Section 1.
2
You will hear a man telephoning to ask for information about swimming lessons.
3
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 6 on page 2.
4
You will see that there is an example that has been done for you.
5
On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.
6
Hello, City Swim School.
7
Oh, hello.
8
I wanted to ask about swimming lessons.
9
That's in a class, not individual.
10
Right.
11
Well, we do group lessons at various levels.
12
To start off with, we have what we call the water babies class.
13
The first class is called water babies, so babies has been written in the space.
14
Now we shall begin.
15
You should answer the questions as you listen, because you will not hear the recording a second time.
16
Listen carefully and answer questions one to six.
17
Hello, City Swim School.
18
Oh, hello.
19
I wanted to ask about swimming lessons.
20
That's in a class, not individual.
21
Right.
22
Well, we do group lessons at various levels.
23
To start off with, we have what we call the Water Babies class.
24
That's for babies of three months and over.
25
Really?
26
As young as that?
27
Yes, that's really the best time to start.
28
Right.
29
Well, we do have a baby, so I'll make a note of that.
30
What do they actually do in the lessons?
31
Well, the main aim is just to familiarise them with the water so they feel at ease there.
32
They get the children to enjoy themselves.
33
They have lots of toys and things they can use to play with in the water.
34
Right.
35
And how much do the lessons cost?
36
They're held on Tuesday mornings, and each lesson costs £3 .80.
37
It's not really a course as such.
38
OK.
39
Well, I'll talk to my wife about that.
40
Er, but I was actually ringing about lessons for me.
41
OK.
42
So, are you a beginner?
43
Not exactly, but I'm not very good.
44
Well, the beginners' classes are really for people who don't have any experience of swimming.
45
They aim to teach you techniques for breathing in the water,
46
and they get you to do things like put your head under water and open your eyes.
47
OK.
48
I can do that.
49
and by the end of the course
50
they aim to have you swimming five meters i think i can probably just about do that okay
51
so you'd be better in the intermediate class then that's where you learn the main swimming strokes front stroke backstroke
52
and so on what about diving yes they teach you how to do
53
that and you'd also do some underwater swimming not with a tank
54
or anything oh no not scuba just ordinary underwater swimming
55
and in the intermediate course you also look at water safety both in the pool
56
and when swimming in other places okay well
57
that sounds the right level for me i think
58
so how much does
59
that cost 61 pounds for a course
60
that's 10 lessons can you tell me a bit more about
61
the class how many people would there be in it well the intermediate class is usually around eight to ten
62
that's what we aim at though occasionally it might go up to twelve
63
okay that sounds quite a reasonable size not too many and the class is for adults is it yes Okay.
64
and just out of interest is there an advanced class yes they focus on developing more efficient swimming techniques
65
and on working on your speed and they also prepare you for competitive swimming
66
okay now i think i'd want to start with the intermediate one really
67
before you hear the rest of the conversation you have some time to look at questions seven to ten
68
Now listen and answer questions 7 to 10.
69
now is there anything special i need to know well the classes are on tuesdays
70
and the first lesson is on january the 13th
71
so you need to register before then january the 8th is the latest
72
but it's filling up quickly
73
so i'd do it straight away you can pick up a form here or get one off the internet, and classes are at 7 .30pm.
74
Right.
75
Then I just roll up with my swimming trunks.
76
Do I have to bring my own towel?
77
That's right.
78
We provide all participants with a swimming hat, though.
79
Oh.
80
I don't usually wear one.
81
Well, we do insist on it, actually.
82
It helps the instructor to identify you, apart from anything else.
83
Oh, and don't forget you need a 20p coin for the locker.
84
Oh, OK.
85
Right, well, I've been meaning to do this for ages.
86
I really need to get some more exercise, and everyone says swimming is good for your health.
87
Yes, and a lot of people find it improves their confidence, too.
88
And, of course, it could save your life, or even someone else's.
89
That's right.
90
OK, well, thanks very much.
91
Goodbye.
92
Goodbye.
93
That is the end of Section 1.
94
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
95
Section 2 You hear a talk by a counsellor from the
96
University of New South Wales who will introduce some useful facilities and services on the campus.
97
First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 15.
98
Now, listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 15.
99
Hello everyone, and welcome to the University of New South Wales.
