Topic: Getting up early | Bài mẫu IELTS Speaking Part 1,2,3
I do. I am an early bird so I often wake up around 5 to 6 A.M every morning. Getting up early allows me to run errands before leaving for work.
My bedroom has a balcony that looks out over the garden so the first thing I do when I wake up is to take a moment and breathe in the fresh air. After my personal hygiene routine, I go to the supermarket to buy some food and do some cooking for breakfast. Having a cup of joe before going to work has also become my morning ritual.
Well, I actually get up early every morning, including Saturdays and Sundays. If I don’t have much work to do, I will go for a run at the park then come back home to have some snacks while binge-watching my favorite TV shows.
You should say:
This cue card reminds me of the time I got up at dawn to prepare for a job interview.
I received a call from the Human Resource Department who asked me to join an interview at 8 A.M and give a full 15-minute speech about a topic. I was thrilled to bits accepting the offer since I’ve always wanted to secure myself a slot in that company. I decided to get up at 5 A.M in order to be well-prepared for the appointment.
As per plan, I first finished my morning skincare routine and when I got out of the bathroom, my mom had already made me a hearty breakfast. I then had a cup of joe, which could never go wrong, as caffeine kept me energetic all day long and extended my attention span. Thereafter, I started to skim through all the notes I took the previous night, you know, just to ensure that I wouldn’t miss any points during my presentation. I made a rehearsal of the speech in front of the mirror to see if I was making good use of my body language. Finally, I got suited up, did some makeup and wore my favorite perfume as I believe appearance is the best indication of one’s personality, reflecting a number of important character traits.
I arrived at the place 15 minutes in advance, which I believed was appropriate. While giving the presentation, I tried to express my verbal and non-verbal language in a way that I’m most comfortable with, in hope that my speech would make them sit up and take notice. Everything turned out just fine, and I got in!
I can say that getting up early that morning did wonders to my performance at the time, since I had more time to settle in, resulting in a stress-free experience. It is also a good habit to take up, as you can finish more tasks in a day.

About three months ago, when it was still autumn, my roommate and I decided to wake up at dawn to take a trip around Hanoi since we both had a day off.
My friend is a morning person, so waking up early was a piece of cake for her, while I’m a heavy sleeper, so I found it was a hard sell. My alarm rang at three a.m., and I could only get out of bed after sleeping in for 15 minutes.
After nearly one hour of putting on some makeup and getting dressed, we hit the road at four a.m. to the first destination – a flower market. We got on our motorbike, so we could feel the freshness, especially the chilly cold, which was very gentle in the autumn. After reaching the market, we went around to see and feel the scent of various flowers. We also bought a bunch of daisies and took some photo shoots.
After that, I recommended having hot congee for breakfast, and being on a full stomach made us feel better. Although we felt a bit tired, we found it was too early to go home, so we headed to a café to have a morning coffee. Interestingly, the coffee shop has some small bookshelves; and reading a book while having a coffee helped me to let my hair down. But at noon, my friend and I both fell asleep because we didn’t get enough sleep the night before, so we made a choice to go home and take a nap to recharge our energy.
Anyway, this was an exciting experience because waking up at the crack of dawn gave me a unique chance to see a different Ha Noi – it was silent during the wee hours, and there was no hustle and bustle as it was during peak hours.
Well, I guess people differ in their routines. Nowadays people have to work around the clock and some actually have to stay up late at night or even pull all-nighters to meet deadlines. This results in the feeling of lethargy the next morning, explaining why they have to struggle to wake up. Others, however, are full of beans when the sun is out and perform way better in the morning. All in all, I guess it is just a matter of habits.
From my point of view, a lot of people today, especially the young, are drawn towards exciting activities that happen at night, like parties and concerts. When all of the daytime work is done, this is the time when they can hang out and enjoy themselves, you know, because we only live once and we wouldn’t want to miss every single moment of joy and happiness. Others are simply night owls. Some tell me that they often feel sluggish during the day and can only get down to work in the middle of the night. This explains why these people possess a different time zone from most of us.
As we all know, punctuality displays a person’s respect for people and their time, so under no circumstances should anyone show up late. To formal ceremonies such as a wedding or a funeral, which require a large amount of organization and planning, it is even more important for everybody to arrive earlier than expected. The late-comers usually give an impression that they do not value the others’ time or consider their time more important than that of others. People who are going on a trip may also have to arrive at the airport or train station prior to their departure time. This allows them to have more time for the check-in process, creating a stress-free travel experience.
