シャドーイング練習: IELTS Speaking Band 8.5 Mock Test | Impressive Vocabulary - 動画で英語スピーキングを学ぶ

Good afternoon, my name is Eli Howes.

Can you please tell me your full name?

Yes, of course.

My name is Khomein Ruzibaev.

And what should I call you?

You can just call me Ruzi.

Okay, Ruzi, in this first part, I'd like to ask you some questions about yourself.

Let's talk about your hometown.

Is your hometown a big city or a small place?

Well, my hometown is actually a simple countryside town, which is located around 20 or 30 months away from Tashkent,

the capital city of Uzbekistan.

I usually go there whenever I want to rest or gather my thoughts after a long and boring day.

How long have you been living in this small place?

I think I have been living there for the better part of my whole childhood.

Unfortunately, I cannot spend much time there because I have to work and my work is located in Tashkent.

Is there anything you dislike about this place?

Oh yeah, the roads, they're very inconvenient because like if you have a transport like a car,

you cannot really drive safely because you might bump into something, a hole maybe.

So if I could change something about my hometown, it probably would be the road systems.

Let's move on.

Let's talk about asking for help.

Do you ask for help when you have a problem?

Well, due to my personality, I, to be honest, all the time I try to help myself

because I don't like asking other people whether they could help me or not.

But sometimes I have to.

I kind of have to because there are issues that might not be resolved only by myself.

For example, whenever I need help with improving my speaking abilities,

I usually go to my old teacher who has more experience and better knowledge than me, and he helps me.

When was the last time you asked for help?

I think the last time was when I needed to develop my demo lesson for the interview.

So my teacher who had been working in the company

which I was applying for for five years kind of had you know free time because he was on the vacation.

So I asked him for help and together we developed my demo lesson and I passed my interview with flying colors.

And do you think it's good to offer help when people ask you?

It depends on situation.

Sometimes people might ask for help because they're lazy, but at times you kind of need to give a lift to them.

For example, last time I had one issue with my colleague.

He was about to go for a vacation, but his group of students had an exam next month.

So I offered my help, but actually, you know, I regretted it because they didn't need any help.

And I just put a lot of workload on myself.

So instead, I could have just, you know, rested and not worry about it.

Let's move on.

Let's talk about staying at home.

Are you the type of person who likes to stay at home?

Well, I have itchy feet, to be honest.

I like traveling around my hometown or around the capital city,

but in most cases I find myself enjoying my presence at home because there I can relax and be myself,

not worrying about other people around me or about crossing the road or something.

So I would say that I'm a home alone person.

What do you do when you stay at home?

Well, usual boring stuff.

But the first thing I try to do is read.

So I like reading, to be honest.

And I have a pile of books in my room.

And I try to just dig in and read everything possible, if I have time, of course.

And when you were a child, did you spend a lot of time at home alone?

Yes, actually.

I used to be alone all the time because my parents were kind of busy.

They had to work to support our family.

So I was the one responsible for the household chores.

And I also would look after my cats because nobody else could.

We're going to move on to part two

and in this part I'm going to give you a topic

and I'd like you to talk about it for one to two minutes.

All right, remember you have one to two minutes for this so don't worry if I stop you, I'll tell you when the time is up.

Can you start speaking now please?

Yep, of course.

So having lived in a place where a lot of people like discounts and cheap offerings,

I know a great deal of people who like buying stuff in a low price,

but the most stingiest of all of them would be my grandma.

Her name is Sarvinos.

So she usually likes to buy food.

And when I tell you she likes to buy food, it means that she just,

you know, hoards everything in the fridge and usually uh she goes for something

that is you know the cheapest i remember whenever uh we

used to go for a walk she would all all the

time drag me to bazaar bazaar is like you know gathering

of stalls where you can buy food cheaper than in stores

or supermarkets so she also would argue with uh sellers trying to find a good price

and persuade the let's say the store manager to

lower the price to the one that she desires

and the reason why she uh let's say prefers uh doing

so is that she comes from the background of war so she's a boomer baby we call them i think and

in the past they didn't used to have a lot of food

or money so they had to kind of find their way out of this

so they would do exactly like uh what my grandma is

doing trying to find the most cheapest things food for example and setting up enough money to spend it on something

let's say more essential like medicine maybe donations in house or any other things

I also have other people who are similar to my grandma, for example my mother, but she's not a lie.

