Part 4.
2
You will hear a lecturer on a fashion design course introducing the subject of hand knitting, which involves making things like woolen jumpers and scarves.
3
First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.
4
Thank you.
5
Now listen carefully and answer questions 31 to 40.
6
Good morning everyone.
7
So today we're going to look at an important creative activity and that's hand knitting.
8
Ancient knitted garments have been found in many different countries showing
9
that knitting is a global activity with a long history
10
when someone says the word knitting
11
we might well picture an elderly person a grandmother perhaps sitting by the fire knitting garments for themselves
12
or other members of the family it's a homely image
13
but one that may lead you to feel that knitting is an activity of the past
14
And indeed, during the previous decade, it was one of the skills that was predicted to vanish from everyday life.
15
For although humans have sewn and knitted their own clothing for a very long time,
16
many of these craft -based skills went into decline when industrial machines took over,
17
mainly because they were no longer passed down from one generation to another.
18
However, that's all changing, and interest in knitting classes, in many countries, is actually rising,
19
as more and more people are seeking formal instruction in the skill.
20
With that trend, we're also seeing an increase in the sales figures for knitting equipment.
21
So, why do people want to be taught to knit at a time
22
when a machine can readily do the job for them?
23
The answer is that knitting as a handicraft has numerous benefits for those doing it.
24
Let's consider what some of these might be.
25
While many people knitted garments in the past because they couldn't afford to buy clothes,
26
it's still true today that knitting can be helpful if you're experiencing economic hardship.
27
If you have several children who all need warm winter clothes, knitting may save you a lot of money.
28
And the results of knitting your own clothes can be very rewarding,
29
even though the skills you need to get going are really quite basic and the financial outlay is minimal.
30
But the more significant benefits in today's world are to do with well -being.
31
In a world where it's estimated that we spend up to nine hours a day online,
32
doing something with our hands that is craft -based makes us feel good.
33
It releases us from the stress of a technological, fast -paced life.
34
Now, let's look back a bit to early knitting activities.
35
In fact, no one really knows when knitting first began,
36
but archaeological remains have disclosed plenty of information for us to think about.
37
One of the interesting things about knitting is
38
that the earliest pieces of clothing that have been found suggest that most of the items produced were round rather than flat.
39
Discoveries from the 3rd and 4th centuries in Egypt show that things like socks and gloves,
40
that were needed to keep hands and feet warm, were knitted in one piece using 4 or 5 needles.
41
That's very different from most knitting patterns today, which only require two.
42
What's more, the very first needles people used were hand -carved out of wood and other natural materials,
43
like bone, whereas today's needles are largely made of steel or plastic and make that characteristic clicking sound when someone's using them.
44
Ancient people knitted using yarns made from linen,
45
hemp, cotton and wool, and these were often very rough on the skin.
46
The spinning wheel, which allowed people to make finer yarns and produce much greater quantities of them,
47
led to the dominance of wool in the knitting industry, often favoured for its warmth.
48
another interesting fact about knitting is that because it was practiced in
49
so many parts of the world for
50
so many purposes regional differences in style developed this visual identity has allowed researchers to match bits of knitted clothing
51
that have been unearthed over time to the region from which the wearer came, or the job that he or she did.
52
As I've mentioned, knitting offered people from poor communities a way of making extra money while doing other tasks.
53
For many centuries, it seems, men, women and children took every opportunity to knit,
54
for example, while watching over sheep, walking to market, or riding in boats.
55
So, let's move on to...
56
That is the end of part four.
57
You now have one minute to check your answers to part four.

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。
