Part 4.
2
You will hear part of an environmental studies lecture on tree planting.
3
First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.
4
Thank you.
5
Now listen carefully and answer questions 31 to 40.
6
Tree planting now dominates political and popular agendas and is often presented as an easy answer to the climate crisis,
7
as well as a way for business corporations to offset their carbon emissions.
8
But unfortunately, tree planting isn't as straightforward as some people think.
9
When the wrong trees are planted in the wrong place,
10
it can do considerably more damage than good,
11
failing to help either people or the environment.
12
Reforestation projects are currently being undertaken on a huge scale in many countries,
13
and it's crucial that the right trees are selected.
14
A mix of species should always be planted,
15
typical of the local natural forest ecosystem and including rare and endangered species in order to create a rich ecosystem.
16
It's important to avoid non-native species that could become invasive.
17
Invasive species are a significant contributor to the current global biodiversity crisis
18
and are often in competition with native species and may threaten their long term survival.
19
Restoring biodiversity that will maximise carbon capture is key when reforesting an area,
20
but ideally any reforestation project should have several goals.
21
These could include selecting trees that can contribute to wildlife conservation,
22
improve the availability of food for the local community and maintain the stability of soil systems.
23
Meeting as many of these goals as possible,
24
whilst doing no harm to local communities,
25
native ecosystems and vulnerable species,
26
is the sign of a highly successful tree planting scheme.
27
To ensure the survival and resilience of a planted forest,
28
it's vital to use tree seeds with appropriate levels of genetic diversity,
29
the amount of genetic variation found within a species essential for their survival.
30
Using seeds with low genetic diversity generally lowers the resilience of restored forests,
31
which can make them vulnerable to disease and unable to adapt to climate change.
32
Choosing the right location for reforestation projects is as important as choosing the right trees.
33
Ultimately, the best area for planting trees would be informally forested areas that are in poor condition.
34
It's better to avoid non-forested landscapes,
35
such as natural grasslands, savannas or wetlands,
36
as these ecosystems already contribute greatly to capturing carbon.
37
It would also be advantageous to choose an area where trees could provide other benefits,
38
such as recreational spaces.
39
Reforesting areas which are currently exploited for agriculture should be avoided,
40
as this often leads to other areas being deforested.
41
Large scale reforestation projects require careful planning.
42
Making the right decisions about where to plant trees depends on having the right information.
43
Having detailed and up-to-date maps identifying high priority areas for intervention is essential.
44
Drone technology is a useful tool in helping to prioritise and monitor areas of degraded forest for restoration.
45
In Brazil, it's being used to identify and quantify how parts of the Amazon are being devastated by human activities,
46
such as rearing cattle and illegal logging.
47
A good example of where the right trees were picked to
48
achieve a restored forest is in in Lampang province in northern Thailand.
49
A previously forested site, which had been degraded through mining,
50
was reforested by a cement company,
51
together with Chiang Mai University.
52
After spreading 60 centimetres of topsoil,
53
they planted 14 different native tree species,
54
which included several species of fig.
55
Figs are a keystone species because of the critical role they play in maintaining wildlife populations.
56
They are central to tropical reforestation projects as they accelerate the speed of the recovery process by attracting animals
57
and birds which act as natural seed dispersers.
58
This helps to promote diversity through the healthy regrowth of a wide range of plant species.
59
Unlike the majority of fruit trees,
60
figs bear fruit all year round,
61
providing a reliable food source for many species.
62
At this site, for example,
63
after only three rainy seasons,
64
monkeys started visiting to eat the fig fruits,
65
naturally dispersing seeds through defecation.
66
Reforestation projects should always aim to make sure that local communities are consulted and involved in the decision-making process.
67
The restoration of mangrove forests in Madagascar is an example of a project
68
which has succeeded in creating real benefits for the community.
69
Destruction of the mangrove forests had a terrible impact on plant and animal life and also badly affected the fishing industry,
70
which was a major source of employment for local people living in coastal areas.
71
The reforestation project involved hiring local people to plant and care for the new mangrove trees.
72
Millions of mangrove trees have now been planted,
73
which has resulted in the return of a healthy aquatic ecosystem.
74
The mangroves also act as a defence against the increased threat of flooding caused by climate change.
75
What's more, the local economy is more stable and thousands more Madagascans are now able to send their children to school.
76
One other important point to consider...

왜 이 비디오로 말하기 연습을 해야 할까요?

이 비디오에서는 환경 연구와 관련된 강연의 일부분을 다루고 있습니다. 특히 나무 심기를 통한 기후 변화 해결 방안과 그 복잡성을 설명하고 있습니다. 이러한 주제를 바탕으로 말을 연습하는 것은 IELTS 스피킹과 같은 시험 준비에 매우 유리합니다. 환경 문제에 대한 자신의 견해를 표현하거나, 나무 심기의 중요성에 대해 논의할 수 있는 능력을 키우는 데 도움이 됩니다. 이렇게 실제 상황에서의 스피킹 연습은 학습자의 자신감을 높여주고, 토론 및 발표와 관련된 기술을 향상시킵니다. 비디오를 보며 듣고, 그 내용을 따라 말하는 것은 효과적인 shadow speak 기법 중 하나입니다.

문맥 속 문법 및 표현

  • ‘can do considerably more damage than good’: 이 표현은 부정적인 결과를 강조하는 데 사용됩니다. 말하기 연습 시 이와 같은 표현을 사용하여 주장을 더 강력하게 만들 수 있습니다.
  • ‘a mix of species should always be planted’: ‘should’는 의무나 권장 사항을 나타낼 때 매우 유용한 조동사입니다. 이 구조를 활용하여 자신의 의견을 제시할 수 있습니다.
  • ‘restoring biodiversity’: 이 표현은 특정 행동의 중요성을 강조합니다. 다른 주제에서도 비슷한 방식으로 의견을 강조할 수 있습니다.
  • ‘it's vital to use tree seeds with appropriate levels of genetic diversity’: 'it's vital'라는 표현은 결정적인 중요성을 나타내는 데 유용합니다. 이를 통해 자신의 주장을 더욱 강조할 수 있습니다.

공통 발음 함정

비디오에서 등장하는 몇 가지 단어는 발음하기 어려운 경우가 있습니다. 예를 들어, ‘biodiversity’와 ‘species’ 같은 단어는 비슷한 발음 때문에 헷갈리기 쉽습니다. 따라서 각 단어의 발음을 반복적으로 연습하는 것이 중요합니다. 또한, ‘invasive’라는 단어의 경우에도 발음 리듬에 신경 써야 합니다. shadowspeaks 기법을 활용하여 이러한 단어들을 자연스럽게 발음하며 연습하면, 실전 스피킹에 큰 도움이 됩니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
