Was it about what you watched on TV last night?
59
I got asked about that by someone in the street a few days ago.
60
Actually, he wanted to know what I felt about the new shopping centre they're thinking about building near the railway station,
61
whether I felt it would solve some of the town's problems or actually just cause more.
62
Well, you've certainly got strong opinions about that.
63
You're always telling me what a rubbish idea you think it is.
64
True, and I told him what I thought.
65
But I don't think he really had any interest in what I had to say.
66
I got the feeling the authorities just want to be able to tick a few boxes, saying that consultation with residents has taken place.
67
I don't think he wrote down my answers to any of his questions.
68
But at least it served the useful purpose of firing me up about it again.
69
I'm going to sit down and write a letter to the local paper now.

You'll hear two people talking about a website.
85
Now look at questions 5 and 6.
86
of the country with lots of pages relating to its history, landscape, wildlife, local businesses, study opportunities here, all that sort of thing.
87
Sounds interesting, but I'm not sure how I can help.
88
I'm pretty new to the area and don't know much about it.
89
Well, you do know a lot about websites.
90
I wondered if you could take a look at what's online already and tell me how user -friendly it is, that sort of thing.
91
My idea is that it should be totally straightforward to navigate.
92
Sounds interesting, certainly.
93
But when do you want it done for?
94
I'm pretty busy at the moment.
95
It's not too urgent, in fact.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
