Clarice is C-L-A-R-I-C-E and Willard W-I-L-L-A-R-D.
4
Uh-huh.
5
And have you got a contact number?
6
Yes.
7
I'll give you my mobile,
8
which is 0192 873 4566.
9
That's great.
10
Thanks.
11
And can I ask how you found us?
12
Of course.
13
A family member used you last year and recommended you.
14
So I had a look at your website and,
15
well, that's why I'm calling now.
16
Okay.
17
So which property are you interested in?
18
The apartment on Statham Street,
19
the one on the third floor.
20
Uh-huh.
21
Let me
22
see um ah i'm afraid
23
that flats no longer available no no it went this morning
24
it's in a really popular part of town we do have a house on the same street
25
if you're interested it's nine hundred
26
and fifty pounds a month uh no i think that's much too expensive i think an apartment is all we can Oh,
27
so it's not just for you?
28
No, me and a friend.
29
We're both starting work in the town next month.
30
Oh, right, so it's two of you.
31
So, let's see.
32
Do you have any preferences in terms of location?
33
Both our jobs are in the town centre,
34
so it would be good to be within walking distance of that,
35
or perhaps a short bus journey away.
36
Neither of us have a car,
37
so we'd be relying on public transport.
38
Mm-hmm.
39
And what's your budget?
40
I'm sorry?
41
How much can you pay a month?
42
Let me see.
43
Uh...
44
700 pounds a month is probably our limit.
45
Each?
46
no
47
that would be for the both of us we wouldn't be able to pay more than 350 pounds each oh
48
and that would have to include bills not phone bills obviously
49
but things like electricity gas
50
and water mm-hmm okay well we do have a place in the Banton district
51
which is about 10 minutes by bus from town it's a two-bedroom apartment
52
and it's less than your budget at six hundred pounds a month the bills would be extra unfortunately
53
but that should still work out at less than seven hundred pounds although remember
54
that electricity and gas prices are going up all the time
55
so I can't guarantee that do you have an address I do the apartment number is three
56
and it's at fifty seven Thorny Lee's Road hang on let me just make a note of
57
that fifty seven Thorny Lee's Road Thorny is T H O O-R-N-E-Y
58
and Lees is L-E-Y-S and the district is called Bampton.
59
Do you have an email address?
60
Yes.
61
In that case, I can send you the details and then you can think about it.
62
And if you're interested, I could arrange for a visit so you can see the place for yourself.
63
How does that sound?

Oh, that would be really helpful.
65
It's Clarice underscore Willard at NT...

Why practice speaking with this video?

Practicing speaking with the IELTS Bands for To Five Listening Track 4 video is an effective way to bolster your IELTS speaking practice. The conversation simulates a real-world scenario—calling about a property—which is not only relevant but also essential for learners aiming to boost their communication skills. By shadowing the dialogue, you can develop your pronunciation, intonation, and fluency.

Engaging in such practical dialogues allows English learners to feel more comfortable in various situations, enhancing both their speaking confidence and comprehension. Shadowing, or shadowspeak, helps you internalize natural speech patterns, making it easier to apply these skills in similar contexts in your real life.

Grammar & Expressions in Context

The video features several useful structures and expressions that can enhance your conversational skills:

  • Requesting Information: The phrase "Can I ask how you found us?" demonstrates a polite way to solicit information, which is critical in any conversational exchange.
  • Indicating Preferences: "Do you have any preferences in terms of location?" reflects a natural way to discuss choices or criteria, commonly used when conversing about interests.
  • Discussing Budgets: The expression "I'm afraid that flat's no longer available" gives a softening approach to bad news, essential for customer service interactions.
  • Clarifying Details: Questions like "How much can you pay a month?" are vital for gathering important aspects of the conversation, ensuring clarity in dialogues.
  • Describing Situations: Phrases such as "within walking distance" or "relying on public transport" are practical for making clear your living or commuting conditions.

Incorporating these structures in your practice can lead to more fluent and effective communication when faced with similar contexts.

Common Pronunciation Traps

As you engage with the dialogue in the video, pay special attention to certain tricky words and phrases that are often mispronounced:

  • Apartment: Make sure to stress the second syllable: ap-ART-ment.
  • Property: The stress should be on the first syllable: PROP-erty.
  • Available: A common mispronunciation is omitting the second 'a'; ensure you pronounce it as uh-VAI-luh-buhl.
  • Preference: The emphasis is on the first syllable: PREF-erence.

Practicing these words through shadow speech will enable you to sound more natural in your conversations and reduce misunderstandings.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
