Good morning, Stretton Festival Box Office.
17
How can I help you?

Oh, hello.
19
My family and I are on holiday in the area,
20
and we've seen some posters about the festival this week.
21
Could you tell me about some of the events, please? Of course.
22
First of all, are there still tickets available for the jazz band on Saturday?
23
There are, but only £15.
24
The £12 seats have all been sold.
25
OK, and the venue is the school, isn't it?
26
Yes, that's right.

The secondary school.

Make sure you don't go to the primary school by mistake.

And there's an additional performer who isn't mentioned on the posters.

Carolyn Hart is going to play with the band.
31
Oh, I think I've heard her on the radio.
32
Doesn't she play the oboe or flute or something?
33
Yes, the flute.
34
She usually plays with symphony orchestras,
35
and apparently this is her first time with a jazz band.
36
Well, I'd certainly like to hear her.
37
Then the next thing I want to ask about is the duck races.
38
I saw a poster beside a river.
39
What are they exactly?
40
Well, you buy a yellow plastic duck,
41
or as many as you like, they're a pound each.
42
And you write your name on each one.
43
There'll be several races, depending on the number of ducks taking part.
44
And John Stevens, a champion swimmer who lives locally,
45
is going to start the races.
46
All the ducks will be launched into the river at the back of the cinema.
47
Then they'll float along the river for 500 metres,
48
as far as the railway bridge.
49
And are there any prizes?
50
Yes.
51
The first duck in each race to arrive at the finishing
52
line wins its owner free tickets for the concert on the last night of the festival.
53
You said you can buy a duck.
54
I'm sure my children will both want one.
55
They're on sale at a stall in the market.
56
You can't miss it.
57
It's got an enormous sign showing a couple of ducks.
58
Okay, I'll go there this afternoon.
59
I remember walking past there yesterday.
60
Now, could you tell me something about the flower show, please?
61
Well, admission is free and the show is being held in Bythwaite Hall.
62
Sorry, how do you spell that?
63
B-Y-T-H-W-A-I-T-E.
64
Bythwaite.
65
Is it easy to find?
66
I'm not very familiar with the town yet.
67
Oh, you won't have any problem.
68
It's right in the centre of Stretton.
69
It's the only old building in the town,
70
so it's easy to recognise.
71
I know it.
72
I presume it's open all day?
73
Yes, but if you'd like to see the prizes being awarded for the best flowers,
74
you'll need to be there at five o'clock.
75
The prizes are being given by a famous actor, Kevin Shapless.
76
He lives nearby and gets involved in a lot of community events.
77
Gosh, I've seen him on TV.
78
I'll definitely go to the prize giving.
79
Right.
80
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
81
you have some time to look at questions 8 to 10.
82
Now listen and answer questions 8 to 10.
83
I've seen a list of plays that are being performed this week,
84
and I'd like to know which are suitable for my children,
85
and which ones my husband and I might go to.
86
How old are your children?
87
Five and seven.
88
What about The Mystery of Muldoon?
89
That's aimed at five to ten-year-olds.
90
So if I take my children,
91
I can expect them to enjoy it more than I do?
92
I think so.
93
If you'd like something for yourself and your husband,
94
and leave your children with a babysitter,
95
you might like to see Fire and Flood.
96
It's about events that really happened in Stretton 200 years ago,
97
and children might find it rather frightening.
98
Oh, thanks for the warning.
99
And finally, what about Silly Sailor?
100
That's a comedy, and it's for young and old.
101
In fact, it won an award in the Stretton Drama Festival a couple of months ago.
102
Okay.
103
Well, goodbye and thanks for all the information.
104
I'm looking forward to the festival.
105
Goodbye.

Informazioni su Questa Lezione

In questa lezione, gli studenti avranno l'opportunità di praticare l'ascolto attivo attraverso una conversazione relativa a un festival locale. Gli ascoltatori saranno esposti a vocaboli e frasi utili, mentre imparano a rispondere a domande specifiche basate sulle informazioni udite. La pratica dell'ascolto non solo migliora la comprensione, ma consente anche di affinare le tecniche di shadow speech, perfette per migliorare la pronuncia e l'intonazione in inglese.

Vocabolario e Frasi Chiave

  • Tickets disponibili - Biglietti disponibili
  • Jazz band - Gruppo musicale jazz
  • Races - Gare
  • Venue - Luogo
  • Flute - Flauto
  • Plastic duck - Anatra di plastica
  • Prize - Premio
  • Festival - Festival

Consigli per la Pratica

Per ottenere il massimo da questa lezione, si consiglia agli studenti di utilizzare la tecnica del shadowspeaks durante l'ascolto. Questa tecnica di shadowing in inglese consiste nel ripetere immediatamente dopo che l'oratore ha finito una frase, cercando di imitare il loro ritmo e intonazione. Poiché il video è di un'andatura moderata, focalizzatevi sull'ascolto attento e sulla ripetizione delle frasi, concentrandosi su suoni e accenti particolari.

Annotate le frasi che trovate più difficili e ascoltatele ripetutamente, finché non riuscite a pronunciarle correttamente. Non abbiate paura di fare errori; il shadow speak è un ottimo modo per migliorare le vostre abilità senza la pressione di una conversazione dal vivo. Continuate a praticare e noterete progressi nella vostra fluentazione e nella vostra capacità di comprendere l'inglese parlato.

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.
