Aptos Listening Part 2, Test 5.
2
Four people are talking about a charity running event.
3
Match the speaker A, B, C or D with the correct statements 1 to 6.
4
You can listen to each recording twice.
5
Speaker A.
6
Well, it's held every year, you know.
7
The first time I did it, it was a mistake.
8
I just wasn't ready and I had to give up halfway through.
9
Very embarrassing.
10
Luckily, there weren't too many of my friends watching me that year.
11
I've since got myself more organised
12
and I do a proper training routine with the result that last time I got round in my quickest ever time.
13
And that's made me feel pretty good about myself, to be honest.
14
Not least
15
because I raised a fair bit of cash for the charity
16
as well as having a great time on the day and generally keeping fit.
17
Speak of me.
18
It's very important that this kind of event takes place
19
because it's the only way serious sums of money are gonna get raised for the charity.
20
I have to admit to being a little frustrated in some ways, though.
21
Like, you're supposed to be sent your race number beforehand, so you know where to stand for the start on the day.
22
But this year, nobody had received theirs.
23
I mean, that's typical of how badly the events run.
24
Not important, maybe, but it's enough to put some people off taking part.
25
Anyway, it was great to see the spectators out in good numbers.
26
They can always be relied on to show up.
27
Speaker C.
28
It's a wonderful event, well organized, and a lot of money is generated for a worthwhile charity.
29
I took part for the first time two years ago, and my friends who'd come along gave me a big cheer, which I wasn't expecting.
30
When it was time for this year's race, I didn't feel I was fit enough, so I decided to give it a miss.
31
Then felt guilty and decided at the last minute to enter after all.
32
It was a big mistake, because I felt horrible all the way, out of breath, cramp the lot.
33
I felt a fool, though I did still manage to meet the money-raising target.
34
Speaker D.
35
My friend encouraged me to do it, and we did our best to get fit before the big day.
36
I didn't want to crash out before the finish
37
because I'd set myself a goal in terms of the sum I wanted to raise and didn't want to let people down.
38
There was pride at stake too, I guess.
39
It must be incredibly complicated in terms of organisation with
40
so many runners and such an enormous band of spectators along the route.
41
I just couldn't believe the size of the crowd.
42
It really gives you a boost.
43
I was relieved to finish in one piece and I want to do it again next year.
44
Now listen again.
45
Speaker A.
46
Well, it's held every year, you know.
47
The first time I did it, it was a mistake.

Guida passo-passo al Shadowing

Per affrontare la difficoltà di questo video ed esercitare il shadow speak, ecco una guida pratica:

  1. Ascolta attentamente la registrazione: Inizia ascoltando l'audio una volta per comprendere l'argomento generale e il contesto delle discussioni.
  2. Segmenta l'audio: Dividi il dialogo in brevi sezioni. Puoi fermarti dopo ogni relatore per prendere appunti sulle frasi chiave.
  3. Ripeti ad alta voce: Usa la tecnica del shadowing in inglese. Dopo aver ascoltato una sezione, ripeti immediatamente le parole del relatore, cercando di imitare la pronuncia e l’intonazione.
  4. Fai pratica regolare: Per migliorare la tua pronuncia inglese, ascolta e ripeti il dialogo più volte, idealmente ogni giorno per alcuni minuti.
  5. Riflettici sopra: Dopo aver completato il shadowing, rifletti sui contenuti. Prova a raccontare in inglese la tua esperienza o un evento simile, utilizzando le frasi che hai appreso.

Questa pratica di conversazione in inglese non solo rafforza le tue capacità di ascolto, ma aiuta anche a costruire fiducia nella tua abilità di parlare fluentemente. Attraverso il shadowspeak, potrai notare miglioramenti significativi nel tuo modo di comunicare in inglese.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
