CD 2 This is the Cambridge Preliminary English Test, number 3.

There are four parts to the test.

You will hear each part twice.
4
For each part of the test, there will be time for you to look through the questions, and time for you to check your answers.
5
Write your answers on the question paper.
6
You will have six minutes at the end of the test to copy your answers onto the answer sheet.
7
The recording will now be stopped.
8
Please ask any questions now because you must not speak during the test.
9
Now open your question paper and look at part one.
10
There are seven questions in this part.
11
For each question, there are three pictures and a short recording.
12
Choose the correct picture and put a tick in the box below it.
13
Before we start, here is an example.
14
What's the time?
15
Have you got the time?
16
Yes, it's twenty past three.
17
The first picture is correct, so there is a tick in box A.
18
Look at the three pictures for question one now.
19
Now we are ready to start.
20
Listen carefully.
21
You will hear each recording twice.

23
Oh, I'm so sorry I'm late.

I missed the bus.

I was trying to decide whether to walk or go back and get my bike when I saw my neighbour.

Luckily, he offered me a lift because he works near here.

2. Where does the pollution come from?
33
The stream is really dirty by the time it reaches the valley, but we've discovered where the pollution comes from.
34
We already knew that the water was pure in the mountains at the top, so we realised the pollution must come from somewhere in the forest.
35
There is a village above the forest, but we tested the water there and it was fine.

Now listen again.

The football match starts at 2.30, but we should get there at half past one.
42
The coach will pick us up at ten to one, as it'll take us about 40 minutes to drive there.
43
So we'll meet in the school car park.
44
Don't be late, boys, will you?

Is the book in this bag for Mum, then?

この動画は誰におすすめ?

PET(Cambridge Preliminary English Test)のリスニング対策をしたい中級レベルの学習者にぴったりです。特に、IELTS スピーキング対策や日常会話の理解力を上げたい人にも役立ちます。リスニングだけでなく、shadowspeak(シャドーイング)の練習に使えるリアルな会話が満載で、実践的な英語力向上につながります。

覚えておきたいフレーズとイディオム

動画の会話からピックアップした便利な表現を紹介します。

  • offered me a lift:「車で送ってくれた」。友人や隣人から車で移動を手伝ってもらう場面でよく使います。
  • pure (water):「(水が)清らかな」。自然環境や水質を話す時に必要な単語です。
  • ten to one:「12時50分」。時間の言い方のバリエーションで、試験でよく出る表現です。

発音を磨くコツ

この動画のスピーカーは明瞭なイギリス英語で話しています。英語の発音を良くするには、英語シャドーイング(shadow speak)が効果的です。具体的には、スピーカーの後に1秒遅れで同じように話す練習です。特に、「twenty past three」のような時間の言い方や「pollution」のような長い単語のアクセント(pə-luː-ʃən)に注意してください。shadowspeakを続けると、イントネーションやリズムが自然に身につき、IELTS スピーキング対策にも繋がります。

毎日10分ずつシャドーイングを続けると、発音だけでなく聴解力も向上し、自信をつけることができますよ。

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。