Thank you.

Do you think it's a good thing to save money?

We cannot say that it's a good thing because you cannot set it in stone.

Sometimes you have to spend money because if you just hoard it in one place,

you will eventually just die because of old age and have a pie of gold and somebody else will spend it eventually.

Hey, we've been talking about someone who likes to buy things at low prices, and I'd like to discuss with you one or two more general questions related to this.

Let's first of all talk about places to shop.

So you mentioned going to the bazaar to do your shopping or going to markets.

A lot of people also like to go to shopping malls.

What do you think is the difference in the kind of products and shopping experience in these different places?

100

So in the market, I think there is an order because everything is fixed, the prices are fixed, there are no people,

101

just the staff members that are there to assist you.

102

But in bazaars, it is different with such kind of vibe where you can go anywhere and everyone and everything,

103

they are different, totally different.

104

Because you can, for example, look for clothes, let's say, And you might go to one place.

105

In one place, they might tell you that the price is $15, $16.

106

But then you might not like it and go for something else.

107

And there, if you are persuasive enough, you can get price down to, let's say, $10.

108

And you also can make friends who, let's say, will assist you in finding the best prices.

109

Well, people who haven't, for example, engaged in bargaining with sellers, like your grandmother, you know, she's an expert by the sounds of things.

110

What advice or what tips would you give them on how to bargain successfully?

111

although i'm not myself good at this but i would advise one thing

112

and it is trying to be nice because uh sellers usually like

113

when you treat them like human beings uh if they notice

114

that you see them as barriers of getting a good price

115

then usually they um you know uh raise the prices for you

116

but if you're nice to them if you talk uh long enough to them then you will have friends and lower prices.

117

In your country, would you say that there's a big generational difference in the places that people like to shop?

118

For example, you mentioned how your grandmother likes to go to the bazaar.

119

These days I have seen a tendency that younger people prefer marketplaces or bazaars because,

120

well, they don't like talking.

121

the generation has changed and they prefer just you know doing something without any effort of communication

122

so instead they go for places that have more expensive items

123

and products so they don't go because of that okay

124

and what about online shopping is that popular

125

and prevalent in your country i think recently it has become big in uzbekistan because uh the analog of amazon

126

has been opened here.

127

It is called Zoom.

128

And a lot of people, even the elderly, they try to buy stuff from there because it is easier.

129

You do not have to go anywhere.

130

And you can also get some, let's say, things that you normally cannot find in physical stores or bazaars.

131

Okay, let's move on.

132

Let's talk about advertising.

133

Some people feel that adverts shouldn't be

134

targeting children especially for example unhealthy products such as sweets

135

and chocolates what do you think about that I totally agree with

136

that because children let's say they're easy to manipulate so

137

if you show them an art of candy

138

and let's say put some kind of influencer who is popular among the children children will buy it even

139

if they do not like it so I think it should be illegal

140

or there should be some kind of restrictions to prevent children from getting influenced in a wrong way.

141

And do you think that should come to the company's discretion

142

or do you think that there should be for example top-down governmental regulations and restrictions on the type of adverts that appear?

143

Yeah, the government, the legislative power is responsible for controlling everything because I don't think that any other organization can do that.

144

Okay, do you think that this will happen more

145

and more in the future especially as for example advertising becomes more effective

146

and efficient at getting especially young or vulnerable people to spend their money

147

so i think yes because uh ai has been getting blind share of attention of companies

148

so and companies right now they're they do not need people to make ads instead they make ai do it so

149

a lot of advertisements will come out eventually and they will target everyone

150

so without any regulations i don't think

151

that we will live in a peaceful society okay thank you very much

152

that is the end of the speaking test very good speaking

153

test how do you feel well i feel like i do not deserve higher than seven blimey really

154

because i was i'm thinking is this eight or is this 8.5

155

oh really that's that to me that is wild that you think

156

that could be band seven that was a phenomenal speaking test

157

and i'll tell you why it was

158

so phenomenal first of all your fluency is a very high level you're wonderful at communicating both simple

159

and complex ideas you can engage with any question

160

and you can talk at length on a range of different

161

topics using specific vocabulary your part two topic was very well organized and very charismatic you told your story very well,

162

taking into consideration using discourse markers and putting in information in the correct order.

