1
Okay, I think we can start.
2
This is the speaking test of the International English Language Testing System taking place on the 11th of February.
3
Centre number, DDC125.
4
And the candidate is Mehrnush Hafi.
5
The candidate number is 01313458.
6
The examiner is Samson Sees.
7
Examiner number, 443533.
8
Good afternoon, my name is Samson.
9
Would you please tell me your full name?
10
Sure, my name is Mehrnush Hafi wonderful can I see
11
your identification please thank you wonderful
12
thank you very much okay in the first part of the
13
exam I will ask you some personal questions let's talk about your leisure time
14
when When and how much leisure time do you generally have in the week?
15
Well, actually I have quite a hectic schedule in the week
16
and I'm almost working 24-7 from 9 in the morning to ungodly hours at night
17
because I have a full-time job with a very heavy workload which I have to manage.
18
So to answer your question I can say that I don't really have much free time during the week these days.
19
Right.
20
And who do you generally spend your leisure time with?
21
If I get the chance to have some free time for myself, I prefer to spend it with my family, since on the other occasions or the other days,
22
we don't really have much time.
23
And we are so busy with our grueling schedule, so when we have this opportunity, we have to take it to be together.
24
And if I want to tell you about the activities we do when we're together, I can say that we just sit and watch our favourite drama series in the evenings,
25
which is called This Is Us.
26
And we have some junk food, snacks to enjoy this quality time together.
27
Wonderful.
28
And what are some activities you enjoy in your leisure time?
29
Just go through them briefly.
30
As I mentioned earlier, I have a very, very busy schedule and I don't have much free time for myself.
31
So sometimes I just prefer to sit and relax because I feel exhausted at times.
32
And yeah, I need to get some sleep and free up some time just to maybe be with my family.
33
That's also something else I would like to do in my free time.
34
We can talk with each other about the plans we have for the future.
35
Just to, you know, it actually helps me figure out what I want to do about my life and it motivates me.
36
and it encourages me to keep on trying as I am.
37
These are the things I normally do in my free time.
38
Wonderful.
39
And what do you like about these activities altogether?
40
I really enjoy spending time with my family, especially my mother and my sister,
41
because it really gives me more energy after I'm done with my work or with my studies.
42
So it really helps me emotionally.
43
And I do need to hang out with my friends on the weekends especially
44
because we usually go hiking and it is a very good chance to be away from the hectic pace of Tehran.
45
And I can just look at the snow-covered peaks in the mountains and enjoy the fresh air.
46
So these are the things I really love about these activities I do in my free time.
47
Right.
48
Okay, let's move on to talk about animals.
49
Do you like animals?
50
It depends on what kind of animal we're talking about, but I can say that I like farm animals
51
because I encounter them from time to time when I go to the countryside to have a walk.
52
And I can say that lambing is an extraordinary time of the year and I enjoy looking at the
53
lambs suckling up to their mothers.
54
I think it's adorable.
55
And I think that's the reason why I sometimes go to
56
my uncle's farm in the northern part of Iran to just see these animals and enjoy the nature.
57
Right, and what sort of animal would you like to have as a pet?
58
I would say I would like to have a dog as a pet, but to be honest, I used to be afraid of dogs until I saw Coco,
59
which was my student's pet actually.
60
And Coco changed, made a big change in me and made me consider taking a puppy from an animal shelter, which I haven't done yet, but I have plans to.
61
And I would say dogs are good animals as a pet because they're companionable,
62
they can be house trained and they obey commands, which I love.
63
Oh, that's wonderful.
64
Okay, thank you very much.
65
You're welcome.
66
Right, now in part two, I will give you a card with a topic, and you will talk about this topic for two minutes.
67
You have one minute to think about what you're going to say, and you can make some notes to help you if you wish.
68
Do you understand?
69
Okay, sure.
70
Thank you.
71
So, I want you to describe an interesting animal you have seen.
72
Here's a piece of paper.
73
Thank you pencil and here is your topic.
74
OK, so you have one minute to make notes.
75
Please go ahead.
76
Thank you.
77
Thank you.
78
Okay, that's the one minute up.
79
You now have two minutes to talk.
80
You can go ahead.
81
Okay.
82
So, you asked me to talk about an exciting animal that I have seen.
83
To be honest, in my country, we usually see cats, but we rarely see dogs roaming the streets,
84
which are not really the people's favorite.
85
But I mean in some other countries like Canada, people have the chance to see some other animals like goose,
86
bebers, conks, or even bears every day.
87
So what I want to say is that if I had the chance to live in a country like Canada, I could name a number of animals right now to answer your question.
88
However, I remember
89
that I went to a zoo in Africa with my sister back in 2018 where I saw an African wildcat.
90
It actually looked similar to a huge tabby cat but it had a thicker a tail with a very a blonde
91
tip with some black stripes.
