Now turn to Section 3 on page 6.
2
Section 3.
3
Following instructions from their tutor, you will hear two economic students called James and Anna
4
discussing a recent survey about the cost of buying a house in New Zealand.
5
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 25 on page 6.
6
Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 25.
7
OK.
8
For this week's assignment, you're going to assess the value survey on house prices.
9
What were the survey's findings?
10
Was it a reliable survey? survey.
11
Work in pairs, discuss what you've read and generate some ideas for the assignment.
12
Alright.
13
Shall we work together, Anna?
14
Sure, James.
15
So, um, first, how did the values survey actually measure the cost of houses?
16
Because there are lots of ways of calculating it.
17
Well, it looked at all houses, didn't it?
18
New and old.
19
So it started with average incomes across the whole workforce and then worked out house prices in relation to that.
20
I mean, to what people were earning.
21
So it's about affordability, what people pay in real terms.
22
There's no information about the size of a house a typical family can buy.
23
No, that's a limitation.
24
OK, then in the assignment we should give some background.
25
I mean, what's different about the value survey?
26
Yeah, there's lots of these surveys every year.
27
Value is actually one of the newer ones, but it stands out because it gives figures for a range of the largest urban centres which none of the others do.
28
OK, good point.
29
Then one finding was that New Zealand houses are relatively expensive.
30
Why is that?
31
Because most of them are built of wood, and that's quite cheap.
32
Yeah, it is.
33
But the problem is, there are too many regulations and restrictions about where you can build.
34
So if more building sites were created for housing, the costs would come down.
35
That's it, isn't it?
36
Because there are plenty of contractors ready to do the work.
37
Exactly.
38
So, um, what else?
39
Well, what about transport?
40
I mean, it's all very well to talk about new housing, but how are people going to get there?
41
Is the survey proposing new roads, new rail networks?
42
It should be a coordinated approach.
43
Yeah, but the survey didn't mention it.
44
It's a missed opportunity because a commitment to funding public transport from the outset would improve air quality in our cities.
45
True.
46
OK then, the next survey, what can we expect?
47
It'll look at all the same places, right?
48
Exactly the same.
49
But the next one will give an idea of the way prices are moving.
50
The government may have to think about how house prices are affecting society.
51
Now listen and answer questions 26 to 30.
52
Then in the assignment, we need to evaluate how reliable the survey was.
53
So we should look at some of the criticism made by commentators.
54
OK.
55
So there's the economist Andrew Coleman.
56
He actually questioned whether the survey was money well spent, because it only looked at a single year in isolation.
57
A year when it was difficult to borrow money to buy a house, pushing up costs.
58
So he thought the survey should consider a longer timeframe.
59
Did you get that article by Professor Massey?
60
Because he's the leading authority on this topic.
61
Yeah, interesting.
62
He realised the method used to calculate how much money people had didn't take savings into account.
63
So actually, people looking for a house were richer than the survey shows, making houses cheaper in real terms.
64
All right.
65
Then Richard Bernard, his criticism was original.
66
He found out they were using quite outdated software to process all the information they gathered, which was crazy because they actually had the money available for an upgrade.
67
So even though it was a highly regarded team of people, the way the statistics were interpreted was open to question.
68
OK.
69
Then Professor Lowndes, he thought the report was just badly written.
70
That's right.
71
After all the work that went into gathering valid information, The finished report was just too long and weakly structured.
72
And there was too much unnecessary detail.
73
And the last one, Maria Darling.
74
She made a point about the properties that were evaluated.
75
There weren't enough of them, you mean?
76
No, it wasn't that.
77
But they were never identified for privacy reasons.
78
But she thought the actual properties used should have been revealed, you know.
79
The process should have been transparent if the people are going to have full confidence in the survey.
80
Right.
81
So a lot of criticism them.
82
Yeah, but this sort of research is often controversial.

이 비디오로 배울 수 있는 것

이 대화를 통해 영어 회화 연습에 필수적인 두 가지 실용적인 기술을 배울 수 있습니다. 첫째, 논의 중인 주제(여기서는 주택 가격 조사)에 대해 자연스럽게 의견을 교환하는 방법입니다. 제임스와 안나는 "What were the survey's findings?"와 같이 직접적인 질문을 사용하고, "I mean, to what people were earning"처럼 설명을 덧붙여 서로의 의견을 명확히 전달합니다. 둘째, 한 주제를 깊이 있게 논의하기 위해 관련 주제(예: 교통, 규제)를 연결하는 기술입니다. 이는 실제 회화에서 주제가 자연스럽게 전개되는 방식을 배우는 좋은 기회입니다.

들어야 할 소리: 연결된 발음

영어의 자연스러운 발음을 배우기 위해 연결된 발음(connected speech)을 주의 깊게 들으세요. 대화에서 "it looked at all houses"는 "it look tat all houses"처럼 "looked at"가 "look tat"으로 연결됩니다. 또, "what's different about"는 "what's differen tabout"으로 발음되어 "about"의 "a"가 약화됩니다. 이러한 연결과 약화 현상은 유튜브 영어 공부에서 자주 접할 수 있는데, 이를 잘 듣고 따라하면 영어의 리듬을 더 잘 이해할 수 있습니다.

원어민처럼 말하기: 리듬과 강세

원어민처럼 말하는 비결은 shadow speech(쉐도잉)를 통해 리듬과 강세를 연습하는 것입니다. 이 대화에서 제임스와 안나는 중요한 정보를 강조하기 위해 단어에 강세를 줍니다. 예를 들어, "it stands out because it gives figures for a range of the largest urban centres"에서 "stands out", "gives figures", "largest urban centres"에 강세가 가해집니다. 영어 쉐도잉를 할 때는 이 강세를 따라가고, 문장의 리듬(빠르게 말하는 부분과 느리게 말하는 부분)을 재현하세요. 또한, "I mean", "Exactly"와 같은 필러 단어를 사용하여 회화를 더 자연스럽게 만들 수 있습니다. 매일 5분씩 shadow speak 연습을 하면, 점점 원어민 같은 발음과 리듬을 익힐 수 있습니다.

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.
