Listening, Part 2.
3
Exercise 3.
4
For each question, choose the correct answer.
5
1. You will hear a young woman talking about taking part in a singing contest.
6
What did you think of the judge's scores?
7
Well, I thought I'd sung pretty well,
8
certainly nothing to be ashamed of.
9
But I must admit, they were lower than I'd expected.
10
I knew then that I had little chance of beating the others,
11
but at least I'd done my best.
12
For me, that's the most important thing.
13
Yes, definitely.
14
So do you think you'll try again in next year's contest?
15
Yes, if I can.
16
I might not win, but I think I could do better than this year.
17
2. You'll hear two friends talking about camping.
18
I'm going camping in the mountains on Friday.
19
That'll be great fun, especially with the hot weather we're having right now.
20
But the temperatures there can really drop at night, even in summer.
21
You'd better put a jacket and a thick sweater in your backpack instead of lots of things to eat.
22
You can always get a tasty meal in one of the local villages.
23
Where exactly will you be going?
24
Up by the lake.
25
It's beautiful there, isn't it?
26
But perhaps it'd be best to put your tent up somewhere else.
27
At this time of year the mosquitoes there are awful.
28
They never stop biting.
29
3. You will hear a boy talking to his friend about a literature exam.
30
You've got that literature exam next week, haven't you?
31
How's the revision going?
32
I thought I'd be getting tired of it by now,
33
but your suggestion
34
that I should watch films of the books we have to study has made it more interesting
35
and I understand the stories better.
36
Usually, just before an important exam like this one,
37
I feel really worried about what could go wrong on the day.
38
This time's quite different though.
39
That's great to hear.
40
I'm sure you'll do really well on Monday morning.
41
Good luck!
42
4. You will hear a girl telling a friend about studying abroad.
43
Did you enjoy your month abroad?
44
Yes, I was in a small town in the countryside.
45
The lessons were good, even though the rest of the class were younger than me,
46
and we didn't have much in common.
47
I had a lovely room in the house where I was staying.
48
The couple I was staying with were kind to me,
49
but they had a busy social life and I hardly saw them.
50
So, I went to the main square,
51
where all the shops and cafes are, and made friends there.
52
We had a great time hanging out and chatting.
53
5. You will hear a boy telling his friend about how he travels to school.
54
I see you're using your bike every day now instead of coming to school in your mum's car.
55
Yes, I've been doing that since the beginning of term.
56
Actually, she still goes right past school on her way to work,
57
so it's not about protecting the environment,
58
spending less on petrol or anything like that.
59
It's just that I realised I was spending nearly all my time sitting down,
60
in class and at home,
61
and I thought I'd better do something about it.
62
That's a good idea.
63
Maybe I should do the same.
64
6. You will hear a girl talking to a friend about going shopping.
65
So, how was your shopping trip yesterday?
66
I imagine the city centre's pretty crowded on a Saturday morning at this time of the year.
67
Yes, there were lots of people walking in the streets,
68
and the department store was full of customers too.
69
I don't mind that, but I wasn't happy about having shop assistants trying to sell me stuff
70
when all I wanted to do was look at things on the shelves.
71
I noticed they were bothering other customers too.
72
If they carry on like that,
73
their shop won't be full much longer.

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.
