Hello everyone!
¡Hola a todos!
2
Welcome to our super podcast.
Bienvenidos a nuestro súper podcast.
3
I'm Maria.
Soy María.
4
And my name is Rory.
Y mi nombre es Rory.
5
And we are the hosts of the IELTS Speaking for Success podcast.
Y somos los presentadores del podcast IELTS Speaking for Success.
6
A podcast that aims to help you improve your speaking skills as well as your listening skills along the way.
Un podcast que pretende ayudarte a mejorar tanto tus habilidades para hablar como para escuchar.
7
Right.
Bien.
8
The reason we started this podcast is to give you a
La razón por la que comenzamos este podcast es para darte una
9
look at how a native English speaker speaker would answer some of the IELTS speaking test questions.
Observa cómo un hablante nativo de inglés respondería a algunas de las preguntas del examen oral de IELTS.
10
I'll be asking some of these questions and Rory will be answering them.
Yo haré algunas de estas preguntas y Rory las responderá.
11
We really hope that you take away as much as possible from every episode.
Esperamos sinceramente que saquen el máximo provecho de cada episodio.
12
This episode is about robots.
Este episodio trata sobre robots.
13
So Rory, you've chosen to talk about robots because in speaking part one they actually can ask you questions about robots.
Entonces, Rory, has elegido hablar sobre robots porque en la primera parte de la prueba oral pueden hacerte preguntas sobre robots.
14
My first question is what do you think of robots?
Mi primera pregunta es: ¿qué opinas de los robots?
15
I think robots are wonderful.
Creo que los robots son maravillosos.
16
They seem to be great labor-saving devices.
Parecen ser dispositivos que ahorran mucho trabajo.
17
You can, well now they are at the very least, you can bring them into your home
Puedes, bueno, al menos ahora puedes traerlos a tu casa.
18
and they can do all kinds of tasks for you
y pueden realizar todo tipo de tareas por ti.
19
that you never had before you would have to do just by yourself.
que nunca antes habías tenido que hacer tú solo.
20
So it's great for saving time for saving yourself as well.
Así que es genial para ahorrar tiempo y también para salvarte a ti mismo.
21
So I think the more we have of robots in the home, the better.
Por eso creo que cuantos más robots tengamos en casa, mejor.
22
So you're positive about robots?
¿Así que tienes una opinión positiva sobre los robots?
23
Very.
Muy.
24
Wow, okay.
Vaya, vale.
25
Did you watch any cartoons related to robots in your childhood?
¿Viste algún dibujo animado relacionado con robots durante tu infancia?
26
I think so.
Creo que sí.
27
I don't remember anything specifically about robots, but something that was connected to it was a program called Button Moon,
No recuerdo nada específico sobre robots, pero algo que estaba relacionado era un programa llamado Button Moon.
28
which was, again, not a cartoon, but it was a stop motion kind of animation.
que, repito, no era una caricatura, sino una especie de animación stop motion.
29
And they had a robot on that show.
Y en ese programa había un robot.
30
So it's kind of similar to it.
Así que es algo parecido.
31
It's probably not a very good one, though.
Probablemente no sea muy bueno, sin embargo.
32
I can remember it creeped me out a lot when I was a child.
Recuerdo que me daba mucho miedo cuando era niño.
33
Hmm, okay.
Mmm, de acuerdo.
34
Do you like the idea of robots helping you at home or driving your car?
¿Te gusta la idea de que los robots te ayuden en casa o conduzcan tu coche?
35
Oh, yes, both.
Oh, sí, ambas.
36
Like I said, I think they're great for saving time and saving your labor so you can focus on other things.
Como ya he dicho, creo que son geniales para ahorrar tiempo y esfuerzo, para que puedas centrarte en otras cosas.
37
I just wish we had more of them and they were better developed.
Ojalá tuviéramos más y estuvieran mejor desarrollados.
38
This is for the home of course, but when it comes to driving my car, I'm not so sure just right now if I want them to do that.
Esto es para la casa, por supuesto, pero cuando se trata de conducir mi coche, ahora mismo no estoy tan seguro de si quiero que hagan eso.
39
I know they're testing this, but I would like to see them
Sé que están probando esto, pero me gustaría verlos.
