Which topics do you think are most difficult to talk about?

Do you find it easy to talk about computers? How about clothes? Or pets?

Everyone has different interests so we may not find all topics equally easy to talk about. That's one reason why IELTS candidates need to expose themselves to a wide range of material by a variety of different people when reading and listening. A few times per week, when listening and reading in English, you should deliberately choose topics outside your usual range of interests and speakers/writers with whom you might not agree or even find appealing!

Then again, some topics - such as "love" - might be considered difficult by most people. Here are some interesting definitions of love to reflect on:
