1
Hi, you must be Sophie. I'm Raj, from the agency.
2
Yes, that's me. Sorry, the Tube was running late again.
3
No worries at all. Shall we go in before it rains harder?
4
Please. I've been looking forward to seeing this one.
5
So, this is the living room. It's just been repainted.
6
Oh, it's bigger than it looked in the photos.
7
Yes, the bay window makes a huge difference. Lots of light.
8
Is the furniture included, or would I need my own?
9
It comes fully furnished, so you can just move in.
10
The kitchen's a bit small, isn't it?
11
It is, but everything's new. The washing machine was fitted last month.
12
That's good. Does the boiler work properly? My last flat was freezing.
13
It's been serviced this year. You shouldn't have any problems.
14
How noisy does it get at night? It's quite a busy road.
15
Honestly, it quietens down after about ten.
16
And the windows are double glazed, which helps a lot.
17
If I took it, when could I move in?
18
The current tenant leaves on the thirtieth. So, the first of next month.
19
And the rent is twelve hundred a month, right?
20
That's right, with bills not included.
21
Hmm. Would the landlord accept eleven hundred?
22
I can ask, but I wouldn't count on it. Flats go quickly round here.
23
Fair enough. What about the deposit?
24
Five weeks' rent, held in a protected scheme.
25
Okay, I'd like to apply, please. I don't want to lose it.
26
Brilliant. I'll send you the forms this afternoon.
27
If I send them back tonight, how long does it take?
28
Usually two or three days, once we've checked your references.
29
Perfect. Thanks so much for showing me round, Raj.
30
My pleasure, Sophie. Speak soon.

このレッスンについて

「Viewing a Flat to Rent in London」を使って、シャドーイングで英語を練習しましょう。

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。
