Unit 5.

Listening.
3
Exercise 3.
4
Hi Milton.
5
I didn't see you this afternoon.
6
You missed a really good talk.
7
Oh, did I?
8
That's a pity.
9
It was Mr Brand's talk about fossils, wasn't it?
10
Yeah.
11
I hadn't really expected to enjoy it, but it was fascinating.
12
I thought it would be.
13
I'd been planning to go to the talk, but then when I was in the lab this morning, I realised I hadn't done any reading for tomorrow's history seminar.
14
Well, I think he's going to repeat it sometime, but it may be next year.
15
Perhaps you could tell me a bit about it then.
16
Well, he talked about himself in the first part.
17
I saw on the notice that went round that he went to America to study and met a famous anthropologist.
18
Yeah, that's right.
19
But he said he got interested in fossils well before then when he was about six,
20
in fact, and he found the most amazing fossil on a school visit to a national park.
21
He showed it to us.
22
He still has it.
23
Though he said he wasn't looking for it at the time.
24
Most kids wouldn't recognise a fossil if they saw one.
25
I know.
26
They want to watch adventure films or play with model dinosaurs.
27
But apparently he spent his school holidays hunting for fossils in the farm pits near his home.
28
So, does he lecture on the subject now?
29
Yes, but he also runs a business organising fossil hunts for groups of adults and children.
30
Wouldn't it be great if we could do something like that?
31
He showed us a lot of pictures.
32
So, they all go out in a group to the cliffs or somewhere with little hammers, do they?
33
Yeah, apparently.
34
The kids tell everyone that's the best bit, tapping the stones to see if anything's there.
35
Do they know what they're looking for?
36
Yeah.
37
They get shown some examples of what they might find first.
38
And do they actually get to find any fossils?
39
Yes.
40
Mr Brand showed some photos of children proudly holding up their fossils for the camera at the end of the day.
41
If they take them home, I bet they become prized possessions in their rooms as well. For sure.
42
He said he never stops being amazed at how close you can be to a fossil.
43
I guess the children aren't aware of history that much.
44
No, but for them, the key thing they learn is that if they keep looking, they will find something.
45
You have to wait.
46
It's not for people who want instant success.
47
So, why don't we go on one of these hunts?
48
Well, yes, I'm quite keen.
49
The hunts are fully booked until the end of the year, unfortunately.
50
I could talk to some of the other students and see if we can form a group.
51
Oh, that's a good idea.
52
I'll give him a call.
53
Then, if we have enough people, we might be able to get him to do an extra one for us.
54
I'll look on his website when I get back to the dorm, just to get a bit more information.
55
Unit 5.
56
Listening.
57
Exercise 5.
58
So, what did he talk about in the second part? well
59
that was more theoretical but just as interesting and there were lots of visuals
60
you know how fossils are formed not exactly we all know
61
they're the remains of living organisms sort of entombed in rock
62
but i don't know how they get to be there well he basically went through the stages
63
that make that happen so did he talk about the conditions that bring about fossilization Yes, and he used a fish as an example.
64
Here, I'll show you my notes.
65
Wow, these are great diagrams, Junie.
66
Thanks.
67
OK, stage one.
68
Ah, yes, that's right.
69
A lot of fossils form underwater, don't they?
70
Yeah, like as soon as a fish dies, it sinks to the bottom of the ocean, and as long as a predator doesn't come along, it just lies there.
71
Undisturbed.
72
That's right.
73
And since the ocean bed's soft, well, much of it is, plus it's muddy as well, the fish gradually gets covered over and can't be seen anymore.
74
Hmm.
75
Apparently, for a fossil to begin to form, you also need conditions where the light is minimal and there's very little oxygen.
76
So the organic matter doesn't break down too quickly.
77
Yes.
78
And, you know, there are fault lines, even on the seabed, and the rocks can move.
79
Yeah, so once the fish gets buried, I guess that has to happen quite quickly.
80
All the sand and sediment piles up into layers
81
and the huge pressure and weight of all the layers compacts it and you move on to stage two,
82
where it gets heavier and heavier until it becomes hard rock.
83
there'd be no water left so the fish skeleton would be entombed it can stay like
84
that for millions of years can't it it can but during
85
that time the bone in the skeleton is replaced by minerals i see
86
and these minerals sort of mimic the shape of the skeleton yes
87
and that's how you get a fossil but how do we find them
88
if they're buried so far down again it's all down to the movement of the earth's plates.
89
In the last stage, many millions of years after the fossil has formed, the rock may lift and eventually be above sea level.
90
Meanwhile, the surface of the rock wears away?
91
Yes.
92
Another natural process called erosion wears away the rock until one day you can see the tip of the fossil.
93
And you break open the rock and there it is.
94
It's incredible, really.
