Test 7 There are four parts to the test.

You will hear each part twice.

We will now stop for a moment.
4
Please ask any questions now because you must not speak during the test.
5
Part 1 Now look at the instructions for Part 1.
6
For each question, choose the correct answer.
7
Look at Question 1.
8
1 Have you thought what job you would like to do?
9
Mmm, I think that as I'm a very sociable person, I could become a shop assistant.
10
You'd be good at that.
11
Maybe, but my mum says that kind of work can be quite tiring, as I will have to deal with difficult customers sometimes.
12
Why don't you become a teacher?
13
You're very good at explaining things to others.
14
Good idea.
15
But I like better to work as a nurse.
16
I enjoy looking after people who are sick.
17
So that's what I'll do.
18
OK, but I still think that being a teacher would be an excellent job for you.
19
Now, listen again.
20
Have you thought what job you would like to do?

29
Okay, but I still think that being a teacher would be an excellent job for you.
30
2. What will the boy order?
31
How about ordering a pizza from the place down the road?
32
You can order a small pizza if you like, but I want only a salad.
33
Why?
34
Are you on a diet?
35
No, but I don't like the pizza from this place.
36
I only prefer their burgers.
37
So, do you want to order burgers and chips for both of us?
38
Now that I think, the last time I ate a burger from that place, it wasn't well cooked.
39
So just a salad.
40
OK, then.
41
I'll take my first choice.
42
Now, listen again.

Three.
55
Which activity does the girl not do anymore?
56
I want to start a new hobby.
57
I was thinking about table tennis.
58
I've seen you playing and I think it's quite interesting.
59
Although I've given up, as I don't have enough time to play anymore, I still think that it's worth trying it.
60
I joined the school's volleyball team three weeks ago and I spend my whole time in practising for next Sunday's match.
61
It's a shame.
62
You were pretty good.
63
Do you still have guitar lessons or have you stopped them as well?
64
No, I didn't need to as guitar lessons are once a week and last only an hour.
65

4. What does the boy want to buy tomorrow?
74
Hi, Maria.
75
I'm calling you to ask you to go shopping tomorrow morning.
76
I need you to help me buy a new coat, as next month I'll be going on a school trip to Iceland.
77
I had also thought to buy a new scarf and gloves, but my mum said to take my brother's ones.
78
Although I like his scarf and I'll take it with me, his gloves aren't my size.
79
Mum said that she will buy me a new pair that she had seen online.
80
So, please can we meet tomorrow at the big department store after school?
81
You always help me buy clothes that suit me fine.
82
Now, listen again.
83
Hi Maria.
84

92
Which is the boy's sister?
93
Who is your sister in this photo?
94
Is she the one with long, dark hair?
95
No. My sister is short hair and she also wears glasses.
96
Fortunately, in this picture, she doesn't wear this terrible hat that she always wears during the summer months.
97
I tell her that it doesn't suit her, and that it's very old -fashioned, but she keeps saying that it protects her head from sun.
98
Anyway, I can see her now, and she's very beautiful.
99
Now, listen again.
100
Who is your sister in this photo?
101
Is she the one with long, dark hair?
102
No. My sister has short hair, and she also wears glasses.
103

106
6. What sort of film will they see?
107
How about going to see that new adventure movie tonight?
108
It hasn't got good reviews.
109
I read that the acting isn't that great.
110
There's also the new movie with Matt Dillon at the same cinema.
111
That might be good.
112
You know, I'm not keen on romantic films.
113
You can go and see that with Lorna.
114
Any good detective movies on?
115
There's one at the Odeon, but I think we have seen it.
116
You know, the one with Detective Purcell.
117
Oh, that.
118
You're right.
119
So I guess we ignore the reviews and see the first one.
120
now listen again how about going to see

131
7. Where does the girl want to go on holiday?
132
Where do you go on holiday this summer?
133
I don't know, but I'd prefer to go to an island and not to the mountains, as we usually do with my parents.
134
My mum says that because we live near the sea, she needs a change on our holidays, so we always go to the mountains and sleep in tents,
135
or to big cities and visit museums all the time.
136
I don't like either of them.
137
Now, listen again.
138
Where do you go on holiday this summer?
139
I don't know, but I'd prefer to go to an island and not to the mountains, as we usually do with my parents.
140
My mum says that because we live near the sea, she needs a change on our holidays, so we always go to the mountains and sleep in tents,

Test seven, part two.
145
Now look at part two.
146
For each question, choose the correct answer.
147
Eight.
148
You will hear two friends talking about a new girl in their class.
149
Have you had a chance to talk to that new girl?
150
Oh, you mean Jenny?
151
Yes, I have.
152
She is quite shy, so it's not easy to chat with her.
153
But I think she is going to be top of the class.
154
She is way ahead in maths.
155
Yes, she certainly seems amazing at maths.
156
Still not better than you, though.
157
But I think you are wrong about her being shy.
158
I saw her pushing some younger kids around in the break and telling them to go and get her something to drink.
159
Are you sure?
160
That doesn't sound like her.
161
And she seemed such a nice girl.
162
I am so disappointed.
163
Now, listen again.
164
Have you had a chance to talk to that new girl?
165
Oh, you mean Jenny?
166
Yes, I have.
167
She is quite shy, so it's not easy to chat with her.

