Test 1.
5
This is the IELTS Listening Test.
6
You will hear a number of different recordings and you will have to answer questions on what you hear.
7
There will be time for you to read the instructions and questions and you will have a chance to check your work.
8
All the recordings will be played once only.
9
The test is in four parts.
10
At the end of the test you will be given 10 minutes to transfer your answers to the answer sheet.
11
Now turn to part one.
12
Part 1.
13
You will hear a woman phoning a friend to get information about a job agency.
14
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 5.
15
Now listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.
16
Hello, William.
17
This is Amber.
18
You said to phone if I wanted to get more information about the job agency you mentioned.
19
Is now a good time?
20
Hi, Amber.
21
Yes, fine.
22
So, the agency I was talking about is called Bankside.
23
They're based in Docklands.
24
I can tell you the address now.
25
497 Eastside.
26
OK, thanks.
27
So, is there anyone in particular I should speak to there?
28
The agent I always deal with is called Becky Jameson.
29
Let me write that down.
30
Becky...
31
Jameson.
32
J-A-M-I-E-S-O-N.
33
Do you have her direct line?
34
Yes, it's in my contact somewhere.
35
Right, here we are.
36
07866510333. I wouldn't call her until the afternoon if I were you.
37
She's always really busy in the morning trying to fill last-minute vacancies.
38
She's really helpful and friendly, so I'm sure it would be worth getting in touch with her for an informal chat.
39
It's mainly clerical and admin jobs they deal with, isn't it?
40
That's right.
41
I know you're hoping to find a full-time job in the media eventually, but Becky mostly recruits temporary staff for the finance sector,
42
which will look good on your CV and generally pays better too.
43
Yeah, I'm just a bit worried because I don't have much office experience.
44
I wouldn't worry.
45
They'll probably start you as a receptionist or something like that.
46
So what's important for that kind of job isn't so much having business skills or knowing lots of different computer systems, it's communication that really matters,
47
so you'd be fine there.
48
And you'll pick up office skills really quickly on the job.
49
It's not that complicated.
50
OK, good.
51
So how long do people generally need temporary staff for?
52
It would be great if I could get something lasting at least a month.
53
That shouldn't be too difficult.
54
But you're more likely to be offered something for a week at first, which might get extended.
55
It's unusual to be sent somewhere for just a day or two.
56
Right.
57
I've heard the pay isn't too bad.
58
Better than working in a shop or a restaurant.
59
Oh, yes, definitely.
60
The hourly rate is about ten pounds, eleven if you're lucky.
61
That's pretty good.
62
I was only expecting to get eight or nine pounds an hour.
63
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions six to ten.
64
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
65
Do you want me to tell you anything about the registration process?
66
Yes, please.
67
I know you have to have an interview.
68
The interview usually takes about an hour and you should arrange that about a week in advance.
69
I suppose I should dress smartly if it's for office work.
70
I can probably borrow a suit from mum.
71
Good idea.
72
It's better to look too smart than too casual.
73
Will I need to bring copies of my exam certificates or anything like that?
74
No, they don't need to see those, I don't think.
75
What about my passport?
76
Oh yes, they will ask to see that.
77
Okay.
78
I wouldn't get stressed about the interview, though.
79
It's just a chance for them to build a relationship with you
80
so they can try and match you to a job which you'll like.
81
So there are questions about personality that they always ask candidates, fairly basic ones, and they probably won't ask anything too difficult,
82
like what your plans are for the future.
83
Hope not.
84
Anyway, there are lots of benefits to using an agency.
85
For example, the interview will be useful because they'll give you feedback on your performance so you can improve next time.
86
And they'll have access to jobs which aren't advertised.
87
Exactly.
88
Most temporary jobs aren't advertised.
89
And I expect finding a temporary job this way takes a lot less time.
90
It's much easier than ringing up individual companies.
91
Yes, indeed.
92
Well, I think I've covered everything.
93
That is the end of part one.
94
You now have one minute to check your answers to part one.
95
Part one.
96
You will hear a woman phoning a friend to get information about a job agency.

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、リアルな会話の状況を通じて英語を学ぶ絶好の機会です。特に、IELTS スピーキング対策として非常に効果的です。このセクションでは、仕事探しに関連する会話が展開され、実際のコミュニケーションの流れや、文脈に即した表現を学ぶことができます。ビデオ内でのやり取りを真似ることで、自然な英会話スキルを向上させ、リスニング能力も高めることができます。また、英語シャドーイングの練習を取り入れることで、発音の正確さや言い回しの流暢さを向上させることが期待できます。
文法と表現の文脈分析
以下は、スピーカーが使用する重要な文法構造や表現です：
- Is now a good time? - 質問形式で相手の都合を聞く表現。
- Do you have her direct line? - 具体的な情報を求める時に使用する表現。ビジネスコミュニケーションでよく使われます。
- It's mainly clerical and admin jobs they deal with, isn't it? - 相手の理解を確認しながら情報提供をするフレーズ。英語の会話では非常に重要な技術です。
- So what's important for that kind of job isn't so much having business skills... - 範疇を限定する表現で、重要なポイントを伝える技巧。
これらの表現を通して、自身のスピーキングで使える文法の幅を広げましょう。また、shadowspeaksやshadowspeakなども参考にしながら、実際の会話に即した翻訳を練習できます。
一般的な発音の罠
ビデオに出てくるいくつかのトリッキーな言葉やアクセントについて考えましょう。特に、Jamesonの発音（J-A-M-I-E-S-O-N）は英語のスピーキングでよく間違われがちです。また、「clerical」や「admin」のような専門用語も注意が必要です。これらの単語を正しく発音できるようになることで、ビジネスシーンでの自信を高めることができます。
さらに、会話全体の流れに合わせてshadowingを行うことをお勧めします。この技法により、リズムやイントネーションが身につき、より自然なスピーチを実現することができます。
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。
