Part 1.

You will hear a man who runs a volunteer agency interviewing a woman called Grace who is applying to do volunteer work.

First you have some time to look at questions 1 to 5.

Now listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.

Hello, Grace.

I'm William.

Thanks for coming in for this interview it's very important for us to meet our volunteers in person.

I understand.

It's no problem at all.

OK.

Let's get started.

What's the best phone number to contact you on?

My mobile phone's probably best.

The number's 021 636 7189.

But I can't always answer it during the day.

I'll give you my email address as well.

I check it frequently.

OK.

I'll make a note that email's a good way to contact you.

What's the address?

It's graceb .travel .co .nz.

I chose it when I was younger, and I just haven't changed it since.

It's easy to remember.

Now, do you have any particular qualifications, Grace?

I'm a housewife now, but I used to be in teaching.

I trained for that and got my diploma, although I haven't done it for years.

Before having children, I worked as a bank teller.

All right.

I need to find out when you'll be available during the week.

You said you have children.

Are they at school?

Yes, both of them are.

So I can't start work before 8 .15 in the morning or work past 3 o 'clock in the afternoon.

So you'd be looking for about four or five hours a day, say 9 .15am to 2pm?

That gives you time to get to and from school to work.

That's perfect.

It's important for me to be there for my children. Of course.

And are you looking to work Monday to Friday?

Yes.

If it gets to be too much, I can rethink it later.

Now, Grace, you obviously have a lot of work experience, but have you done any volunteer work before?

Um, during the Rugby World Cup, there were many visitors who didn't know their way around or what they should see and do in Auckland City,

so I worked as a guide to help introduce the city to tourists.

I really enjoyed it.

OK, good.

Have you done anything else?

Perhaps when you were at school or university?

Did you do any volunteer work there?

When I was at university, the manager of a netball team asked me to be the coach, and I did that.

Great.

It sounds like you like your sports.

I used to, but not so much nowadays.

Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.

Now listen and answer questions six to ten.

If not sports, do you have any other interests?

Oh, yes.

I love to get out in my garden, and I grow most of my own vegetables.

I love flowers and flower arranging.

But I don't suppose there's much volunteer work associated with those kinds of things.

You'd be surprised.

Any other hobbies?

Like most people, I guess, I like music.

Actually, I can play the guitar, but I haven't done much for a while so I'm a bit rusty.

One day I'd like to have a go at the flute.

OK, that gives me a good idea of the type of work you might be interested in.

Ideally, it'd be something that combines your experience and your hobbies.

If you're interested in something outdoors, I have a position helping out on a farm.

That's just for a month.

It's not too physically demanding, though it does require you to be on your feet all day.

And it'd be nice as long as the weather is fine, but I imagine it could be uncomfortable in the rain or the heat.

In the past, we've had many positions working in community centres.

They've been working with the disabled or teens.

The position we have available now is with elderly men and women.

They have activities like flower arranging, music lessons, sing -alongs, things like that.

Both of those sound great.

I'm really open to anything.

That's nice to know.

Just a couple more questions.

Why do you want to do volunteer work?

Well, now that both my children are in school, I'd like to make some friends as I've got the time on my hands.

Also, I like the idea of helping others.

And last question, how did you find our agency?

We aren't in the phone book.

Did a friend tell you about us?

No, I was on my way to school the other day and I saw your advertisement at the supermarket.

It's good to know someone sees those ads.

Thank you again for coming.

That is the end of Part 1.

You now have one minute to check your answers to Part 1.

Part 2 You will hear the owner of a strawberry farm talking to a group of new employees.

First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 14.

Thank you.

Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 14.

Hello, my name's

Peter Blakewell and I'm the owner of the Strawberry Farm.

All of you are starting work here next week,

so I thought it would be helpful if I explained a bit about the farm and what you'll be doing.

Well, the farm operates all year round,

but summer is when we open to the public and people come here to pick their own strawberries as a family activity.

100

It's also our busiest period, which is why we need you for the next few months.

101

Well, first up, what do you need to bring for a long day?

102

You'll be working outside a lot, so fill up your water bottles at home and have them with you at all times.

103

You'll come in for lunch around one o 'clock.

104

We'll be putting sandwiches out for you.

105

And there's also short morning and afternoon breaks.

106

Gloves should be worn at all times.

107

You'll find them in the packing shed.

108

Just make sure they get returned, please.

109

Now, if for some reason you can't come into work, there's a procedure to follow.

110

There's no point phoning the office.

111

By the time someone picks up your message, it'll be too late to find a replacement.

112

You need to get hold of the duty manager.

113

Phone and speak to him directly, and he'll let your team leader know you're going to be off.

114

But before I forget, last year we had a problem with customers getting to the checkouts

115

and not realising how much they have to pay per kilo for the strawberries.

116

But we've got signs with price lists all round the farm this year, so that's been dealt with.

117

One annoying thing is people taking baskets out of the shop and leaving them in the car park, or worse, taking them home.

