雅思口语练习题：Spare Time

Spare time

How do you usually spend your evening and with whom?

There are many different ways I spend my evenings, from hanging out with a few friends in a bar to asking my girlfriend out for a nice dinner, from surfing on the internet at home to enjoying the fellowship of my family before TV. Anyway, there are always things to do in evenings for me.

虽然没有必要事无巨细，但是在这里运用排比的修辞，不但可以增强语气，还可以同时向考官展示自己对英文深层次的运用。

Do you like to go out in the evenings and with whom?

Well, it really doesn’t matter to me. If I’m in the mood of going out, I’ll go out, sometimes alone, sometimes with friends. But if I’m not in the mood of going out, I’ll just stay home. Maybe I’ll go to bed early.

本题问的是晚上外出，考生在回答问题的时候还要注意理解题目。

What do people today usually like to do after work?

It really depends on individual preference. Most people go straight back home after work to enjoy family in China. But there are always exceptionals. I know a few people who are afraid of going back home after work. (Whisper) You know why? Their wives are very ill-tempered. They are afraid of them.

该题目给出的答案运用了幽默的因素，但是并不是每个考生都一定要试图给出考官一个非同寻常的答案。重要的`是把问题回答清楚。
