13 Common Part 1 Topics 'Neighbors' topic 1. How well do you know your next-door neighbours? I know my neighbours quite well. They're really nice people, and I always
stop to talk whenever I see them. I think it's important to get on well
with the people who live next door.
2. How often do you see them? I see my neighbours at least a few times a week. We usually see each
other when we're leaving for work in the morning or coming home in
the evening.
3. What problems do people sometimes have with their neighbours? I think the most common problem is probably noise. It's difficult to live
next to people who have a dog that barks at night, or who play loud
music or have too many parties.
‘Houses and apartments’ Topics 1. Do you live in a house or an apartment? I live in a semi-detached house with three bedrooms in a suburb of
Manchester. I've lived there for just over a year.
