In the first part of the exam, I will ask you some personal questions.

First, I'd like to ask about your family.
14
Do you have a big or a small family?
15
I've got a big family in my immediate family.
16
We've got eight members including me, my parents and my five siblings two sisters and three brothers.
17
And how much time do you spend with your family?
18
I spent roughly four or five hours of the weekends with my family to talk about the activities we do.
19
When together we sometimes hang out in a restaurant, sometimes I ask them to come over in order to chit chat or have some fun.
20
And how has your family influenced you?
21
Honestly, family has played a very significant role in my life.
22
As I believe family ties have shaped my character and behaviour.
23
On top of that, being among my family members has contributed to a better understanding of the world and myself.
24
Now let's move on to talk about pens and pencils.
25
Do you usually use a pen or a pencil?
26
I prefer pens over pencils because they are easier to use and my writing would be indelible.
27
Plus, when I need to jot my lessons down on a notebook, I find writing with a pen more convenient and faster.
28
Do you think using pencils or pens gives an impressive writing layout?
29
Not really.
30
I think what makes writing impress the reader is just the arrangement of the words and sentences.
31
Therefore, pens or pencils are just a medium for bringing a thought into existence.

And how would you feel if someone gave you a pen as a gift?
33
I would feel over the moon if someone buys me a pen, since it is a unique choice as a If my memory helps,
34
some years ago my husband gave me a set of very
35
beautiful pens with a charming box as my birthday gift that always reminds me of the memorable moments of those years.
36
Now let's move on to talk about history.
37
When you were a child, did you enjoy learning about history?
38
Actually not.
39
The historic classes were incredibly boring for me.
40
I think it's because I couldn't see the point in learning obscure figures, monuments or ancient sites.
41
My attitude totally changed.
42
I love history.
43
Have you ever been to a museum to learn about history?
44
Yes, of course.
45
It was two years ago when I paid a visit to a contemporary art museum.
46
As I am a big fan of history, I enjoy visiting historical places and museums.
47
When was the last time you read a book about history?
48
- Thank you.
49
A book about the history, approximately two months ago.
50
I studied some articles about the Native American tribes
51
that helped me to gain a lot of new information about the history of those territories.
52
Okay, this is the end of the first part.
53
Now I'm going to give you a topic and I'd like you to talk about it for two minutes.
54
Before you talk, you'll have one minute to think about what you are going to say
55
and you can make notes if you wish.
56
Do you understand?
57
Yes.
58
Okay, here is paper.
59
Thank you.
60
And your one minute of preparation starts now.
61
Okay, your one minute is over.
62
Now you can start speaking.
63
Okay.
64
I think the most significant occasion in everyone's life is marriage.
65
which is full of promises and commitments.
66
By getting married, couples promise to believe in each other and be the biggest supporter,
67
encourager and all around fun of one another.
68
This is to say that they promise to be grateful for what they offer
69
and forgive one another for what they knowingly or unknowingly have done.
70
If my memory helps, the same kind of promise and commitment also happened to me some years ago.
71
I was always well aware of my responsibility and commitments which led to
72
sacred kind of respect toward my husband in this mutual relationship.
73
That was a promise I had made and in order to preserve that I should have committed myself to be loyal,
74
honest, patient, obedient and easygoing.
75
During all these years I have been on my wards and haven't broken my promises.
76
Nevertheless, unfortunately nowadays the main problem many couples have is that they don't know what the word "commitment" means.
77
You know, when the couple are not committed to each other,
78
they may fail to put enough effort the time this could weaken the connection so much and the divorce would be inevitable.
79
As a result, lack of commitment can cause a downfall in a marriage
80
and would also have a serious impact into the relationship.
81
Because that's Um...
82
leads to issues related to trust, lying, as well as other forms of damage in a marriage.
83
Overall, keeping your promise is a lot more important than you might think, since breaking a promise.
84
Thank you.
85
This is the end of the second part.
86
Please hand it back.
87
Thank you.
88
So we've been talking about an occasion where you promised someone
89
and I'd now like to ask you some questions related to this.
90
Do you think people are less committed to goals now than in the past?
91
Well...
92
Let me think about it.
93
Hmm.
94
Okay.
95
I don't believe so.
96
There are still many people who have a passion for a specific aim
97
and put all the time and energy into it so that they can make good progress.
98
This is because they enjoy committing themselves to staying focused on their goals and winning the respect of other people.
99
So my answer to this question is no. he and what is the importance call commitment to the work
100
That's a very good question.
101
For any company or organization, the employee's commitment to work is of a great consequence
102
because it's a two -way street for both the employee
103
and the company as they can all make a profit out of the business.
104
Moreover, if a person is committed to his or her work, they will feel more satisfied with whatever job they are doing and
105
I think this will result in a better function at work.
106
Other than that, there would be a higher chance for them to have crowning professional achievements a better career path.
107
And has global and social networking made all people to be more committed or or vice versa.
108
I suppose that they have made people show more commitment.
109
to the job they have.
110
As global connectivity brings the world closer together
111
and high -quality internet access enables people to present the best services to the world,
112
In addition, social network competition has caused many companies to
113
provide a better customer service in order to gain market share or for the business to take off.
114
And how can we teach young children to be committed to their goals and never give up?
115
That's a very controversial topic.
116
but I think the first step would be to teach children to set goals and start working towards it.
117
We can teach children by helping them think of a fun goal they could achieve within a short time.
118
For example, they could finish a book they started or complete a craft project.
119
Because little goals are the best way to get children moving forward, big goals.
120
After that, the next step would be to develop the very important life skills called commitment.
121
You know, commitment is one of those character traits that grows little by little as we encourage our kids
122
to step out and try new challenges.
123
So, we can start it by some simple tasks.
124
For example, getting them involved in daily household chores or having them take care of pets.
125
or working together on a big home project and teaching them a sport or an instrument or some other activities like that.
126
Thank you so much.
127
This is the end of the speaking test.

Con questa guida e le frasi chiave, puoi migliorare la pronuncia inglese e la tua confidenza nel parlare. La tecnica di shadowing in inglese ti arricchirà non solo linguisticamente, ma ti aiuterà anche a costruire una maggiore comprensione culturale.

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.
