I take the bus near my house and then, I had to take the subway.
22
Which do you like best, the morning or the afternoon?
23
I like the afternoon because you can chill yourself, you can have time for yourself because the morning is too busy. You have to go to school you have to go to work. So, the afternoon, you can relax and enjoy yourself.
24
Thank you. Now, I'd like each of you to talk on your own about something. I'm going to give each of you a photograph and I'd like you to talk about it.
25
Roberto, here is your photograph. It shows someone learning how to do something.
26
Simone, you just listen.
27
Roberto, please tell us what you can see in the photograph.
28
OK. So, there's two girls who are following a recipe on the iPad and they are in a kitchen, and probably, they're making a mess because you can see all the eggs on the table. So, they are having fun.
29
They are working together. And one of the girls has a dress a white and black dress. One of the girls has curly hair and a t-shirt and some jeans.
30
Talk about other things you can see in the photograph.
31
So, they're probably making a cake because, with the flour and eggs, usually, you make a cake. There is a salt or a sugar. And, yeah, they're in a kitchen.
32
And here, there are some shelves with some food.
33
Thank you. Simone, here is your photograph. It shows someone at home after school.
34
Roberto, you just listen.
35
Simone, please tell us what you can see in the photograph.
36
So, in the photograph, I can see a boy who is watching a football match.
37
Probably his favourite football team is playing right now.
38
He's alone at home because nobody is sitting next to him.
39
He's in his living room, probably.
40
He's wearing trousers and a shirt, a white shirt.
41
There is a table in the middle of the living room.
42
And on the table, there are some cards, a candle, a pen, papers.
43
I think he's having a really good time because I think he really likes watching football team playing.
44
Thank you. Can I have the booklet, please?
45
Now, in this part of the test you're going to talk about something together for about two minutes.
46
I'm going to describe a situation to you.
47
Some students from a small village school are going on a trip to their capital city.
48
Here are some of the activities they could do there. Talk together about the different activities they could do in their capital city, and say which would be the most interesting. All right? Now, talk together.
49
So, I think going to the gallery could be an option.
50
- It could be boring at the same time - But maybe it's a boring, a bit boring.
51
What about visiting an ancient castle?
52
Yeah, I think that could be nice because you get to know more about the culture of the city, watching an ancient monument.
53
- Or maybe also going to the stadium? - Yeah, we could also go to the stadium.
54
Because it's more entertaining. You see more action Yeah, they can have fun, they can eat together.
55
But maybe going to the football stadium, you can do that in every city while, I don't know, having a visit of the city with the bus you can't do it everywhere because every city is different.
56
It gives you the opportunity to see the city better.
57
But what about the transport museum?
58
I think that could be an interesting visit because you get to see old things which are maybe typical from the city.
59
And what about the going shopping, going to the markets?
60
I think that could be nice because you get to buy stuff which is typical from the place. They could buy gift for their friends, for their family.
61
Or maybe, also going to the zoo. But maybe, I don't know. Because there are zoos everywhere, in every city. So, you can't learn more about the city you're visiting. So, I think the bus.
62
Yeah, the bus visit is the most unique thing to do. Yeah.
63
Thank you. Roberto, would you like to have more school trips?
64
Yes. Especially in interesting cities in Italy, big cities like Milan maybe a bit more often. Milan, Genova or Rome, which is-- What about you, Simone?
65
Yeah, I would like to have more trips, more school trips, probably abroad so you can understand better different cultures you can learn another language and you're going to have fun with friends in another place.
66
What do you need to take when you go on a trip?
67
I think you have to bring a bag or a school backpack.
68
But you have to bring food to here and something to drink because probably the place you visit is in the middle of nowhere and there aren't shops to buy things.
69
And then, you have to bring your sunglasses if the weather is sunny.
70
Do you prefer to go on trips with your friends or with your family?
71
I prefer going with friends because we can hang out we can have really good time together.
72
With a family, you go to a museum, to the stadium, to the cinema, but it's boring.
