Section one.

You will hear a conversation between a student looking for a host family and a housing advisor.
12
First, you have some time to look at questions one to five.
13
You will see that there is an example which has been done for you.
14
On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.
15
Good morning.
16
How can I help you?

18
Um, I understand you help fix up students with host families.
19
That's right.

27
Can you spell that, please?
28
Yes.
29
J-E-N-N-Y-C-H-A-N.
30
Right.
31
And what is your present address?
32
The student's name is Jenny Chan,
33
so Jenny Chan has been written on the form.
34
Now we shall begin.
35
You should answer the questions as you listen,
36
because you will not hear the recording a second time.
37
Listen carefully and answer questions one to five.
38
Good morning.
39
How can I help you?
40
Good morning.
41
Um, I understand you help fix up students with host families.
42
That's right.
43
Are you interested in...
44
Yes.
45
Well, please sit down and I'll just take a few details.
46
Thank you.
47
Right.
48
Now, what name is it?
49
Jenny Chan.
50
Can you spell that, please?
51
Yes.
52
J-E-N-N-Y-C-H-A-N.
53
Right.
54
And what is your present address?
55
Seaview Guesthouse, 14 Hill Road.
56
Okay.
57
And do you know the phone number there?
58
Yes, I have it here.
59
2237 676.
60
But I'm only there after about 7 p.m.
61
So when would be the best time to catch you?
62
I suppose between nine and,
63
let me see, half past,
64
before I leave for the college.
65
Great.
66
And can I ask you your age?
67
I've just had my 19th birthday.
68
And how long would you want to stay with the host family?
69
I'm planning on staying a year,
70
but at the moment I'm definitely here for four months only.
71
I have to get an extension to my permit.
72
You're working on it?
73
Mm.
74
Fine.
75
And what will be your occupation while you're in the UK?
76
studying English
77
and what would you say your level of English is good I think I'd like to say advanced
78
but my written work is below the level of my spoken
79
so I suppose it's intermediate certainly your spoken English is advanced anyway which Which area do you think you would prefer?
80
Um, well, I'm studying right in the centre,
81
but I'd really like to live in the north-west.
82
That shouldn't be a great problem.
83
We usually have lots of families up there...
84
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
85
you have some time to look at questions six to ten.
86
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
87
And do you have any particular requirements for diet?
88
Well, I'm nearly a vegetarian.
89
Not quite.
90
Shall I say you are?
91
It's probably easier that way.
92
That would be best.
93
Anything about your actual room?
94
I would prefer my own facilities.
95
En suite, is that right?
96
Mm-hmm.
97
And also, if it's possible, a TV.
98
And I'd also like the house to have a real garden,
99
rather than just a yard.
100
Somewhere I could sit and be peaceful.
101
Is that all?
102
Well, I'm really serious about improving my English,
103
so I'd prefer to be the only guest, if that's possible.
104
No other guests.
105
Yes, you get more practice that way.
106
Anyway, obviously, all this is partly dependent on how much you're willing to pay.
107
What did you have in mind?
108
I was thinking in terms of about 60 to 80 pounds a week,
109
but I'd go up to 100 if it was something special.
110
Well, I don't think we'd have any problems finding something for you.
111
Oh, good.
112
And when would you want it for?
113
I'd like to move in approximately two weeks.
114
Let me see.
115
It's the 10th today, so if we go for the Monday,
116
it's the 23rd of March.
117
Yes.
118
Right.
119
Good.
120
And if I could ask one last question.
121
Thank you.

人気動画
この動画で話す練習をする理由は？
この動画は、英語を学びたい方、特に国家試験であるIELTSに向けたリスニングスキルを改善したい方に最適です。このセクションでは、学生がホストファミリーを探すために住宅アドバイザーと会話を交わす様子が描かれています。実際の会話形式なので、学習者はリアルなコミュニケーションの様子を体験できます。言語環境に身を置くことは、特に英語シャドーイングの練習に役立ちます。実際の会話に触れることで、理解力を深めるだけでなく、自然な会話の流れを学ぶことができるのです。
文法と表現のコンテキスト
この会話には、特に重要な文法構造や表現が含まれています。以下はその一部です：
- 質問の形式：「How can I help you?」（どうお手伝いできますか？）のように、相手に対して助けを申し出る際の一般的な表現が使われています。
- 確認とスペルの提示：「Can you spell that, please?」（そのスペルを教えていただけますか？）は、特に名前や地名を確認する際に役立つ重要なフレーズです。
- 丁寧な依頼：「please sit down」（どうぞお座りください）などの表現は、ビジネスやフォーマルな場面での丁寧さを示します。
これらの表現を理解し、実際の会話で使えるようになることは、英語の流暢さの向上に非常に役立ちます。
一般的な発音のトラップ
この動画で注意が必要な発音のポイントには、以下のようなものがあります：
- 名前の発音：「Jenny Chan」を発音する際、特に「Chan」の部分は地域によって異なる場合があります。正しく発音することで、相手に自分の名前を明確に伝えることができます。
- 会話の速さ：ネイティブスピーカーは会話を非常に早く行うことが多いため、特にシャドースピークやシャドースピーチの練習を通じて耳を慣らすことが重要です。
- アクセントの違い：「How can I help you?」などのフレーズでは、通常のイントネーションやアクセントを理解することが大切で、これが効果的なコミュニケーションの鍵となります。
これらの発音やアクセントに注意することで、より自然に英語を話す能力が向上します。シャドーイングやシンプルな反復練習を通じて、効果的に改善を促進しましょう。
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。