92
I can say that it was nothing like the other wildcats I had seen before on TV
93
and from what I heard these wildcats are fairly shy and
94
and they have been on the brink of extinction for a
95
while which is sad and what happened that they was
96
that we were allowed to feed the wild cats
97
so i tried to do it
98
but the cat approached me like it wanted to attack me
99
and i was terrified so my sister told me
100
that i should have been more careful
101
because these animals these wild cats are cannot be tamed under any circumstances
102
so in my opinion And that was a really interesting animal because it was different.
103
And I had never seen something like that before.
104
So I can say that's the reason I just explained about this animal.
105
It was something extraordinary to me.
106
And to talk more about that, I can say that...
107
Thank you very much.
108
Okay, that's the two minutes up.
109
I can take your papers back now.
110
Thank you very much.
111
Alright, in part two you talked about an interesting animal that you saw.
112
Now in this part I want to ask you some questions related to this topic.
113
Now, how can animals cause problems for humans?
114
To answer this question I can say that they can only pose a problem
115
when they pose a threat to our safety or when they haunt the animals that we herd herd.
116
What I mean is that maybe some kinds of wild animals may bite us
117
and that can result in some injuries and infections which in some cases are considered as irreparable harm to our health.
118
On the other hand, in my opinion, maybe they can cause emotional problems like when we have a pet
119
and they die due to some reasons which can contribute to some, to a very deep sorrow and sadness.
120
I would say that's a problem actually.
121
Right.
122
And what kind of animals do people keep as pets in your country mostly?
123
I don't really have much information to answer that question
124
because I'm not an animal lover and I don't know many people who have pets.
125
From what I have heard, many Iranians keep some birds like parrots and budgies, I can say.
126
However, they are allowed to fly free within the apartment,
127
but their owners just make sure to keep all the doors and windows closed or they may escape.
128
And on the other hand, in the past few years,
129
Iranians have been showing some interest to take care of some stray puppies,
130
which I consider a really nice job.
131
Wonderful.
132
And do you think animals will still be important in the future?
133
What I predict is that yes, they will absolutely have the same significance in the future,
134
or even more because they are actually essential for maintaining a balanced ecosystem
135
and for the production of livestock which is which influences the water air
136
or soil and as I mentioned earlier due to the reason
137
that many people not only in Iran
138
but also in other countries have been showing an interest to take care of puppies or pets generally.
139
And they have been supporting animal rights.
140
Yes, in the future we can have even more of these animals
141
or we can bring some of them back with other cloning technology maybe.
142
And how do you think we can stop animals going extinct, the ones that are critically endangered now, this day and age?
143
I think it's something that both the government and the people have to do.
144
First of all, the government has to take some steps to just take care of some animals or establish some rules
145
to forbid some acts which can harm the animals or their lives.
146
And on the other hand, we have to just improve our own culture, like the culture we have among us, and not to harm the animals.
147
Or, I'm not just talking about harming the animal.
148
If we just teach ourselves to take care of the animals or just do nothing to them, that would also work.
149
We don't need to just do something to improve the situation, you know.
150
Thank you very much.
151
Okay, that's the end of the test.
152
Do you want to know what band score you'll get in the IELTS Speaking Test?
153
Perhaps you want to improve your performance and prepare yourself for the real test,
154
then why not book an online mock test with us that will last for 25 minutes, 12 minutes of the test itself,
155
and 13 minutes of comprehensive feedback.
156
Plus, we'll give you useful tips on how to make your performance better.
157
Remember, all our examiners are especially trained by British Council instructors.
158
So, we know how to help you.
159
Join us.
160
Now we can quickly just go to your band score and then we can look at the other situation.
161
So all I can say is, at the very beginning is wow.
162
Thank you very much.
163
It was brilliant.
164
That wow had a lot of meaning to it actually because you know we're looking at, we're clearly looking at a nine here
165
because you're very much in control of not only the English language
166
but also all the structures and all the techniques that are required for the IELTS speaking test tests.
167
So let's go through them one by one, and you can hear me out here.
168
I mean, fluency and coherence.
169
We'll look at that first.
170
I mean, your linking words, they were wonderful.
171
They were all in the correct spots as we were looking at.
172
Answering, the way you were answering the questions, referring to the questions, even that you didn't know what the questions were, you made some reference towards the question.