40
tested a little bit more before I trusted my life in the hands of a robot.
Hice algunas pruebas más antes de confiar mi vida en manos de un robot.
41
Rory, would you like to have a robot? Would I?
Rory, ¿te gustaría tener un robot? ¿A mí sí?
42
Yes, absolutely.
Sí, absolutamente.
43
Like I say, as many as possible.
Como digo, tantos como sea posible.
44
Wow, so if you had like 10 robots at home, you'd be very happy.
Vaya, si tuvieras unos 10 robots en casa, serías muy feliz.
45
Yes, as long as they were doing different jobs.
Sí, siempre y cuando desempeñaran trabajos diferentes.
46
If I paid for 10 robots to do the same job, then that would be a waste of money.
Si pagara para que 10 robots hicieran el mismo trabajo, sería un desperdicio de dinero.
47
Isn't it a bit scary to have like 10 robots at home?
48
If you're as lazy as I am, I find it quite reassuring.
49
Super.
50
Rory, thank you very much for your answers.
51
So, dear listeners, let's have a look at some of the vocabulary and grammar Rory has used.
52
that gives him a good score, possibly band 8, band 9 in IELTS.
53
So Rory, for example, you've said labour saving device.
54
Yeah, it's like a compound, compound adjective, I suppose, really, that you can use to describe things that mean that you don't have to work.
55
So something else will work instead of you.
56
Something can be labour saving.
57
More common than labour saving is time saving, so something that stops you from spending time on something that you don't want to.
58
Right.
59
Also, you've used a phrasal verb like creep me out.
60
Creep me out.
61
Could you make a sentence with this?
62
Absolutely.
63
Now being in a car driven by a robot would creep me out.
64
So, for example, with this phrasal verb in particular means that something would make me very nervous, very uncomfortable.
65
Yes, it's a good one, like band 9 phrasal verb.
66
Also about grammar, you've used some of the passive structures, like what's connected, right?
67
Also, you've used a nice one, I wish we had.
68
Yes, absolutely.
69
So, to talk about things that, well, hopefully will happen in the future or that I would like to happen in the future.
70
Definitely when it comes to robots, I would like to see much more development with them.
71
Yeah, so we can say like, oh I wish I had a robot at home.
72
Yes, absolutely.
73
So we can use the second conditional, if everyone had a robot at home, they'd be super happy.
74
Yes, absolutely.
75
Or if I had ten robots at home, I'd save a lot of time.
76
Absolutely.
77
Yeah, and Rory wants to have ten robots, exactly ten robots at home.
78
Dear listeners, could you think of your answers to these questions?
79
So would you like to have a robot?
80
Did you watch any cartoons about robots?
81
Because this is well a common topic obviously in IELTS speaking.
82
Rory, thank you very much for your answers.
83
Now dear listeners, you can listen to Rory's answers again and notice all the advanced structures and vocabulary.
84
What do you think of robots?
85
I think robots are wonderful.
86
They seem to be great labor-saving devices.
87
You can, well, now they are at the very least.
88
You can bring them into your home
89
and they can do all kinds of tasks for you
90
that you never had before you would have to do just by yourself.
91
So it's great for saving time, for saving yourself as well.
92
So I think the more we have of robots in the home, the better.
93
Did you watch any cartoons related to robots in your childhood?
94
I think so.
95
I don't remember anything specifically about robots, but something that was connected to it was a program called Button Moon,
96
which was, again, not a cartoon, but it was a stop motion kind of animation.
97
And they had a robot on that show.
98
So it's kind of similar to it.
99
It's probably not a very good one, though.
100
I can remember it creeped me out a lot when I was a child.
101
Do you like the idea of robots helping you at home or driving your car?
102
Oh yes, both.
103
Like I said, I think they're great for saving time and saving your labor so you can focus on other things.
104
I just wish we had more of them and they were better developed.
105
This is for the home, of course, but when it comes to driving my car, I'm not so sure just right now if I want them to do that.
106
I know they're testing this, but I would like to see them tested a little bit
107
more before I trusted my life in the hands of a robot.
108
So, thank you all for listening.
109
Thank you very much for your attention, and we'll see you soon.
110
Bye-bye.
111
Bye.

¿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.
