Hi, this is IELTS, IELTS .com, Lesson 185.
2
This week we are looking at a part 2 cue card
3
that asks you to speak about a place you visited where everything was expensive.
4
I'll read the cue card to you now.
5
Talk about a place you visited where everything was expensive.
6
You should say: what the place was when you went there, why you think everything there was expensive,
7
and explain whether or not you would visit this place again.
8
Alright, first thing, let's listen to the sample so you can hear the model spoken naturally.
9
Here it is.
10
We will now start part two of the exam.
11
Start speaking now, please.
12
A place I visited that I found to be exceptionally expensive is Dubai, UAE.
13
I visited the city about two years ago during my winter holidays.
14
I stayed in a luxurious area near the iconic Burj Khalifa and I was immediately struck by the opulence everywhere.
15
The hotels, restaurants, and even everyday activities seem tailored to a high -end clientele.
16
For instance, I recall dining at a restaurant with a view of the Dubai fountain, and while the meal was amazing, the bill left me speechless.
17
There are a few reasons why everything there is so expensive.
18
For one, Dubai is a global hub for luxury tourism, catering to wealthy visitors from around the world.
19
The city invests heavily in creating world -class entertainment, and the costs are naturally passed on to consumers.
20
Also, many of the goods and services are imported, And this, of course, adds to their price.
21
Despite the high costs, I thoroughly enjoyed my time there
22
because the city offers a unique blend of cultural experiences and stunning architecture.
23
I would happily visit again.
24
Thank you.

And the point of the exercise is to try to adjust your pronunciation to sound as much like the model as possible.

このレッスンについて

このレッスンでは、「すべてが高価な場所」について話す機会を提供します。特に、高級観光地であるドバイを例に挙げ、旅行の体験や高い価格の理由について学びます。この内容を通じて、英語での表現力を高め、具体的な状況における会話力を向上させることを目指します。YouTubeで英語学習をしながら、聞く力と話す力の両方を強化しましょう。

練習のコツ

このレッスンでは、「shadowspeak」というテクニックを活用して、英語の発音を良くするための練習を行います。ドバイについてのサンプル文を聞き、その後音声を真似しながら話す練習をしましょう。特にこのレッスンでは速度やトーンに注意し、話す際のリズムを掴むことが大切です。

まず、サンプル文を数回聞いてみてください。それに続いて、言われたフレーズを声に出して繰り返します。この反復練習は「shadow speak」の一環です。発音やイントネーションを意識しながら、できるだけモデルの発音に近づけるよう努力してみてください。

リズムに乗って話すことができれば、自信を持って様々な場面で英語を使えるようになります。動画を何度も観ながら、自分の声を録音してみるのも良いでしょう。自分の発音を確認することで、さらに改善点を見つけやすくなります。

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。