178
9. You will hear two friends talking about a group's new song.
179
Have you heard that new song by Blitz?
180
Yeah, I heard it yesterday.
181
I guess it's good, but I prefer their older stuff.
182
You know, when they were first famous, their songs were more original.
183
Now they just sound like all the other groups playing the same sort of music.
184
I guess they don't care so much because they've made lots of money.
185
You're right about that.
186
They used to be so original back then, but I still think this is a good song.
187
Yeah, sure, but for me just good isn't enough.
188
I don't see myself listening to it that much.
189
Now, listen again.
190
have you heard that new song by blitz yeah i heard it yesterday i guess it's good
191

196
Yeah, sure, but for me just good isn't enough.
197
I don't see myself listening to it that much.
198
10. You will hear a girl telling a friend about something she's bought online.
199
Look!
200
I got these great running shoes online.
201
I'd been looking for ages, but in the shops they were too expensive.
202
I found these at half price.
203
Wow, they are great.
204
I've wanted a pair of those since they first came out.
205
The trouble is that the last time I bought something online, I had to send it back.
206
The size was all wrong and then it took six months to get a refund.
207
Yes, I guess it can be a bit of a risk, but I've never had any problem.
208
I guess I was just unlucky.
209
Maybe I should give it another try.
210
My dad has promised to help me.
211
now listen again look i got these great running shoes online i'd been looking for ages

220
Eleven.
221
You will hear two friends talking about their teacher.
222
OK, that's it.
223
I'm going to complain.
224
Mr Jones has given me low marks again.
225
What?
226
For English literature?
227
But you are one of the best in class.
228
But he says I don't take part in the lessons.
229
But my exam marks were so good.
230
He is completely unfair.
231
It's because I'm not English.
232
I agree it's not fair, but it's got nothing to do with your nationality.
233
Half the class are not English.
234
But the highest term mark went to someone who isn't as good as me, but is English.
235
I'm sure that if you talk to him, you'll understand what is going on.
236
And to be fair, you are not the most active student in class.
237
Now, listen again.
238
OK, that's it.
239
I'm going to complain.
240
Mr Jones has given me low marks again what for English literature

249
12. You will hear two friends talking about a new film.
250
Have you seen that new film about that boy lost in the jungle?
251
Yes, I saw it last week.
252
It was a bit disappointing as a story, although I have to say the scenery was excellent.
253
Yes, you're right.
254
I've read the book, which was much better.
255
The film did not show any of the events which explained the reasons behind the boy's actions, but as you said, the scenery was so amazing that it's worth seeing just for that.
256
It has made me want to visit a jungle environment somewhere in the world.
257
Me too.
258
Now, listen again.
259
Have you seen that new film about
260
that boy lost in the jungle yes i saw it last

267
You will hear two friends talking about blogs.
268
I want to create a blog, but I find it too difficult.
269
There's so much information on the web and everyone's telling you to do different things.
270
I know.
271
I had the same problems.
272
When I started my blog, I knew less than nothing about blogging.
273
But now I'm very familiar with it and my blog's doing pretty well.
274
I receive nice comments from some readers.
275
Do you want me to help you?
276
I would be grateful if you could do that for me.
277
Now, listen again.
278

290
For each question, write the correct answer in the gap.
291
Write one or two words or a number or a date or a time.
292
Look at questions 14 to 19 now.
293
You have 20 seconds.
294
You will hear a student giving a review of his visit to Cheswick House and Gardens to his class.
295
Well, London has many surprises waiting to be discovered.
296
So, imagine my surprise when I discovered the amazing Cheswick Park in West London.
297
Hidden amongst the houses, right next to the main station, in fact, just where you would not expect to find a beautiful park,
298
with a restaurant and an example of amazing architecture, Cheswick House was built in 1729.
299
It was designed by its owner, Lord Burlington.
300
The interior of the building is important, not only because of its beauty but because there are important paintings and furniture in it.
301
You can join group tours of Cheswick House which take place every weekend.
302
They last an hour and cost £18 per person.
303
There are also family tickets that cost £38.
304
I went on one of these tours and I can tell you it was well worth every penny.
305
Now, if being outside is more your thing, Cheswick Park, the huge garden which the house was built in, will inspire you.
306
You can go on a garden tour with a guide.
307
You will see the greenhouses filled with flowers and beautiful gardens full of whatever flowers are in season.
308
There is also a flower shop where you can buy plants and souvenirs.
309
The garden tour is £6 per person, or £50 for a group of ten.
310
It takes an hour and a half, after which you will be ready for a meal or a coffee at the restaurant.
311
There is a wide selection of cakes and snacks from as little as £2 for coffee and a piece of cake.
312
Oh, and if you're in London from the 7th of June, there is a music week.
313
You can sit on the grass and listen to music from 6 in the afternoon to 10 every evening.
314
The Music Week ends on the 13th of June with an amazing teenagers song competition.
315
Now, listen again.
316

