Section 2.
2
You will hear a talk given by a woman called Shona Ferguson, about changes in a town called Barford.
3
First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 15.
4
Now listen carefully.
5
and answer questions 11 to 15.
6
First of all, let me thank you all for coming to this public meeting to discuss the future of our town.
7
Our first speaker is Shona Ferguson from Barford Town Council.
8
Shona.
9
Thank you.
10
First, I'll briefly give you some background information.
11
Then I'll be asking you for your comments on developments in the town.
12
Well, as you don't need me to tell you, Barford has changed a great deal in the last fifty years.
13
These are some of the main changes.
14
Fifty years ago, buses linked virtually every part of the town and the neighbouring towns and villages.
15
Most people used them frequently.
16
But not now, because the bus companies concentrate on just the routes that attract most passengers.
17
So parts of the town are no longer served by buses.
18
Even replacing old, uncomfortable buses with smart new ones has had little impact on passenger numbers.
19
It's sometimes said that bus fares are too high, but in relation to average incomes, fares are not much higher than they were 50 years ago.
20
Changes in the road network are affecting the town.
21
The centre was recently closed to traffic on a trial basis, making it much safer for pedestrians.
22
The impact of this is being measured.
23
The new cycle paths separating bikes from cars in most main roads are being used far more than was expected.
24
reducing traffic and improving air quality.
25
And although the Council's attempts to have a bypass constructed have failed, we haven't given up hope of persuading the Government to change its mind.
26
Shopping in the town centre has changed over the years.
27
Many of us can remember when the town was crowded with people going shopping.
28
Numbers have been falling for several years, despite efforts to attract shoppers for instance by opening new car parks.
29
Some people combine shopping with visits to the town's restaurants and cafes.
30
Most shops are small, independent stores, which is good.
31
But many people prefer to use supermarkets
32
and department stores in nearby large towns as there are so few well -known chain stores here.
33
Turning now to medical facilities.
34
The town is served by family doctors in several medical practices.
35
Fewer than fifty years ago, but each catering for far more patients.
36
Our hospital closed 15 years ago, which means journeys to other towns are unavoidable.
37
On the other hand, there are more dentists than there used to be.
38
Employment patterns have changed along with almost everything else.
39
The number of schools and colleges has increased, making that the main employment sector.
40
Services such as website design and accountancy have grown in importance,
41
and surprisingly perhaps, manufacturing hasn't seen the decline that has affected it in other parts of the country.
42
Before you hear the rest of the talk, You have some time to look at questions 16 to 20.
43
Now listen and answer questions 16 to 20.
44
Now I'll very quickly outline current plans for some of the town's facilities.
45
before asking for your comments.
46
As you'll know if you regularly use the car park at the railway station, it's usually full.
47
The railway company applied for permission to replace it with a multi -storey car park, But that was refused.
48
Instead, the company has bought some adjoining land, and this will be used to increase the number of packing spaces.
49
The Grand, the old cinema in the high street, will close at the end of the year and reopen on a different site.
50
You've probably seen the building under construction.
51
The plan is to have three screens with fewer seats rather than just the one large auditorium in the old cinema.
52
I expect many of you shop in the indoor market.
53
It's become more and more shabby looking, and because of fears about safety, it was threatened with demolition.
54
The good news is that it will close for six weeks to be made safe and redecorated, and the improved building will open in July.
55
Lots of people use the library, including school and college students who go there to study.
56
The Council has managed to secure funding to keep the library open later into the evening, Twice a week.
57
We would like to enlarge the building in the not too distant future, but this is by no means definite.
58
There's no limit on access to the nature reserve on the edge of town, and this will continue to be the case.
59
What will change, though, is that the Council will no longer be in charge of the area.
60
Instead, it will become the responsibility of a national body that administers most nature reserves in the country.
61
OK, now let me ask you if you have...
62
That is the end of Section 2.
63
You now have half a minute to check your answers.

おすすめ動画

この動画で話す練習をする理由は?

この動画では、バーフォードの変化についての公聴会での話を聞くことができます。話し手のショナ・ファーガソンは、町の発展についての意見を求めています。公聴会という形式は、リアルな会話の状況を想定しており、参加者が意見を述べる機会があるため、IELTS スピーキング対策において非常に役立ちます。また、英語を話す自信を深め、他者とのコミュニケーションにおけるスキルを磨く絶好の機会です。

文法とコンテクストの中の表現

この動画には、いくつかの重要な構造が含まれています。以下にその一部を分析します。

  • 過去形の使用:「バーフォードは過去50年間で大きく変わった」という文は過去の状況を示しており、状況の変化に焦点を当てています。
  • 現在進行形:「新しいサイクルパスが使用されている」という表現は、現在の出来事やトレンドを強調します。これによって、話題が具体的で直接的に感じられます。
  • 受動態:「病院は15年前に閉鎖された」という表現は、行為者よりも出来事に焦点を当てる際に非常に役立ちます。この文法は、正式な場面での発言に適しています。

一般的な発音の落とし穴

動画の中には、特に注意が必要な言葉やアクセントがあります。ここではいくつかの例を紹介します:

  • Barford:地名の発音は、他の場所に比べて独特であるため注意が必要です。地元の人々の発音に耳を傾けてみましょう。
  • comment:この単語は、発音が難しく、特に「コ」を強調する必要があります。正確な発音は、意見を述べる際に重要です。
  • facility:この単語では、頭部が「ファ」と「シ」がはっきり分かれるように発音することがポイントです。

英語の発音を良くするために、shadow speakやshadowspeaksの技術を取り入れ、動画を繰り返し聞きながら練習することをお勧めします。YouTubeで英語学習を続けることで、発音だけでなく、流暢さを向上させることができます。

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。
