Test 3.
2
This is the IELTS Listening Test.
3
You will hear a number of different recordings and you will have to answer questions on what you hear.
4
There will be time for you to read the instructions and questions and you will have a chance to check your work.
5
All the recordings will be played once only.
6
The test is in four parts.
7
At the end of the test, you will be given ten minutes to transfer your answers to an answer sheet.
8
Now turn to part one.
9
Part one.
10
You will hear a man talking to the coordinator of a photography club.
11
First you have some time to look at questions one to four.
12
Now listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 4.
13
Hello, Wayside Camera Club.
14
Breeder speaking.
15
Oh, hello.
16
My name's Dan and I'd like to join your club.
17
That's great, Dan.
18
We have an application form.
19
Would you like to complete it over the phone?
20
Then you can ask any questions you might have.
21
Oh, yes, thanks.
22
OK.
23
So, what's your family name?
24
It's Green.
25
Dan Green.
26
So, can I take your email address?
27
Yes, it's dan1068 at market .com.
28
Thanks.
29
And what about your home address?
30
Well, I'm about ten miles away from your club in Peacetown.
31
I live in a house there.
32
OK.
33
So what's the house number and street?
34
It's 52 Marrowfield Street.
35
Is that M -A -R -R -O -W -F -I -E -L -D?
36
That's right.
37
And that's Peacetown, you said?
38
Uh -huh.
39
So how did you hear about our club?
40
Did you look on the internet?
41
I usually do that, but this time.. well, I was talking to a relative the other day and he suggested it.
42
Oh, is he a member too?
43
He belongs to another club, but he'd heard good things about yours.
44
OK.
45
So what do you hope to get from joining?
46
Well, one thing that really interests me is the competitions that you have.
47
I enjoy entering those.
48
Right.
49
Anything else?
50
Well, I also like to socialise with other photographers.
51
That's great.
52
So what type of membership would you like?
53
What are the options?
54
It's £30 a year for full membership, or £20 a year if you're an associate.
55
I think I'll go for the full membership then.
56
That's a good idea, because you can't vote in meetings with an associate membership.
57
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 5 -10.
58
Now listen and answer questions 5 to 10.
59
If I could just find out a bit more about you.
60
OK.
61
So, you said you wanted to compete.
62
Have you ever won any photography competitions?
63
Not yet, but I have entered three in the past.
64
Oh, that's interesting.
65
So why don't you tell me something about those?
66
Let's start with the first one.
67
Well, the theme was entitled Domestic Life.
68
I see.
69
So it had to be something related to the home?
70
Yeah.
71
I chose to take a photo of a family sitting round the dinner table having a meal
72
and um i didn't win but i did get some feedback oh what did the judges say
73
that it was too busy as a picture.
74
Aha!
75
So it was the composition of the picture that they criticised?
76
That's right.
77
And once they'd told me that, I could see my mistake.
78
So what was the theme of the second competition?
79
Well, my university was on the coast and that area gets a lot of beautiful sunsets.
80
So that was the theme.
81
Oh, sunsets.
82
That's a great theme.
83
Yes, the instructions were to capture the clouds as well.
84
It couldn't just be blue sky and a setting sun.
85
Sure, because they give you all those amazing pinks and purples.
86
Yeah, and I thought I'd done that well, but the feedback was that I should have waited a bit longer to get the shot.
87
I see.
88
So the timing wasn't right.
89
Yes, I took it too soon, basically.
90
And then the third competition I entered was called animal magic.
91
Well, that's a difficult subject.
92
I know.
93
I had to take hundreds of shots.
94
I'm sure, because animals move all the time.
95
That's what we had to show.
96
There had to be some movement in the scene.
97
I got a great shot of a fox in the end, but I took it at night and,
98
well, I suspected that it was a bit dark, which is what I was told.
99
Well, Dan, you seem to be really keen and we'd be delighted to have you in our club.
100
I'm sure we can help with all those areas that you've outlined.
101
Thanks, that's great.
102
That is the end of part one.
103
You now have one minute to check your answers to part one.
104
Thank you.
105
Thank you.

¿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.
