Test 1.
2
You will hear a number of different recordings and you will have to answer questions on what you hear.
3
There will be time for you to read the instructions and questions and you will have a chance to check your work.
4
All the recordings will be played once only.
5
The test is in four sections.
6
At the end of the test, you will be given 10 minutes to transfer your answers to an answer sheet.
7
Now turn to section 1.
8
Section 1.
9
You will hear a telephone conversation between a travel company employee and a customer.
10
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 5.
11
You will see that there is an example which has been done for you.
12
On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.
13
Hello?
14
Hi, good morning.
15
This is Talia from Parabay Travel Agency.
16
Is Robert Goddard there?
17
Yes, speaking.
18
The man says that he is Robert Goddard.
19
So, Robert Goddard has been written in the space.
20
Now we shall begin.
21
You should answer the questions as you listen, because you will not hear the recording a second time.
22
Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.
23
Melbourne.
24
Was this your first visit to Melbourne?
25
No, I have actually been there twice before.
26
I see.
27
Now, what would you say was your favourite part about Melbourne?
28
Well, I did like seeing the exotic wildlife, and there are great sights to see, but I have to say I was most impressed by the amazing weather.
29
Yeah, the weather there is amazing.
30
Which of the sights listed as part of our official tour did you see?
31
And of those, which was your favourite?
32
First I saw the theatre, which was beautifully designed.
33
It was not nearly as cool as the Town Hall, though.
34
The building is a huge part of Melbourne's history.
35
Definitely my favourite.
36
I saw the aquarium too, but wasn't too impressed.
37
I see.
38
Yes, people often have great reviews of Town Hall.
39
Now, I would like to ask you about your dining experience.
40
Did you enjoy the food there?
41
Absolutely, I loved it.
42
I'm glad to hear it.
43
Could you tell me a little bit about what you most enjoyed about the food?
44
Being such an international city, I loved the variety.
45
I could find any type of food I wanted, whether I wanted seafood, burgers or anything else.
46
You name it and they had it.
47
Did you drive to Melbourne?
48
No, I flew.
49
I thought about going by train, but in the interest of time, I decided to go by plane.
50
Right, I see.
51
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.
52
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
53
And would you mind telling me whether you are under 20?
54
between the ages of 20 and 40 or older than 40?
55
It would be nice if I was still under 20.
56
My vacation probably would have been quite different.
57
Actually, though, I just turned 41 last week.
58
Oh, happy birthday!
59
So did you treat yourself and fly first class?
60
Ha!
61
No way!
62
I would love to have a budget that high.
63
I'm more in the mid-range income level.
64
I wasn't always, though.
65
I spent much of my life in a low-income household.
66
I see.
67
That answers my next question then of income level.
68
And what was the purpose of this visit?
69
I had to go there on business a lot before and decided I would go there for tourism this time.
70
I see.
71
And what is your occupation?
72
I am mainly a computer programmer.
73
I also write for a travel magazine on the side, which is why I visited Melbourne before, but it's not my main source of income.
74
I see.
75
Wow, it sounds like you work a lot.
76
Yes, I am very busy, which is exactly why I took a nice week-long vacation to Melbourne.
77
I completely agree.
78
Would you care to comment on your accommodation?
79
My hotel was a good value.
80
Staying in the city can get really expensive, so it was nice to find such a good price for the location and quality.
81
I'm glad I didn't end up in some cheap motel in the middle of nowhere.
82
I'm glad you didn't either.
83
Well, thank you for taking part in our survey.
84
And I'm glad you enjoyed your vacation.
85
No problem.
86
Take care.
87
That is the end of Section 1.
88
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
89
Now turn to section 2.
90
Section 2 You will hear a talk about the main points of interest and the improvements made in the area.
91
First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 15.
92
Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 15.
93
Thank you all for coming to our community meeting.
94
As you know, we're excited to unveil our improvement plan as we look forward to the influx of tourists in the summer months.
95
I'll start with a quick overview of the main points of
96
interest in the area for anyone who may not quite know his or her way around yet, and then I'll get to the improvements made.
97
First off is my favourite, the Science Museum, which is on the corner of St George Road.
98
If you have not visited yet, I encourage you to go before the busy season.
99
It is absolutely spectacular.
100
There is even a flight simulator you can try out.
101
Just west of the Science Museum is the National History Museum.
102
It's a sight not to be missed as well, with each floor devoted to a different era in our nation's history.
103
There are special exhibits for children with interactive games and fun history lessons too.
104
If you're looking for parking, it is available on the intersection of Queen Street and South King Street in the car park.
105
Standard hourly and daily rates do apply.
106
The best place for souvenirs is the shopping mall, though it gets extremely busy during peak times.
107
You can get there from the Tube or the entrance on Timber Road, just south of Cornwell Road.
108
This area has students everywhere, usually from the primary school across the street from the shopping mall.
109
Classes often take field trips and engage in guided tours through the area.
110
So that's the overview of the main sites, and hopefully by now I've given you a general idea of the area.
111
Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 16 to 20.
112
Now listen and answer questions 16 to 20.