100
The first thing I'd like to do at today's orientation session is get you all oriented.
101
That means tell you the location of some useful facilities and services.
102
So, first of all, take out the maps we gave you all as you came in the door.
103
The map is the big yellow sheet of paper.
104
As you can see on the map, north is at the top, south at the bottom, etc. Which way is north?
105
Well, look through that window on my left, your right.
106
See the rising sun?
107
That would have to be east.
108
So north must be directly behind me.
109
Now, we're at the campus main gate.
110
The recreational facilities are on my right hand and its opposite is the student centre.
111
No questions?
112
Good.
113
Pretty easy, right?
114
OK.
115
Did everyone eat breakfast at the student food service this morning?
116
Was the food good?
117
Yes, yes, I am joking.
118
I've eaten there too.
119
So, after a meal like that, you must be eager to go to a doctor, right?
120
Well, I have good news for you.
121
The student health centre is located about half a kilometre straight north of here.
122
Look on your maps.
123
You see the street on the east side of this building?
124
Ned Kelly Avenue, just follow that about 500 metres and the health centre will be on your left at the 3rd Cross Street.
125
Now, I know you all just got here, so you must be wondering how to tell your folks you've arrived safely,
126
how much you miss the dog and how you already need more money.
127
If you don't have an iPhone, you probably are wondering where to find a computer.
128
Well, I have good news.
129
If you go straight out of its door and walk down the Garden Street, you'll see the internet unit on your left side,
130
just next to the gym.
131
The hours are posted on the door and the computers are free, but you must bring your student ID card with you.
132
Like I tell everyone, if you need help with anything, you can probably find right here in the student centre.
133
Do you see the four buildings there between the student centre and the library?
134
Those are the dormitories.
135
The men's dorms are the two on the south, the women's the two on the north.
136
OK, I'm sorry to have to tell you, but the university has been doing a lot of repairs and remodelling and it's not all done yet.
137
So there may be some small problems with your dorm rooms.
138
Maybe the window doesn't open.
139
Maybe an air conditioner is missing or does not work.
140
If there are any problems, you can go to the Complaint Office,
141
which is right beside the teaching building between the Parker Street and the Crammer Street.
142
Just tell them your problem and they should have it fixed by the time you graduate in four years.
143
I'm joking, but please be patient.
144
There are a lot of little things they need to take care of.
145
Tired of the school food?
146
No?
147
Give it a week.
148
Or maybe you just need a place to get coffee in
149
the wee hours of the night during one of those marathon study sessions.
150
Either way, you definitely have to check out the little cafe just past the women's dormitories.
151
They've got free
152
Wi -Fi, so a lot of students saddle up with coffee and a bagel for hours on end to get work done.
153
Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 16 to 20.
154
As for the dorm rooms, I have some bad news and some good news.
155
The bad news is the rooms are small and you'll probably be sharing space with at least three other students.
156
The good news is that each room has its own bathroom.
157
What's good about sharing a bathroom with three strangers?
158
Hmm, good question.
159
OK, call it bad news and worse news.
160
Hey, maybe try this for good news.
161
Each dorm has a kitchen.
162
If you want to make snacks or meals, you can do it there.
163
You can buy food containers at any campus convenience store so you can store your food in the kitchen.
164
But a word of warning, you should definitely write your name on your food containers.
165
Sad to say, there are food thieves among your fellow students.
166
Speaking of thieves, a word about security.
167
I mean, this is Australia and we do get drunken bush rangers wandering onto campus.
168
Each of you will be given a key for your dorm room.
169
Don't lose it.
170
You have to pay for any replacement and fill out a bunch of papers too.
171
Red tape, huh?
172
Your key does not work for the front door of your dorm, however.
173
To the right of each door, there's a keypad with numbers.
174
When you move in, they will tell you the code you use to enter the door.
175
Please do not tell the code to people who do not live in the dorm.
176
Let's see, have I forgotten anything?
177
Oh yes, most of you are not rich, correct?
178
So when your clothes get dirty, you can't just throw them away and buy new ones.
179
That means you have to learn to do laundry.
180
Or, men, that means you have to hurry up and get married.
181
If you decide to wash those clothes and not get married, there are laundries in each dorm. Where?
182
Oh, I almost forgot to tell you.
