You will hear a telephone conversation between a woman who is moving to London and an employee of a relocation service.

First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 7.

Thank you.

London Relocation Services, Daniel speaking.

How may I help you?

Good morning.

My family and I are moving to London later this year and I wonder if you can help.

Sure.

First of all, I'll need to get some personal details.

May I take your full name, please?

It's Anna Woods.

Thanks.

Where are you moving from?

Northern Ireland, just outside Belfast, actually.

Right.

And what's your current address?

It's 118 Fordyce Park.

I'll spell that for you.

It's F -O -R -D -Y -C -E.

And that's in Ballysillon.

And what's the postcode?

It's BT149BJ.

Alright, and could I take a contact phone number?

I'll give you my mobile number as you can get me on that any time.

It's 07840051963.

Great, got that.

Now we always like to get a bit more information about the families that we're moving.

It helps with the search.

Are you moving for work?

Yes, my husband's just got a new job in London.

And what about you?

Do you work?

Well, I've been working as a teaching assistant recently, but I'm actually a qualified nurse and I'd like to get back into that if possible.

Right.

And do you have any children?

Yes, a son.

So we need to find a school for him.

Is it a secondary school you'll be looking for?

No, he's still in primary school.

He's not quite at the secondary level yet.

Fine.

So, let's go on to talk about your requirements for the property.

Do you have a preferred location?

Is your husband's job in the centre?

No, it's in East London, but we'd rather live somewhere quieter.

Sure.

There are some lovely areas in the south.

OK, that sounds great.

Now, my husband doesn't want to spend too long commuting to work every day.

So, I imagine that ideally he'd like to be not too far from a station then?

Yes.

He drives now, but I guess that's not going to be possible, and he's not keen on buses.

What about you or your son?

Do you have any preferences?

Does your son do any sport, for example?

He's quite active, so I'm sure he'd love a park nearby to run around in.

He doesn't do swimming or anything like that.

Great.

Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 8 to 10.

Now listen and answer questions 8 to 10.

So, what sort of property do you have in mind?

We have friends who live in an amazing flat over there.

But as we've always lived in a house, I think we'll stick with that.

We'd find it hard to adapt to a flat.

OK.

And size -wise, how many bedrooms would you like?

Well, there's just myself, my husband and our son.

So you definitely need a two -bedroom property.

But how about having a guest room?

I might be able to find a three -bedroom property for you.

Yes, that would be ideal.

We're sure to have family visiting often.

All right.

I've made a note of that.

Now, are there any other requirements for your new property?

Well, it's not essential, but it'd be handy to have an office for when my husband works from home.

It doesn't need to be a big one.

I guess it all comes down to budget.

Yes.

Okay, Anna.

Well, I've certainly got enough to be getting on with, and I will...

That is the end of part one.

Thank you.

A manager talking to company employees about moving to a new office building.

First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 16 on page 3.

Thank you.

Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 16.

Thank you for coming to today's meeting, everyone.

I'd like to give you some information about moving to our new office building so that you know what the plans are.

So, first, let me explain why we're moving.

Even though we've taken on quite a few new employees over the last year, we still have plenty of space here,

but the problem is where we are.

But we've now found the perfect place in the city centre.

Originally, we chose this building in the suburbs because the rent was much cheaper, but our clients aren't always keen on coming out here.

I visited the new office last week, and I'm pretty sure that you'll find the greatest advantage is the huge windows.

I'm not sure we'll need desk lamps at all.

Of course, we'll have everything checked out to make sure we can control the temperature of each office,

and we may have to put some room dividers in some offices so that you're not disturbed by your colleagues' conversations.

We've just set a date for the move.

100

The finance department wanted us to wait until after the end of the tax year, April, but we've decided to move earlier.

101

As soon as the sales conference is over in January, we'll move.

102

That'll give us plenty of time to organise everything before you start taking your annual holidays.

103

We've already put quite a bit of information about the move on the company website, like restaurants and cafes around the new office,

104

but we're still checking bus routes and things like that, so transport information will be up by next Monday.

105

Another thing still to get confirmed is which car park we can use and how many people can use it.

106

OK, let's move on to some practical things you have to do now.

107

Don't worry yet about taking home your photos and things like that.

108

That can be sorted out much nearer the time, along with getting rid of any unwanted paperwork.

109

We need to find out how many new desks and chairs to order,

110

so could you make a list of any of the ones you use that are scratched or broken?

111

Just one thing, all documents containing non -confidential information can go into the general packing boxes,

112

but when it comes to documents containing confidential information, you'll need to put these in special bags.