113
Now I'm going to outline the improvements we have made in
114
our efforts to make the experience even better for each and every one of our visitors.
115
You probably noticed when you first drove into the car park this morning
116
that there is now additional signage to help avoid confusion.
117
The directions were not entirely clear at first, so we have increased the number of one-way signs indicating the correct direction of traffic flow.
118
Not far from there, in line with our mission of giving back to the community, we constructed a brand new playground for the primary school.
119
It is really something to be excited for.
120
The equipment is state-of-the-art and includes swings, a small climbing wall and even an obstacle course.
121
Now we'll head north and take a look at the Science Museum.
122
In response to our feedback from past visitors to the museum, there is now free information available outlining not only upcoming IMAX showings,
123
but also natural wonders like meteor showers, eclipses and other cool natural events.
124
the science museum isn't the only museum improving the experience of
125
its visitors the National History Museum has added an entire new
126
wing to its facility to accommodate the large crowds of people gathering to see the Civil War exhibit
127
inventions timeline exhibit
128
and other wonderful sections of the museum the increase in space
129
will definitely give a more calm comfortable experience for visitors
130
and finally remember
131
when there was actually a line at the mall entrance from
132
the tube station it was terrible trying to get anywhere from the tube
133
because foot traffic got so backed up sometimes we have addressed
134
that by adding another entry point into the mall from the other end of the platform to disperse the crowd
135
so those are the major improvements we have made
136
clearly having too many people that want to visit
137
and enjoy what our community has to offer the public is a good problem to have
138
and I am confident
139
that we have made the changes necessary to accommodate the growing
140
interest in the area as always we welcome any questions comments
141
or concerns about the new improvement plan in a few minutes I will open up the floor for questions
142
but you can also contact me or any other board member by email or through the city Thank you for coming,
143
and I now encourage you to stay for the questions and answers panel occurring between now and 10.30.
144
That is the end of section 2.
145
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
146
Now turn to Section 3.
147
Section 3.
148
You will hear two students called Jane and Mark talking to their tutor about the project assignments for their senior thesis.
149
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 23.
150
Thank you.
151
Now, listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 23.
152
So, you were both given your project assignments for your senior thesis today, right?
153
Yes, and we already have to submit our topics next week.
154
But how could they give us a grade this soon?
155
No, next week's due date will not be counted towards your final grade.
156
The teachers are just going to read your topic and give you feedback.
157
Oh, I see.
158
So, first we should come up with our topics, and then what?
159
Well, once you know what you want to study, you need to think about how you'll study it.
160
You need to decide on your research methods.
161
The methods will be the main part of your paper.
162
What about the results section?
163
Well, I can give you feedback on that, but you will be the one carrying out an experiment and thus will have to produce the results on your own.
164
What I would like to do today is practice writing research papers before you even begin your report.
165
I'll give you samples of old data from past experience, and you can practice writing results and drawing conclusions.
166
I think that would be really helpful.
167
Yeah, it sounds like a lot of extra work, but I'm sure it would make an actual project easier.
168
You're exactly right.
169
So let's get started.
170
First, let's try this simple experiment on fruit flies.
171
Read the information and then take 25 minutes to summarise a results and conclusion section.
172
That's really important.
173
Pay attention to the time limit.
174
OK.
175
Does it still have to be 6,000 words?
176
No, don't worry about that.
177
What if we get off topic?
178
I wouldn't worry too much.
179
You'll have so much information to write about that it should be easy to stay on topic.
180
Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 24 to 30.
181
Now listen carefully and answer questions 24 to 30.
182
But what about other sources?
183
Well, for this assignment, you can use the one from your textbook.
184
In your actual paper, you should find old experiments that support your topic.
185
So, do we need to find different types of sources?
186
For instance, should I be conducting lots of interviews to use in my paper?
187
No, there's no need to conduct lots of interviews or anything like that.
188
OK, I'm ready to get started.
189
I'm still a little confused, though, on how we should format our paper.
190
Don't worry about it for now, but on your final paper, make sure to pay attention to the format.
191
It should follow the guidelines exactly.
192
Oh man, I'm starting to understand why they give us all semester to do this.
193
Are there any other small details like that that we should know about?
194
Not a whole lot.
195
Make sure you provide two copies.
196
One for your teacher, of course, but one for yourself as well.
197
And of course, you know the due date, right?
198
It's April 11th, right?
199
What?
200
No, it's May 11th, right?
201
Yes, the due date is May 11th.
202
Write it down.
203
Oh wow, yeah, I need to note it.
204
Also, I'm having trouble finding information on my topic.
205
What if I can't find enough good sources?
206
It's alright to change your topic, just make sure to do it before the beginning of April.
207
Oh really?
208
Wow, I'm definitely going to change it then.
209
Just make sure to write a note to your teacher letting him or her know.
210
OK, so getting back to writing this sample paper, where do we start?
211
Should I just explain the experiment and what happened?
212
Well, you need to start with your hypothesis, what you think will happen, and then describe your procedure.
213
Then you can write up the results and your conclusions.
214
Oh boy, I don't know if I can handle any more instructions.
215
That is the end of section 3.
216
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
217
Now turn to section 4.
