1
Before you hear the rest of the talk,
2
you have some time to look at questions 15 to 20.
3
Now listen and answer questions 15 to 20.
4
So next on the agenda is proposals for improvements to the recreation ground.
5
Councillor Thornton again.
6
Well, since we managed to extend the recreation ground,
7
we've spent some time talking to local people about how it could be made a more attractive and useful space.
8
If you have a look at the map up on the screen,
9
you can see the river up in the north and the community hall near the entrance from the road.
10
At present, cars can park between the community hall and that line of trees to the east,
11
but this is quite dangerous for pedestrians,
12
so we're suggesting a new car park on the opposite side of the community hall,
13
right next to it.
14
We also have a new location for the cricket pitch.
15
As we've now purchased additional space to the east of the recreation ground,
16
beyond the trees, we plan to move it away from its current location,
17
which is rather near the road,
18
into this new area beyond the line of trees.
19
This means there's less danger of stray balls hitting cars or pedestrians.
20
We've got plans for a children's playground,
21
which will be accessible by a footpath from the community hall and will be alongside the river.
22
We'd originally thought of having it close to the road,
23
but we think this will be a more attractive location.
24
The skateboard ramp is very popular with both younger and older children.
25
We had considered moving this up towards the river,
26
but in the end we decided to have it in the south-east corner near the road.
27
The pavilion is very well used at present by both football players and cricketers.
28
It will stay where it is now,
29
to the left of the line of trees and near to the river,
30
handy for both the football and cricket pitches.
31
And finally, we'll be getting a new notice board for local information,
32
and that will be directly on people's right as they go from the road into the recreation ground.
33
That is the end of part two.
34
You now have half a minute to check your answers to part two.
35
Thank you.
36
Thank you.

Practice Tips

To effectively use this lesson for english speaking practice, consider employing shadowing techniques. Listen closely to the video at a comfortable volume. Start by playing a short segment and repeat what you hear immediately after, imitating the speaker's intonation and rhythm. This will help improve your English pronunciation and fluency.

As the video transitions between different topics, notice the shifts in tone and pace. For the best results, use a shadowing app that allows you to slow down the audio without distorting it. Practicing with slower segments initially can facilitate easier imitation before progressing to the natural speed of the speech. This stepped approach will aid in retaining vocabulary and building confidence.

Additionally, after a few practice rounds, try summarizing key points in your own words. This exercise not only reinforces vocabulary like "recreation ground" but also helps solidify your understanding of the context of the conversation. Regular practice in this manner will significantly enhance your IELTS speaking practice and overall communication skills.

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.