173
You gave the answer, and then you went on to your off topic, particularly with the discussion side of things, which is absolutely fine as long as there's a reference towards
174
the actual answer then you're good to go basically then you'll get your marks for the speed
175
and also connecting your ideas together which was also
176
fantastic you had your ideas you had your sub ideas I
177
would say you had a very you know great speed of
178
the way you were talking normally we would you know tell candidates to speak a little bit slower
179
but in your case obviously you had no problem with being able to produce your idea
180
and keep your idea going
181
so speed didn't get in the way of anything as as we could see clearly see there
182
and you know your intonation it sounded very natural again adding to all this fluency
183
and coherence business just having a general conversation
184
and being able to express the language the best you can
185
and then okay let's look at vocabulary now you had a
186
wide range of vocabulary I could see you could just easily paraphrase any word
187
and have the same meaning
188
and use different words just to connect all those different vocabulary together
189
and it was a wide range and you use them all in the correct places, depending on the topic and depending on the question that was asked.
190
So again, I didn't really see any difficulty or any struggle with your vocabulary.
191
Wonderful stuff.
192
Okay, now to grammar and accuracy.
193
Again, grammar, I didn't even see you have any grammatical errors at all, actually, to be honest with you.
194
That's wonderful.
195
It would be great if everyone could do that.
196
Structure, again, I mean your simple sentences, no problem at all.
197
Complex structures, you didn't have any problem with that, and you didn't even stutter.
198
Okay, there were a few ums here and there, maybe just a very tiny bit.
199
That would happen with any native speaker, any English speaker, being asked a question they didn't know about.
200
So there will always be pauses.
201
In fact, pauses are good in the IELTS speaking test.
202
That gives you a few seconds to pull yourself together and give out your answer.
203
So, great grammar and accuracy, it was wonderful.
204
Pronunciation, again, with the simple pronunciations and complex, harder words to pronounce, I think you were spot on
205
and you were very clear and I don't think you would have any problem at all with that.
206
So, we're clearly looking at a 9 here.
207
This is a typical 9 in the IELTS speaking test speaking test.
208
I mean, are there any questions you'd like to ask me regarding the whole situation?
209
I was a bit confused with part two because the question that I was asked, I didn't really have much to say about it.
210
But what I did was going off the topic for the first, I think the first minute, I guess it took me one minute to talk about some other things,
211
my own experience, and then I just came back to the main topic topic so is that a problem?
212
No, no it's not a problem at all.
213
In fact we encourage candidates to do that and I was going to make a reference to that actually.
214
You spoke for you know the full two minutes and I even stopped you in the middle.
215
That's what the examiner does.
216
They stop the candidates when the two minutes is up that's fine and going off topic like that.
217
I mean you you gave reference to the answer straight away
218
so you clearly understood what the question was even though you didn't have much information
219
or maybe you couldn't talk too much about the actual topic that was asked.
220
So we actually encourage candidates to do that.
221
And you did that perfectly.
222
You made the 30% reference towards the actual topic and then you went off topic and it's absolutely fine to do that.
223
That's not a problem.
224
In fact, that's a technique that we would always encourage for our IELTS candidates to do that because it will save you.
225
It will definitely kill off the two minutes of time.
226
And then again, made another reference to the actual question.
227
So that just proves to the examiner
228
that you've understood the question even though you don't have much information about it
229
and you're there to talk and it was all fluent and I didn't have any problem with your telling.
230
It's more like telling a story, the two minutes of...
231
Yeah, actually I didn't, I mean going to Africa didn't really happen to me.
232
I just wanted to say something and that's why I refer to an experience I never had.
233
Oh, there's nothing wrong with that.
234
I just wanted to explain about the topic.
235
Absolutely, because it's about talking for two minutes, and based on the four criteria, so it doesn't matter if that never happened.
236
It could be a complete fake story.
237
It doesn't matter.
238
If it's true or false in the IELTS speaking test, I mean, some people know this, some people don't know this,
239
but being true or false really doesn't matter in the IELTS speaking test.
240
It's all about just understanding the question and getting through it with your ideas, going off topic if you have to,
241
because no candidate is expected to know fully about what topics there are.
242
I mean, the brain would explode if you wanted to go through every single topic in the world and memorise everything.
243
It's impossible.
244
Unfortunately, some academies do that, in fact, which is not a good thing.
245
They tell them to keep studying different topics.
246
It's not about studying different topics and memorizing stuff from...
247
I think that's impossible.
248
It is impossible.
249
You're absolutely right.
250
And what candidates would do, what you just did, I would encourage all the candidates to do it.
251
When you don't know about a topic, which is very likely to happen, it's very natural, because you are actually tested on not knowing about a topic
252
and dealing with the situation about a topic you don't know about.
253
And you did that clearly, you made reference to the question, I'm not very well informed about this topic, but I can talk about this.
254
And then you answer the question in 30% and then you go on to your own topic, that's absolutely fine.
255
So definitely what you did was, we're looking at the correct techniques of a band score 9.
256
So very, very well done.
257
Thank you very much.
258
And do you, there's no other questions and I guess...
259
No, thank you.
260
Thank you so much for that feedback.
261
Oh, it's my pleasure and hopefully we'll see you around.
262
Sure.
263
Thank you.

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.
