For each question, choose the correct answer.

Look at Question 1.
10
1. Which job has the girl decided to do?
11
Have you thought what job you would like to do?
12
Mmm, I think that as I'm a very sociable person, I could become a shop assistant.
13
You'd be good at that.
14
Maybe, but my mum says that kind of work can be quite tiring, as I will have to deal with difficult customers sometimes.
15
Why don't you become a teacher?
16
You're very good at explaining things to others.
17
Good idea, but I like better to work as a nurse.
18
I enjoy looking after people who are sick, so that's what I'll do.
19
OK, but I still think that being a teacher would be an excellent job for you.
20
Now, listen again.

2. What will the boy order?
31
How about ordering a pizza from the place down the road?
32
You can order a small pizza if you like, but I want only a salad.
33
Why?
34
Are you on a diet?
35
No, but I don't like the pizza from this place.
36
I only prefer their burgers.
37
So, do you want to order burgers and chips for both of us?
38
Now that I think, the last time I ate a burger from that place, it wasn't well cooked.
39
So just a salad.
40
Okay then, I'll take my first choice.

Which activity does the girl not do anymore?
55
I want to start a new hobby.
56
I was thinking about table tennis.
57
I've seen you playing and I think it's quite interesting.
58
Although I've given up, as I don't have enough time to play anymore, I still think that it's worth trying it.
59
I joined the school's volleyball team three weeks ago and I spent my whole time in practising for next Sunday's match.
60
It's a shame.
61
You were pretty good.
62
Do you still have guitar lessons or have you stopped them as well?
63
No, I didn't need to as guitar lessons are once a week and last only an hour.

Hi Maria.
74
I'm calling you to ask you to go shopping tomorrow morning.
75
I need you to help me buy a new coat, as next month I'll be going on a school trip to Iceland.
76
I had also thought to buy a new scarf and gloves, but my mum said to take my brother's ones.
77
Although I like his scarf and I'll take it with me, his gloves aren't my size.
78
Mum said that she will buy me a new pair that she had seen online.
79
So, please can we meet tomorrow at the big department store after school?
80
You always help me buy clothes that suit me fine.

5. Which is the boy's sister?
91
Who is your sister in this photo?
92
Is she the one with long, dark hair?
93
No. My sister is short hair and she also wears glasses.
94
Fortunately, in this picture, she doesn't wear this terrible hat that she always wears during the summer months.
95
I tell her that it doesn't suit her and that it's very old -fashioned, but she keeps saying that it protects her head from sun.
96
Anyway, I can see her now and she's very beautiful.

6. What sort of film will they see?
105
How about going to see that new adventure movie tonight?
106
It hasn't got good reviews.
107
I read that the acting isn't that great.
108
There's also the new movie with Matt Dillon at the same cinema.
109
That might be good.
110
You know, I'm not keen on romantic films.
111
You can go and see that with Lorna.
112
Any good detective movies on?
113
There's one at the Odeon, but I think we have seen it.
114
You know, the one with Detective Purcell.

Oh, that.

7. Where does the girl want to go on holiday?
133
Where do you go on holiday this summer?
134
I don't know, but I'd prefer to go to an island and not to the mountains, as we usually do with my parents.
135
My mum says that because we live near the sea, she needs a change on our holiday, so we always go to the mountains and seep in tents,
136
or to big cities and visit museums all the time.
137
I don't like either of them.
138
Now, listen again.

145
That is the end of part one.

Objetivos de habla en este video
Este clip se enfoca en un hito clave para el nivel B1: entender y participar en conversaciones cotidianas donde se toman decisiones, como elegir un trabajo o pedir comida. Estas situaciones requieren no solo comprender el vocabulario específico, sino también seguir el flujo de ideas y expresar preferencias claramente. Es ideal para practicar la fluidez al interactuar en contextos reales, un paso fundamental para mejorar tu inglés con videos.
Banco de frases reutilizables
- "Have you thought what job you would like to do?" (¿Has pensado en qué trabajo te gustaría hacer?): Útil para iniciar charlas sobre metas profesionales.
- "I enjoy looking after people who are sick" (Me gusta cuidar a personas enfermas): Expresa preferencias laborales de forma concreta.
- "How about ordering a pizza?" (¿Qué tal si pedimos una pizza?): Perfecta para sugerir opciones en comidas o planes.
- "Now that I think, the last time..." (Ahora que lo pienso, la última vez...): Ayuda a corregir o modificar una idea previamente expresada.
Mejora tus puntos débiles
El diálogo presenta una característica clave del inglés oral: la intonación en las preguntas y respuestas. Observa cómo las frases como "Why don't you become a teacher?" (¿Por qué no te conviertes en maestra?) suben el tono al final, indicando una sugerencia, mientras que respuestas como "so that's what I'll do" (así que eso es lo que haré) bajan el tono para marcar decisión. Para practicar esto, usa el método de shadowspeak: reproduce el video, deténlo y repite cada frase imitando el tono y el ritmo. Un sitio de shadowing te ayudará a enfocarte en estos detalles, ya que la imitación directa mejora la pronunciación y la naturalidad de tu habla. Recuerda: la clave está en escuchar dos veces (como sugiere el video) y repetir hasta que el flujo se sienta cómodo.
Gramática en este vídeo
Las estructuras que más usa el hablante, con las palabras exactas del vídeo:
| Estructura | En el vídeo |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + participio pasado — una acción pasada que sigue importando ahora | I've seen · I've given · have seen |
| Oraciones de relativo who / which + oración — información extra sobre una persona o cosa | people who are |
| Verbo + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — verbos seguidos de la forma en -ing | enjoy looking · keeps saying |
| Past continuous was/were + -ing — una acción en curso en un momento del pasado | was thinking |
¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
