At the end of the test,

you will be given 10 minutes to transfer your answers to an answer sheet.

Section 1.
12
You will hear a man telephoning a friend to find out about their local public library.
13
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 4.
14
You will see that there is an example that has been done for you.
15
On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.
16
Hello?
17
Hi, Susie.
18
It's Paul here.
19
How are you?
20
Enjoying your new job?
21
You're working at the library, aren't you?
22
Yes.
23
I started when the library reopened a month ago.
24
It's great.
25
The woman says that the library reopened a month ago.
26
So month has been written in the space.
27
Now we shall begin.
28
You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time.
29
Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 4.
30
Hello?
31
Hi, Susie.
32
It's Paul here.
33
How are you?
34
Enjoying your new job?
35
You're working at the library, aren't you?
36
Yes, I started when the library reopened a month ago.
37
It's great.
38
Actually, Carol and I have been meaning to join for a while.
39
Oh, you should.
40
It doesn't cost anything.
41
And the new library has all sorts of facilities.
42
It's not just a place where you borrow books.
43
For instance, there's an area with comfortable seats where you can sit and read the magazines they have there.
44
Some people spend the whole morning there.
45
Hmm.
46
Wish I had that amount of time to spend.
47
Yes.
48
You must be pretty busy at present,
49
with the children and everything.
50
We are, yes.
51
But we're hoping to get away this summer.
52
We're thinking of going to Greece.
53
Well, we've got a much larger section of the library devoted to travel books now,
54
so you should come and have a look.
55
I can't remember if there's anything specifically on Greece,
56
but I should think so.
57
OK.
58
Now, Carol's organising a project for the history class she teaches at school.
59
It's about life in the town a hundred years ago.
60
Do you have anything that might be useful?
61
Yes.
62
Actually, we've now got a new section with materials on the history of the town and surrounding region.
63
Right.
64
I'll tell her.
65
You can't always find that sort of thing on the internet.
66
Now, in the old library,
67
there used to be a separate room with reference books.
68
It was a really nice, quiet room.
69
Yes, we've put those books in the main part of the library now,
70
but we do have a room called the community room.
71
It can be hired out for meetings,
72
but at other times people can use it to study.
73
I might use that.
74
It's hard to find anywhere quiet at home sometimes.
75
I can't remember how old your son and daughter are.
76
We've introduced a special section of fiction written specially for teenagers,
77
but they might be a bit young for that.
78
Yes, they would be.
79
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
80
you have some time to look at questions 5 to 10.
81
Now listen and answer questions 5 to 10.
82
Well, we do have lots of activities for younger children.
83
Yes.
84
For example, we have a science club.
85
At the next meeting, they're going to be doing experiments with stuff that everyone has in the kitchen,
86
sugar and flour and so on.
87
They might be interested, yes.
88
And we have a competition for children called Reading Challenge.
89
That doesn't begin until after the end of term.
90
They have to read six books and they get a certificate if they manage it.
91
So that gives them something to do while they're on holiday instead of getting bored.
92
That's the idea.
93
And there's special activities for adults too.
94
On Friday, we have a local author called Tanya Streep who's going to be talking about her new novel.
95
It's called Catch the Mouse and she based the story on a crime that actually took place here years ago.
96
Right.
97
We're not free on Friday,
98
but I'll look out for the book.
99
Now, this probably isn't for you,
100
but we do have IT support available for members.
101
We get quite a few older people coming along who are wanting to get up to speed with computer technology.
102
It's on Tuesday mornings.
103
They don't need to make an appointment or anything.
104
They just turn up.
105
Well, my mother might be interested.
106
I'll let her know.
107
OK.
108
And there's another service which you wouldn't expect from a library,
109
which is a free medical check-up.
110
The hospital arranges for someone to come along and measure the level of sugar in your blood,
111
and they check cholesterol levels at the same time.
112
Really?
113
Yes, but that's only for the over-sixties, so you wouldn't qualify.
114
OK.
115
Well, I'll tell my mother.
116
She might be interested.
117
What other information?
118
Well, we do have a little shop with things like wall charts
119
and greetings cards and also stamps so you can post the cards straight away,
120
which is really useful.
121
Yeah.
122
Well, I'll bring the children round at the weekend and we'll join.
123
Oh, one more thing.
124
I'll be bringing the car.
125
Is there parking available?
126
Yes, and it's free in the evening and at weekends.
127
Perfect.
128
Well, thanks, Susie.
129
See you soon.

このレッスンについて
このレッスンでは、公共図書館についての会話を通して、リスニングとスピーキング能力を向上させます。特に英語を学ぶ際に重要な実践として、会話の内容を聞き取り、理解し、自分の言葉で再現することを目指します。IELTSスピーキング対策としても役立つこの練習は、実際の会話のテンポに合わせて自分の声を重ねる「shadowspeak」技術に特化しています。
重要な語彙とフレーズ
- 公共図書館 - public library
- 再開する - reopen
- 費用がかからない - cost nothing
- 快適な座席 - comfortable seats
- 雑誌を読む - read the magazines
- 忙しい - busy
- 利用する - use
- 新しい施設 - new facilities
練習のヒント
この動画の会話は、自然なスピードで展開されますので、初めて聞く際には少し注意深く聞くことが必要です。「shadow speech」技術を使って、最初に音声を聞いた後に独り言のように声を出す練習を行うことをお勧めします。特に図書館についての話題は身近であり、日常生活にも関連がありますので、自分の経験や意見を加えてみてください。例えば、「私も図書館で勉強しています。」や「快適な座席があるので、長い時間過ごすことができます。」といったフレーズを自分の言葉で言う練習をすることで、英語スピーキング練習がより効果的になります。
また、会話の中で強調されたフレーズや音の高さに注目しながら、「shadowspeak」で声を重ねることで、自分の発音やイントネーションを改善することができます。こうした練習を繰り返すことで、IELTSスピーキング対策にもなるだけでなく、より流暢な英会話が可能になるでしょう。
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。
