शैडोइंग अभ्यास: IELTS Writing Task 1 Introductions [+ Free Task 1 PDF] - वीडियो के साथ अंग्रेजी बोलना सीखें

I took all the IELTS Cambridge books

and looked at all of the task one questions to see if there were any patterns.

You see, if there are any common patterns, we can use these to write great introductions quickly and easily.

So in this video, I'll answer two questions.

Are there any common questions and common patterns for task one academic?

And how can we use these to quickly and easily write introductions?

And at the end of this video,

I'll show you something that you should All task one questions in the academic part of the test will look like this.

You'll have a question statement and it will say something like graph and then it will tell you to summarize the information.

And then you'll have some kind of graph, for example, a line graph like we have here.

And then you will write your report based on the information that we have here.

And there are three parts to your writing.

So here we have details paragraphs.

This is where you will describe your report the details of the graph or the map or the process in more detail.

Here you'll have an overview paragraph and

if you want more information on how to write those I'll give you another free video at the end.

But what we're going to focus on today is very very important which is your introduction.

So how you write your introduction is you take the question and you You paraphrase it.

Paraphrasing just means that you write it so that it means the same thing, but you use different words.

You will always get a line graph or a bar chart or a pie chart, and they will always have data in them.

Numbers, basically.

Or you might get a map or you might get some kind of process to write about.

But are there some common words and phrases that are repeated again and again and again?

And the good news is there are.

like this.

The graph, chart, table, map, diagram, whatever it is below either shows or gives information about.

So what we need to do here is take this and paraphrase it.

And the good news is we can immediately delete below because when we go to write, we're not talking about information below.

So we've just removed one word.

That's one less thing that we have to think about.

information that we have to write about.

I'm going to rank these in how common they are.

So chart, appeared in 44 % of questions.

Table, 24%.

Graph, 18%.

Diagram, 11%.

And plan, 3%.

So these ones make up 86 % of what you will get on test day, probably.

If it's not exactly 86%, don't email me with a very angry email, but it's highly likely you're going to get one of these.

And the good news is, all you pie chart, whatever it is, to data.

They all mean data.

And then that leaves us with 14 % where it might be a map, it might be a diagram, it might be a process,

but all of these we can change this to illustration.

An illustration is just a drawing on a piece of paper.

That's what you can change it to when you're writing.

So let's look at some real examples.

The 2Pi charts show how the population changed.

We can change this to So that leaves us with shows and gives information about.

So shows, you could put presents, or you could put demonstrates, or you could put displays.

Any of these words are appropriate, and they are accurate.

What I would recommend doing is just learn one or two, and then move on.

Gives information about, you can use the exact same words.

Keep it simple.

So we could put here presents and we could put here displays.

After this, we normally get something like the percentage of, sorry if that's not clear,

the number of, the change or the increase or the decrease.

the amount of.

The thing that normally comes next are subjects.

This could be people, could be countries, households, or houses, or families, things like that.

And there are many different possibilities here, and you should always keep an open mind about what might come up, but these were by far the three most common.

So let's look at these in a little bit more detail.

So we could talk about maybe citizens here, or residents, if we're talking about it within the context of people individuals.

But remember if you get a question about people you're probably going to have to use the word

or a synonym of the word people not just in your introduction but multiple times throughout your report.

So a way of doing that is to think about the context that we're discussing.

So let's say it is people who visited Barbados.

What could we call these people?

Well we could

visitors or because the people in Barbados are very very friendly and hospitable we could call them guests

So don't just think generally, how do I change people?

Think specifically, what are these people?

And then next we have countries or regions.

And these two will often be connected.

So it would be people visiting this country or more likely people living in this country or people from this country.

But you could also say people from Barbados,

or we could say Bajan citizens or residents of Barbados or Bajan residents.

There's a lot of things you can do here.

But I would familiarize yourself with the big, big countries that often come up, the big English -speaking countries.

Australia, Australian, America, Americans, United Kingdom, British.

But one thing to remember is there's only a certain number of ways that you can say a country.

"Barbados is Barbados." Well, if you're from there, you might say Bim, but that's an informal way of saying it.

But there's not many ways that you, as someone from India or Pakistan or China or Vietnam, you probably will only know Barbados is Barbados.

