makes me think of something or just relax.
What did you do last time you were by yourself?
I read a book before I slept. Always, the bedtime completely belongs to me, and I choose to read books at that time. I remember I read a detective book last night, and the plot was pretty attractive and a little scary. I like that book and I wonder what happened then, so I still will read it tonight.
What do you usually do when you spend time with yourself?
One of my habits is baking, and usually, I do it when I’m alone. And every time I do baking, I hope no one would disturb me. Focusing on it makes me feel relaxed and peaceful. It is a kind of way to release my pressure in daily life. Also, I would like to read books which I’m interested in spending time by myself.
