Hi Anastasia, you look tired.

I helped my friend Jill do the housework and washing a car is no easy task.
6
I know.
7
That's why I only water the plants.
8
Well, that sounds more relaxing.
9
I wish I had done that.

Part 2 Look at questions 6 to 10 now.
101
You have 10 seconds.
102
You will hear a teacher talking to a group of students about a summer course.
103
Most students in this college study in Brighton Summer School during the summer holidays and really enjoy it.
104
So, I'm going to tell you a bit about their summer school.
105
Courses start on the 20th of June so you can choose any date that suits you until August the 15th.
106
Most students choose courses in the middle of July as the weather's better then.
107
Courses are available for students who are between 18 and 25 years old.
108
But to work there as an assistant during your studies, you have to be at least 22.
109
You don't need to be good at sports or other languages, but they need you to speak good English.
110
That's because all classes will be in English.
111
Each day you'll get some homework and during your time there you'll need to do two group projects, one each week.
112
If you're interested, you need to email me at jessiejones at email.com.
113
That's J-E-S-S-Y-J-O-N-E-S, telling me why you'd like to go.

131
Stare off and work?
132
Actually, I saw an advert during my favourite TV programme, English Fun, the one we used to listen to on the radio.
133
I got tired of it.
134
It got so boring.
135
It's funny you should say that, but the online radio shows are nothing like that.
136
Their clever advice has really helped me.
137
We should tell Miss Jessica about it.
138
My cousin has a lesson with her today, so do you spend a lot of time on it?
139
On Friday, I was on it for an hour and a half, yesterday about three quarters of an hour,
140
and today, maybe I'll find an hour to read some articles. Are there articles too?
141
Yes, on different levels and some of them also have a video.
142
If you're not sure about your English level, you can ask an online teacher.
143
The only way I'd read an article is if I were to watch something about it.
144
So I'm going to contact a teacher on the website and get started.
145
Great!
146
Now, listen again.
147
I found out about a website that helps you improve your English.
148

164
Part 4 16 You will hear two friends talking.
165
Where are they?
166
We were so lucky we got these last-minute tickets.
167
Yeah, but a flight home would be much faster and more comfortable than a train ride.
168
We should have booked earlier.
169
It was too expensive.
170
It could be worse.
171
Last time we had to catch a bus home.
172
It took us nine hours to get back and we were too tired to go to work the next day.

184
Her son told her that he was interested in becoming a football player when he finishes school.
185
He's really good at football and his coach tells him he could play for an important team one day.
186
I guess Delilah always hoped he would like to do what she does.

197
Well, that explains it.
198
Please stay away from motorways for some time.
199
You almost had an accident back there.
200

213
But I'm really worried about your school work.
214
Your teacher has called us and she wanted us to tell her why you're always so tired.
215
I explained, but she said she wasn't sure you should keep doing this.
216
And I think I agree with her.
217
Now, listen again.
218
I know after your dad lost his job, you've been trying to help us by working in the cafe in the afternoons.

Actually, my train was delayed, so I didn't get home until after ten.
228
At least I did most of the work at the station and the rest on the train.
229

Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — un’azione iniziata prima e ancora in corso | you've been trying |
| “Used to” used to + verbo — un’abitudine o uno stato passato che non è più vero | used to listen |
| Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa | is made · was delayed · are done |
| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | has really helped · has called |
Pronuncia a cui fare attenzione

- /h/ — va soffiata, non è muta: headache /ˈhɛdeɪk/, homework /ˈhoʊmˌwɝk/, housework /ˈhaʊsˌwɝk/
- Consonante finale — senza aggiungere una vocale dopo: pound /ˈpaʊ̯nd/, wash /wɑʃ/, headache /ˈhɛdeɪk/, relax /ɹɪˈlæks/, laptop /ˈlæp.tɑp/
- /æ/ — più aperta della “e”: relax /ɹɪˈlæks/, laptop /ˈlæp.tɑp/, tablet /ˈtæblət/, grandpa /ˈɡɹæm.pɑː/, café /ˌkæˈfeɪ/
Come esercitarsi con questo video
- Ascolta tutto il video una volta senza parlare e annota le parole che non conosci.
- Fai shadowing frase per frase a velocità normale, ripetendo ognuna finché il tuo ritmo coincide con quello di chi parla.
- Registrati e confronta con l’originale, facendo attenzione a parole come lesson, wash, headache.
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.
