1
Now we shall begin.
2
You should answer the questions as you listen, because you will not hear the recording a second time.
3
Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 6.
4
Beechon Festival Office Next activity, on the 20th, the time's changed.
5
Is that the tour?
6
Yes.
7
Now, it does say on the tickets that it's a 3 .40 start, but that's an error.
8
There wasn't time to update them, unfortunately, so it should say 4 .30 instead.
9
The correct time is on the website, though.
10
Oh, right, because one of my friends wants to go on that,
11
to see Beecham with an expert and find out about the town and its history.
12
Does she need to get a ticket in advance?
13
No, just turn up at the station where the guide will be waiting.
14
They'll start from there, and I think the plan is to stop for a break in the park.
15
And there's no charge for the tour.
16
And the tour will finish with a visit to the 16th century mill where they used to make flour.
17
It's recently been restored.
18
Fine.
19
And then on the 21st, there's an all -day event for children.
20
Oh, that could be good for my visitors.
21
They're bringing theirs, you see.
22
Right.
23
Well, the plan was to have a painting competition for the kids, but it's now going to be cooking instead,
24
and there'll be prizes for all the different age groups.
25
Oh, great.
26
And it's in Beechon Community Centre.
27
Oh, yes, I know where that is.
28
They don't need to bring any ingredients, but they'll need to have a plate to put whatever they've made on,
29
so they can display it and then take it home.
30
Sounds good.
31
And are they going ahead with the fireworks in the evening, or is that cancelled?
32
There was an article in the paper after last year's display which suggested it might not be happening again.
33
That's right.
34
No, that's still on.
35
It's getting more popular each year, and having it in the town square was starting to be a bit difficult because of the numbers,
36
which is why it's next to the river this time.
37
It'll be easy for large numbers of people to get to.
38
Yes, of course.
39
I'm sure there's lots to look forward to.
40
Thank you.
41
Now listen and answer questions 7 to 10.
42
OK, now I just want to check how it's going to impact on me as a local resident.
43
I mean, some people last year thought it was too noisy at night.
44
Yes, I know.
45
And that's why this year evening events won't go on beyond 11 .15.
46
I know previously some activities lasted until 11 .45, and the new time applies now to all the events, every evening.
47
Okay.
48
And another change, perhaps you know about this already, is that because of high visitor numbers, parking in the town centre isn't going to be allowed.
49
It'll be outside town.
50
Oh, yes, to keep the streets clear, I suppose, for all the visitors.
51
I did know, actually, and it's not really going to be a problem for me.
52
Right.
53
I mean, I could just walk into town from my home.
54
Okay.
55
Well, anyway, if you want to check any more details about the festival,
56
once you're back online, you can look at www .events .com.
57
And you'll be able to comment on what activities you enjoyed, and what would really help the organisers would be
58
if people could use the website to give feedback about what they enjoyed and that kind of thing.
59
This will help them plan for next year.
60
That's probably a good idea.
61
And with pricing, I know local residents...
62
That is the end of section one.
63
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
64
Thank you.
65
Thank you.
66
Thank you.
67
Thank you.
68
Thank you.
69
Thank you.
70
Thank you.

Cómo practicar con este vídeo

  3. Grábate y compara con el original, prestando atención a palabras como visitor, resident, carefully.

¿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.