118

They're expensive to replace, so please keep an eye on them.

119

If you're in the fields, no doubt you'll see people popping a couple of strawberries into their mouths,

120

but we don't need to worry about this too much.

121

I should mention the benefits of working here.

122

For a start, you get to take home a good -sized carton of strawberries at no charge.

123

Your family members can also get 15 % off the fruit they pick.

124

Discounts don't apply to the gift shop, I'm afraid.

125

Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 15 to 20.

126

Thank you.

127

all right let's look at the map you all have to give you an idea of the farm's layout

128

we'll start with the staff room see the main building the

129

entrance is at the bottom of your map well above the

130

main building on the map is a row of three smaller buildings the staff room is the middle one

131

if you need to go to administration

132

that's easy to find in the main building you've got the three checkout desks in the bottom right hand corner

133

and the cafe in the top corner

134

and the other large inside area is the shop

135

so administration is the other room

136

there it's in the top left hand corner some of you are working in the packing shed

137

you see where the main building is

138

and then at the top of the map

139

there are the round water tanks four of them the packing

140

shed is the bigger of the two buildings directly below the tanks on your map.

141

Not easy work, but at least you'll be in the shade.

142

If you're driving to work, you'll need to know where the staff car park is.

143

So that's to the left of the main building, the area nearest the bottom of the map.

144

Park there and then either use the front entrance or that little door on the left of the main building.

145

Right, let's talk about where the customers can and can't pick their own strawberries.

146

They're not allowed to enter the commercial growing areas, and you can see area one already marked on your map.

147

That means there are two sections where customers are allowed to pick their own fruit.

148

The section with strawberries that are ready to pick now,

149

the ripe strawberries, that's the L -shaped section right at the top of the map on the left.

150

The unripe strawberries will be ready in about three weeks so

151

that section it's above commercial growing area one

152

and you can see it from the cafe okay

153

so does anyone have any questions

154

that is the end of part two you now have 30 seconds to check your answers to part two

155

Part 3 You will hear an engineering student called Kathy discussing a piece of work with her tutor.

156

First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 26.

157

Thank you.

158

Hello, Cathy.

159

How's your dissertation on water pumps going?

160

Not too bad, thanks.

161

I'm getting on well with the literature review now, and my lab work's fine so far.

162

Oh, that's good.

163

Remember, you should aim to have your results section completed by the end of next month,

164

so there's plenty of time to finalise the whole thing by the summer deadline.

165

Anyway, looks like you're on track.

166

I've been through your first chapter now and I was quite impressed.

167

Oh, that's a relief.

168

Well, sometimes your sentences are a little long and over complex, but the overall structure of the piece is very clear.

169

I'd recommend you get a critical friend to go through it with you.

170

Then, once you've built in citations of other work in the field, I think it'll be pretty good.

171

Oh, thanks.

172

I was pleased I decided to focus on water pumps.

173

You seem to be testing an appropriate range of pump design.

174

Lots of students make the mistake of either restricting their range too much or, conversely, not narrowing it down enough.

175

You've managed to avoid those twin traps.

176

However, I think you'd get more convincing results if you took some additional measurements.

177

I've noted exactly what I mean on your work.

178

Yes, I thought that might be necessary, and I know I need to get down to some more library work too.

179

Well, I don't think that's essential at the moment.

180

Oh, right.

181

So what do you suggest I do next? repeat my last experiment using different variables?

182

Well, you could have a word with James Higgins tomorrow.

183

He's coming here to give a lecture on hydraulics to the faculty

184

and it would be a great chance to have a chat with him,

185

especially as your experimental work has drawn so heavily from his last article in the British Engineering Journal.

186

Oh, fantastic!

187

And you never know how successful a chat with him might turn out to be.

188

I got my first research posed when I was a final year student

189

and asked a visiting professor to explain what he meant in some article he'd written.

190

So I urge all my students to take any such opportunity that arises.

191

But times have changed.

192

People like that are too busy to talk to mere students these days.

193

I don't know about that.

194

Anyway, is there anything else I can help with?

195

Any practical information about layout, perhaps?

196

Well, I suppose I'm a bit unsure about how the bibliography should be presented.

197

Mind you, I can just check what's normally done in journal articles, so that's not something to bother you with.

198

I'd welcome some guidance, though, about what I should or shouldn't include in the appendices.

199

I know some things, some of my data tables or details of specs perhaps,

200

are not really needed in the main body of the text and I'm likely to be pushed for words there.

201

OK, I can certainly help you with that.

202

But it will take a while, so can we deal with that next week?

203

I've got that solar panel seminar to go into in a few minutes.

204

There's plenty of work you can be carrying on with in the meantime.

205

Sure, that's no problem.

206

I think I'll go and investigate the latest version of the CAD software to see

207

if it might help with my pump design experiments at all.

208

Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions 27 to 30.

209

Now listen and answer questions 27 to 30.

