Part 1 What is your name? My full name is Sunita Langhome Where are you from? I'm from Biratnagar Do you work or study? I work, I'm a full-time accountant for a large business. Is it easy or difficult to find jobs like that in your country? It really depends on the job market in a region. Some have an abundance of jobs like these, while others may be struggling with a lack of them. It’s important to research your local area and get advice from people who are familiar with the job market there before you start looking for such positions. It took me about three months to find the perfect job for me, and I was lucky that the market was plentiful! Do you like your job?

Cambridge IELTS 9 Speaking Test 1 Sample Answers Part 3 Discussion Topics - Shopping at markets Do people in your country enjoy going to open-air markets that sell things like food or clothes or old objects? Which type of market is more popular? Why? No not, really. I think that's mainly because of the weather. Living in a cold country we like to do most of our shopping indoors in a supermarket or shopping center normally. There are some specialized markets that exist, but even they're usually only active during the summer months or they're housed indoors in a warehouse or other large building during the winter if they're very popular.

I think internet auction sites are more popu...
