Section 3.
2
You will hear two students, called Trudy and Stuart, who are both studying to be librarians,
3
discussing a paper that they are going to write together.
4
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 23.
5
Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 23.
6
OK, Stuart.
7
We need to start planning our paper on public libraries.
8
Have you thought of an angle yet?
9
Well, there's so much we could look into.
10
How libraries have changed over the centuries, for instance, or how different countries organise them.
11
What do you think, Trudy?
12
Maybe we should concentrate on this country and try and relate the changes in libraries to external developments,
13
like the fact that far more people can read than a century ago, and that the local population may speak lots of different languages.
14
We could include something about changes in the source of funding, too.
15
Yes, but remember we're only supposed to write a short paper, so it's probably best if we don't go into funding in any detail.
16
Right.
17
Well, shall we just brainstorm a few ideas to get started?
18
OK.
19
We obviously need to look at the impact of new technology, particularly the internet.
20
Now that lots of books have been digitalised, people can access them from their own computers at home.
21
And if everyone did that, libraries would be obsolete.
22
Yes.
23
But the digitalised books that are available online for free are mostly out of copyright, aren't they?
24
And copyright in this country lasts for 70 years after the author dies, so you won't find the latest bestseller or up -to -date information.
25
That's an important point.
26
Anyway, I find it hard to concentrate when I'm reading a long text on a screen.
27
I'd much rather read a physical book.
28
And it takes longer to read on a screen.
29
Oh, I prefer it.
30
I suppose it's just a personal preference.
31
I expect the libraries will go on evolving in the next few years.
32
Some have already become centres where community activities take place, like local clubs meeting there.
33
I think that'll become even more common.
34
I'd like to think so, and that they'll still be serving their traditional function, but I'm not so sure.
35
There are financial implications after all.
36
What I'm afraid will happen is that books and magazines will all disappear and there'll just be rows and rows of computers.
37
They won't look anything like the libraries we're used to.
38
Well, we'll see.
39
Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions 24 to 30.
40
Transcription by CastingWords to 30.
41
I've just had an idea.
42
Why don't we make an in -depth study of our local public library as background to our paper?
43
Yes, that'd be interesting, and raise all sorts of issues.
44
Let's make a list of possible things we could ask about, then work out some sort of structure.
45
For instance, we could interview some of the staff and find out whether the library has its own budget,
46
or if that's controlled by the local council.
47
And what their policies are.
48
I know they don't allow food, but I'd love to find out what types of noise they ban.
49
There always seems to be a lot of talking, but never music.
50
I don't know if that's a policy or it just happens.
51
I've often wondered.
52
Then there are things like how the library is affected by employment laws.
53
I suppose there are rules about working hours, facilities for staff and so on?
54
Right.
55
Right.
56
Then there are other issues relating to the design of the building and how customers use it,
57
like what measures does the library take to ensure their safety?
58
They'd need floor coverings that aren't slippery, and emergency exits, for instance.
59
Oh, and another thing, there's the question of the kind of insurance the library needs to have in case anyone gets injured.
60
Yes, that's something else to find out.
61
You know something I've often wondered?
62
What's that?
63
Well, you know they've got an archive of local newspapers going back years.
64
Well, next to it, they've got the diary of a well -known politician from the late 19th century.
65
I wonder why it's there.
66
Do you know what his connection was with this area?
67
No idea.
68
Let's add it to our list of things to find out.
69
Well, I've just thought, you know people might ask in the library about local organisations, like sports clubs.
70
Well, I wonder if they keep a database, or whether they just look online.
71
Right.
72
I quite fancy finding out what the differences are between a library that's open to the public
73
and one that's part of a museum, for example.
74
They must be very different.
75
Then something else I'd like to know is...
76
That is the end of Section 3.
77
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
78
Thank you. 4.

Grammatica in deze video

De structuren die de spreker het meest gebruikt, met de exacte woorden uit de video:

StructuurIn de video
Present perfect have/has + voltooid deelwoord — iets uit het verleden dat nu nog teltHave you thought · have changed · have been digitalised
Lijdende vorm be + voltooid deelwoord — het gaat om wat er gebeurt, niet om wie het doethave been digitalised · is affected

De spreker gebruikt 29 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals don't, I'd, I've. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.

  • De klanken “sh” en “zh”: organisation /ˈɔː.ɡə.naɪˌzeɪ.ʃən/, politician /ˌpɑ.ləˈtɪʃ.ən/, implication /ˌɪmpləˈkeɪʃən/, transcription /tɹænˈskɹɪpʃən/
  • Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: organisation /ˈɔː.ɡə.naɪˌzeɪ.ʃən/, politician /ˌpɑ.ləˈtɪʃ.ən/, librarian /laɪˈbɹɛə̯ɹi.ən/, implication /ˌɪmpləˈkeɪʃən/

Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:

  • Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: archive /ˈɑɹˌkaɪv/, evolve /ɪˈvɑlv/
  • /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: angle /ˈæŋ.ɡəl/, fancy /ˈfæn.si/, transcription /tɹænˈskɹɪpʃən/
  • /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: angle /ˈæŋ.ɡəl/, organisation /ˈɔː.ɡə.naɪˌzeɪ.ʃən/, exit /ˈɛɡzət/

Zo oefen je met deze video

  1. Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
  2. Spreek zin voor zin na op normale snelheid en herhaal elke zin tot je ritme gelijk is aan dat van de spreker.
  3. Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als copyright, relate, concentrate.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