210

Before you go, though, I'd like quickly to run through what you should be doing over the next few months, not just for your dissertation,

211

but also to help your chances of getting the research post you'd like.

212

Is that OK with you?

213

Yes, that would be really helpful.

214

Well, you certainly need to become a member of the Mechanical Engineers Society, and then you'll be able to go along to their meetings.

215

There you must make a point of making yourself known to various people, like Professor Jones.

216

He's the current president and is very approachable.

217

OK, so I could do some networking there.

218

Exactly.

219

Also, I think you should try to set up some visits to industry.

220

Go to a lot of different workplaces just to see how things are done.

221

It's actually a very good way of making sure you're familiar with the cutting edge of what's going on.

222

Textbooks, even academic articles, sometimes lag behind industry.

223

That sounds really interesting.

224

Also, I'd love the chance to do a bit of work abroad for a while.

225

Well, that's actually the next thing I was going to recommend.

226

I'm sure we could set up a month for you in either the States or Canada,

227

and that would be a great way to find out how things are done elsewhere.

228

That'd be good.

229

Thank you.

230

And the last thing I was going to suggest was

231

that you could go to the European Water Engineering Conference being held in Spain in May.

232

I could even present my dissertation there.

233

Yes.

234

Oh, thank you so much.

235

That's all really helpful.

236

Good. So now...

237

That is the end of part three.

238

You now have 30 seconds to check your answers to part three.

239

Part 4 You will hear part of a lecture about American salt marshes, which are areas of low land found near the sea.

240

First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.

241

Thank you.

242

Now listen carefully and answer questions 31 to 40.

243

Right.

244

This morning I want to give you a brief introduction to a different kind of habitat,

245

American salt marshes, and then we'll examine a particular inhabitant of the marsh, the horseshoe crab.

246

Okay, so what are the defining features of a salt marsh to

247

begin with? well salt marshes are found on the coast in various parts of the usa

248

they are really areas between land and water obviously these are very wet areas

249

and the salinity that's the amount of salt in the water

250

ranges from ocean strength to almost fresh in other words very low indeed

251

and the salt marshes are affected by daily changes in sea

252

levels the sea might wash in over them as frequently as twice a day

253

so the habitat is constantly changing the amount of salt in the water rises

254

and falls as does the depth

255

and warmth of the water we'll be having a detailed look at the horseshoe crab in a moment

256

but marshes provide plentiful food for other creatures that feed there too, such as worms and shrimps.

257

This food comes in the form of plants that thrive there.

258

Interestingly enough, 200 years ago, the flow of water in marshland in the United States was controlled so that rice could be grown there.

259

Little is grown there today, but 15 % of coastal marshes are enclosed artificially in order to attract wild birds to the area,

260

and we'll be examining those too.

261

But before looking at the wildlife, there are a few political issues to make you aware of.

262

There are always controversial issues

263

when humans decide to make changes to natural habitats during the

264

past 20 years many objections have been voiced to the building of artificial earth walls

265

or dikes to use the correct term on salt marshes to

266

control the natural flow of seawater since the walls restrict the movement of high volumes of water this means

267

that the natural habitat of local aquatic life is reduced and

268

because the water is shallower the temperature of the water may rise significantly during periods of low rainfall.

269

In addition, although the insects are very happy there, many people are unhappy with the dikes.

270

This isn't because they distract from the natural beauty of the landscape, but because their presence means it's more difficult for walkers,

271

who appreciate the marshes, to go where they want.

272

There is controversy over the different values placed on the resources of the marshes.

273

Some people would like to see them used more fully for hunting, while others would like to see business permits granted to allow for further development.

274

Interestingly, in the mid -20th century, marshes were not thought of as valuable at all,

275

and over half of the salt marshes in the USA were destroyed at that time.

276

In the main, this was due to filling the marshes to create more land for housing developments

277

and to control the mosquito population.

278

However, state laws now do reflect the importance and growing appreciation of marshes, not only as natural habitats,

279

but also because they provide a natural barrier against storm damage and therefore limit the amount of land lost to the sea.

280

Right.

281

We'll be debating some of those issues in the seminars, but let's now turn our attention to the horseshoe crab,

282

which is the focus of our study this morning.

283

Horseshoe crabs have changed very little in the last 350 million years.

284

I find them interesting in many ways because they are, in fact, distant relatives of the spider and not crabs at all.

285

They look quite dangerous.

286

In fact, they are absolutely harmless.

287

The horseshoe crab's main diet is one of shellfish, but they will eat worms too.

288

The crab places its food near its mouth, in the center of its underside, where its legs are attached, and grinds and crushes it there.

289

It has five pairs of legs.

290

The female lays between 200 and 300 eggs and comes ashore to do that.

291

This process takes place in spring, before the sand heats up in the summer months.

292

Right, what I'm going to do now is show you some photos.

293

That is the end of part four.

294

You now have 45 seconds to check your answers to part 4.

295

Thank you.

296

Thank you.

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。
