Test 1.
6
There are four parts to the test.
7
You will hear each part twice.
8
For each part of the test,
9
there will be time for you to look through the questions and time for you to check your answers.
10
Write your answers on the question paper.
11
You will have six minutes at the end of the test to copy your answers onto the answer sheet.
12
The recording will now be stopped.
13
Please ask any questions now because you must not speak during the test.
14
Now open your question paper and look at part one.
15
There are seven questions in this part.
16
For each question, there are three pictures and a short recording.
17
Choose the correct picture and put a tick in the box below it.
18
Before we start, here is an example.
19
Where is the girl's hat?
20
Where's your new hat, Sally?
21
I hope you haven't left it on the school bus.
22
Don't worry, Mum.
23
I put it in my school bag because I was too hot.
24
Are you sure?
25
I can't see it there.
26
You probably dropped it in the road somewhere.
27
Oh, here it is, hanging in the hall.
28
I forgot to take it this morning.
29
The first picture is correct,
30
so there is a tick in box A.
31
Look at the three pictures for question one now.
32
Now we are ready to start.
33
Listen carefully.
34
You will hear each recording twice.
35
One.
36
What was damaged in the storm?
37
Was the roof of your house all right after the storm, Anna?
38
I saw a workman there with a ladder today.
39
I'd had the roof repaired recently,
40
so that wasn't a problem.
41
The workman was putting some new glass in an upstairs window.
42
I think a branch from a tree broke it when it fell off in the wind.
43
I was quite lucky it didn't damage my car,
44
which was parked right under the tree.
45
Now listen again.

56
What present does the man decide to take?
57
My boss has invited me to dinner at his house tomorrow night,
58
but I don't know what sort of present I should take.
59
I suppose flowers are best,
60
but it's not a good time of year for them.
61
And people always take chocolates.
62
That's really boring.
63
What about a plant?
64
I think I'd be happier with the boring chocolates than with a plant, actually.
65
But thanks for the ideas, anyway.
66
Now listen again.

77
Which is the woman's jacket?
78
Excuse me, has anyone found my jacket?
79
I left it on the plane.
80
It's grey, with two buttons down the front,
81
and one on each sleeve.
82
Anything in the pockets, madam?
83
I don't think so.
84
Yes, I've got it here.

Now listen again.

94
Hello, this is the travel agency returning your call.
95
You left a message about the holiday you've booked,
96
asking which sports are included in the cost.
97
There is an extra charge for windsurfing,
98
but if you want to play golf,
99
that's free for all hotel guests,
100
and horse riding is also available at no extra charge,
101
which is good because I think you were especially interested in that.
102
Let me know if I can help you with any other information.

Informazioni su questa lezione

In questa lezione, esplorerai le abilità di ascolto e comprensione attraverso il Cambridge Preliminary English Test. Ti concentrerai sulla prima parte del test di ascolto, dove dovrai ascoltare brevi registrazioni e associare le informazioni presentate a immagini specifiche. Questo esercizio ti aiuterà a migliorare la tua capacità di individuare dettagli essenziali e rafforzerà la tua comprensione dell'inglese parlato, un passo fondamentale per poter partecipare alla pratica di conversazione in inglese.

Vocabolario e frasi chiave

  • hat: cappello
  • storm: tempesta
  • damaged: danneggiato
  • window: finestra
  • roof: tetto
  • workman: operaio
  • branch: ramo
  • car: auto

Consigli per la pratica

Per massimizzare i benefici di questa lezione, è fondamentale praticare shadowspeak mentre ascolti le registrazioni. Poiché la velocità della registrazione nel test è moderata, puoi facilmente seguire e ripetere le frasi in tempo reale. Ecco alcuni suggerimenti per una pratica efficiente:

  • Ascolta attentamente la registrazione e abbina le immagini, cercando di comprendere le informazioni chiave.
  • Ripeti le frasi ascoltate immediatamente dopo averle sentite. Utilizza l’approccio dello shadow speech per imitare l’intonazione e il ritmo dell’oratore.
  • Fai una pausa dopo ogni domanda per riflettere e rispondere mentalmente prima di controllare le opzioni offerte.
  • Registra le tue risposte mentre pratichi. Questo ti aiuterà a notare eventuali aree di miglioramento nella pronuncia e nella fluidità.
  • Pratica regolarmente utilizzando un shadowing site per accedere a materiali simili basati su situazioni reali e migliorare ulteriormente le tue abilità di ascolto e conversazione.

Ricorda, l’obiettivo è non solo ascoltare, ma anche parlare e migliorare continuamente le tue competenze linguistiche.

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.
