1
Part 4.
2
You will hear a professor of philosophy giving a talk on the ancient philosophy of Stoicism.
3
First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.
4
Thank you.
5
Now listen carefully and answer questions 31 to 40.
6
Ancient philosophy is not just about talking or lecturing or even reading long, dense books.
7
In fact, it is something people have used throughout history to solve their problems and to achieve their greatest triumphs.
8
Specifically, I am referring to Stoicism,
9
which in my opinion is the most practical of all philosophies and therefore the most appealing.
10
Stoicism was founded in ancient Greece by Zeno of Citium in the early 3rd century BC, but was practiced by the likes of Epictetus,
11
Cato, Seneca, and Marcus Aurelius.
12
Amazingly, we still have access to these ideas, despite the fact that the most famous Stoics never wrote anything down for publication.
13
Cato definitely didn't.
14
Marcus Aurelius never intended his meditations to be anything but personal.
15
Seneca's letters were, well, letters, and Epictetus's thoughts come to us by way of a note-taking student.
16
Stoic principles were based on the idea that its followers could have an unshakable happiness in this life,
17
and the key to achieving this was virtue.
18
The road to virtue, in turn,
19
lay in understanding that destructive emotions like anger and jealousy are under our conscious control.
20
They don't have to control us, because we can learn to control them.
21
In the words of Epictetus, external events I cannot control, but the choices I make with regard to them I do control.
22
The modern-day philosopher
23
and writer Nassim Nicholas Taleb defines a Stoic as someone who has a different perspective on experiences
24
which most of us would see as wholly negative.
25
A Stoic transforms fear into caution,
26
pain into transformation, mistakes into initiation, and desire into undertaking.
27
Using this definition as a model, we can see that throughout the centuries,
28
Stoicism has been practiced in more recent history by kings, presidents, artists, writers, and entrepreneurs.
29
The Founding Fathers of the United States were inspired by the philosophy.
30
George Washington was introduced to Stoicism by his neighbours at age seventeen,
31
and later put on a play based on the life of Cato to inspire his men.
32
Thomas Jefferson kept a copy of Seneca beside his bed.
33
Writers and artists have also been inspired by the Stoics.
34
Eugene Delacroix, the renowned French romantic artist, known best for his painting, Liberty Leading the People, was an ardent Stoic,
35
referring to it as his consoling religion.
36
The economist Adam Smith's theories on capitalism were significantly influenced by the Stoicism that he studied as a schoolboy,
37
under a teacher who had translated Marcus Aurelius's works.
38
Today's political leaders are no different, with many finding their inspiration from the ancient texts.
39
Former US President Bill Clinton re-reads Marcus Aurelius every single year,
40
and many have compared former President Obama's calm leadership style to that of Cato.
41
Wen Jiabao, the former Prime Minister of China, claims that Meditations is one of two books he travels with,
42
and that he has read it more than 100 times over the course of his life.
43
Stoicism had a profound influence on Albert Ellis, who invented cognitive behaviour therapy,
44
which is used to help people manage their problems by changing the way that they think and behave.
45
It's most commonly used to treat depression.
46
The idea is that we can take control of our lives by challenging the irrational beliefs that create our faulty thinking,
47
symptoms and behaviours by using logic instead.
48
Stoicism has also become popular in the world of business.
49
Stoic principles can build the resilience and state of mind required to overcome setbacks,
50
because Stoics teach turning obstacles into opportunity, a lesson every business entrepreneur needs to learn.
51
I would argue that studying Stoicism is as relevant today as it was 2,000 years ago,
52
thanks to its brilliant insights into how to lead a good life.
53
At the very root of the thinking, there is a very simple way of living.
54
Control what you can and accept what you can't.
55
This is not as easy as it sounds and will require considerable practice.
56
It can take a lifetime to master.
57
The Stoics also believed the most important foundation for a good and happy life is not money,
58
fame, power or pleasure, but having a disciplined and principled character,
59
something which seems to resonate with many people today.
60
That is the end of part four.
61
You now have one minute to check your answers to part four.
62
Thank you.
63
Thank you.