For each question, choose the correct answer.
341
Look at questions 20 to 25 now.
342
You have 45 seconds.
343
You will hear an interview with a young athlete called Miguel.
344
Today, we have Miguel with us, who is a young athlete in a very unusual sport, parkour.
345
Miguel, tell us a bit about this interesting sport.
346
What is the aim of it? well it's a very new
347
sport as it actually started in the 1980s it was started in france
348
and is also known as free running the athletes are aimed to move in whichever way they can over
349
and through any area without using any equipment only the ability of their body
350
and in the fastest and most efficient way mostly it is running
351
and jumping which obviously relies on strength
352
and fitness what is the main difficulty in this sport well i'd say self -control
353
and to rely only on yourself there is no room for
354
being scared the movements required to work all parts of your body
355
and the mind needs to control any worries about height
356
or difficulties the athlete faces what is true about parkour in
357
the uk well the uk has become the first country in the world to recognize it as a sport
358
so now it can get financial support from the government this also means
359
that it could soon be practiced in schools as it is an exciting
360
and interesting activity
361
which can develop useful skills in school children i think my
362
school will be one of the first to include this kind
363
of sport in the schedule what do you think about a
364
recent video about parkour not everybody seems to like this sport yes mainly
365
because some people do it in cities without the help of safety ropes so there is a danger to athletes, as well as people nearby.
366
This was not helped by the video which came out with a parkour athlete running across Cambridge.
367
Many people didn't like him, as he was filmed on ancient buildings, which they said was against the law and should be forbidden.
368
Well, I hear you are going to take part in the parkour competition on the Greek island of Santorini next month.
369
Is it true?
370
Yes, it will be my first time.
371
It's an amazing location and a real challenge.
372
The competition is very popular with athletes and can be watched on social media and on TV, which is great for the athletes as they become famous and get offered career opportunities.
373
What are your plans for the future?
374
Do you want to become a champion at parkour or is it just a hobby?
375
I would like to finish my school first and maybe study sports at university.
376
Regarding parkour, I really enjoy it, but I don't think I would like to be a professional parkour trainer.
377
Thanks, Miguel.
378
I'm sure many young people will be inspired to start parkour after this.
379
Now, listen again.
380
Today, we have Miguel with us, who is a young athlete in a very unusual sport.
381
parkour.
382

Well, the UK has become the first country in the world to recognise it as a sport, so now it can get financial support from the government.

Contesto e sfondo
Il video presenta un dialogo tra giovani in situazioni quotidiane, come la scelta di un lavoro o l'ordinazione di cibo. Questi scenari reali rendono la pratica di conversazione in inglese accessibile e utile, poiché riflettono situazioni che tutti viviamo. Le conversazioni sono semplici ma ricche di espressioni colloquiali, perfette per chi vuole migliorare la pronuncia inglese e la fluidità.
5 frasi chiave per la comunicazione quotidiana
- "Have you thought what job you would like to do?": Una domanda comune per discutere dei piani futuri, ideale per le conversazioni tra amici o compagni di scuola.
- "I enjoy looking after people who are sick": Esprime un interesse o una passione per un'attività, utile per parlare di hobby o metodi di lavoro.
- "Why don't you become a teacher?": Un modo gentile per suggerire qualcosa, perfetto per dare consigli in contesti informali.
- "Now that I think": Un'espressione per correggere o riflettere su una decisione, molto usata nella conversazione spontanea.
- "I'll take my first choice": Indica la scelta finale dopo una discussione, utile per chi vuole esprimere decisività.
Guida passo passo per lo shadowspeak
Lo shadowspeak (o shadow speak) è una tecnica probata per migliorare la pronuncia inglese e la fluidità. Ecco come applicarla al video:
- Ascolta attentamente: Riproduci il dialogo una volta per capire il contesto e l'intonazione. Concentrati sulle pause e sulle sfumature di voce.
- Ripeti immediatamente: Dopo ogni frase, ripetila al massimo 2 secondi dopo il parlante. Cerca di imitare la velocità e la pronuncia, anche se non capisci ogni parola.
- Analizza le frasi difficili: Nelle parti dove la pronuncia è veloce (es. "Now that I think"), pausa il video e ripeti più volte finché non la senti naturale.
- Confronta e correggi: Registrati mentre ripeti e confronta con il video. Nota le differenze nella pronuncia e correggi gradualmente.
- Pratica quotidianamente: Dedica 10-15 minuti al giorno a questo esercizio. Imparare l'inglese con i video diventerà più semplice e i risultati saranno visibili in poche settimane.
Con questa guida, la pratica di conversazione in inglese diventerà un'abitudine naturale, e la tua pronuncia migliorerà costantemente. Lo shadowspeak è la chiave per superare la barriera della paura di parlare e diventare più confidente nella comunicazione inglese.
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Frasi condizionali if + frase, will/would + verbo — una condizione e il suo risultato | if you talk to him, you'll understand |
| “Used to” used to + verbo — un’abitudine o uno stato passato che non è più vero | used to be |
| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | I've seen · I've given · have seen |
| Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa | be discovered · was built · was designed |
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.
