You will hear people talking in eight different situations.
3
For questions 1 to 8,
4
choose the best answer A, B or C.
5
1. You hear a customer talking to a shop assistant about a coat she bought. Can I help you?
6
Yes, I bought this coat here yesterday,
7
but when I tried it on at home I found it was too tight on me,
8
so I'd like to exchange it for a larger one.
9
Hmm, I don't think we have one in stock.
10
Perhaps you'd like to try on another kind of coat, or a jacket?
11
Actually, we've got some lovely winter jackets just in.
12
No, that's not really what I'm looking for.
13
I could order the one you mentioned if you like,
14
or return your money, whichever you prefer.
15
Could you order it, please?
16
Fine. Can I help you?
17

28
I'm afraid it looks like there's quite a storm heading towards western and northern areas,
29
and that will arrive about dawn tomorrow.
30
The rest of the country will start off cloudy with a few showers,
31
but by lunchtime there will be clear skies and the bright weather will last well into the early evening,
32
apart from in the south where there might be a few foggy patches once the sun goes down.
33
At around the same time,
34
bad weather will reach eastern regions,
35
bringing high winds and heavy rain,
36
with the possibility of flooding in low-lying areas.

46
3. You hear an office worker talking about cycling to work
47
I sometimes think back to
48
when I used to drive to work in the morning looking at my watch
49
and worrying in case the traffic made me late
50
and though I still have to ride through it
51
and I still get held up by the lights I much prefer going on two wheels.
52
By the time I arrive I feel pleasantly tired,
53
almost as if I'd been for a light workout at the gym and that's a good way to start the day.
54
I hardly give any thought to my work until I actually sit down at my desk
55
because nowadays I feel much more relaxed and able to cope with whatever might come up during the day.

Four.
65
You hear a radio announcer talking about a competition for writers of short stories.
66
We're looking for good short stories to read out on next week's programme.
67
So if you think you're capable of writing an interesting tale in less than 750 words,
68
either send it in as an email attachment or post it to us
69
and you may be one of the lucky five prize winners.
70
Unlike in some competitions, as long as they are original pieces of writing,
71
you can send in as many as you like,
72
and there's no upper or lower age limit.
73
In fact, last year's first prize was won by a 17-year-old,
74
and the winner of the second prize was just 16.

84
5. You hear a conversation about reading.
85
So what sort of books do you like to read in your spare time?
86
Well, in my student days I went through a phase of reading novels that could really make me laugh out loud.
87
But although I still like entertaining stories,
88
my tastes have changed a little.
89
To what kinds of thing?
90
Action stories that take place in remote parts of the world.
91
The kinds of location my grandfather visited in his younger days,
92
but I can only dream of travelling to.
93
I particularly like those with weird characters,
94
quite unlike anyone you've ever met.

106
Six.
107
You hear two people talking about watching films on the internet.
108
Isn't it much simpler to look at some online reviews,
109
choose a movie, pay a little to download it and then settle down to watch it,
110
rather than go into town,
111
queue up for tickets and then sit in a crowded, uncomfortable cinema?
112
There's certainly a much wider choice available and getting the one you want is easy too,
113
but it's never the same as seeing it on the big screen.
114
And I wouldn't take too much notice of the comments made by other buyers.
115
They're even less reliable than the arts critics in the newspapers.

125
7. You hear a woman at an airport talking on the phone.
126
Yes, it's an awful feeling,
127
and I've been kicking myself here.
128
It's never happened to me before,
129
though I've had a few near-misses.
130
like the time I got stuck in traffic on the road to the airport
131
and only just made it in time or
132
when I got off the underground at Terminal 5 rather than 4
133
and had to race back to the station when I eventually realised my mistake.
134
On this occasion I got there on time
135
but there were just too many people waiting ahead of me
136
and when I finally reached the desk I was told the flight had closed.

147
8. You hear a man talking about his new job.
148
When I first saw the ad in the employment section of the paper,
149
it wasn't the fact I'd be earning far more than I am now that caught my attention.
150
It was the chance to achieve my full potential,
151
doing something relevant to the experience I'd gained before I took up my current post.
152
In fact, though the job description in the ad talked about good prospects of rising within the company structure,
153
that's never really been an ambition of mine.

Übungstipps

Um deine Fähigkeiten im Englischen optimal zu verbessern, empfehlen wir dir, die Shadowing-Technik anzuwenden. Diese Methode beinhaltet das wiederholte Nachsprechen von Gesprächen, die du hörst. Achte dabei besonders auf die Geschwindigkeit und den Tonfall der Sprecher. Da die Gespräche in diesem Video in einem klaren und verständlichen Tempo stattfinden, ist es eine hervorragende Gelegenheit, deine Fähigkeiten im shadowspeak zu üben. Versuche, jeden Dialog mehrmals nachzusprechen, um die Stimme und den Rhythmus der Sprache besser aufzunehmen.

Eine weitere wichtige Technik ist das aktive Zuhören. Konzentriere dich darauf, den Kontext der Gespräche zu erfassen, auch während du die Phrasen nachsprichst. Mit regelmäßigem Üben wirst du nicht nur dein Hörverständnis verbessern, sondern auch deine Fähigkeit, fließend und selbstbewusst auf Englisch zu kommunizieren. Verwende auch diese Plattformen, um deine Englische Aussprache zu verbessern und deine Sprechfertigkeiten weiter zu schärfen.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
