3
Exercise 1.
4
For each question, choose the correct answer.
5
1. What subject does the boy want to study at university?
6
It's really hard to decide what to study at university because I like science a lot, especially doing experiments.
7
But my history teacher is brilliant this year and I've really enjoyed everything we've done with him.
8
Anyway, in the end, I think IT is the future.
9
I mean, there are more jobs working with technology than jobs which involve knowing things about the past, so that's what I've chosen.
10
2. Where is the girl's physics book?
11
Dad, have you seen my physics book?
12
I think I left it on the kitchen table last night, but it's not there now.
13
You know you should get your school bag ready in the evening.
14
Where were you studying yesterday?
15
In my room, but then I decided to read on the sofa downstairs for a while.
16
Look, here it is, under the cushion.
17
3. When is the chemistry exam?
18
Hi, Danny.
19
I'm just phoning you because I was ill yesterday and I missed the chemistry class.
20
Did the teacher say when the next exam is?
21
Yes, he wanted us to do it next Tuesday, but there's a school trip that day, so he changed the exam to the end of the week.
22
Oh, that's great.
23
If it's on a Friday, we'll have more time to study.
24
Right, it's in the second class.
25
Don't forget we've got to do our biology presentations on Thursday morning as well.
26
Oh, no. 4.
27
Which after-school activity is most popular?
28
There's a wide range of activities to choose from in our after-school clubs.
29
You can join the Art and Design group.
30
There are plenty of spaces in that one, and it's a friendly group.
31
Or there's computer programming, but that might be difficult to get in, because more students have already joined this year.
32
If you like sport, we've also got a multi-sport group.
33
They do a different sport each term, but the more unusual ones, you know, like badminton or squash.
34
5. What did they do when it started to rain?
35
How was your trip to the mountains, Jenny?
36
It was great at first.
37
It was really hot and we found a fantastic place to have lunch under some trees.
38
But in the afternoon the weather changed and it began to rain really hard.
39
It was a long way to the car, but we found a cave where we waited for it to stop.
40
The sun came out again on our way back, so we didn't get wet at all.
41
6. What was the first prize in the competition?
42
Now we have good news for the students from Oak End School.
43
The winner of our nature photography competition this year is Mark Young from Year 10.
44
His school will be presented with a video camera for his photo of sunlight on the trees in the playground.
45
The second prize, which is cinema tickets,
46
goes to Freddie Lawson's class in Green Hill School for his photo of a snail.
47
Thanks to all the schools that took part, they will all receive a certificate.
48
7. Why did the boy go to bed late?
49
You look tired, Sam.
50
Did you go to bed late last night?
51
Yeah, I was watching that TV series about detectives in New York when my brother phoned.
52
The one who lives in Australia?
53
That's right.
54
He didn't remember that it was late for us, but anyway, we were talking until after midnight.
55
Is he okay?
56
He's having a great time, although he's working hard in a restaurant every evening.

Uitspraak om op te letten
De spreker gebruikt 10 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals we've, didn't, I've. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.
- De klanken “sh” en “zh”: examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, cushion /ˈkʊʃən/, squash /skwɔʃ/, presentation /ˌpɹɛzn̩ˈteɪʃn̩/
- Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, biology /baɪˈɑ.lə.d͡ʒi/, certificate /səˈtɪf.ɪ.kɪt/
Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:
- Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: downstairs /daʊnˈstɛɹz/, playground /ˈpleɪɡɹaʊnd/, cave /keɪv/, detective /dɪˈtɛktɪv/, involve /ɪnˈvɑlv/
- /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, badminton /ˈbæd.mɪn.tən/
- /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, playground /ˈpleɪɡɹaʊnd/
Zo oefen je met deze video
- Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
- Spreek zin voor zin na op normale snelheid en herhaal elke zin tot je ritme gelijk is aan dat van de spreker.
- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als examination, cushion, squash.
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.
