Now turn to Section 3.
114
Section 3.
115
Two overseas students called Spiros and Hiroko have just finished the first semester of their university course.
116
They are discussing with their English language teacher how they coped with the course.
117
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 25.
118
Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 25.
119
Before we start, Spiros and Hiroko, thanks for coming in today to talk about your recent study experiences,
120
and congratulations to you both in doing so well in your first semester exams.
121
Thank you.
122
I'd like to discuss with you the value of the English
123
for Academic Purposes course you did here last year before starting your university course.
124
Spiros, if I could start with you, what parts of the program have now proved to be particularly valuable to you?
125
I think that having to do a seminar presentation really helped me.
126
For example, a couple of weeks ago in our marketing subject, when it was my turn to give a presentation, I felt quite confident.
127
Of course, I was still nervous, but because I had done one before, I knew what to expect.
128
Also, I know I was well prepared, and I had practiced my timing.
129
In fact, I think that in relation to some of the other people in my group, I did quite a good job, because my overall style was quite professional.
130
What about you, Hiroko?
131
Oh, that's interesting.
132
in my group i was really surprised by the way the
133
students did their presentations they just read their notes aloud can you believe
134
that they didn't worry about their presentation style
135
or keeping eye contact with their audience and i remember
136
that these things were really stressed to us in the course here
137
so how did you approach your presentation hiroko well to speak frankly I read my notes too.
138
At the time, it was a relief to do it this way, but actually, when I had finished, I didn't feel any real sense of satisfaction.
139
I didn't feel positive about the experience at all.
140
That's a pity.
141
You know, although I was pleased with my presentation, I am not so pleased with my actual performance right now in the tutorials.
142
During the whole semester, I've not said anything in our tutorial discussions.
143
Not a word.
144
Really, Spiros?
145
Why is that?
146
Do the other students talk too much?
147
It's partly that, but it's mostly because I have had no confidence to speak out.
148
Their style of speaking is so different.
149
It's not the style we were used to during the course.
150
They use so many colloquialisms.
151
They're not very polite, and sometimes there seems to be no order in their discussion.
152
Also, they are very familiar with each other, so because they know each other's habits, they can let each other into the discussion.
153
You're right, Spiros.
154
I have experienced that too.
155
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 26 to 30.
156
Now listen and answer questions 26 to 30.
157
For most of this semester I've said absolutely nothing in tutorials,
158
but recently I've been trying to speak up more and I just jump in and I've noticed an interesting thing.
159
I've noticed that if they thought my point was interesting or new, then the next time they actually asked for my opinion,
160
and then it was much easier for me to be part of the discussion.
161
Oh, that's great, Hiroko.
162
I hope that happens for me next semester.
163
I'll have to work hard to find some interesting points.
164
What helped you to find these ideas?
165
I think that one thing that helped me with this was the reading.
166
i've had to do so much reading this semester just to help me make sense of the lectures
167
at first i couldn't understand what the lectures were talking about
168
so i had to turn to the books
169
and journals every night i read for hours using the lists of references
170
that were given and i made pages of notes at breakfast i read
171
and read my notes again this habit has helped me to follow the ideas in the lectures, and it's also given me some ideas to use in the tutorials.
172
But I did so much reading anyway.
173
I don't think there's any time left over for anything extra.
174
My reading speed is still quite slow, though I'm much better at dealing with vocabulary than I used to be.
175
What else do you think we could add to the course program to help with this reading problem.
176
Hmm, there's not really anything because it's my problem.
177
I remember we were given long articles to read.
178
We didn't like that, but now I realise
179
that reading those long articles was good preparation for the things I need to read now.
180
Also, in class, we regularly had speed reading tasks to do, and we kept a record of our reading speed,
181
so the teachers were encouraging us to work on that.
182
That's true, Spiros, but what we read could have been different.
183
Sometimes in the English class I felt frustrated
184
when I had to read articles about the environment or health or education because I wanted to concentrate on my own field,
185
but we didn't read anything about engineering.