183
The laundry for each dorm is in the basement.
184
Some real good news this time if you're a student.
185
It is free.
186
You do have to buy your own soap, however.
187
The laundry closes by the by at 11 .30.
188
And now that I've mentioned 11 .30, please remember the dorm doors are locked at 11 .30pm.
189
Your code will not work.
190
If you want to get in, you'll have to call the night watchman
191
Don't worry, you can get that number at the dorm office
192
Yes, the dorm office and the complaint office are the same office.
193
Alright then, before we continue, are there any questions?
194
Now turn to section 3.
195
Part 3.
196
You will hear two students, called Shona and Peter, discussing their internship options.
197
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 25.
198
Now listen carefully and answer questions.
199
21 to 25.
200
Hi Shona.
201
Hi Peter.
202
Have you made up your mind about which internship program to apply for?
203
Yes, pretty much.
204
I'm entirely at a loss.
205
I mean, there are so many good ones.
206
Can you give me some tips?
207
Sure.
208
What is your top priority when weighing up these programs?
209
Well, I guess I'd go for ones that can help me with the skill set I lack for my future career.
210
I still need a lot of practical training in dealing with statistics.
211
But keep in mind that you don't want to set your goal too grand, like drawing up a business plan.
212
You might end up nowhere.
213
I see.
214
So I want to learn how to organise ideas and present them.
215
Good.
216
Now you've nailed step one.
217
Now what?
218
You must also consider your strengths for a suitable internship program.
219
Otherwise, you might get rejected or end up with one that you are incapable of doing.
220
But I have no idea what I'm good at.
221
Communicate with people around you or whom you've worked with.
222
That's what I did.
223
I thought I was a good team leader.
224
But many people I've worked with for various projects mentioned something else.
225
They admire that I could work around the clock to finish projects on time.
226
And indeed, I'm more focused and perform better when I'm pushed for time.
227
Good point.
228
So what do you plan to do next?
229
I'll visit the careers officer to help me with the school application form.
230
You know, the one we have to submit before applying to companies.
231
But it is unnecessary to fill it in.
232
It's only optional.
233
Really?
234
I'm glad I heard from you.
235
Then I'll ask the careers officer to look at my personal statement and give me some tips on polishing it up.
236
Don't you need help with your CV?
237
No, I'm good.
238
I have already learned to write it in class.
239
That's good.
240
So what kind of company did you choose?
241
I've decided to apply for an IT company.
242
Why is that?
243
Well, even though I've learned how the IT industry developed in the past from different lectures, I know nothing about its latest trends.
244
I'm prepared to work in an IT company and fill in the information gap.
245
I see.
246
What do you plan to do next term?
247
I think I'll stick to most of the optional modules I've chosen.
248
But regarding the language sessions, I'm doing poorly in Japanese.
249
I'd better drop it before wasting more time.
250
I think I'll learn Spanish instead.
251
Oh.
252
I learned Spanish for a year.
253
I think you'll find it interesting.
254
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 26 to 30.
255
Now listen and answer questions 26 to 30.
256
Do you know what job opportunities these companies offer interns?
257
I've searched online and browsed some of the schemes.
258
Do you know SAIC?
259
Yes, I heard they offer internship positions dealing with customer interaction management, but I'm not quite sure what that means.
260
Well, the position offers the chance to become fully aware of customer value
261
and keep in touch with customers to keep them highly engaged and satisfied.
262
These include activities such as PR, communications, marketing, and customer service.
263
Sounds like loads of work to do.
264
What about Gemini Technologies?
265
It's an IT consulting company.
266
Although many employees say it's stressful working there, I want to apply for this one.
267
Why is that?
268
Actually, the company provides service to improve software architecture.
269
But that's pretty demanding, as a team of software engineers has to provide detailed analysis
270
and suggestions for required changes before the deadline.
271
As an observer and participant of a particular project, an intern can learn how to work to a strict deadline.
272
That's not my area of expertise, but I'm sure you'll excel at this.
273
I certainly do hope so.
274
Have you checked out Deloitte? Of course.
275
That's a renowned accounting firm, and thus its internships offer excellent learning experiences in this regard.
276
You know, things like examining a company's financial statements,
277
the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement.
278
I want to give it a try, but I might get rejected, so I need a backup plan.