इस पाठ की शब्दावली और बोलने के सुझाव

यह C1 स्तर का स्पीकिंग पाठ वीडियो “IELTS Listening Section-4(Stoicism) with answers” पर आधारित है। सबसे ज़्यादा दोहराए गए शब्द ये हैं: Stoic, Stoicism, Cato, Marcus, philosophy। इस वीडियो में शैडोइंग के लिए 63 वाक्य और 758 शब्द हैं। बोला गया हिस्सा 7:50 लंबा है। वक्ता धीरे बोलता है, लगभग 97 शब्द प्रति मिनट, इसलिए हर ध्वनि की नकल करने का समय मिलता है। केवल 78% शब्द अंग्रेज़ी के 3,000 सबसे आम शब्दों में से हैं, इसलिए शब्दावली कठिन है।

इस वीडियो का व्याकरण

वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:

संरचनावीडियो में
Passive voice be + past participle — ज़ोर इस पर कि क्या होता है, न कि कौन करता हैwas founded · were based · has been practiced
Present perfect have/has + past participle — बीता हुआ काम जिसका असर अभी भी हैhas been practiced · have also been inspired · have compared
Relative clauses who / which + उपवाक्य — व्यक्ति या वस्तु के बारे में अतिरिक्त जानकारीsomeone who has · teacher who had

ध्यान देने योग्य उच्चारण

वक्ता 3 बार संक्षिप्त रूपों का प्रयोग करता है, जैसे can't, didn't, don't। इन्हें वैसे ही छोटा बोलें जैसा आप सुनते हैं।

  • “sh” और “zh” की ध्वनियाँ: meditation /mɛdɪˈteɪʃn̩/, initiation /ɪˌnɪʃ.iˈeɪ.ʃən/, irrational /ɪˈɹæʃ.(ə.)nəl/, caution /ˈkɔːʃ(ə)n/
  • लंबे शब्द — बलाघात सही रखें: entrepreneur /ˌɑn.tɹə.pɹəˈnɝ/, initiation /ɪˌnɪʃ.iˈeɪ.ʃən/, irrational /ɪˈɹæʃ.(ə.)nəl/, resilience /ɹɪˈzɪl.ɪ.əns/, amazingly /əˈmeɪzɪŋli/

हिंदी भाषियों के लिए मुश्किल ध्वनियाँ:

  • /v/ और /w/ का फ़र्क़ — /v/ में ऊपर के दाँत निचले होंठ को छूते हैं, /w/ में होंठ गोल होते हैं: virtue /ˈvɝt͡ʃu/, invent /ɪnˈvɛnt/, destructive /dɪˈstɹʌktɪv/, behave /bɪˈheɪv/
  • /z/ — इसे “ज” (/dʒ/) न बनाएँ: resonate /ˈɹɛz.əˌneɪt/, resilience /ɹɪˈzɪl.ɪ.əns/, amazingly /əˈmeɪzɪŋli/, translate /tɹænzˈleɪt/, capitalism /ˈkæp.ə.təlˌɪzm̩/
  • /æ/ — “ऐ” से ज़्यादा खुला: setback /ˈsɛtbæk/, irrational /ɪˈɹæʃ.(ə.)nəl/, translate /tɹænzˈleɪt/, capitalism /ˈkæp.ə.təlˌɪzm̩/, transform /tɹænsˈfɔɹm/

इस वीडियो से अभ्यास कैसे करें

  1. पहले बिना बोले पूरा वीडियो एक बार सुनें और जो शब्द नहीं आते उन्हें लिख लें।
  2. सामान्य गति पर एक-एक वाक्य की शैडोइंग करें और हर वाक्य तब तक दोहराएँ जब तक आपकी लय वक्ता से न मिल जाए।
  3. अपनी आवाज़ रिकॉर्ड करें और मूल से तुलना करें, ख़ासकर meditation, entrepreneur, initiation 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।