So don't be afraid to repeat the word.

It is much better to repeat the word than change it to something that is inaccurate.

You're not going to lose scores automatically example.

Next we have households and families and these can be used interchangeably

but you could also here have homes or residences

and then there are a number of different words

that you might get

and I just want to show you quickly how you can not only use synonyms but change the form of the word.

So for example let's say it is about the number of workers so a synonym of that is employees

the word and then change the form of the word.

So for example, we change workers to work.

How could we say that?

People who work.

Or a different form of that word is working.

We could change that to working people.

Or we could take employees, those in employment, or even those employed.

Because a lot of students just think synonyms, synonyms, synonyms, synonyms, but you can take the word, or change it to a synonym and then change the form of that synonym.

100

There's lots of possibilities there, not only for your introduction, but also your overview and your details paragraphs.

101

So let's change this one.

102

So the data, we can delete below, displays the amount of individuals,

103

their living, so let's say their residence or residing in rural areas, countryside.

104

And then there will often be something like this, a time reference.

105

is you will often be shown change over time.

106

So a line graph, for example, the purpose of a line graph is to show changes over time.

107

And these actually come up in more than 50 % of questions.

108

Let's simplify this question a little bit just for demonstration purposes.

109

Out of these time references, 19 % are specific years.

110

So it might say something like in 1990.

111

number of people living in rural areas in 1990, specific years.

112

I would just repeat this.

113

There's no way of saying in 1990 differently.

114

And then 13 % said between X and Y.

115

So for example, between 1990 and 2004.

116

And then 8 % said from X to Y.

117

And all you do is just switch these.

118

So if it says between X and Y, you change it to from

119

X to Y and if it says from X to Y you change it to between X and Y.

120

So between 1990 and 2004 becomes from 1990 to 2004 and from 1990 to 2004 becomes between 1990 and 2004.

121

So we would change this up here from 1990 to 2004.

122

And that is as much predicting as we can do but you might be looking at this and think thinking, "Oh, but it says in four different countries.

123

How do we anticipate that?

124

How do we predict that?" Well, that brings me onto the four essential tips and the thing that you should never do.

125

So tip number one, paraphrase, but do not overcomplicate everything.

126

What we see is that students struggle with paraphrasing, not because paraphrasing is difficult.

127

I've just shown you how easy it is.

128

It is because they try to change every single word and they try and change it to something very, very complicated.

129

Keep it simple.

130

Tip number two is read and understand the question.

131

Don't go through each word like a robot.

132

How do I change the?

133

How do I change table?

134

How do I change below?

135

How do I change give?

136

That is how a robot would read this.

137

You need to first calm down, don't think about paraphrasing, understand the question, read and think about the question, and think about what it means overall.

138

This will mean that you can write a paraphrase that is accurate and appropriate.

139

Tip number three: one sentence is normally enough.

140

Sometimes it will be two, but in more than 90 percent of the questions that we analyzed, it was just one simple sentence.

141

What a lot of students do is they learn if you insert things that are not there,

142

that will actually reduce your score.

143

You're expected just to look at the data and report exactly what it says.

144

Tip number four, but probably the most important one, perfect practice makes perfect.

145

You cannot look at this video and immediately write great introductions.

146

Go and get a variety of different questions,

147

practice the techniques that I've That's what perfect practice is.

148

Last, two very important things that you should never do.

149

Number one, you shouldn't think that task one or any part of the IELTS test is a memorization test.

150

Memorization is not what they are testing.

151

They are testing your ability to communicate clearly in English.

152

So you need to be aware of all of the things that I taught you today, but you need to expect different things within the question.

153

wrote this it would be wrong because you weren't expecting in four different countries

154

so if you just act like a robot and memorize things

155

and you're not anticipating random things

156

that might be in there then you're going to be wrong

157

so we would have to finish this off by writing in four distinct nations

158

and that brings me on to the second thing

159

that you should never do which is watch one video

160

and think one video is going to guarantee a high score remember at the beginning showed you this,

161

your introduction is just a small part of your overall task one report, you need to learn how to write an overview and details paragraphs.

162

But don't worry, what I've done is I've created this video for you, which is going to help you out with that.

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।
