1
We've been talking about hobbies and I'd like to discuss with you one or two more general questions related to this.
2
Let's consider first of all current and future hobbies.
3
What do you think are the most popular types of hobby in Germany?
4
For male Germans it's probably football.
5
And for females it might be shopping, I don't It could be shopping.
6
But many people are actually doing sports, so they will go jogging in their spare time.
7
Why do you think these hobbies are so popular?
8
Because I think you need balance in life.
9
The working life is quite hard, and nowadays in Germany with the economic situation, etc., everybody needs an anchor point or a balance to their struggle during their working hours.
10
So I guess just to have relaxation and to calm down and as a stress relief, I think sports is a good way to do so.
11
And I think that's why many Germans are doing it.
12
It's probably worldwide the case.
13
Let's pick up on that point of leisure time.
14
You mentioned that the work leisure balance in Germany is perhaps a little bit out of balance.
15
Can you tell me more about that?
16
Yeah, I mean the regular working hours would be eight to nine hours a day, but nowadays competition is quite big because of the unemployment.
17
So everybody's really putting a lot of overtime in their work and most of the time probably don't get paid for it.
18
And leisure time is increasingly of course getting less and less
19
and so people are definitely looking forward to the holidays or their weekends to enjoy family life.
20
But I think family life isn't that what it was before
21
because everybody is to focus on their careers and to keep their jobs
22
and have a good income and survive basically in the system.
23
Do you think this will continue in the future?
24
Well, probably the next 10 years till the economy again is picking up
25
and our social welfare system is getting better again because it was quite good years ago.
26
But the last 10 years I would say it really declined a bit.
27
I see.
28
Let's move back a moment on hobbies and think about the social benefits of hobbies.
29
What do you think of the social benefits of having a hobby?
30
Well, it's depending on what your hobby is.
31
If you would, for example, do a hobby where you don't meet anybody, if you're hiking or climbing alone, there's not a big social
32
factor in that I would say but
33
if you do it in a community like for example soccer
34
or rugby or whatever then you in a way share time with people
35
and have the opportunity to get to know each other better
36
and closer and exchange ideas and and opinions so I think for
37
that reason a hobby is very very important because usually you find
38
that people who are not at your work working environment it's they are not part of your family
39
so they come from different backgrounds and so I think you get a quite good insight into other people's opinions.
40
So you get to know them in a different way.
41
Yeah, in a different way because everybody's also relaxed.
42
In your working environment, for example, I mean everybody's quite formal and tries to do the proper thing,
43
obviously, but if you are doing sports together, it's more casual, everything, and I think you would open up yourself more to the other person.
44
So you think it influences the way we behave at work subsequently?
45
Well, it could be, but I don't think that it necessarily has to.
46
It could be if you would have a hobby.
47
I mean, it's just hypothetically now.
48
But it could be if you have a hobby
49
and have good experience with other people and are quite relaxed with other people
50
that it would have a good influence in your work, in the relationships you hold at your working place.
51
But that's quite hypothetically now from my point of view.
52
Do you think there are any dangers in spending too much time on hobbies?
53
If you would neglect your family, yes.
54
If the hobby is more important than your family life and your working life maybe, then yes, there could be a danger
55
that you lose track with what is going on in your relationship with your partner and children, etc. Thank you very much.
56
That's the end of the speaking test.

¿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.
