Section 1 You will hear a conversation between two students talking about driving lessons.

First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 5.

You will see that there is an example that has been done for you.

On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.

Hi, Zach.

I heard you passed your driving test.

Congratulations.

Thanks, Olivia.

I passed just last week.

It feels great to be independent and driving on my own.

I really want to take driving lessons, but I haven't been able to find a driving school that will give lessons during the weekends,

so that I don't have to miss any classes at college.

The woman wants to take driving lessons during the weekends, so weekends has been written in the space.

Now we shall begin.

You should answer the questions as you listen, because you will not hear the recording a second time.

Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.

Hi, Zach.

I heard you passed your driving test.

Congratulations.

Thanks, Olivia.

I passed just last week.

It feels great to be independent and driving on my own.

I really want to take driving lessons, but I haven't been able to find a driving school that will give lessons during the weekends,

so that I don't have to miss any classes at college.

The driving school that I used was brilliant and really flexible with their teaching hours.

It's really close to the school.

The address is 67 Kings Road.

That's 67 King's Road.

Oh, that's perfect.

I don't like the idea of driving around busy streets.

Did your teacher make you drive in urban areas or did he mainly teach you on roads in the countryside?

My teacher said that I had to learn on both in order to become a good and experienced driver.

We would start in the city centre and then drive north above the city.

He sounds like a good teacher.

Would you mind giving me his contact details so I can ask him for lessons? Of course.

My mother's friend Daniel Smith referred me to him.

His name is Alan Sutcliffe.

Could you spell the surname please?

S-U-T-C-L-I-F-F-E Thanks for helping me out.

I'll give him a call tomorrow.

I don't know if I should learn in a manual or automatic car.

How do I decide?

I wasn't sure which type of car to learn in either.

In the end, I chose to learn in a manual car, because once you've learnt how to drive manually, you can drive automatic as well.

Most cars on the road are automatic nowadays.

Okay, I think I'll learn with the manual car too then.

Hopefully the teacher will be able to give me lessons in the evenings after school.

It would be much better if you take the lessons during the day.

It will be far easier for you to learn when there is enough daylight to clearly see everything going on around you.

But you need to be an experienced driver to drive safely at night.

How frustrating.

I was hoping I wouldn't have to take lessons during the weekends.

You're right though.

Safety comes first.

Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.

Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.

Speaking of safety, you should wait until summer to start learning.

It's really difficult and dangerous to drive in the wind

and rain as a learner So you should definitely wait until the weather is sunny and dry OK,

that's perfect actually It will give me some time to save up some money to pay for the lessons

Tell me about it I had to work for months before

I had enough money saved up It was worth all the work when I finally got my driving licence though

The whole process is so expensive.

How much did it cost you in the end?

Well, each half hour lesson cost $30 and then the final test cost $50.

In total, it cost me about $300.

Gosh, it's pretty expensive.

How did you find the test?

Was it really difficult?

No, it wasn't too bad and the man was really calm and friendly.

I knew that I would have to perform two parking manoeuvres during the test, so I practised them a lot beforehand and that really helped.

The test used to last 40 minutes, but it changed a bit.

For the first 20 minutes of the test,

he gave me directions and I had to just drive around and then the last 10 minutes was for demonstrating the manoeuvres.

So the test is 30 minutes in total.

OK, great.

I'll remember that.

Do you have any more advice?

It's really good to practice driving a lot outside of driving lessons as well.

Whenever my parents were running errands on the weekends, I would offer to drive them.

My driving teacher also told me to buy a notebook to write down everything that I've learnt in it, like a diary Ha ha!

That sounds boring, but I'll do it if it helps I found it really useful Before my test,

I read through everything I had written down

and it reminded me of a lot of things

that I had forgotten about It's really helpful for the theory test as well

because there's so much information to remember for it That's great, Zach.

Thanks for your help.

No problem.

See you at school.

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।