218
Section 4.
219
You will hear part of a lecture about factors you should consider
220
when creating advertising materials and the effects they can have on your product sales.
221
First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.
222
Thank you.
223
Hello class and welcome back to Marketing Strategies.
224
This week I will expand upon last week's lecture by talking about factors you should consider
225
when creating advertising materials and the effects they can have on your product sales.
226
Lesson 1.
227
Limit your advertising to the geographic area of your target market.
228
Though you may have a product that people want in a large area,
229
the distance that customers are willing to travel is a significant factor in their choice of where to purchase that product.
230
Take this example.
231
If you're really hungry and decide you want a burrito, would you choose the restaurant that is a block from your apartment, or the one that is just as good,
232
or even slightly better, across town.
233
Of course, you'd pick the closer restaurant.
234
Next, there's the method of communication to your target market.
235
How do you decide among radio ads, TV commercials, flyers, or even word of mouth?
236
While we often think of the visual presentation of ads, there's much more to advertising than the look.
237
Studies show that consumers are much more likely to remember advertising slogans if there's also a sound plate.
238
Did you know that your sense of smell is closely linked with memory?
239
Think about Mandy's candy store up the road.
240
Every time you walk past it, you can just smell the chocolate, right?
241
I bet you can almost smell it now.
242
Just mentioning the name brings about the smell memory and, in turn, a chocolate craving.
243
What better way to sell chocolate bars?
244
Obviously, sometimes appealing to the senses isn't the most practical way to advertise.
245
For example, it's a good idea to come up with a marketing strategy that adapts to the product, especially digital products.
246
The flexibility of this kind of products is extremely important, so it's very common for advertisers to form one single layout for all of their ads,
247
the visual, the medium, even the majority of the content, and simply update the ad each time they come out with a new version.
248
Remember, advertising is all about stirring up the right feeling in your potential customers, whether by stimulating the senses,
249
appealing to the intellect and so on.
250
Once the customer experiences the ad, the important thing is his or her reaction.
251
Someone could love the ad you made, but unless he or she considers buying the product, you failed to get the reaction you were looking for.
252
So once you have successfully reached your target customer and you have his or her business, often you will want to expand to a larger market.
253
More often than not, the same marketing strategies you used in your small campaign may not work for a larger audience.
254
The larger you scale your product, the more factors you must consider.
255
For instance, Apple operates worldwide, so they must tailor their advertising for each market they enter.
256
Often you'll see Apple ads on international flights that appear not only in English, which is the lingua franca of most regions,
257
but also in the native languages of the majority of passengers.
258
I travelled to Russia last week
259
and it was really interesting to see the same Nike ad that I've seen a hundred times, except this time it was in Russian.
260
OK, going back to the medium of the advertisement, even after choosing to create print ads instead of radio announcements,
261
television commercials, etc., there is more to consider.
262
If you print your ad in a newspaper, it will be read by a far different audience than if you print your ad in a popular magazine.
263
Would you put an ad for the new Justin Bieber album in a newspaper?
264
Probably not, because that product is most suitable for youths.
265
Let's face it, do you know anyone under the age of 25 that buys a newspaper?
266
No. Now let's try a few strategy exercises.
267
Imagine you're a company that is aiming to improve the environment by making products that reduce human waste.
268
How would you advertise your product?
269
Clearly it would send the wrong message if you put up flyers or other materials that caused lots of waste paper.
270
Consider instead putting commercials on the health channel or buying ad space on websites like UNESCO. Or here's another example.
271
What is one great place to advertise suntan lotion?
272
How about a swimming pool?
273
It has the exact group of people that need the product.
274
Alright, one last thing.
275
Let's say you're filming a commercial for a water filter pitcher.
276
What would be good scenery to use for the background?
277
Think about somewhere calm and relaxing with clean, fresh water.
278
Can't you see how much more effective a commercial with the beautiful scenery
279
and flowing rivers of a national park would be than, say, water dripping from a tap?
280
So to wrap things up today, think about the geography of your target market, the type of marketing material you should use,
281
and the most effective way to appeal to the customer in order to make a successful ad campaign.
282
That is all I have for you today.
283
Make sure to read through chapter 8 for Monday if you have not done so already.
284
OK, now I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have.
285
That is the end of section 4.
286
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
287
Thank you.

- शब्द की शुरुआत में s + व्यंजन — पहले “इ” न जोड़ें: stimulate /ˈstɪm.jəˌleɪt/, slogan /ˈsloʊɡən/, stir /stɝ/, spectacular /spɛkˈtæk.jə.lɚ/
इस वीडियो से अभ्यास कैसे करें
- पहले बिना बोले पूरा वीडियो एक बार सुनें और जो शब्द नहीं आते उन्हें लिख लें।
- सामान्य गति पर एक-एक वाक्य की शैडोइंग करें और हर वाक्य तब तक दोहराएँ जब तक आपकी लय वक्ता से न मिल जाए।
- अपनी आवाज़ रिकॉर्ड करें और मूल से तुलना करें, ख़ासकर assignment, scenery, overview जैसे शब्दों पर ध्यान दें।
शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