186
So I think I wasted some time learning vocabulary I didn't need.
187
But surely the strategies you were taught for dealing with
188
that vocabulary were helpful yes
189
but psychologically speaking I would have felt much better working on
190
reading from my own field what do you think Spiros oh I agree
191
that would have helped my confidence too
192
and I would have been more motivated it was good though
193
that we could work on our own topics when we wrote the research assignments okay let's move on to writing now
194
That is the end of Section 3.
195
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
196
Now turn to section 4.
197
Section 4.
198
You will hear part of a lecture about a problem related to the behaviour of certain sea creatures.
199
First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.
200
Now listen carefully and answer questions 31 to 40.
201
Good afternoon, everyone.
202
Well, with some of you about to go out on fieldwork, it's timely that in this afternoon's session I'll be sharing some ideas about the reasons why groups of whales
203
and dolphins sometimes swim ashore from the sea right onto the beach and, most often, die in what are known as mass strandings.
204
Unfortunately, this type of event is a frequent occurrence in some of the locations that you'll be travelling to,
205
where sometimes the tide goes out suddenly, confusing the animals.
206
However, there are many other theories about the causes of mass strandings.
207
The first is that the behaviour is linked to parasites.
208
It's often found that stranded animals were infested with large numbers of parasites.
209
For instance, a type of worm is commonly found in the ears of dead whales.
210
Since marine animals rely heavily on their hearing to navigate, this type of infestation has the potential to be very harmful.
211
Another theory is related to toxins or poisons.
212
These have also been found to contribute to the death of many marine animals.
213
Many toxins, as I'm sure you're aware, originate from plants or animals.
214
The whale ingests these toxins in its normal feeding behaviour,
215
but whether these poisons directly or indirectly lead to stranding and death seems to depend upon the toxin involved. In 1988, for example,
216
14 humpback whales examined after stranding along the beaches of Cape
217
Cod were found to have been poisoned after eating tuna that contained saxitoxin, the same toxin that can be fatal in humans.
218
Alternatively, it has also been suggested that some animals strand accidentally by following their prey ashore in the confusion of the chase.
219
In 1995, David Thurston monitored pilot whales that beached after following squid ashore.
220
However, this idea does not seem to hold true for the majority of mass strandings
221
because examination of the animal's stomach contents reveal that most had not been feeding as they stranded.
222
There are also some new theories which link strandings to humans.
223
A growing concern is that loud noises in the ocean cause strandings.
224
Noises such as those caused by military exercises are of particular concern
225
and have been pinpointed as the cause of some strandings of late.
226
One of these, a mass stranding of whales in 2000 in the Bahamas, coincided closely with experiments using a new submarine detection system.
227
There were several factors that made this stranding stand out as different from previous strandings.
228
This led researchers to look for a new cause.
229
For one, All the stranded animals were healthy.
230
In addition, the animals were spread out along 38 kilometres of coast,
231
whereas it's more common for the animals to be found in a group when mass strandings occur.
232
A final theory is related to group behaviour and suggests
233
that sea mammals cannot distinguish between sick and healthy leaders and will follow sick leaders even to an inevitable death.
234
This is a particularly interesting theory, since the whales that are thought to be most social, the toothed whales, are the group that strand the most frequently.
235
The theory is also supported by evidence from a dolphin stranding in 1994.
236
Examination of the dead animals revealed that, apart from the leader, all the others had been healthy at the time of their death.
237
without one consistent theory however it is very hard for us
238
to do anything about this phenomenon except to assist animals where
239
and when we can stranding networks have been established around the world to aid in rescuing animals
240
and collecting samples from those
241
that could not be helped i recommend john connor's marine mammals assure as an excellent starting point
242
if you're interested in finding out more about these networks or establishing one yourself.
243
That is the end of Section 4.
244
You now have half a minute to check your answers.

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.
