4
Transcription by CastingWords hear the recording a second time listen carefully
5
and answer questions one to six our plane tickets arrived this
6
morning it reminded me how much there is to do before we go let's write everything down shall we
7
so we don't forget anything yes
8
and last time we went away we almost forgot to collect our currency from the bank
9
so let's start with that good thinking and wasn't there an appointment you said you'd got to cancel?
10
Yes, the hairdresser.
11
Thanks for reminding me.
12
Can you write that down too?
13
The shop will be closed now, but I'll do it first thing on Monday.
14
Okay.
15
Then starting on Tuesday, we've got to take the tablets we got from the pharmacy.
16
We really mustn't forget to do that.
17
We're not protected against malaria till we've been taking them for at least seven days.
18
No, so that's really important.
19
And what about shopping?
20
There's still a few things we've got to buy the next time we're in town.
21
We need some more sunblock, don't we?
22
We've only got that factor 10 stuff.
23
It won't be strong enough.
24
I've already bought that, but what we do still need to get is sunglasses.
25
The ones I've got aren't good enough, and I don't think yours are either.
26
Okay, I've noted that down, and I think I'm going to get another bag too, just a small one.
27
We always seem to come back with more things than we take.
28
Should we get an extra lock for our suitcase as well
29
just in case the one we've got breaks they don't seem
30
to last long yes they are a bit flimsy okay right oh yes
31
and we need an adapter for our electrical things your hair dryer
32
and my shaver the plugs on them are bound to be
33
the wrong type we could get one at the airport they
34
always have them there well i'd rather get it beforehand
35
so i'm writing it down and then i think that's it isn't it i think
36
so as far as shopping's concerned
37
but we also need to order a taxi to take us to the airport we should do
38
that well in advance my sister left it too late
39
and she had to take the train with
40
that huge suitcase of hers i know she really struggled with
41
it before you hear the rest of the conversation you have some time to look at questions 7 to 10.
42
Now listen and answer questions 7 to 10.
43
Now let's see, your mother said she'd come in regularly while we're away, so what do we want her to do?
44
I'll write some instructions and we can give them to her tomorrow.
45
Good idea.
46
Well, the cat's the main thing.
47
Okay, feed the cat.
48
We ought to leave her the vet's details as well, just in case there's a problem.
49
Yes.
50
Have you got them handy?
51
Hang on.
52
I'm just looking.
53
Yes.
54
His name's Colin Jeffrey.
55
Is that spelt with a G?
56
Actually, it's J -E -F -F -E -R -E -Y.
57
Quite an unusual spelling, isn't it?
58
Hmm.
59
And his number?
60
077 -594 -128.
61
It's a mobile.
62
OK.
63
And you should write down where it is.
64
It's 4th Street, not sure what number, but it's next to the bus stop, isn't it?
65
That's not a very good landmark, but it's on the other side of the road to the church, so I'll tell her that.
66
Let's hope she won't need a vet anyway.
67
Yes.
68
Right, apart from that, there are the plants to water.
69
Ask her to make sure they don't dry out.
70
Oh, yes.
71
And I've already mentioned a problem with the boiler, and your mum said she'd come round to meet the heating engineer and let him in.
72
Yes.
73
It's a lot for her to do, but we really need to get the problem sorted out.
74
And the earliest date I could get an appointment was April the 30th.
75
Isn't it the day after we go?
76
Yes, we leave on the 29th, and she'll have to hang around till the job's finished.
77
Oh, well, she won't mind, I'm sure.
78
She likes helping people out.
79
Yes, she does.
80
Okay.
81
That's it then, I think.
82
Unless you can think of anything else.
83
Not at the moment.
84
Leave the list there, and I'll add to it.
85
That is the end of Section 1.
86
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
87
Thank you.
88
Before we move to the second section, if you want to practice IELTS speaking with teacher for free

90
now turns to part 2 part 2 you will hear a
91
speaker talking about saving energy in the home first you have some time to look at questions 11 to 12
92
Now listen, and answer questions 11 to 12.
93
many thanks for inviting me along to talk about saving energy
94
in the home this is a key issue for many people who now find themselves on tight budgets
95
so today i'd like to spend a few minutes going through
96
some simple tips to help keep those energy bills to a
97
minimum i'll start with some easy cheap ideas before talking about
98
more major solutions later i think we're all aware of the importance of insulating our homes
99
and although I'd advise you to get it done I appreciate
100
it can sometimes be inconvenient to have building work carried out
101
and though they're growing in popularity having solar panels installed on
102
the roof isn't a cheap enough option for many of us to consider seriously.
