So Tav, the test today will be around 12 to 15 minutes and if you're happy we can start?

Okay.

Fantastic.

Tav, I want to start please by talking about technology.

Tell me, how often do you use technology?

Well, I'm exposed to digital technology every day.

It has become an integral part of my daily routine.

The one stand out is my smartphone.

Yesterday I used it for learning online, or stream movies and use Google Maps to get around.

Thank you.

Excellent.

What devices do you use most?

Actually, the device that I rely on heavily is my smartphone.

This is due to the fact that it's small

and fit perfectly in the parts of my hands

so I can carry around in order to keep in touch with my family and friends anywhere, anytime.

Moreover, it's versatile so I can use it for both learning and entertainment.

Fantastic, well done.

Has technology improved your life?

It has a positive effect on my life.

For example, I can in the quarantine of COVID-19,

thanks to the technological advancement, I was able to attend online classes.

Moreover, high tech solutions and public transport can help me save time and effort.

They can work more productively and enjoy more free time.

Wonderful.

Thank you so much.

But are there any disadvantages to using technology?

Absolutely, yes.

I would say technology, overusing technology also has a detrimental effect on humans' mental health.

If people spend too much time online instead of socializing in real life,

it can make them feel isolated.

Moreover, there is a lot of violent content on the internet

so it can make people more aggressive behavior.

Definitely, thank you.

Let's talk about friends now.

How often do you see your friends now?

Actually, nowadays I rarely see my friends because of my headache schedule.

However, in the past, I used to spend my holiday traveling with my close friends.

This is due to the fact that we were both passionate about traveling and we liked to learn about new cultures

and gain a deeper understanding of the local people's way of life in order to broaden our horizon and create unforgettable memories.

Thank you so much.

What do you usually do with your friends together?

Yeah, like I mentioned both, I love traveling with my close friends.

Yeah.

In the past, we just used weekends hanging out together,

watching movies and eating out.

But then when we grow older, we have our own salary.

Yeah, we're getting rich.

Yeah, we enjoy something fancy like traveling.

Yeah, wonderful.

Contrast as you grow up.

Welcome.

Do you prefer to have just a few close friends or many friends?

I would say I would love to have a few buddies.

I believe quality is better than quantity.

I don't really care about the number of friends I have.

I pay more attention to their personality,

whether they are compassionate and whether we share the same views.

Having a few friends is enough as long as they are always there for me when I'm in trouble

and can give me helpful advice.

Thank you very much.

And to finish part one, let's talk about shopping.

Tao, do you enjoy shopping?

Absolutely, yes.

For example, last week I went to a Dior store and treated myself to a nice handbag and I felt open immune.

I believe shopping is not only helps me relax and unwind after a long day at work,

but also gives me a strong sense of fulfillment.

Thank you, I agree.

Do you prefer shopping online or in-store?

To be honest, in the past I referred shopping at physical stores

because I could try things on and see if they fit me properly

and I also wanted to feel the texture before making a purchase.

However, nowadays I enjoy shopping online, especially on Shopee.

This is due to the fact that it saves me time and effort and I can find a lot of discounts.

Yeah, which is very important because I don't have much disposable income.

I thought you just told me you're rich.

my business after I have a family.

Yeah, I know that feeling.

Wonderful, thank you.

Okay Tao, that brings us to the end of part one.

Well done.

Now we will move on to part two where I will give you a question here, okay?

And you have one minute to prepare.

The question is please Tao, describe a person who you think is very successful.

Yes.

Okay Tao, that brings us to the end of the one minute.

When you're ready, please start.

Absolutely.

There are many accomplished individuals I could talk about.

However, if I had to pick one, it would be Taylor Swift.

I chose Taylor Swift because she has had a profound influence on my life.

When I was in my teenagers,

In my teenage years, I was fed up with learning English and I often slept through my classes.

However, everything changed when I happened to hear her song You Belong With Me on Disney Channel.

That was a turning point in my life since it changed my perspective on learning English.

From then on, I started to enjoy learning English.

So I can vividly remember I used to buy a large number of textbooks just to write down

her song lyrics and I also tried to sing along while listening which helped improve my pronunciation and listening skills.

So let me tell you more about Taylor Swift.

100

She is a world famous singer songwriter.

101

She has won numerous Grammy Awards,

102

for example, particularly for albums like Fearless and Midnight,

103

which earned widespread critical acclaim.

104

In my opinion, Taylor Swift is the most beautiful woman in the world, not only because of her stunning looks,

105

but also because she has a heart of gold.

106

For example, she helped her pregnant friends by buying her house after knowing about her difficult situation situation in the future.

107

I would love to meet Taylor Swift and give her a heart.

108

Fantastic.

109

Thank you so much.

110

Well done, Tao.

111

I can tell and feel your passion towards Taylor Swift is wonderful.

112

Let's move on now to part three, Tao and I want to start by talking about the topic of success.

113

Tell me, how do people define success?

114

Well, that's an interesting question.

115

Some people think it is closely related to wealth.

