1
You'll hear three different extracts.

For questions 1 to 6, choose the answer A, B or C, which fits best according to what you hear.
3
There are two questions for each extract.
4
Extract 1 You hear part of an interview with a woman who works in retail management.
5
Now look at questions 1 and 2.
6
So, Fiona, can you tell me about how you started in fashion retailing?
7
Yes, of course.
8
After I finished university, I took a job with a big high street chain.
9
I was an assistant manager.
10
Every week you would see the sales figures for your product
11
and then act on that by placing repeat orders or putting a new style in.
12
It was a good grounding.
13
However, most of the staff had been there years and I think I did make mistakes in my dealings with them.
14
I blush now to think of my time there.
15
I then moved on after five years to my present job.
16
And now you're thinking of moving up the ladder.
17
How do you see yourself in ten years' time?
18
I would eventually like to be in senior management.
19
Well, before you rush off to see your line manager, I think you need to work out skills you can offer emphasising your selling points, showing them what you can do.
20
Also, have you been going the extra mile to get things done or doing more than what is asked of you recently?
21
Now you'll hear the recording again.

37
Extract 2.
38
You overhear a woman telling a friend a story about a swan.
39
Now look at questions 3 and 4.
40
So what happened last weekend?
41
Well, we were taking our boat along the river when we passed a pair of swans with a nest nearby.
42
One swan just carried on feeding, but the other one, the male, I think, decided to come and investigate.
43
Oh, fantastic.
44
I've never seen a swan's nest close up.
45
I expect he was hungry.
46
Well, actually, it was immediately obvious from his body language that he had other things on his mind.
47
He was flapping his wings really hard and approaching at incredible speed.
48
I guess we'd gone too close to the nest.
49
I'd never have done that if I'd known what would happen.
50
Gosh, amazing!
51
I've never heard of swans behaving like that before.
52
So what did you do, Roe like mad?
53
Well, we got out onto the bank, but he followed us up and then stood between us and the boat for about an hour.
54
We just couldn't frighten him away.
55
No, I suppose not.
56
Still, I'm sure he wouldn't have hurt you.
57
Are you kidding?
58
You should have seen the way he moved.
59
Swans can be really aggressive at nesting times.
60
Hmm.
61
Now you'll hear the recording again.

Extract 3.
84
You hear part of an interview with Bruce Loder, a successful businessman who's talking about his early life.
85
Now look at questions 5 and 6.
86
The End Bruce, at school you discovered you had a natural talent for art.
87
Yes, I inherited my dad's gift for drawing.
88
I wanted to do representational art, paint portraits.
89
But every college I went to, and there were three who accepted me, all the college tutors said, forget representational art, get a single lens reflex 33mm camera,
90
hit the shutter, crash, there's your picture.
91
Not even Rembrandt could get that accuracy, so it's not worth it.
92
And you believed them?
93
I did.
94
That was my biggest mistake.
95
I haven't picked up a paintbrush since.
96
How did your father react when you told him you weren't going to art college.
97
His face was white with rage.
98
He said, right, that's it.
99
You could have made something of going to college.
100
You won't get another chance.
101
Now I've got a perfectly good job for you on the factory floor.
102
You start this week, take it or leave it.
103
I said, no, I'm going to start a business next.
104
He said, well, at your own expense then.
105
He refused to support you anymore?
106
That's it. And so...
107
Now you'll hear the recording again.
108

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
