Hello everyone, it's your IELTS tutor Jack and welcome back to another episode of the IELTS Plus English podcast.
2
Today's topic is a serious one.
3
Crime and punishment is actually a topic I really enjoy.
4
You know, when.. looking at Netflix, or YouTube videos, I do enjoy real crime.
5
You know, perhaps that will help me today.

8
or expressions connected to the topic if you're in korea come
9
and check naiva cafe which is Yonkak Yonkak Jack's English and become part of the community there.
10
So let's not waste time, let's go straight into part one.
11
We'll do part one and part two as usual.
12
And I think I'm going to do something a little different for part three today.
13
So we'll look at that a little bit later.
14
Part one, question one, is your country a safe country?
15
I am from England and I would say that it's a relatively safe country not great
16
It really depends on where you live.
17
If you live in the inner city, like in london
18
and some parts of london some parts of birmingham it can
19
be quite dangerous there are assaults stabbings various types of crime vandalism but if you live in the countryside
20
generally you can avoid that type of behavior that type of crime Okay, another part one and then we'll move on to part two.
21
So What do you think the most common crime in your country is?
22
The most common crime I didn't...
23
To be honest, I have absolutely no idea.
24
But from my personal experience, I know a lot of my friends and colleagues committed the crime drink driving.
25
This is where, of course, you drink alcohol and drive somewhere.
26
And, you know, when I played golf, a lot of people would finish their golf, have a drink and drive home.
27
So I would say that that is a very common type of crime.
28
So straight on to part two.
29
Two minutes on the clock.
30
Let's just get that prepared.
31
And tell me about a time you broke a rule.
32
Oh, dear.
33
Okay, this will be interesting.
34
And nothing's coming to my head, but probably it would be something related to school. So...
35
Yeah, let's go ahead with that.
36
I'd like to tell you about a time that I broke a rule at school.
37
- Yeah.
38
When I was young, when I went to high school, of course, you have to go to school every day.
39
It's mandatory.
40
But when I got into the sixth form, which is when you're 17 and 18, I just skipped a lot of classes.
41
It wasn't the whole time, but there was a particular period where I just kind of realized, what's the point in going to school?
42
So I went through this period of skipping a lot of class.
43
Yeah.
44
Let me tell you a little more about this rule that I broke.
45
As I said, you do have to go to class and there's a registration period at the start of class.
46
I would come to school in the morning, register for school, but then I would go out before I had to attend any classes.
47
I remember clearly coming home is sort of a 20 minute walk home.
48
On the way home, it was 9 .30.
49
I'd pick up a frozen pizza from the shop, go home and I'd have that for lunch a little bit later.
50
they caught me going home and I got punished.
51
It wasn't actually a very severe punishment and I think that's because I was 17 or 18.
52
So the punishment was to serve detention.
53
which means I had to stay after school for about an hour
54
or an hour and a half
55
and I can't remember I think I had to write an essay or something like that so not a big deal
56
But so in my opinion, it wasn't a serious crime that I committed or it wasn't a serious rule,
57
but one that I look back at now and think that was a silly thing to do.
58
Okay, I did...
59
do that it was true I did spend there was a period in in sixth form
60
which is when as I said it's when you're 17 or 18 in high school and
61
I did skip a lot of class and I did eat pizza and it was wonderful, but it was a stupid thing to do.
62
And I learnt my lesson.
63
So of course, this kind of question is pretty easy because you can draw on your experience.
64
Now let's move on to part three.
65
I haven't prepared these, but I want you to try something with me now.
66
When I answer a part three question, I have four sections.
67
You've got direct answer.
68
Explain.
69
Example.
70
conclude direct answer explain example conclude i consistently do this what i want you to do is
71
while you're listening listen for those four sections the conclusion is optional
72
so i may or may not do that but let's see how we go Okay, first question: what is the best way for police to keep neighbourhoods safe?
73
I think the best way for police to keep neighborhoods safe is to have a presence in the neighborhood.
74
What I mean is police should have at least a few police men
75
or women patrolling the neighborhood and showing that they are there, making sure criminals know that there's a police presence.
76
- Yeah.
77
In England, you can spend a lot of time in neighborhoods.
78
I remember from my childhood this is true.
79
And you just don't see a police presence.
80
This means that you feel like you can commit a crime and get away with it.
81
So I would say that the best way to keep neighbourhoods safe is to have a police presence.
82
Did you hear the four sections?
83
It was pretty clear.
84
I tried to show pauses in between.
85
So hopefully you could hear how I constructed that answer.
86
Let's do another.
87
What do you think makes people commit acts of violent crime?
88
I think boredom...
89
makes people commit a lot of acts of crime Of course, it depends on the type of crime.
90
I'm talking more about vandalism.
91
sort of petty crimes that are not so serious, the ones that come to my mind are like...
92
As I said, vandalism, so painting on walls or destroying property, maybe stealing things, causing trouble around the neighbourhood.
93
um I often saw this when I was in high school.
94
I had a lot of classmates that were bored.
95
There was nothing to do.
96
There was no clubs to join.
97
So not my friends personally, but I did know people that would commit these kind of petty crimes in the neighborhood through boredom.
98
So yeah, I would say boredom is the main cause of this kind of crime.
99
Now, I've made a mistake here.
100
I don't know if I read this correctly or maybe I didn't even read this, but it said, what do you think makes people commit acts of violent crime?
101
So my answer is useless, but of course I just missed the word violent.
102
at least I talked on the topic of crime
103
but I would change my answer if I had noticed the word violent
104
so apologies for that but I hope you heard the four sections again.
105
Now number three of part three let's make sure I read this properly.
106
Do you think that video games encourage young people to commit crimes?
107
Okay I'm clear I heard it I understood.
108
Yes, I think video games can cause young people to commit crimes.
109
Yeah.
110
There's a lot of violence in these games, and.. very often
111
when you're seeing so much violence on a day -to -day basis, it normalizes that thing
112
so in this case it normalizes violence it makes it seem like a kind of day -to -day thing
113
and almost acceptable I used to play a game called GTA,
114
Grand Theft Auto, which is where you literally attack people, you break into their cars, you...
115
You deal with drugs and gangs and all these awful things.
116
It's a wonderful game.
117
It's a very deep game with an incredible world. But...
118
you get so used to seeing that that it almost normalizes those activities in real life.
119
I'm not saying I did those things, but I could see how it could happen.
120
Good, okay, just to go through that one more time, I had three things in there.
121
The direct answer: yes.
122
Explain where I talked about normalizing crime.
123
And then example: I talked about a video game, Grand Theft Auto.
124
So, a little bit different today.
125
I wanted you to understand.
126
I consistently structure my answers the same.
127
If you go back over all my episodes, I do structure and I use...
128
my methods that I use in IELTS Plus.
129
So, and you can too.

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.
