IELTS Speaking Part 1 Colours Question and Answers 

1. What’s your favourite colour? [Why?]

Pink is my favourite colour, and I imagine that many other girls feel the same way about it. Pink is a delicate colour that connotes feminine charm, sweetness, niceness, playfulness, and cuteness. The colour pink represents a universal love of oneself and others. It is the colour that I adore the most.

2. Are there any colours you dislike (Why?)

I'm not a huge fan of oranges. It doesn't, in my opinion, go well with a lot of other colours. And it doesn't look nice on me because of the colour of my skin. Orange is therefore kind of worthless to me practically. But I also don't believe it's that appealing to the eye.

3. Do you like the same colours now as you did when you were younger? [Why/Why not?]

Up until I reached 19, white and red were my favourite colours. Strangely, it was only after I began travelling widely that I began to understand the significance of the colour blue. I watched the movie "Blue" before doing a tonne of study on the colour. In addition, my obsession with blue jeans made me even more colour-sensitive.

4. What can you learn about a person from the colours they like?

I think a person's colour preferences frequently reflect some of their personality qualities and reveal a lot about them. In my eyes, people who enjoy cool colours are frequently caring, and devoted whereas those who prefer the colour black are frequently creative and sensitive. I think colours can help us identify the various personality types that can exist within a group. 

5. Do any colours have a special meaning in your culture?

In our culture, Red usually represents violence and White represents peace. However, the colour red is now occasionally referred to as the colour of sacrifice and friendship. As far as I'm aware, green is the colour of nature and prosperity in our nation, whereas yellow is the colour of sunshine and joy. 

6. What colour would you choose to paint the walls of your room?

White is always my go-to colour when choosing wall paint since I love a minimalistic look. Also, White has been shown by scientists to amplify the feeling of space in a space. Additionally, staring at this colour can assist us to relax.
