Hi, this is IELTS, IELTS .com, Lesson 185.

that asks you to speak about a place you visited where everything was expensive.

I'll read the cue card to you now.

You should say: what the place was when you went there, why you think everything there was expensive,

and explain whether or not you would visit this place again.

A place I visited that I found to be exceptionally expensive is Dubai, UAE.

I visited the city about two years ago during my winter holidays.
14
I stayed in a luxurious area near the iconic Burj Khalifa and I was immediately struck by the opulence everywhere.
15
The hotels, restaurants, and even everyday activities seem tailored to a high -end clientele.
16
For instance, I recall dining at a restaurant with a view of the Dubai fountain, and while the meal was amazing, the bill left me speechless.
17
There are a few reasons why everything there is so expensive.
18
For one, Dubai is a global hub for luxury tourism, catering to wealthy visitors from around the world.
19
The city invests heavily in creating world -class entertainment, and the costs are naturally passed on to consumers.
20
Also, many of the goods and services are imported, And this, of course, adds to their price.
21
Despite the high costs, I thoroughly enjoyed my time there
22
because the city offers a unique blend of cultural experiences and stunning architecture.
23
I would happily visit again.

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.
