43
And your phone number?
44
I only have a mobile.
45
Is that OK?
46
That's fine.
47
OK, it's 614381997.
48
But if you want to contact me, usually the best way is by email.
49
OK, what's your email address then?
50
It's susansmith at post .com.
51
Thanks.
52
Now, you said you're living in Australia.
53
Right, in Brisbane.
54
OK, what's your address in Brisbane then?
55
234 Beckett's, that's B -E -C -K -E -T -T -S Road, Brisbane, 4054 Right.
56
Will you be working in New Zealand?
57
Yes, I have a job at Auckland Hospital Oh, are you a nurse?
58
Most people assume that or think I'm a doctor but actually I'm a chemist Oh, sorry That's OK When will you need the accommodation from?
59
Well, I don't start work until the 25th of February
60
but I'd like to give myself some time to settle in A couple of weeks would be nice let's say, from the 10th of February.
61
Our leases start from a Monday, and the Monday closest to that is the 8th of February, would that suit?
62
That's fine.
63
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 4 to 10 on page 2.
64
Now listen and answer questions 4 to 10.
65
You OK, let's talk about what kind of place you'd like to rent.
66
Hmm, I like the outdoors, so my dream would be a house that has its own garden.
67
Is there anything else you'd consider?
68
An apartment, for example?
69
I don't know.
70
They usually don't have an outdoor area.
71
But I guess, as an alternative, if you could find me one with a large balcony, I'd be happy.
72
How many rooms do you want?
73
Usually one -bedroom places are too small.
74
Two would be ideal.
75
Now, what would you like to have in the place when you move in?
76
I'm bringing most of what I need with me.
77
I have beds and sofas and a television, all that sort of stuff, so none of that is necessary.
78
Sounds like you want a partially furnished house with a washing machine.
79
Actually, I'm bringing that too.
80
All I really need in the place is a fridge.
81
I don't have one, so we'll definitely need one.
82
Okay.
83
Can you find something like that for around $350 a week?
84
Well, I'll certainly try.
85
I'll start looking for places that cost around $300 and see if there's anything suitable.
86
You definitely won't need to pay more than $400 for something like that.
87
Oh, that's good.
88
I couldn't pay more than that.
89
All right, I'll see what I can find.
90
You're working at the hospital.
91
Do you want to live somewhere near there?
92
Most people think it's strange, but I don't like living close to work.
93
But I'm a mad keen surfer, so it's important for me to be close to the beach.
94
OK.
95
Do you need to be near public transport?
96
No, I usually drive to work because I work a lot of shift work.
97
So wherever I live, we'll need to have parking close to the door so I won't have to walk far at night.
98
Anything else?
99
I've heard that power bills can get quite expensive, especially in the winter.
100
It'd be great if electricity was part of the rent.
101
OK, just one last question for our records.
102
Where did you hear about us?
103
You're calling...
104
That is the end of Section 1.
105
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
106
Now turn to section 2 on page 3.

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.