113

You'll be given grey plastic ones for this.

114

So one thing to do now is go through your filing cabinets and identify which folders are confidential.

115

Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 17 to 20 on page 4.

116

Now listen and answer questions 17 to 20.

117

Now, to help you prepare for the move, I'd like to talk about lifting heavy things.

118

You shouldn't really have to do this because a removal company will be used,

119

but you might want to move a box out of your way or something.

120

It's surprising how often people don't remember to use the handles on the boxes, although they all have them.

121

You've all had the leaflet explaining that you should keep your back straight and your head up when lifting.

122

And it also tells you to stand with your feet firmly on the ground and a little bit apart, so I think that's clear.

123

But the leaflet emphasises the importance of not twisting to the left or right once you've picked something up,

124

and if you're like me, that's easy to forget.

125

I'd also like to talk about papers.

126

If they've been stored for a long time, they can get mould on them, a sort of fungus, and as soon as you start moving them,

127

the fungus gets disturbed.

128

As you know, you can't open the windows in this building, but I suggest you use the gloves that we'll provide.

129

We'll also get some face masks, but we've been advised that these shouldn't be necessary.

130

What you should do is drink one or two litres of water a day.

131

That's essential.

132

Often the best time to do this sort of work is after your afternoon break

133

so that you can leave the building soon afterwards.

134

Now are there any questions?

135

That is the end of section 2.

136

You now have half a minute to check your answers.

137

Now turn to Section 3 on page 5.

138

Section 3 You will hear two students named Mona and Ted talking about a presentation on design development.

139

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

140

Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 26.

141

Ted, you've looked at my presentation, haven't you?

142

What do you think of it?

143

Hey, Mona.

144

Yes, I have.

145

Before giving you some advice, I have a question.

146

Why didn't you write about the development of design and its influence, or connection with social advancement, or even art movement?

147

In my opinion, this direction would have more significance.

148

Actually, I just want to focus on the history of design.

149

I'm particularly interested in its history from the 1800s.

150

That's why I wrote about it.

151

I see.

152

It could save some effort.

153

Not really.

154

I've covered different areas of design, such as building, clothing, and products.

155

It's a lot of work.

156

Right.

157

Is it because you want to give a comprehensive talk?

158

To be honest, I was worried about my teacher's reaction.

159

If I only talk about one area, she might think I've been lazy.

160

You know what?

161

Even though it's okay to talk about different aspects, I think the topic is too broad.

162

It would be hard for the listeners to focus on any specific area.

163

Um, you are right.

164

I only have about 45 minutes for the talk.

165

Maybe I should narrow the range.

166

That would be much better.

167

And you can use computer technology to assist you in your presentation.

168

like using the CAD or other computer software?

169

I'm not sure.

170

Although computer technology can improve the visual effects of my presentation, I'd rather use the traditional way since I'm talking about the history of design.

171

I guess traditional media is more affected by computers rather than designing industry.

172

That makes sense.

173

You could do it your own way.

174

As for the content, you mentioned purism, and you said it can save people's effort.

175

I don't really agree with that.

176

I think it's not really easy to achieve.

177

On the other hand, I do think it's important to apply this concept in architecture.

178

I mean, the building should look simple and elegant.

179

That's a good point.

180

Ted, what do you think I should do to further improve my talk?

181

Well, I think you have read enough books about it.

182

So, it's not the theories that you lack.

183

Why don't you visit the Design Museum in the north of the city?

184

One of my friends went there last month, and he said it was worth it.

185

I'm sure it can give you some inspiration.

186

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

187

Now listen and answer questions 27 to 30.

188

How do you usually prepare for a presentation?

189

You have done it many times, right?

190

You can say that.

191

When I prepare for a presentation, I would first try to come up with an introduction telling the audience what my topic is.

192

It's very important to grasp people's attention and let them know what you want to talk about.

193

Okay, I think so.

194

A good beginning can mean everything.

195

Exactly.

196

Maybe you could use a story to start.

197

Step 2.

198

I would research deeper into the topic and give the audience something new.

199

Yeah, that's what I've been working on.

200

I always try to look for more related information online.

201

I want them to learn something from my presentation.

202

Since you work so hard, they will like it.

203

I noticed that you use a lot of pictures in your slides.

204

What I would do is put a statement under each picture, so the audience would know what exactly the pictures are about.

205

I just thought it would be more impressive to use only pictures.

206

All right, I will add that.

207

In the next step, you should try illustrating slide by slide.

