Pratica di Shadowing: Telstra senate inquiry bombshell | 9 News Australia - Impara a parlare inglese con i video
Creazione lezione...
1
Well, an outdated server has been named as the catalyst to Telstra's mobile network outage last week.
2
For more, we are joined by CEO of the Australian Communications Consumer Action Network, Carol Bennett.
3
Carol, thank you so much for your time this morning.
4
A $30 ,000 software update could have prevented all of this.
5
What does this say about Telstra's controls and their processes?
6
despite the manufacturer recommending that over a period from 2022.
7
The second decision was to
8
reconfigure that piece of equipment but not document it and the third was not to upgrade that piece of equipment.
9
So quite an issue of process and of culture clearly for Telstra.
10
For me I'm unsure where the accountability is like who is to to blame for making that decision?
11
Well that's a good question.
12
There are a number of reviews underway.
13
Telstra has its own review.
14
by the regulator to look into this
15
but either way you know it does point to some really big process and culture issues within Telstra.
16
Absolutely 8 .8 million customers were impacted Carol do you think they'll receive any compensation?
17
Well compensation did come up yesterday
18
and Telstra have offered anyone affected by this outage some kind of assessment process so you can apply and Telstra claims.
19
We know that 8 ,000 people have already applied and there are service credits being provided, 100 ,000 to date, but no reimbursement of payment.
20
I know that you have been listening in on every single word
21
that the Telstra CEO has spoken about this over the last week or so.
22
Was there any reassurance from Telstra that this won't happen again?
23
Well Telstra have apologised and the CEO Vicki Brady has returned from her holiday and been very proactive in letting the
24
that Telstra is doing everything it can to avoid this happening again.
25
We certainly want the assurance, but what we want more than the assurance is a change to the system.
26
Telco is an essential service.
27
We all rely on it for everything we do every day.
28
We need to see an uplift in reliability standards, in things like domestic mobile roaming.
29
and not just relying on companies who are acting in shareholder interests and not the public interest.
30
I feel like...
31
As Australians we had such an enormous sense of deja vu with this
32
because we already had the catastrophic Optus outage last year.
33
When you talk about needing reliability standards, what do you want to see in place?
34
What do we need to see in place to make sure that this doesn't happen again?
35
standards that are enforceable.
36
You know the question is would this outage have occurred in the first place?
37
We need those assurances.
38
We need domestic mobile roaming.
39
Australians, if their phone is is not connecting to their providers network can connect to another network.
40
This happens in other countries.
41
It's time for us to get serious about this.
42
It's astounding to me that there aren't reliability standards in place.
43
Carol, thanks so much for your time this morning.
44
Thanks, Ali.

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.
