Now turn to part three, questions fourteen to nineteen.
2
You will hear a young woman who has applied for an office job talking about her jobs abroad.
3
For each question, fill in the missing information in the numbered space.
4
You now have twenty seconds to look at part three.
5
Now we are ready to start.
6
Listen carefully.
7
You will hear the recording twice.
8
Hello, Miss Brownlow.
9
Come and sit down.
10
Now, I'd like you to tell me more about the two years you spent abroad after leaving school.
11
Oh, right.
12
Well, um, I decided to go abroad to see the world.
13
I only intended staying for six months, but in the end, I stayed two years.
14
First of all, I worked for a family.
15
I looked after their three children, all under the age of ten, so I was kept very busy.
16
I really liked the family, but after six months I was ready for a change, although I didn't want to come home.
17
Then I applied for a job in a hotel as a receptionist.
18
That way I could still practice my languages.
19
And it was really good because I had my own room in the hotel
20
and I had all my meals there as well.
21
And then the hotel closed down.
22
But the manager offered me a job in a bakery.
23
It belonged to his brother, and I worked there for almost a year.
24
At the beginning it was really hard because I had to get up so early in the morning, around four o'clock every day.
25
But once I got used to that, it was great, because I'd finished work by two o'clock in the afternoon, and the rest of the time was my own.
26
But my parents thought I ought to come home and get a proper job.
27
I suppose they were right.
28
So that's when I applied for the job with the Bank International, in their foreign department, and so I continued to use my languages.
29
You've had quite a lot of experience, haven't you?
30
Now, if I could ask you...
31
Now listen again.
32
Hello, Miss Brownlow.
33

この動画で鍛える英語スピーキングの目標
この会話は、日常的な就職面接や自己経歴説明に必要な流暢な語り口と時系列の展開能力を養うのに最適です。特に、「海外での経験」を詳しく話す場面では、出来事の順番や感情を自然に伝えるスキルが求められます。これはIELTS スピーキング対策や実践的な英語スピーキング練習にも役立つマイルストーンです。
フレーズバンク：使い回せる表現
- 「I only intended staying for... but in the end, I stayed...」（〜と思っていたが、結局〜した）- 予定と実際の違いを表す時に便利です。
- 「I was kept very busy」（とても忙しかった）- 単なる「I was busy」よりもダイナミックな表現です。
- 「I was ready for a change」（変化を求めていた）- 転職や生活の変更を話す時に使えます。
- 「once I got used to that, it was great」（慣れるととても良かった）- 困難な経験の先にある良い結果を伝えるフレーズです。
弱点を直そう：発音とリズムのポイント
この動画はshadow speech（シャドーイング）の練習に最適です。特に、会話の中で頻繁に現れる「um」「well」などのフィラーワードの使い方や、文の途中でのポーズの取り方が自然なリズムを作り出します。「around four o'clock every day」のような時間表現の発音や、「the hotel closed down but the manager offered...」のような接続詞の発音の弱まり方を学ぶことで、英語シャドーイングの精度が上がります。YouTubeで英語学習をする際は、動画を2〜3回繰り返し聴き、すぐ後ろから追って話すシャドーイングを行いましょう。これはIELTS スピーキング対策だけでなく、日常的な英語スピーキング練習にも効果的です。
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。