208

Each slide should only contain one thought or idea, so all of these thoughts will link together in your illustration.

209

This step would need a lot of practice.

210

Exactly.

211

A lot of practice is needed before you stand in front of the real audience.

212

There's one final step you should not forget.

213

I suggest you prepare some text handouts with important details.

214

What are they for?

215

The audience can reflect on what you talk about in and after your presentation.

216

I've never thought about that.

217

Thank you so much.

218

Ted, you're a great help.

219

No problem, Mona.

220

That is the end of Section 3.

221

You now have half a minute to check your answers. So Section

222

4. You will hear a talk on the research of the graphical symbol.

223

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

224

Thank you.

225

Good morning everyone!

226

Today I'm going to talk about the graphical symbol.

227

A graphic symbol is a written symbol that is used to represent speech, such as those used in the Greek alphabet.

228

The term graphic symbol encompasses anything from the logographs used in Egyptian hieroglyphic writing to ancient Chinese pictograms.

229

Early symbols were based on pictographs and ideograms before they were developed into logographic writing systems.

230

These systems are still in use in some non -literate cultures in Africa, the Americas, and Oceania.

231

Indeed, elements of pictography are still found in modern Chinese characters,

232

and it is often an interesting exercise to trace the origins of some Chinese characters.

233

Pictographs remain in common commercial use today as signs, instructions, or statistical diagrams.

234

Road signs and public toilet signs and even flat pack assembly instructions utilizing pictures are considered pictographic.

235

Ancient graphic writing systems provide researchers with a wealth of knowledge about past civilizations. In 1799,

236

one of the most important historical discoveries was made by accident

237

when members of Napoleon's expedition to Egypt found a stone in Rosetta that exhibited three different scripts.

238

The stone, now known as the Rosetta Stone,

239

was studied in significant depth by scholars and was first deciphered by Frenchman Jean -Francois Champollion in 1822.

240

He was able to correctly determine the phonetic values of the symbols, and later research has confirmed his findings.

241

In many of these symbols, lines are used to portray a multitude of meanings,

242

and knowledge and understanding of these lines holds the key to comprehension of graphic writing systems.

243

A key moment in the history of communication was the invention of the camera obscura, or camera.

244

Although the concept can be traced back to the 5th century BC Chinese philosopher Moa Ti,

245

the first photographic image was ultimately created in 1826 by Joseph Nissephor Nissef.

246

Photography, as it was later known, enables researchers to piece together and better understand history.

247

Today, photography forms a huge part of everyday life, and most publications contain a vast number of photographs.

248

Photography is used in advertising and is now becoming a way to increase awareness of existing world issues.

249

For example, animal welfare charities are increasingly using photography to advertise animals that are at high risk of endangerment.

250

Charity workers are sometimes flown to far -flung locations to document

251

the suffering endured by high -risk animals in an attempt to raise human awareness of their consumption activities

252

and how they impact others.

253

One recent high -profile campaign was undertaken by attaching a camera

254

to the foot of a bird in order to obtain photographs of the animals in their natural habitats

255

and understand how often they come into contact with human waste.

256

A soon -to -be -released documentary about the suffering of animals on Midway Island shows the full extent to

257

which human consumption is harming animals thousands of miles away from us.

258

As photography continues to progress, with the use of drones now becoming somewhat commonplace,

259

we should expect more and more objects to be included in the future, expanding the horizon of photography ever further.

260

Indeed, the downward pressure on traditional media prices means

261

that media companies are being forced to get creative on how to make a profit.

262

Many have found that the answer to this lies in advertising

263

and companies are now willing to devote a large portion of their budgets to advertising in newspapers

264

By the same token, marketing has become an essential part of a company's business model often meaning the success

265

or failure of a company

266

As a result, much time and money has been pumped into the development of effective branding with attractive packaging playing a large role in this.

267

However, many governments are now seen to be cracking down on marketing and packaging in an attempt to protect consumers from being misled.

268

In particular, tobacco companies are now subject to ever -increasing regulation.

269

For example, In the United Kingdom, legislation is soon to pass preventing any form of branding

270

or differentiation on cigarette packaging in efforts to curb the harmful effects of smoking.

271

Finally, one must not forget the fundamental role that graphic writing systems have had to play in mathematics.

272

Graphs, icons and diagrams often form the very basis of these branches of academia.

273

Indeed, one needs to look no further than chemistry's periodic table to see a perfect example of graphic writing systems in use today.

274

Thank you.

275

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。
