27th Recording 6 1 I hope you've enjoyed your stay with us.
95
Yes, it was lovely.
96
But I had to pay £95, which seems a bit expensive.
97
Last time I stayed here I only paid £80.
98
Yes, I'm sorry, madam.
99
We had to increase our prices considerably this year,
100
but that is actually a discounted price as you're a regular guest.
101
It would normally be £105.
102
Oh.
103
Two.
104
Now, on Thursday, there will be a special class, which will be given by a wonderful local artist.
105
As this isn't included in your fees, you will need to pay for this on the day.
106
We've kept the costs low.
107
It's only ten dollars for our regular students here.
108
If you want to bring along anyone else who hasn't studied with us before, the cost for them is fifteen dollars.
109
We charge them an extra five dollars for the use of equipment, which old students have already paid for.
110
3. Can you tell me how big the garage is?
111
I just want to make sure our cars will fit.
112
Let me have a look.
113
How big are your cars?
114
Mine's about 1.5 metres wide and my wife's is almost the same.
115
Hmm, I don't think it's wide enough, I'm afraid.
116
It says here that it's 3.5 metres across
117
and you need at least a metre between the cars to be able to open the doors.
118
You're right.
119
What about the height?
120
Mine's a van I use for work and I carry a lot of equipment on top.
121
Let me see.
122
It's two and a half metres.
123
Would that be tall enough?
124
Not for my big ladders, no. I'd like three metres at least.
125
I'm thinking of taking my children to the Gold Coast in the holidays.
126
Can you tell me how much it would cost on the bus?
127
I don't want to drive all that way.
128
Right.
129
You'd qualify for a family ticket, which is the cheapest way to do it.
130
It'll be $55 altogether.
131
Normally, a child's fare is $25 and an adult is $45.
132
Oh, that's a good deal.
133
I'm trying to organise a party, and I wondered if your hotel had a room we could use.
134
We do have several function rooms.
135
What date did you have in mind for the party?
136
I'll just warn you, we're already fully booked for most of June.
137
The first available date I have is the 14th of July.
138
Oh, that's not a problem.
139
It's for my dad's birthday, which isn't until the 1st of August.
140
That's a Tuesday.
141
Yes.
142
So I'd like to hold it at the end of July, on the Saturday before.
143
So that's the 29th?
144
Yes, that's right.
145
Recording 6 1.

151
We had to increase our prices considerably this year,
152
but that is actually a discounted price as you're a regular guest.
153
It would normally be a hundred and five pounds.
154
Oh.
155

1. We had a good response to our survey,
200
and we found that while 80% of our students drink coffee only 15% drink tea with the rest preferring water
201
two over 800,000 people in the US are estimated to have tried skiing this may seem a large number
202
but it represents just over 0.26% of the total population of 300 million so per capita it is surprisingly small
203
three it's estimated that India is home to between 38,000
204
and 53,000 wild elephants while Africa has between 470,000 and 690,000 exact figures are difficult to determine.
205
4. An elephant can weigh between 2.5 and 5 tonnes.
206
This is comparable to the tongue of the blue whale, which alone can weigh 2.7 tonnes.
207
In fact, a blue whale can weigh 15 times more than an elephant
208
and can grow to about 10 times the size of a standard bus.

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.
