Hello, hello, dear listener, and welcome into IELTS Speaking Part 2.
An interesting topic for you today.
Describe a bicycle, motorcycle, or car trip that you would like to go on.
You should say who you'd like to go with, where you'd like to go, when you'd like to go and explain why you'd like to go on such a trip.
Rory, give us your story.
I quite fancy taking a trip up north in the car, actually.
I've not really seen that much of that particular part of my country.
And so I think it would be pretty interesting to head up there and find out exactly what it's like.
When it comes to who I go with, frankly, I take off there just about any one of my friends.
Though, given how rugged I think it can get up there, maybe one of the more outdoorsy ones would be the best.
Like one of the ones who likes camping, or maybe someone who doesn't mind slamming it in a cheaper hotel, or even in the car.
Come to think of it.
In terms of exactly where I'd want to go.
I think it would be interesting to see what it's like around this town called Wick.
It's one of the most northerly towns in the country.
And I imagine people there have a very different lifestyle to how those of us live in the larger cities and how we go about things.
It's probably a bit more relaxed and in touch with nature, since there's less development and more well, just more land, I suppose, and space to move and relax.
That being said, I doubt it would be all smooth sailing as the climate is a bit more volatile.
Well, just the place being more exposed and whatnot.
So, with regards to when I'd go, bearing all that in mind, with the climate, I think the best bet would be the summertime.
We'd be more likely to get at least a little bit of sun and calmer weather, and just less likely to get rained on.
I suppose that's the tourist season as well, so things are likely to be open if a little crowded.
As for why I'd like to go by car, I just think it's the most efficient route, to be honest with you.
I think I looked up how to get there once and it looked like it would take ages to get there on the train or the bus.
And it's next to impossible to get there by bike.
So Carr is pretty much my only hope.
That said, if I don't get the chance to go there, I doubt I'll be too caught up about it.
It's just a flight of fancy.
Close your eyes.
Exhale.
Feel your body relax.
And let go of whatever you're carrying today.
Well, I'm letting go of the worry that I wouldn't get my new contacts in time for this class.

Thank you Rory, for your story.
So, dear listener, you should describe a trip a bicycle trip.
So you go somewhere by bicycle yeah, like traveling to another country by bicycle, or maybe traveling in your own country, in the countryside, by bicycle motorcycle by, you know, by bike, hmm right.
Or by car.
And it's about the future, So not the past.
You'd like to go on this trip, right?
So, you use future.
Or you use different structures, like maybe I will, I want to do something.
I think it would be interesting to do, do, do, do, do, right?
So, we are talking about the future, right?
And usually you say I'd like, I want, maybe one day I will, right?
Future structures.
A trip.
So, I'd like to go on a trip, right?
Or I'm going to tell you about a car trip that I'd like to take.
Rory, we usually take a trip, right?
Yeah, or go on a trip.
Go on a trip up north, right?
In the north.
Or go on a trip to Rome.
Or just, you know, visit Rome.
Go on a car trip to.
Or I'd like to travel by bicycle to Germany, for example.
You can start it off with I quite fancy taking a trip up north in the car.
Take a trip somewhere in the car.
Or you can say I'd like to go to blah blah blah by car.
Fancy here means I enjoy.
So I would like to do it.
Fancy doing something.
Делайся на.
But here, Rory, you can also say, I would fancy.
Like, I'd fancy going somewhere.
Yeah.
I'd fancy taking a trip.
Yeah.
I'd fancy.
I would fancy.
I would like.
Where do you fancy going?
Tibet.
China.
And Africa.
Where in Africa?
That's a big place.
Ooh.
Somewhere where I can see zebras and lions and stuff.
Yes.
First of all, you should choose.
Would you like to go by bicycle, by bike, motorcycle or by car?
I think the easiest option would be to stick to a car trip.
Going somewhere by car.
And you can say, I've never been to Rome.
I've never seen Rome.
So I'd like to travel to Rome by car.
Again, any place, dear listener.
But you should be able to describe this place.
And Rory talked about the north of his country, Scotland.
And he says, I've not really seen much of the north.
So, I think it would be pretty interesting to head up there.
To go there or to head up there.
Nice synonym.
Yeah, I'd like to head up north.
So, to the north of my country.
And I'd like to find out what it's like in Rome.
And of course, to find out is a good phrasal verb.
Yeah, it is.
Or head up also is a phrasal verb.
But we're talking about a trip that you can take by car.
So if you have an ocean or if you want to go to an island, well can you go there by car, by bicycle, you know.
When you change the topic, you use verb, the following phrase when it comes to who i'd like to go with, when it comes to speaking about who i'd like to go there with.
So, when it comes to who i'd go with, i'd go with my yeah, with my family.
And rory says i'd go there with anyone of my friends and rory.
You've used another phrase of up take off.
Yes, you take off in a car.
Well, and i don't mean like in a plane, i mean like you go somewhere and if you're going north you're going upwards, so you take off up there.
If you're going south, you take off down there.
Yeah, that's interesting.
So if it gets rugged, what does it mean?
Oh rocket, like.
Usually it describes the terrain or an area and that just means that it's not very developed, it's perhaps not very safe, it's very open, there's not much shelter.
And you can say that I detect a friend of mine who enjoys camping, so who enjoys sleeping in a tent and who doesn't mind getting dirty, who doesn't mind staying in a cheap hotel or who doesn't mind sleeping in the car, for example.
And then you can say like, okay, I'm gonna take my brother, my sister, and then explain why.
Why would you take them?
Because they are happy, friendly, they can help me out in any situation.
Or they have a lot of money, so they are ready to pay for me.
Yay.

