Shadowing Practice: Short stay accommodation: Đề thi IELTS LISTENING (actual test) - Learn English Speaking with Video

Creando lección...
1
Part 1 You will hear a telephone conversation between a client who wants to rent short-term accommodation and a rental agent.
2
First you have some time to look at questions 1 to 5.
3
Now we shall begin.
4
You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time.
5
Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.
6
Good morning.
7
Ace Accommodation.
8
How can I help you?
9
Good morning.
10
I'd like to organise some short-stay accommodation on the Gold Coast, please.
11
Certainly.
12
Who am I speaking to?
13
Miss McKinley.
14
Sylvia McKinley.
15
Could you spell your family name for me, please?
16
It's M-A-C-K-I-N-L-A-Y.
17
Thank you.
18
And your first name is Sylvia?
19
Yes.
20
Is that with an I or a Y?
21
A Y, the old-fashioned way.
22
That's S-Y-L-V-I-A.
23
Thank you, Miss McKinley.
24
Now, just for our records,
25
can you tell me what country you live in? Of course.
26
It's England, actually.
27
I thought so.
28
Now, when are you coming?
29
Well, at the moment we're planning on arriving on July 26th.
30
Oh, the 25th.
31
That's the last day of the public holiday,
32
and it might be difficult to find something available on that date.
33
No, we're coming on the 26th of July.
34
Oh, well, that's fine then.
35
We'll have lots of good places vacant by then,
36
although you wouldn't be able to move in until late afternoon,
37
because our cleaning crew will need time to get everything ready for you.
38
That suits us.
39
Your flight won't get in until early evening anyway.
40
How many of you will there be?
41
Just my sister and myself.
42
And how long do you intend to stay?
43
Oh, only a couple of weeks.
44
We'd like to stay longer,
45
but we'll have to get back to work.
46
So you're not coming on business then?
47
No, it's just a holiday.
48
Why?
49
What difference does that make?
50
Oh, you'd be surprised.
51
Business people have different needs.
52
You know, wireless internet, even fax machines and photocopiers.
53
No, we won't need any of that stuff.
54
We'll be coming to relax and get away from all that kind of thing.
55
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
56
you have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.
57
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
58
Good.
59
Now, what exactly are you looking for?
60
A house, a duplex or an apartment?
61
What's a duplex?
62
Oh, that's what you might call a townhouse or a unit.
63
You know, two houses semi-detached on the same property.
64
Oh, I see.
65
I think an apartment will suit us just fine.
66
And how many bedrooms?
67
Two?
68
One or two, it depends on the size.
69
My sister and I don't mind sharing if it's a decent-sized bedroom with two beds.
70
Well, that makes it easier.
71
And car parking.
72
Will you require a lock-up garage?
73
They're a little harder to find with an apartment.
74
We'll have a higher car,
75
and as far as I know,
76
there are no regulations concerning car parking.
77
I think as long as it's not parked on the street and it's secure,
78
there shouldn't be any problems.
79
OK.
80
Now, I'm assuming you want something by the beach?
81
Yes, that's the idea.
82
We want to enjoy the surf, sand and sunshine.
83
OK.
84
But before we settle on an area and discuss your price range,
85
I'll need to know about other necessities.
86
What do you mean?
87
Well, for example, do you want to be close to a shopping mall or the casino or the fun parks,
88
or do you want to be in a complex with or near a swimming pool?
89
No, none of that really matters to us.
90
But we'd like to have reasonable access to the motorway so that we can drive up to Brisbane to visit friends there.
91
Well, there are quite a few lovely small towns to choose from.
92
There's Main Beach, which is north of Surfer's Paradise,
93
or Mermaid Waters, which is a bit further south,
94
or Palm Beach, which is quite a bit further south.
95
Mermaid Waters sounds delightful.
96
Is it close to the motorway?
97
Well, not really.
98
The M1 is actually closest to Palm Beach,
99
and prices are likely to be more reasonable there too.
100
That's settled then.
101
Palm Beach it is.
102
Now, if you'll just give me your email address,
103
I can send you information about the town and lots of photos.
104
Well, my email is smac13 at hotmail.com.
105
And one final thing.
106
How much are you looking to spend per week on accommodation?
107
Do you want something at the luxury end of the market?
108
You know, newly redecorated, great views, all the mod cons.
109
Not necessarily.
110
Could we get something clean,
111
comfortable and reasonable for $1,200 a week?
112
Could you stretch that to 1,500 a week?
113
I've got a property in mind that you'll absolutely love,
114
but you'd have to go to 1,500.
115
1,200 wouldn't cover it.
116
All right then, but that's our top limit.
117
Good.
118
I'll get on to this straight away,
119
and there should be something in your inbox shortly.
120
That is the end of part one.
121
You now have one minute to check your answers to part one.
122
Thank you.
123
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.
