1
Section 1 You will hear a conversation between a printing company employee and a customer.
2
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 5.
3
You will see that there is an example which has been done for you.
4
On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.
5
Good afternoon.
6
Welcome to Matrix Printing.
7
I'm John Smith.
8
How can I help you?
9
Good afternoon.
10
I'm here to reprint a brochure for our hotel.
11
There are some pages that need revising.
12
The customer says the brochure sample needs revising.
13
So, brochure has been written in the space.
14
Now we shall begin.
15
You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time.
16
Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.
17
Good afternoon.
18
Welcome to Matrix Printing.
19
I'm John Smith.
20
How can I help you?
21
Good afternoon.
22
I'm here to reprint a brochure for our hotel.
23
There are some pages that need revising.
24
Sure, how may I address you?
25
Oh, I'm Mary Jane from Central Hotel Chains.
26
Nice to meet you.
27
I've got samples of the previous version.
28
I assume it is your company's advertising brochure?
29
Yes.
30
What exactly is the problem?
31
Well, it was printed the year before, so some of the information is already out of date.
32
There are also a couple of problems with the layout.
33
Firstly, the letters of the address on the front page are far too small.
34
It's hard to see when glancing at the cover.
35
How big do you need it to be?
36
Increase the letters by three font sizes.
37
Just a minute.
38
Let me take notes of your requirements.
39
Okay, what else needs changing?
40
The information regarding the pool should be deleted because it is currently under renovation and is not available.
41
So, all of the relevant descriptions on page 2 should be removed?
42
What do we replace it with?
43
We can't just leave the whole page blank.
44
Just fill it in with the introduction of our newly opened gym.
45
I've included all the relevant information here in this flash drive.
46
Let me check.
47
Erm, I see.
48
No problem then.
49
What is also bothering us is that the description under the top photos on page 4 is incorrect.
50
The word 'lounge' needs to be replaced with 'reception'.
51
Fully noted.
52
Is that all?
53
No, there is more.
54
Turn to page 5.
55
We feel that showing merely the picture of our exterior and interior decoration does not fully represent the appeal of our hotel.
56
On second thought, we've decided to use a picture with the view of the hotel.
57
Do you have the original copy of the picture?
58
Yes, it is also enclosed in the flash drive.
59
OK.
60
We'll re -edit the whole layout of the photos.
61
Great!
62
Thank you.
63
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, You have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.
64
Thank you.
65
Thank you.
66
Thank you.
67
Thank you you Thank you.
68
Thank you.
69
Thank you.
70
Thank you.
71
Thank you.
72
Thank you.
73
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
74
Thank you.
75
Let's turn to the next page.
76
Yes, what's wrong with that?
77
It seems perfectly fine to me.
78
At first sight it seems fine, but according to the feedback of the customers, the prices do not stand out.
79
So, we want to change the print from black to red to make it pop out.
80
OK, I've made notes of all of your requests.
81
Is there anything else?
82
I appreciate it.
83
Just one final request.
84
Could you translate the whole brochure into Spanish?
85
We have customers worldwide, you know, especially those from Latin countries.
86
No problem.
87
What about other languages, like Japanese, Chinese or German?
88
These are our most popular target languages.
89
I have to ask the manager about the Chinese version.
90
There's been a surging number of Chinese clients during recent years.
91
However, we don't need German or Japanese translations, as we currently don't have many customers from those two countries.
92
Sure.
93
Just keep me updated.
94
it before the end of July.
95
It's late June now.
96
Roughly, it'll take three weeks to re -edit.
97
So we'll definitely be ready before the deadline.
98
Great.
99
To where shall we send the samples?
100
The address is number 9 Green Drive, Clifton, NY21300.
101
How do you spell Clifton?
102
C -L -I -F -F -T -O -N.
103

104
And the telephone number?
105
It's 903036602.
106
Also, if you have any further questions, you can reach me through this number.
107

このビデオでスピーキングを練習する理由

このビデオは、印刷会社の従業員と顧客の会話を通じて、実際の英語のコミュニケーションの流れを学ぶ絶好の教材です。英語シャドーイングを実践することで、リスニングやスピーキングのスキルを向上させることができます。実用的な状況における会話を聞き、真似することで、語彙力や文法を自然に身につけることができるのです。また、YouTubeで英語学習する際には、メイクセルフとの比較でリスニング能力を強化し、正確な発音とイントネーションを学べます。

文法と表現のコンテキスト

ビデオでは、いくつかの重要な文法や表現が使用されています。特に注目すべきは以下のポイントです:

  • 見積もりや依頼の言い方:「How may I address you?」という表現は、丁寧に相手の名前を尋ねる方法です。このような表現を覚えることで、ビジネスシーンでの会話がスムーズになります。
  • 情報の修正・更新:「some of the information is already out of date」というフレーズは、内容が古くなっていることを示します。過去の情報を修正する際に使える便利な表現です。
  • サイズの変更に関する指示:「Increase the letters by three font sizes」は、具体的な指示を出す際の文例です。この形式を使って、変更要求を明確に伝えることができます。

こうした表現は、ビジネスを行う上で非常に重要なスキルです。特に、shadow speechを通じて実際の会話に取り入れることで、使いこなしが容易になります。

一般的な発音の罠

このビデオでは、いくつかの発音のトラップやアクセントが見受けられます:

  • 「brochure」の発音:この単語は、フランス語由来であるため、発音が難しいと感じるかもしれません。「ブロシュール」という音を繰り返し練習しましょう。
  • 「lounge」と「reception」の違い:これらの単語の発音は微妙に異なりますが、文脈によって意味が変わります。特にビジネスシーンでは正確な発音が求められるため、注意が必要です。

発音を改善するためには、英語の発音を良くするための練習が不可欠です。ビデオを利用して、繰り返し音声を真似することで、自然な発音を習得しましょう。

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。
