Section 1.
2
You will hear a conversation between a printing company employee and a customer.
3
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 5.
4
You will see that there is an example which has been done for you.
5
On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.
6
Good afternoon.
7
Welcome to Matrix Printing.
8
I'm John Smith.
9
How can I help you?
10
Good afternoon.
11
I'm here to reprint a brochure for our hotel.
12
There are some pages that need revising.
13
The customer says the brochure sample needs revising.
14
So, 'brochure' has been written in the space.
15
Now we shall begin.
16
You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time.
17
Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.
18
Good afternoon.
19
Welcome to Matrix Printing.
20
I'm John Smith.
21
How can I help you?
22
Good afternoon.
23
I'm here to reprint a brochure for our hotel.
24
There are some pages that need revising.
25
Sure, how may I address you?
26
Oh, I'm Mary Jane from Central Hotel Chains.
27
Nice to meet you.
28
I've got samples of the previous version.
29
I assume it is your company's advertising brochure?
30
Yes.
31
What exactly is the problem?
32
Well, it was printed the year before, so some of the information is already out of date.
33
There are also a couple of problems with the layout.
34
Firstly, the letters of the address on the front page are far too small.
35
It's hard to see when glancing at the cover.
36
How big do you need it to be?
37
Increase the letters by three font sizes.
38
Just a minute.
39
Let me take notes of your requirements.
40
Okay, what else needs changing?
41
The information regarding the pool should be deleted because it is currently under renovation and is not available.
42
So, all of the relevant descriptions on page 2 should be removed?
43
What do we replace it with?
44
We can't just leave the whole page blank.
45
Just fill it in with the introduction of our newly opened gym.
46
I've included all the relevant information here in this flash drive.
47
Let me check.
48
Erm, I see.
49
No problem then.
50
What is also bothering us is that the description under the top photos on page 4 is incorrect.
51
The word lounge needs to be replaced with reception.
52
Fully noted.
53
Is that all?
54
No, there is more.
55
Turn to page 5.
56
We feel that showing merely the picture of our exterior and interior decoration does not fully represent the appeal of our hotel.
57
On second thought, we've decided to use a picture with the view of the hotel.
58
Do you have the original copy of the picture?
59
Yes, it is also enclosed in the flash drive.
60
Okay.
61
We'll re -edit the whole layout of the photos.
62
Great!
63
Thank you.
64
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.
65
Thank you.
66
Thank you.
67
you Thank you.
68
Thank you.
69
Thank you.
70
Thank you.
71
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
72
Let's turn to the next page.
73
Yes, what's wrong with that?
74
It seems perfectly fine to me.
75
At first sight it seems fine, but according to the feedback of the customers, the prices do not stand out.
76
So, we want to change the print from black to red to make it pop out.
77
OK, I've made notes of all of your requests.
78
Is there anything else?
79
I appreciate it.
80
Just one final request.
81
Could you translate the whole brochure into Spanish?
82
We have customers worldwide, you know, especially those from Latin countries.
83
No problem.
84
What about other languages, like Japanese, Chinese or German?
85
These are our most popular target languages.
86
I have to ask the manager about the Chinese version.
87
There's been a surging number of Chinese clients during recent years.
88
However, We don't need German or Japanese translations, as we currently don't have many customers from those two countries.
89
Sure.
90
Just keep me updated.
91
So, roughly, when can we get the revised print?
92
We need it before the end of July.
93
It's late June now.
94
Roughly, it'll take three weeks to re -edit.
95
so we'll definitely be ready before the deadline.
96
Great!
97
To where shall we send the samples?
98
The address is number 9 Green Drive Clifton NY 21300.
99
How do you spell Clifton?
100
C -L -I -F -F -T -O -N.
101
Clifton.
102
And the telephone number?
103
It's 903036602.
104
Also, if you have any further questions, you can reach me through this number.
105
Okay.
106
Thank you.
107
That is the end of section one.
108
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
109
Thank you.
110
Thank you.
111
Thank you.
112
Thank you.
113
Thank you.
114
Thank you.
115
Thank you.
116
Thank you.
117
Thank you.
118
Thank you.
119
Thank you.
120
Thank you.
121
Thank you.
122
Thank you.
123
Now turn to section 2.

この動画でスピーキングを練習する理由は？

一般的な発音の罠

この動画の中で特に注意が必要な単語や発音のポイントいくつかあります。

  • brochure - この単語は時に正しく発音されないことがあり、特に「ブロシュア」という響きになります。正確な発音を練習しましょう。
  • renovation - 「リノベーション」というようにアクセントが難しい単語です。特に最後の部分に意識を向けると良いでしょう。

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。