116

This is due to the fact

117

that being rich can allow people to afford luxury items such as a Rolex watch or Mercedes Maybach,

118

which can reflect their social status.

119

Others think success means famous because when people have a good reputation,

120

it can help them stand the test of time.

121

However, I believe success is more about the way you are living in a healthy lifestyle.

122

Thank you.

123

Perfect.

124

Do you think success is more about money or happiness?

125

To be honest, it's definitely happiness.

126

What I mean is that people who are happy usually have more energy and they can work more productively.

127

And as a result, they sooner or later will be able to achieve success. For example,

128

in Korea there are many famous artists

129

but they are not happy because they were depressed or have suffered from cyberbullying.

130

And finally, they took their life, their own lives.

131

Yeah.

132

Moreover, success, true success comes from enjoying your life, having good relationships.

133

I agree.

134

Thank you.

135

How has the definition of success changed over time?

136

Oh, that's a great question.

137

In my opinion, it depends on age.

138

For all people, success means the national freedom.

139

This is due to the fact that many of them lived through World War II and experienced the loss of family members.

140

Therefore, nothing makes them feel more successful than having liberty.

141

In contrast, young people think success is something like being rich and famous.

142

Not only because being rich can help them enjoy a better quality of life,

143

but also being famous can help their reputation stand the test of time.

144

Thank you, thank you.

145

I love that contrast there, brilliant.

146

Now let's move on to talk about role models now.

147

Why do some people look up to successful individuals?

148

It's definitely because it's normally a positive influence because successful people

149

normally have achieved success in their field,

150

which is very important because they can help built a thriving community.

151

However, in my opinion, it's also because of their personality.

152

This is due to the fact that to become successful,

153

They worked very hard and didn't give up when they faced difficulty in life.

154

So they can set good examples for many people.

155

Thank you, thank you.

156

Very interesting.

157

How do famous people influence society?

158

Normally it's a positive effect.

159

Celebrities and influencers,

160

They are successful and they can inspire their fans and set good examples for many people to follow.

161

For example, in Vietnam there is a famous award named WeJoyce Award

162

where people honor the ones who positively contribute to the community.

163

Moreover, there are negative effects.

164

If famous people engage in bad behaviors like violence or drug use,

165

they can affect many people especially children in a harmful way.

166

Definitely, wow very interesting.

167

Okay Tam and that brings us to the final question now.

168

What qualities make someone a good role model?

169

Yeah some people think it's wealth because when people are rich they can enjoy a better quality of life.

170

But in my opinion, I believe it's about warm-hearted.

171

Kindness can make the world more peaceful,

172

which allows people free to pursue their dream and therefore they can achieve success in the future.

173

Fantastic, thank you.

174

I totally agree.

175

And that brings us to the end of the test.

176

Well done.

177

Fantastic, good job, good job.

178

How did you find that?

179

I find a great sensor for a few minutes because I overcome the abstract, the topics, license test.

180

I'm absolutely blown away from that.

181

You know, I love you, but I tried to pick a little bit more challenging topics for part three for you to try and push you.

182

I think that if you get a topic like travel or hometown, it's a lot easier to speak.

183

But when you're talking about success, role models and influence, it's far more challenging.

184

So I thought we did a great job.

185

Wow.

186

I know that you're feeling nervous a little bit before.

187

Yes.

188

Amazing.

189

Now, listen, the part one is phenomenal.

190

Yeah, your part one is absolutely amazing.

191

The part two about Taylor Swift, I was just blown away by it.

192

I will be honest, in the real, you spoke a little bit too long.

193

We were at two minutes and 20.

194

In the real exam, they would cut you off at two minutes, but I was enjoying listening so much.

195

And I think that people would benefit so much from listening to your answer for that.

196

So I let you run a little bit.

197

I love that you followed the technique too.

198

And you followed it perfectly.

199

Absolutely beautiful.

200

Have you always loved Taylor Swift?

201

Yes.

202

Yeah, okay.

203

You could feel that.

204

I was in my teenage years for real.

205

So was that story true about him inspiring you to learn?

206

Maybe I have to. Have to.

207

You're a really good liar.

208

Yeah.

209

Amazing.

210

So for me, if I was to give you a little bit of feedback, part one is beautiful, part two, excellent.

211

For part three, of course, I love that you use the different techniques.

212

So the first one, answer by example, alternative, beautiful.

213

The second one, some people think, but I, in fact, you pushed it even more more some people think others believe

214

but I wow unbelievable and then for that one question about defining success

215

when you used it depends on age I loved that as well

216

and I felt the emotion in your voice one thing I will say is

217

if I was to be really critical and just

218

if I was to say there was quite a lot not a lot

219

but there was a little hesitation a little bit um um

220

while thinking about ideas in the part three that's something

221

that I wanted to work on you know

222

if I was to be really critical

223

but to be honest I mean as a first go it was phenomenal absolutely brilliant I'm

224

so proud of you well done though thank you good luck in the exam yeah amazing thank you brilliant

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।