In terms of where exactly I'd want to go again, you see, I would want to go the future.
So we're changing the topic in terms of where exactly I'd want to go.
I think it would be interesting to see again future structures.
I think it would be interesting to see blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And here you can mention some names, like Roy told us about some week, some towns, right.
You can mention some museums to see the museum of blah blah blah right, or the statue of some parks i don't know what you want to see and when we talk about where places are.
Work is in the north, so it's the most northerly town.
However, it might be in the south, so it's a southerly town, or in the east or the west.
It's a town to the west, a town to the east.
You could say westerly or easterly, I suppose.
With regards to when I'd go.
Again, we are changing the topic.
With regards to.
Dear listener, use it only like this.
With regards to something.
So, with regards to when I'd go, I would go.
I think the best bet would be the summertime.
Again, would be, right?
Will be, would be, and here i think the best bet would be.
But here in this context it means like the best time would be the summer time or the winter time, and then rory uses a future structure be more likely to, so we would be more likely to get a lot of the sun.
Right, so probably we will get, we would be more likely to get, probably we will get.
Right, likely to is a good structure.
You can use it in essays, in speaking part three, in speaking part two.
So, like a nice one, please write it down so we'd be more likely to get the sun and to get calmer weather.
And you can say, like we'd be less likely to get rained on.
So you can say yeah, like probably we won't see rain Or, if you want a benign answer, we'd be less likely to get rained on.
So, to get rain on your head.
Yeah, like a passive structure.
That's the tourist season.
Or maybe that's not the tourist season.
You may want to go there outside the tourist season, in the off season, off season yeah, like i'd like to go there off season, or it will be the tourist season.
I think you have the high season and the low season as well for tourist numbers.
High season right here exactly, high season, low season, off season not where most people go there.
Also, you can less crowded or more crowded.
So how many people will be there?
A lot or a few.
I'd like to go by car because it's the most efficient route.
Route like path.
It's the most efficient way to go there.
The most efficient path.
I looked up how to get there.
So when you research how to get there, you can say i looked up how to get there and everybody says it's better to go there by car, not by train.
So i looked it up.
I found out that the best route is to go there by car.
It would take ages.
On the train again it would take in the future it would take a lot of time on the train or by bus Or by bicycle.
Right?
Or on foot.
Right?
And then we can finish off with an if sentence.
A conditional.
A real conditional.
The first conditional here.
If I don't get the chance to go there.
So let's imagine that I won't go on this trip.
If I don't get the chance to go there.
So if it doesn't happen.
I'll be fine.
I'll go somewhere else.
Yep.
So if I don't get the chance to do this, I'll blah, blah, blah, right?
What does it mean?
It's just a flight of fancy.
Oh, I'm just fantasizing about it.
I'm not investing a great deal of time in it.
Sorry.
Oh, it just means I'm just fantasizing about it.
I'm not investing a great deal of time and thought into it.
I'm not taking it seriously.
Yeah, so it's just a flight of fancy, so I won't be disappointed if I don't get the chance to do it.
Right, dear listener?
Thank you very much for listening.
Hopefully, you choose your trip wisely.
And we'll get back to you in our new episode, Speaking Part 3.
All right?
Bye!

So Carr is pretty much my only hope.
That said, if I don't get the chance to go there, I doubt I'll be too caught up about it.
It's just a flight of fancy.
