1
Now we shall begin.
2
You should answer the questions as you listen, because you will not hear the recording a second time.
3
Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.
4
Hello, this is the Leighton Society.
5
How can I help?
6
Oh, hello.
7
I'm just phoning you because I'm interested in becoming a member of your society, and I was wondering if you could give me some more information.
8
Of course.
9
What would you like to know?
10
Well, first of all, I'd like to know where you hold the club meetings, as I'm not very mobile anymore, and I'm looking for somewhere that's within walking distance of my house.
11
Are you still down at the old boathouse?
12
No, we moved away from there a while ago.
13
Meetings are now held at the clubhouse.
14
Oh brilliant, that's only five minutes from me.
15
Do you require members to have any skills or experience?
16
No, there is no experience required.
17
We have plenty of female singers and actresses, but we don't have many men who can play the male roles.
18
We are looking to resolve this, and are especially interested in recruiting male actors and singers.
19
I've never sung professionally, but I'm very keen on it, and I've been told that I'm talented, So I think this would be a good fit.
20
Do you organise coaches to transport members to practice at the theatre?
21
Unfortunately the club does not have sufficient funds to organise transportation, though this is something we are working towards.
22
We are currently looking for members who can drive so that we can organise car sharing.
23
Members who are able to shuttle people in their cars will obviously be compensated for their petrol usage.
24
I don't drive, but I'll be happy to contribute some money in order to use the shuttle services.
25
Yes, that is no problem.
26
Are you aware of when the meetings take place?
27
No, I couldn't find the meeting times on your website.
28
We hold meetings from 6 to 8pm every Tuesday.
29
Ah, that's lucky.
30
I go to a debating club every Wednesday, so I'm glad that it's on a different night so I can attend both.
31
Do you operate year-round?
32
We used to close during December for the Christmas period, but we found that a lot of members wanted to continue their practices during this time.
33
We operate for most of the year, but we do, however, close for August because the weather gets so hot that we are unable to practice comfortably.
34
This may change when we have enough funds to operate the air conditioning.
35
you hear the rest of the conversation you have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.
36
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
37
Okay, I also wanted to ask how much the membership fee is and what is included with it.
38
Our membership fee is inexpensive and it includes many benefits that certainly make the costs worth it.
39
For example, we hold an annual event where members can meet each other and converse about topics that they have in common.
40
We find that this is very popular as the dinner is truly superb and included with your membership fee.
41
Wow, that sounds great.
42
And how much does membership cost?
43
We have a couple of membership rates depending on your age and situation.
44
For employed members under the age of 30, the fee is £40, while it costs £60 for members aged between 30 and 60.
45
Which of these categories do you fit into?
46
Oh, I don't fit into either of those.
47
I'm 65 years old and retired, so I'm no longer employed.
48
That's no problem at all.
49
You qualify for the lowest price membership fee of £25, which applies to those who are either unemployed or retired.
50
Wow, that's really affordable.
51
I was thinking of bringing my grandson along to some of the practices, so what would the membership cost for him?
52
He's 14.
53
I'm afraid that the club is for adults only.
54
That is to say, we don't allow members who are age 16 and under.
55
He is welcome to join in two years' time, though.
56
Ah, that's a shame.
57
I guess I can wait and buy him a membership for his birthday present.
58
Yes, what a good idea.
59
I was hoping I could bring him with me so I have someone there to talk to.
60
I'm worried that I won't have anything in common with the other members.
61
I'm sure you'll fit in just fine.
62
All our members are very friendly and interested in culture and music.
63
Most of the people involved are modern authors looking for new experiences to write about in their books.
64
You could read some of their books so you have something to discuss with them.
65
That's a good suggestion.
66
I'll definitely do that.
67
I'm really looking forward to attending the annual dinner so I can meet new people and hopefully make some friends.
68
Absolutely.
69
Everyone has a great night and it's all for charity, as all of the money raised from this event is donated to the Children's Hospital so they can buy toys and clothes.
70
Wow, what a great cause!
71
Well, I will definitely be popping in soon to arrange my membership.
72
Thank you for all of your help.
73
No problem at all.
74
Goodbye.
75
Bye.
76
Now turn to section 2.

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 shuttle, employ, retire.
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.