73
Do you agree, Roberto?
74
Yeah, I think it depends because with your friends, you can do whatever you like, you can go wherever you want, while with a family you have to follow your parents.
75
What do you think is the best time of year to visit a city?
76
I think, probably, even if you're young, summer, because you go to the beach and you can have a good time at the beach, you can go in the ocean.
77
So it's really nice and, but maybe there's too warm.
78
So, in the winter. In the winter some cities are not good to visit in the winter because, like New York it's way too cold to visit it.
79
So, I think the best option is summer, or maybe also, fall.
80
OK, and which do you think is more interesting visiting the countryside or visiting a city?
81
So, I think that the city, there's more stuff to do. It's better. And it's easier.
82
More stuff in a smaller space. Yeah.
83
While in the countryside you're in the middle of - nowhere and you don't have much to do. - You can't do anything.
84
And I think it's easier also to stay in the city because there's shops - where you can buy things you want. - But I think if you want to relax yourself you have to go to the countryside so you can hear the sound of the nature and you can relax.
85
Yeah. Thank you. That is the end of the test.
86
Thank you.

Perché praticare il parlato con questo video?
Praticare il parlato è fondamentale per avere successo nell'apprendimento dell'inglese. Questo video offre un contesto reale attraverso il test di conversazione B1 Preliminary for Schools, dove i due ragazzi, Roberto e Simone, mostrano come interagire in situazioni quotidiane. Grazie a questa interazione, gli studenti possono immergersi nel linguaggio vivo, migliorando la loro fluidità e comprensione. Utilizzando un metodo chiamato shadowspeak, gli allievi possono ripetere le frasi sentite nel video, contribuendo ad approfondire non solo il vocabolario, ma anche le strutture grammaticali e le espressioni idiomatiche. Praticare in questo modo, sfruttando il shadowing in inglese, aiuta a costruire la confidenza necessaria per parlare in modo spontaneo e naturale.
Grammatica & Espressioni nel contesto
Nel video, sono evidenti diverse strutture grammaticali e espressioni chiave. Ecco alcune che possono essere particolarmente utili:
- Domande aperte: Frasi come "Where do you live?" e "How old are you?" sono esempi di come formulare domande per ottenere informazioni importanti.
- Uso del presente semplice: Le risposte di Roberto e Simone usano spesso il presente semplice per esprimere verità generali, come "I live with my mum and dad."
- Frasi descrittive: Quando Roberto descrive la foto, utilizza frasi come "There are two girls..." che sono fondamentali per sviluppare le capacità di descrizione.
- Esprimere opinioni: Simone dice "I like the afternoon because..." per spiegare le sue preferenze. Questa struttura è cruciale per discutere opinioni personali.
Trappole comuni di pronuncia
Durante il video, emergono alcune parole e frasi che potrebbero presentare difficoltà di pronuncia per gli studenti:
- "photograph": è importante mettere l'accento sulla prima sillaba, altrimenti potrebbe essere frainteso.
- "kitchen": assicurarsi che la 'k' sia pronunciata chiaramente e che la 'ch' non venga confusa con suoni italiani simili.
- Frasi lunghe: Quando si praticano frasi più lunghe, studenti possono avere difficoltà a mantenere il ritmo. Utilizzare il shadow speech per esercitarsi aiuta a migliorare la fluidità.
Praticare queste strutture linguistiche e affrontare le sfide di pronuncia attraverso shadowing in inglese può portare a un miglioramento significativo delle capacità di parlato.
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Frasi relative who / which + frase — un’informazione in più su una persona o una cosa | things which are · stuff which is · Rome, which is |
| Superlativi the -est / the most … — il massimo o il minimo di un gruppo | the most interesting · the most unique · the best |
| Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — qualcosa che succede adesso o in questo periodo | are following · are working · they're probably making |
| Obbligo: must / have to / need to dire che qualcosa è necessario | had to take · have to go · have to bring |
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.
