Part 2.
2
You will hear a tour guide, Lou Miller,
3
speaking to a group of people about a boat trip they are going to take around the Australian island of Tasmania.
4
First you have some time to look at questions 11 to 14.
5
Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 14. So, hello everyone.
6
My name's Lou Miller, and I'm going to be your tour guide today, as we take this fantastic boat trip around the Tasmanian coast.
7
Before we set off, I just want to tell you a few things about our journey.
8
Our boats aren't huge, as you can see.
9
We We already have three staff members on board, and on top of that,
10
we can transport a further 15 people around the coastline.
11
But please note, if there are more than 9 people on either side of the boat, we'll move some of you over,
12
otherwise all 18 of us will end up in the sea.
13
We've recently upgraded all our boats.
14
They used to be jet black, but our new ones now have these comfortable dark red seats
15
and a light green exterior in order to stand out from others and help promote our company.
16
This gives our boats a rather unique appearance, don't you think?
17
We offer you a free lunchbox during the trip, and we have three types.
18
Lunchbox 1 contains ham and tomato sandwiches.
19
Lunchbox 2 contains a cheddar cheese roll.
20
And Lunchbox 3 is salad-based and also contains eggs and tuna.
21
All three lunchboxes also have a packet of crisps and chocolate bar inside.
22
Please let staff know which lunchbox you prefer.
23
I'm sure I don't have to ask you not to throw anything into the sea.
24
We don't have any bins to put litter in, but Jess, myself or Ray,
25
our other guide, will collect it from you after lunch and put it all in a large plastic sack.
26
Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 15 to 20.
27
Now listen and answer questions 15 to 20.
28
The engine on the boat makes quite a lot of noise, so before we head off, let me tell you a few things about what you're going to see.
29
This area is famous for its ancient lighthouse, which you'll see from the boat as we turn past the first little island.
30
It was built in 1838 to protect sailors, as a number of shipwrecks had led to significant loss of life.
31
The construction itself was complicated, as some of the original drawings kept by the local council show.
32
It sits right on top of the cliffs in a very isolated spot.
33
In the 19th century, there were many jobs there, such as polishing the brass lamps,
34
chopping firewood and cleaning windows that kept lighthouse keepers busy.
35
These workers were mainly prison convicts until the middle of that century, when ordinary families willing to live in such circumstances took over.
36
Some of you have asked me what creatures we can expect to see.
37
I know everyone loves the penguins, but they're very shy and unfortunately tend to hide from passing boats,
38
but you might see birds in the distance, such as sea eagles, flying around the cliff edges where they nest.
39
When we get to the rocky area inhabited by fur seals, we'll stop and watch them swimming around the coast.
40
They're inquisitive creatures, so don't be surprised if one pops up right in front of you.
41
Their predators, orca whales, hunt along the coastline too, but spotting one of these is rare.
42
Dolphins, on the other hand, can sometimes approach on their own or in groups as they ride the waves beside us.
43
Lastly, I want to mention the caves.
44
Tasmania is famous for its caves, and the ones we'll pass by are so amazing that people are lost for words when they see them.
45
They can only be approached by sea, but if you feel that you want to see more than we're able to show you,
46
then you can take a kayak into the area on another day, and one of our staff will give you more information on that.
47
What we'll do is to go through a narrow channel, past some incredible rock formations,
48
and from there we'll be able to see the openings to the caves, and at that point we'll talk to you about what lies beyond.
49
That is the end of part two.
50
You now have half a minute to check your answers to part two.

このレッスンについて
このレッスンでは、オーストラリアのタスマニア島周辺を巡るボート旅行に関する会話を通じて、リスニング力とスピーキング力を向上させます。具体的には、ツアーガイドのルー・ミラーさんが旅行中に話す内容を理解し、さらに自分でもその内容を英語でシャドーイングすることを練習します。この演習を通じて、実際の旅行会話に即した表現力や発音の精度を高めることができます。
主な語彙とフレーズ
- tour guide（ツアーガイド）
- boat trip（ボート旅行）
- lunchbox（ランチボックス）
- ancient lighthouse（古い灯台）
- inquisitive creatures（好奇心旺盛な生き物）
- rock formations（岩の形成）

練習のコツ
この動画のスピードは自然な会話の速さで進行しますので、最初は音声をじっくり聴き、内容を理解することに力を入れましょう。特に、ルーさんの話し方に注意を払いながら、英語シャドーイングを行うことが重要です。シンプルなフレーズから始め、聞こえた通りに声に出してみましょう。例えば、「Our boats aren't huge」や「We offer you a free lunchbox during the trip」など、短い文を繰り返し練習することで、発音やリズムが自然になります。自分の声を録音して、発音を客観的に確認するのも良い方法です。また、IELTS スピーキング対策としてもこの手法は非常に有効です。
発話のテンポを掴むために、YouTubeで英語学習において、動画を一時停止しながら、自分の言葉で続ける練習も取り入れてみてください。<>shadow speechの概念を活用して、ルーさんのイントネーションや表情を真似することで、より生き生きとした表現ができるようになります。全体として、この演習が皆さんの英語スピーキング練習に多いに貢献することを願っています。
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。