163

Your Lexis is great, you use a wide range of vocabulary,

164

you're very good at communicating your message and you pepper your language with interesting idioms that are appropriately used.

165

Your grammar is very accurate,

166

you've got wonderful control of different tenses and you can use both simple and advanced grammar appropriately to convey your message

167

and your pronunciation is also wonderful you've got great rhythm in your voice

168

and you speak at a very nice pace and sometimes slowly

169

and sometimes you speed up

170

and it's very good at communicating your message thank you very much it's

171

so nice to hear from you yeah

172

and now let's talk about some of the things that would improve

173

because well you you feel that that was band seven

174

so i wonder what do you think you could improve on

175

oh to be honest i think uh actually i'm even aiming for band nine near future.

176

So I think there is something I could improve in terms of vocabulary, grammar, because I think I like idiomatic language.

177

Maybe I like idiomatic language and some advanced phrasal verbs, words.

178

And also I think there is hesitation in my words in some parts.

179

There wasn't that much hesitation, to be honest.

180

I'm sure when you watch this video, you're going to be very impressed with yourself.

181

But I can tell that you're someone that holds yourself to a high standard, which is a good thing because that helps you improve.

182

But in general, very little hesitation.

183

And I think you're really capable of getting your band nine.

184

So this is what I would recommend to you to help you get that band nine.

185

First of all, I don't think you really need to improve the range of your vocabulary.

186

I would focus a bit more on accuracy.

187

you said things like I'm a home alone person I think there's a better way of explaining

188

that I'm the type of person who likes to spend time

189

at home for example you said give a give a lift to them

190

and I would just change that to give them a lift so just kind of looking at the word order

191

but in general your vocabulary is very good you used phrases

192

like to dig in to hoard money you have seen a tendency

193

when I asked about the government you you used a paraphrase

194

and you talked about how legislative power you talked about how

195

the lion's share of something goes in into one place

196

so in general your range of vocabulary is very good the thing about band nine is it's all about accuracy

197

so at this stage I think you just need to be

198

as I'm sure you're doing listening to lots of podcasts having

199

lots of high level conversations discussing lots of difficult topics and

200

that would help you to get the accuracy to

201

that band nine level with grammar there's there's still a slight confusion with articles

202

which i think is quite common in uzbekistan in general i've interviewed a lot of people from uzbekistan

203

and i would say you're in the top five percent in

204

terms of article use it's obviously something you've worked on

205

and there's just a few slips

206

so you would say something like it depends on situation instead

207

of it depends on the situation um on the vacation instead

208

of on vacation you said around capital city instead of around the capital city

209

so there is still slight confusion with articles but in general this is very well controlled form?

210

Well, yeah, sometimes I, because my English, it became, you know, let's say a bit street language,

211

like I transformed into a street language, articles can be omitted, unfortunately.

212

Right.

213

So maybe if I were you and I was aiming for that ban 9, I would be writing down lots of articles

214

and using for example the AI function on English Pro Tips just to make sure that you're using your articles correctly.

215

For fluency and coherence I think you're already at

216

that band nine level even though you felt that you hesitated I think you're already at band nine for fluency and coherence.

217

I think you speak at length and you order your thoughts very well.

218

The next thing that you could possibly improve on but it's a difficult thing to improve on is pronunciation

219

particularly with two sounds the th sound so words like something something

220

so you can see my teeth my tongue comes between my teeth for the sound something

221

and you say it more like something and

222

so it's almost like your your tongue is staying behind your

223

teeth something something the other sound is the w sound words

224

like well you start you make it sound slightly more like yell

225

so if you wanted to get band nine i would be focusing on accuracy

226

and i'd be focusing on that sound and really training your your body

227

and your vocal muscles to be able to pronounce that th

228

and that w sound oh understood that's a pretty good advice yes

229

so thank you so much for coming on

230

and doing such a wonderful speaking test people are going to really benefit from this incredible performance.

231

Thank you, Sveoli, for having me here.

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。
