There will be time for you to read the instructions and questions,
4
and you'll have a chance to check your work.
5
All the recordings will be played once only.

The test is in four sections.

Now turn to section one.
10
Section one.
11
You will hear a conversation between a student looking for a host family and a housing advisor.
12
First, you have some time to look at questions one to five.
13
You will see that there is an example which has been done for you.
14
On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.
15
Good morning.
16
How can I help you?
17
Good morning.
18
Um, I understand you help fix up students with host families.
19
That's right.

27
Can you spell that, please?
28
Yes.
29
J-E-N-N-Y-C-H-A-N.
30
Right.
31
And what is your present address?
32
The student's name is Jenny Chan,
33
so Jenny Chan has been written on the form.
34
Now we shall begin.
35
You should answer the questions as you listen,
36
because you will not hear the recording a second time.
37
Listen carefully and answer questions one to five.
38
Good morning.
39
How can I help you?
40
Good morning.
41
Um, I understand you help fix up students with host families.
42
That's right.
43
Are you interested in...
44
Yes.
45
Well, please sit down and I'll just take a few details.
46
Thank you.
47
Right.
48
Now, what name is it?
49
Jenny Chan.
50
Can you spell that, please?
51
Yes.
52
J-E-N-N-Y-C-H-A-N.
53
Right.
54
And what is your present address?
55
Seaview Guesthouse, 14 Hill Road.
56
Okay.
57
And do you know the phone number there?
58
Yes, I have it here.
59
2237 676.
60
But I'm only there after about 7 p.m.
61
So when would be the best time to catch you?
62
I suppose between nine and,
63
let me see, half past,
64
before I leave for the college.
65
Great.
66
And can I ask you your age?
67
I've just had my 19th birthday.
68
And how long would you want to stay with the host family?
69
I'm planning on staying a year,
70
but at the moment I'm definitely here for four months only.
71
I have to get an extension to my permit.
72
You're working on it?
73
Mm.
74
Fine.
75
And what will be your occupation while you're in the UK?
76
studying English
77
and what would you say your level of English is good I think I'd like to say advanced
78
but my written work is below the level of my spoken
79
so I suppose it's intermediate certainly your spoken English is advanced anyway which Which area do you think you would prefer?
80
Um, well, I'm studying right in the centre,
81
but I'd really like to live in the north-west.
82
That shouldn't be a great problem.
83
We usually have lots of families up there...
84
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
85
you have some time to look at questions six to ten.
86
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
87
And do you have any particular requirements for diet?
88
Well, I'm nearly a vegetarian.
89
Not quite.
90
Shall I say you are?
91
It's probably easier that way.
92
That would be best.
93
Anything about your actual room?
94
I would prefer my own facilities.
95
En suite, is that right?
96
Mm-hmm.
97
And also, if it's possible, a TV.
98
And I'd also like the house to have a real garden,
99
rather than just a yard.
100
Somewhere I could sit and be peaceful.
101
Is that all?
102
Well, I'm really serious about improving my English,
103
so I'd prefer to be the only guest, if that's possible.
104
No other guests.
105
Yes, you get more practice that way.
106
Anyway, obviously, all this is partly dependent on how much you're willing to pay.
107
What did you have in mind?
108
I was thinking in terms of about 60 to 80 pounds a week,
109
but I'd go up to 100 if it was something special.
110
Well, I don't think we'd have any problems finding something for you.
111
Oh, good.
112
And when would you want it for?
113
I'd like to move in approximately two weeks.
114
Let me see.
115
It's the 10th today, so if we go for the Monday,
116
it's the 23rd of March.
117
Yes.
118
Right.
119
Good.
120
And if I could ask one last question.
121
Thank you.

Woordenschat en spreektips bij deze les

Deze spreekles op niveau B1 is gebaseerd op de video “Host Family Applicant”. Deze woorden komen het vaakst terug: answer, hear, Jenny, Chan, host. Deze video bevat 120 zinnen en 764 woorden om na te spreken. Het gesproken deel duurt 7:07. De spreker praat langzaam, ongeveer 107 woorden per minuut, zodat je tijd hebt om elke klank na te doen. 85% van de woorden hoort bij de 3.000 meest gebruikte Engelse woorden; de rest kun je beter vooraf bekijken. 22 van de 120 zinnen zijn vragen, dus het is goede oefening voor vraagintonatie en korte antwoorden.

Grammatica in deze video

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

StructuurIn de video
Lijdende vorm be + voltooid deelwoord — het gaat om wat er gebeurt, niet om wie het doetwill be played · will be given · has been done
Present perfect have/has + voltooid deelwoord — iets uit het verleden dat nu nog telthas been done · has been written · I've just had
Toekomst met “will” will + werkwoord — een besluit, belofte of voorspellingwill hear · you'll have · will be
Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — iets dat nu of in deze periode gebeurtI'm planning · You're working · I'm studying

Uitspraak om op te letten

De spreker gebruikt 23 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals I'd, I'm, you're. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.

  • De klanken “sh” en “zh”: instruction /ɪnˈstɹʌkʃən/, occupation /ˌɑkjʊˈpeɪʃən/
  • Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: vegetarian /vɛ.d͡ʒɪˈtɛ.ɹi.ən/, intermediate /ɪn.tə(ɹ)ˈmi.di.ət/, occupation /ˌɑkjʊˈpeɪʃən/

Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:

  • /w/ — met ronde lippen: suite /swiːt/, requirement /ɹɪˈkwaɪɹmənt/

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 vegetarian, advisor, intermediate.

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.