279
Have you read anything about Kearney?
280
Yes, it is another consulting firm.
281
It provides opportunities to reach out to other business partners and pay attention to networking.
282
Well, that sounds interesting.
283
I'm thinking about Vortex, but I haven't got anything useful from its website.
284
I worked there last summer.
285
It's an international company with headquarters in Spain, so most of the managers here speak Spanish.
286
Thanks to the internship experience, I became fluent in it.
287
Right.
288
That's not for me.
289
That is the end of Part 3.
290
You now have half a minute to check your answers to Part 3.
291
Section 4 You will hear part of a lecture about oxytocin and trust.
292
First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.
293
You Thank you.
294
The development of trust is an essential social tool allowing people to form productive
295
and meaningful relationships both at a professional and personal level.
296
Trust is indispensable in friendship, love, families and organizations and plays a key role in economic exchange and politics.
297
Much recent evidence indicates that trust contributes to economic, political and social success.
298
When we make contacts with strangers, such as doing business with the clients who we meet for the first time,
299
our trust in them can only rely on their kindness.
300
So from our own judgment or the comments from other people, we can have a rough idea if the stranger is trustworthy.
301
Trust is important because it is the basis around which all human relationships evolve.
302
Without trust, there can be no relationship.
303
Trust can come naturally, or it can be manifested.
304
If you find trust of this magnitude in life, then you are lucky.
305
Also, you can always count on them to protect through all, if not most, of life's perils.
306
Trust is important because if you don't trust someone, then they are not available.
307
Believe it or not, reducing the chance of suffering from poverty is to understand trust, because when you trust other people,
308
you can have more support and resources.
309
However, our ability to trust others varies from individual to individual, just like different people's ability of recognising a person's face is not the same.
310
Bonds of trust are also extremely fragile.
311
A single act of betrayal, such as a marital affair, can instantly erase years of trustworthy behaviour.
312
The consequences of such breaches in confidence can be disastrous and not only for a relationship.
313
The study demonstrates how oxytocin can facilitate social interactions after trust
314
has been violated by potentially lowering defence mechanisms associated with social risks
315
and by overcoming negative feedback that is important for adapting behaviour in the future.
316
Luckily, oxytocin in our body has the ability to inspire trust in and among people.
317
This chemical is released whenever interaction happens between people.
318
To study social interactions, economists and more recently neuroscientists take advantage of a simple experiment.
319
Two participants play the so -called trust game.
320
The first participant is faced with the decision to keep a sum of money
321
or share it with the second participant who has no obligation to give the money back.
322
He would get more money if the second person returns it.
323
In this game, the first person is left with an important social dilemma, to trust or not to trust.
324
Although it is more profitable to trust, doing so leaves the investor at risk of betrayal.
325
Trust is not something that naturally occurs when two people meet for the first time.
326
It involves a process.
327
One person has to show the quality of being trustworthy to the other person.
328
This can be achieved by certain behaviours and communication.
329
Therefore, trust is conditional.
330
People should not take it for granted.
331
Oxytocin does not only exist in human beings.
332
Animals also have this gift, and it can be seen when they have cooperation with each other.
333
Oxytocin in monkeys, for example, allow them to work together to find food and to fight against enemies.
334
The Nash Equilibrium's game theory, the first participant will make the best decision he can, with no expectations that the second participant would change his decision.
335
The second participant will do the same.
336
So, the outcome depends on the decision of the other person.
337
This game is similar to the one we just talked about.
338
The oxytocin level doesn't stay the same in a person's body.
339
Studies have found that people who are under a lot of stress would have higher levels of oxytocin.
340
Oxytocin causes a substantial increase in trust among humans, thereby greatly increasing the benefits from social interactions.
341
It's also noted
342
that the effect of oxytocin on trust is not due to a general increase in the readiness to bear risks.
343
On the contrary, oxytocin specifically affects an individual's willingness to accept social risks arising through interpersonal interactions.
344
to sum up oxytocin is like a kind of social glue
345
that is helpful in social bonding further research is needed to explore oxytocin
346
and trust and how this hormone can be used to strengthen our trust in others
347
and even treat mental disorders
348
that specifically relate to deficiencies in social behavior next we're going to talk about
349
that is the end of section four you now have half a minute to check your answers.

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.
