1
Part 1 You will hear a telephone conversation between a client who wants to rent short-term accommodation and a rental agent.
2
First you have some time to look at questions 1 to 5.
3
Now we shall begin.
4
You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time.
5
Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.
6
Good morning.
7
Ace Accommodation.
8
How can I help you?
9
Good morning.
10
I'd like to organise some short-stay accommodation on the Gold Coast, please.
11
Certainly.
12
Who am I speaking to?
13
Miss McKinley.
14
Sylvia McKinley.
15
Could you spell your family name for me, please?
16
It's M-A-C-K-I-N-L-A-Y.
17
Thank you.
18
And your first name is Sylvia?
19
Yes.
20
Is that with an I or a Y?
21
A Y, the old-fashioned way.
22
That's S-Y-L-V-I-A.
23
Thank you, Miss McKinley.
24
Now, just for our records,
25
can you tell me what country you live in? Of course.
26
It's England, actually.
27
I thought so.
28
Now, when are you coming?
29
Well, at the moment we're planning on arriving on July 26th.
30
Oh, the 25th.
31
That's the last day of the public holiday,
32
and it might be difficult to find something available on that date.
33
No, we're coming on the 26th of July.
34
Oh, well, that's fine then.
35
We'll have lots of good places vacant by then,
36
although you wouldn't be able to move in until late afternoon,
37
because our cleaning crew will need time to get everything ready for you.
38
That suits us.
39
Your flight won't get in until early evening anyway.
40
How many of you will there be?
41
Just my sister and myself.
42
And how long do you intend to stay?
43
Oh, only a couple of weeks.
44
We'd like to stay longer,
45
but we'll have to get back to work.
46
So you're not coming on business then?
47
No, it's just a holiday.
48
Why?
49
What difference does that make?
50
Oh, you'd be surprised.
51
Business people have different needs.
52
You know, wireless internet, even fax machines and photocopiers.
53
No, we won't need any of that stuff.
54
We'll be coming to relax and get away from all that kind of thing.
55
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
56
you have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.
57
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
58
Good.
59
Now, what exactly are you looking for?
60
A house, a duplex or an apartment?
61
What's a duplex?
62
Oh, that's what you might call a townhouse or a unit.
63
You know, two houses semi-detached on the same property.
64
Oh, I see.
65
I think an apartment will suit us just fine.
66
And how many bedrooms?
67
Two?
68
One or two, it depends on the size.
69
My sister and I don't mind sharing if it's a decent-sized bedroom with two beds.
70
Well, that makes it easier.
71
And car parking.
72
Will you require a lock-up garage?
73
They're a little harder to find with an apartment.
74
We'll have a higher car,
75
and as far as I know,
76
there are no regulations concerning car parking.
77
I think as long as it's not parked on the street and it's secure,
78
there shouldn't be any problems.
79
OK.
80
Now, I'm assuming you want something by the beach?
81
Yes, that's the idea.
82
We want to enjoy the surf, sand and sunshine.
83
OK.
84
But before we settle on an area and discuss your price range,
85
I'll need to know about other necessities.
86
What do you mean?
87
Well, for example, do you want to be close to a shopping mall or the casino or the fun parks,
88
or do you want to be in a complex with or near a swimming pool?
89
No, none of that really matters to us.
90
But we'd like to have reasonable access to the motorway so that we can drive up to Brisbane to visit friends there.
91
Well, there are quite a few lovely small towns to choose from.
92
There's Main Beach, which is north of Surfer's Paradise,
93
or Mermaid Waters, which is a bit further south,
94
or Palm Beach, which is quite a bit further south.
95
Mermaid Waters sounds delightful.
96
Is it close to the motorway?
97
Well, not really.
98
The M1 is actually closest to Palm Beach,
99
and prices are likely to be more reasonable there too.
100
That's settled then.
101
Palm Beach it is.
102
Now, if you'll just give me your email address,
103
I can send you information about the town and lots of photos.
104
Well, my email is smac13 at hotmail.com.
105
And one final thing.
106
How much are you looking to spend per week on accommodation?
107
Do you want something at the luxury end of the market?
108
You know, newly redecorated, great views, all the mod cons.
109
Not necessarily.
110
Could we get something clean,
111
comfortable and reasonable for $1,200 a week?
112
Could you stretch that to 1,500 a week?
113
I've got a property in mind that you'll absolutely love,
114
but you'd have to go to 1,500.
115
1,200 wouldn't cover it.
116
All right then, but that's our top limit.
117
Good.
118
I'll get on to this straight away,
119
and there should be something in your inbox shortly.
120
That is the end of part one.
121
You now have one minute to check your answers to part one.
122
Thank you.
123
Thank you.

このビデオで話す練習をする理由
このビデオは、短期宿泊施設を予約する際の電話会話を通じて、実際のIELTSリスニング試験の形式を学ぶ絶好の機会を提供します。特に、日常の会話や必要な情報を素早く理解するスキルが求められるため、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立ちます。また、YouTubeで英語学習を行うことで、リアルな会話の流れに耳を傾けながら、実用的な英語を身につけることができます。これにより、英語を話す自信がつき、会話の際の反応速度が向上します。
文法と表現の文脈
この会話から学べる重要な文法構造と表現を以下に分析します：
- 疑問文の使い方：「Could you spell your family name for me, please?」のように、丁寧に依頼するフレーズは、スピーキングで役立ちます。
- 条件文：「that might be difficult to find something available on that date」のような条件文は、もし状況が変わった場合の説明に有効です。
- 未来形の使い方：「We’re planning on arriving on July 26th」といった表現は、計画を述べる際によく用いられます。
これらの表現を使いながら、英語シャドーイングを行うことで、より自然な英語が身につきます。
よくある発音の落とし穴
このビデオ内で注意すべき発音のトラップとして、以下の単語やアクセントがあります：
- McKinley：この姓は「マッキンリー」と発音されますが、初めて聞く人には難しいかもしれません。特に母音の部分でつまずくことが多いです。
- accommodation：この単語の発音も注意が必要で、アクセントの位置をしっかりと留意しないと、伝わりにくいことがあります。
- holidayとbusiness：これらの単語は、文脈によってアクセントが変わることがあり、自然な流れで話せるように練習するのが重要です。
これらのポイントに注意しながら、英語スピーキング練習を行うことで、発音面でも自信を持つことができます。特に、shadowspeakの方法を取り入れ、効果的な練習を行いましょう。
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。