103
So what other steps can we take?
104
Well most people will make a point of turning the heating down when temperatures outside rise,
105
but they ignore other equally useful ways of saving energy when they're making dinner or doing their weekly laundry.
106
Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 13 to 20.
107
Now listen, and answer questions 13 to 20.
108
If you're living in a relatively new apartment or house, you're probably blessed with a cosy, draft -free living space.
109
But for those of us in older properties, the chances are there are gaps all over the place where cold air is getting in.
110
Walk around your home and place the back of your hand around window frames.
111
Can you feel cold air coming in from outside?
112
Get down on your knees at the doors.
113
Is there a draft at floor level?
114
Fix these drafts with some cheap draft excluders and savings in heating bills will begin straight away.
115
And are you using the latest energy -saving light bulbs?
116
i'm not recommending you go around your entire property throwing out older ones
117
and replacing them all immediately but next time a bulb goes make sure you buy an energy efficient alternative
118
and what about heating
119
if you have radiators in every room do you need them all switched on throughout the day
120
if they're on timers set them efficiently.
121
Then there's a laptop or your TV.
122
Do you leave them switched on overnight or on standby?
123
Don't waste money.
124
Turn them off.
125
And that goes for lights as well.
126
You'd be surprised how many people leave them on when they go out.
127
There are also guaranteed savings to be made in the kitchen.
128
I'm always telling my husband not to overfill the kettle when he makes a cup of tea.
129
Why boil more water than you actually need?
130
When you consider how many times that kettle gets used every day, you'll appreciate just how much electricity can be saved by boiling what you need and no more.
131
And the next time you're cooking pasta or potatoes, keep a lid on the pot.
132
The water will boil much more quickly than if you leave it off.
133
And if you've bought yourself a pressure cooker or steamer and it's sitting in the cupboard never being used, get it out.
134
They're much more efficient than pots and pans.
135
Now, the refrigerator and freezer.
136
If the fridge is next to the cooker, it's having to work harder to stay cold.
137
But as I'm giving cheap, easy solutions here, a kitchen redesign might be out of the question.
138
Still, there are other energy -saving steps you can take.
139
Keep an eye on the temperature control.
140
We often forget to turn it down in the colder winter months
141
when a high setting is unnecessary also remember to defrost the freezer frequently
142
and try not to overfill it as this isn't the most efficient way of using it
143
the washing machine is another potential money saver a lot of people wash at 40 degrees celsius
144
but it's often okay to drop the temperature down to 30 degrees celsius with similar results
145
and remember to either wash full loads or select the half load program.
146
Again, a surprising number of people forget to do this.
147
And is it really necessary to dry your clothes in a tumble dryer?
148
If you have a garden or a yard, hang them outside.
149
Or if you're drying them inside, get yourself a cheap clothes rail rather than hanging things over radiators, which robs you a valuable heat.
150
Now, let's turn to some of the help our local council is offering to householders to save energy.
151
That is the end of part two.
152
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
153
Now turns to part three.
154
Part three.
155
You are going to hear a conversation on rivers.
156
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 25.
157
Transcription by CastingWords the tape
158
and answer the questions 21 to 25 please tell me about the current state of the amazon
159
we have increased deforestation increased human population relating to deforestation
160
and a role of fire in the amazon on a scale that's never been seen in history
161
at the same time you can see progress in trying to counter that negative trend
162
how do you see this we see this in the creation of national parks
163
and indigenous areas and efforts to fund sustainable development activities for locals.
164
We see both good and the bad, and it's going to be a race to finish.
165
I understand that you started the minimum critical size of ecosystems project.
166
Could you tell me about it?
167
A number of years ago, it became apparent that those practising conservationists didn't have the scientific information available to properly design a conservation area.
168
They didn't know how big it had to be, right?
169
People were learning that as forests fragment, the fragments begin to shed species after they become isolated, so they end up becoming poor examples of what they had been.
170
This relates to the size of the fragment.
171
Do people still study this?
172
Yes, there is a rich subfield of conservation biology that looks at the efforts of fragmentation.
173
One of the consequences is a general policy response to set up protected areas that are fairly large,
174
something on the order of 1 ,000 square kilometres.
175
Now look at questions 26 to 30.
176
As the talk continues, answer questions 26 to 30.
177
Can you talk a little bit more about the forest fragmentation?
178
As habitats are destroyed, they are accompanied by habitat fragmentation.
