Part 3 You will hear two students called Hugo and Chantal discussing a talk they have just attended at the start of their course in fashion design.
2
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 26.
3
Thank you.
4
Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 26.
5
Hi Chantal.
6
What did you think of the talk then?
7
Hi Hugo.
8
I thought it was good once I'd moved seats.
9
Oh, were the people beside you chatting or something?
10
It wasn't that.
11
I went early so that I'd get a seat and not have to stand.
12
but then this guy sat right in front of me and he was so tall.
13
It's hard to see through people's heads, isn't it?
14
Impossible!
15
Anyway, to answer your question, I thought it was really interesting,
16
especially what the speaker said about the job market me too I mean we know we're going into a really competitive
17
field so it's obvious that we may struggle to get work that's right and we know we can't all have that dream job yeah but it looks like there's a whole range of areas of work that we hadn't even thought of like
18
fashion journalism for instance.
19
Yeah, I wasn't expecting so many career options.
20
Hmm.
21
Overall, she had quite a strong message, didn't she?
22
She did.
23
She kept saying things like, I know you all think this, but...
24
and then she'd tell us how it really is.
25
Perhaps she thinks students are a bit narrow-minded about the industry.
26
It was a bit harsh, though.
27
We know it's a tough industry.
28
Yeah, and we're only first years after all.
29
We've got a lot to learn.
30
Exactly.
31
Do you think our secondary school education should have been more career-focused?
32
Well, we had numerous talks on careers, which was good, but none of them were very inspiring.
33
They could have asked more people like today's speaker to talk to us.
34
I agree.
35
We were told about lots of different careers, just when we needed to be, but not by the experts who really know stuff.
36
So did today's talk influence your thoughts on what career you'd like to take up in the future?
37
Well, I promised myself that I'd go through this course and keep an open mind till the end.
38
But I think it's better to pick an area of the industry now and then aim to get better and better at it.
39
Well, I think we'll just have to differ on that issue.
40
One thing's for certain though, from what she said, we'll be unpaid assistants in the industry for quite a long time.
41
I'm prepared for that.
42
Aren't you?
43
Actually, I'm not going to accept that view.
44
Really?
45
But she knows it's the case, and everyone else says the same.
46
That doesn't mean it has to be true for me.
47
OK.
48
Well, I hope you're right.
49
Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions 27 to 30.
50
Now listen and answer questions 27 to 30.
51
I thought the speaker's account of her first job was fascinating.
52
Yeah.
53
She admitted she was lucky to get work being a personal dresser for a musician.
54
She didn't even apply for the job and there she was getting paid to choose all his clothes.
55
It must have felt amazing.
56
Though she said all she was looking for back then was experience, not financial reward.
57
And then he was so mean telling her she was more interested in her own appearance than his.
58
But she did realise he was right about that, which really made me think.
59
I'm always considering my own clothes, but now I can see you should be focusing on your client.
60
She obviously regretted losing the job.
61
Well, as she said, she should have hidden her negative feelings about him, but she didn't.
62
It was really brave the way she picked herself up and took that job in retail.
63
Fancy working in a shop after that?
64
Yeah, well, she recommended we all do it at some point.
65
I guess as a designer you'd get to find out some useful information, like how big or small the average shopper is.
66
I think that's an issue for manufacturers, not designers.
67
However, it would be useful to know if there's a gap in the market, you know?
68
An item that no one's stocking, but that consumers are looking for.
69
Yeah, people don't give up searching.
70
They also take things back to the store if they aren't right.
71
Yeah.
72
Imagine you worked in an expensive shop and you found out the garments sold there were being returned because they fell apart in the wash.
73
Yeah, it would be good to know that kind of thing.
74
Yeah.
75
That is the end of part three.
76
You now have 30 seconds to check your answers to part three.
77
Thank you.

この動画でスピーキングを練習する理由

この動画では、ファッションデザインのコースの学生であるヒューゴとシャンタルが、業界の講演について議論している様子が描かれています。彼らの会話は、将来のキャリアに対する考え方や業界の現実を反映しており、特に競争の激しい職場環境に関する洞察が得られます。YouTubeで英語学習を行う際、実際の会話を通じてリスニング力を高め、自分の意見を表現するスキルを磨くことは非常に重要です。さらに、英語スピーキング練習においては、ネイティブスピーカーの発音やイントネーションを習得するための「shadow speech」が効果的です。

文法と文脈の中の表現

この会話で使用されているいくつかの重要な文法構造や表現を分析します。これらは、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立つでしょう。

  • "I thought it was good once I'd moved seats." - 過去形と過去完了形を使った文で、出来事の順序を明確に伝えています。
  • "We know we're going into a really competitive field." - 現在進行形を用いることで、現在の状況と未来の計画をつなげています。
  • "It looks like there's a whole range of areas of work that we hadn't even thought of." - 助動詞を用いて、予想や見解を示しています。これは、意見を述べる際に非常に有用です。
  • "I'm prepared for that." - 現在形を用いた自己表現で、自分の意志を伝える際に役立ちます。

一般的な発音の落とし穴

動画内での発音の特徴やつまずきやすい単語について考察します。このような点に注意することで、英語スピーキング練習をより効果的に行えます。

  • "industry" - この単語は、特に「インダストリー」と発音する際に、母音の流れがつかみにくい場合があります。
  • "career" - 「カリア」と誤って発音する学習者も多いですが、正しい発音は「キャリア」です。
  • "narrow-minded" - この形容詞は連結音が難しいため、特に速いスピードで話す場合に注意が必要です。

これらの要素を意識しながら、shadow speakを実践することで、効果的に英語力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。