95
unit 5 speaking exercises 2 and 3 actually there are a number of objects
96
that i could talk about in my home
97
so it's quite hard for me to decide what to choose
98
however i'm going to talk about a very special necklace
99
that i keep in my attic first i think i'll tell you where it came from Basically, it was an inheritance from my grandmother,
100
who was ninety -five years old when she died.
101
As far as I know, she'd been given it by someone, possibly an aunt, who'd bought it in a market in India.
102
It's a pity I didn't ask my grandmother.
103
I'd know its origins for certain if I'd asked her.
104
Anyway, undoubtedly it's pretty ancient now, probably an antique, although I've no idea what it's worth.
105
But, as my mother says, you can't put a price on something that has sentimental value.
106
If I were to lose it, I'd be really upset.
107
Just looking at it, I don't think you get an idea of its age.
108
You wouldn't realize how old it was unless you examined it closely.
109
I wouldn't say that it's strikingly beautiful, or something you'd choose to put on to go out for the evening.
110
It's just a long line of blue beads that are quite chipped and faded now.
111
They look pretty worthless, not as eye -catching as the gold necklace that I got for my twenty -first birthday.
112
Actually, I don't use the beads for anything because, as I said earlier, I don't wear them.
113
They're not at all fashionable.
114
In fact, I don't really like beads, but having said that, I'll always keep them.
115
If I were to throw the beads out, I wouldn't be able to forgive myself.
116
I'll pass them on to my children, so that they become an equally important family treasure for them.
117
It's funny to think, but if it hadn't been for my granny's aunt, I wouldn't have inherited that necklace.
118
Unit 5.
119
Speaking.
120
Exercise 7.
121
Why do you think some people like to keep old things, while others don't have any interest in doing this?
122
Actually, I'm sure there are all sorts of reasons, but perhaps the main one is space.
123
You know, if I were to live in a small apartment, I wouldn't be able to store much.
124
On the whole, people who are hoarders tend to have large attics or spare rooms or cupboards where they can put things.
125
I think it must be a question of personality.
126
And by that, I mean, well, some people are really sentimental, so they don't like to throw away things like cards or presents.
127
even though they don't want them anymore i guess you know
128
were they to throw them away they'd feel a sense of loss whereas other people maybe don't care
129
that much they're just happy to focus on the present unit
130
five pronunciation exercise two well old things are full of memories and i think that's the main reason why people keep them.
131
Perhaps the most obvious example is photographs.
132
I mean, although people might get rid of the ones that they don't like themselves in, they often keep others because they remind them of a special person or event.

Sprachziele dieses Clips
Dieser Clip hilft dir, deinen Englisch sprechen üben zu verbessern, insbesondere in Bezug auf flüssige Konversationen über alltägliche Themen. Das Ziel ist, natürliche Gesprächsabläufe zu verstehen und zu replizieren, was für IELTS-Bands 6.5 bis 7.5 entscheidend ist. Du lernst, wie man informell über Veranstaltungen, Interessen und Pläne spricht – ein Schlüssel für erfolgreiche mündliche Prüfungen.
Phrasen-Sammlung
- That's a pity. – Ein nützlicher Ausdruck, um Bedauern zu zeigen.
- I hadn't really expected to... – Perfekt, um Überraschung zu äußern.
- Wouldn't it be great if... – Ideal, um Wünsche oder Vorschläge zu machen.
- For sure. – Ein informeller Weg, um Zustimmung zu signalisieren.
- I'm quite keen. – Zeigt, dass du an etwas interessiert bist.
Diese Phrasen lassen sich problemlos in deine eigenen Gespräche einbauen und tragen zu einer natürlichen Sprachweise bei.
Schwächen beheben: Rhythmus und Intonation
Der Clip eignet sich hervorragend für Englisch Shadowing – eine bewährte Methode, um Rhythmus und Intonation zu trainieren. Achte darauf, wie die Sprecher Pausen machen und Betonungen setzen, z. B. in Sätzen wie "He said he never stops being amazed". Mit Englisch lernen mit Videos kannst du die Gesprächsfluidez verbessern, indem du die Sätze direkt nachsprichst (Shadowspeak). Nutze die Gelegenheit, um die natürliche Geschwindigkeit und die Betonung von Schlüsselwörtern zu üben – ein essenzieller Schritt, um deinen Sprachausdruck zu verfeinern. Auf einer guten shadowing site findest du weitere Übungen, aber dieser Clip ist eine ausgezeichnete Basis, um loszulegen.
Grammatik in diesem Video
Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:
| Struktur | Im Video |
|---|---|
| Bedingungssätze if + Satz, will/would + Verb – eine Bedingung und ihre Folge | if they keep looking, they will find · If I were to lose it, I'd be |
| Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tut | being amazed · are formed · can't be seen |
| Relativsätze who / which + Satz – eine Zusatzinformation über eine Person oder Sache | people who want · people who are |
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.
