1
Now turn to part four.
2
You'll hear a girl called Trisha Simpkins talking at a public
3
meeting about a plan to create a nature reserve in the centre of a large city.
4
For questions 24 to 30, choose the best answer A, B or C.
5
You now have one minute in which to look at part four.
6
Thank you.
7
Good afternoon.
8
Thank you for coming to this public meeting
9
which has been called to discuss the idea of creating a nature reserve in the city, that is, an area where wildlife is protected.
10
And to begin with, local teenager, Trisha Simkins, is going to tell us some of the background to the idea.
11
Trisha.
12
Yes, hello.
13
I'd like to start by saying that, like many city teenagers, I don't have much contact with the countryside.
14
I live off a busy, polluted shopping street, full of people and cars in the middle of a crowded city, and I'd never given any thought to wildlife.
15
Even though every house down my street has got a bit of a garden, and we have trees along the road and a piece of waste ground at one end, it seemed nothing out of the ordinary,
16
and I took it all for granted.
17
My attitude started to change
18
when we had to do a survey of the wildlife in the city as part of a school project.
19
We chose ten families from the street and we asked them just to write down all the animals,
20
birds, insects and so on that they could remember seeing in their garden
21
or down the street during the last couple of years.
22
All sorts of surprising things soon started coming out of that survey, like that we have 20 different sorts of butterfly,
23
50 different types of birds and all sorts of animals, even some quite large ones like foxes and deer.
24
At first we wondered what it meant, like was it a world record or something?
25
We'd no way of knowing.
26
So what we did, we got in touch with a nature reserve out in the country
27
and asked them what you could see there.
28
And that's when we realised that we've as much, if not more, wildlife than they do.
29
and that's what really got us interested in the idea of a nature reserve here
30
because what worries us now is
31
that we may be losing our local wildlife one specially worrying
32
thing has been all the cutting down of trees in the
33
streets we've got really big old trees here in this part of the city
34
and of course if one gets damaged in a storm
35
or gets a disease it has to be removed
36
but this year alone over 100 of these trees have been chopped down
37
Now the reason given for this is that the trees have really extensive root systems, which makes it difficult for people laying gas pipes, electricity cables and things.
38
But we think these problems are not as serious as they are made out to be, and there's no need for all this destruction.
39
What's more, although the local council has agreed to plant new trees in place of the old ones, what they're planting are these little ornamental trees that look nice,
40
but the birds and animals just don't use them in the same way
41
and they're not even saving money because more suitable trees cost just the same.
42
Another example of what can happen is the wasteland at the end of our street.
43
It belongs to the city council and as children we all used to play there
44
and we thought it was really great because it was
45
so covered in bushes and wildflowers that you could get lost if you went off the little muddy tracks.
46
Then a few years ago, no doubt thinking they were doing the right thing, the council decided to tidy it up.
47
And now it's just an area of grass where people go to exercise their dogs.
48
There are a few little trees, but basically there's not a lot there anymore.
49
So, what I'd like to propose this afternoon is that we use this space to create a nature reserve.
50
We think it should be allowed to go back to its natural condition, thus providing a refuge for the local wildlife which may be suffering from the loss of trees in the area.
51
This would, of course, also be a leisure amenity for people who want to get away from the stresses of city living, which is hardly something we would want to deny them.
52
So, I would like you...
53
Now you'll hear part four again.
54
Good afternoon.
55

98
So I would like you...
99
There'll now be a pause of five minutes for you to copy your answers onto the separate answer sheet.
100
Be sure to follow the numbering of all the questions.
101
I'll remind you when there is one minute left so that you're sure to finish in time.
102
That's the end of the test.
103
Please stop now.
104
Your supervisor will now collect all the question papers and answer sheets.

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.