179
So when 50 % of a forest is lost, the remaining 50 % being is not one large block,
180
but smaller pieces, which makes the conservation problem even worse than saying that 50 % has been lost.
181
And this affects not just forest, but species diversity, correct?
182
In terms of species loss, we can't give you precise numbers about how many species are lost because of these fragmented landscapes,
183
but we're beginning to get close to where we can make that estimation.
184
And so one of the policy responses to all of this, beyond just trying to create large protected areas, is to try and reconnect the fragments.
185
You've been active in many projects studying the Amazon region over the years.
186
Can you tell us about that process of understanding the Amazon?
187
When people first started looking at conservation priorities, there was not much information about the geography of plant and animal species.
188
One of the first clues was an analysis done in 1969.
189
This looked at bird species and found geographic clusters of species which occurred nowhere else.
190
And those are priority areas for conservation.
191
Was this when people began prioritising refuges?
192
Yes, it was the first time that someone looked basin -wide at priorities, giving priority to so -called refugee in areas.
193
Was this when the new trend to use geographic information systems, or a GIS, started?
194
That was in 1990 after we worked out a whole set of biological
195
and conservational priorities and produced a big map using GIS.
196
What are some of the things that GIS does?
197
Well, there are several advantages of using a geographic information system.
198
First, you can continually update the system so that it's now a constantly changing picture.
199
You can actually watch changes.
200
Then you can include large amounts of data, including information about the vectors of development.
201
Roads, railroads, pipelines, hydroelectric projects, etc. And finally, because it is accessible on the internet,
202
it makes this information available to anyone who's interested.
203
This is the end of Section 3.
204
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
205
Now turns to part 4.
206
Part 4 You're going to hear a talk on wild rice.
207
First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.
208
Now listen to the tape and answer the questions 31 to 40.
209
Good morning.
210
Today we'd like to talk about wild rice.
211
Contrary to what many people believe, wild rice is not rice at all, but a grass.
212
much of it sold in the world today is not even wild but rather cultivated varieties that do not occur naturally
213
Wild rice is really an annual aquatic seed found mostly in the upper freshwater lakes of Canada,
214
Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota in North America.
215
Indians gathered wild rice before any explorers set foot on the North American continent.
216
Early explorers were greatly impressed with the strength and hardness of the woodland Indians,
217
and attributed their vitality to their ample servings of wild rice.
218
Wild rice can grow in water as shallow as three or four feet along marshes and muddy waters.
219
A tall plant, it grows to a height of eight to ten feet, with a long flower cluster.
220
that reminds one of a narrow broom.
221
The grains in their husks on the tall stalk look somewhat like oats.
222
Truly wild rice is a challenging crop to grow,
223
even today, it's very susceptible to failure due to weather conditions.
224
If a heavy windstorm comes along just before harvesting, the seeds can be blown into the water, ruining an entire crop.
225
Harvesting at just the right time becomes a matter of beating the birds to it,
226
since wild rice is considered a delicacy by many birds living in the area.
227
Other challenges include insects, disease, poor drainage and high waters.
228
If the grains are too green, they are difficult to thresh or beat out of their husks.
229
If left on the plant too long, even a few days too long, they fall off the plant into the water.
230
Airboats have brought about recent improvements in commercial harvesting of the wild rice, while newer techniques for parching,
231
winnowing and hulling have been a help in saving time and labour.
232
Still, it takes about 3 pounds of grass seed to yield 1 pound of wild rice.
233
Buyers should be aware of two types of wild rice, gathered and commercial.
234
Foraged, or hand -harvested, wild rice is gradually being pushed out of the market by hybrid commercial varieties.
235
Hand -harvested wild rice makes up less than 20 % of the market today.
236
Heirloom varieties of this foraged grain still exist.
237
In fact, it is the only heirloom grain sold commercially.
238
However, package labels can be deceiving.
239
Though the label may read Indian harvested or organic,
240
the product may be hybridised wild rice placed in freshwater lakes and gathered by Indians in airboats.
241
Hand -harvested, organic and from the Great Lakes region is the real thing, with superior flavour and aroma,
242
but it may be difficult to find.
243
Though wild rice is one of the most expensive grains, it goes a long way.
244
Some say that one pound of the grain can feed 30 people.
245
To compensate for its high cost, try combining wild rice, half and half, with brown rice.
246
For a truly colorful presentation, try one -third of each, white rice, brown rice, and wild rice.
247
That is the end of part four.
248
You now have half a minute to check your answers.

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.
