1
In part one, I asked you some personal questions.
2
Let's talk about food.
3
What is your favorite type of food?
4
My favorite type of food.
5
There's a lot of food out there.
6
if i really have to dig deep um i'd say i like fast food um definitely like my poutines
7
and burgers um barbecue food too uh ribs i think that's
8
probably one of my favorite foods how often do you eat at restaurants Eating at restaurants, I think it depends on the week.
9
You know, having a bad week, maybe a little bit more, three, four times having a good week.
10
Maybe I'm at home a little more.
11
Maybe just one, two times.
12
I think it depends.
13
- Do you prefer home cooked meals or eating out?
14
- Home cooked meals.
15
I think everyone loves home cooked meals at the end of the day.
16
It's great to come home to a nice filling meal.
17
Definitely some of my favorite home cooked meals for sure.
18
Definitely remember my mom having home cooked meals.
19
That's probably the best part.
20
Thank you.
21
Now let's talk about communication.
22
How do you usually communicate with your friends?
23
Communicate with my friends.
24
I'd say Instagram and Snapchat on social media is for the most part how I talk to them.
25
Why is that?
26
I think it's more so just my age group with what I'd like to talk to and the easiest way to communicate.
27
It's very popular.
28
It's easy.
29
You prefer texting or calling?
30
It depends on who I'm talking to.
31
Some of my close friends, I do enjoy calling them.
32
I find it a little bit more personal.
33
But day to day, I'd say I text more than I call.
34
How would you say communication has changed compared to the past?
35
Thank you.
36
Obviously, in the last couple of years, there's more and more social media and more and more people on it.
37
So I think that's changed the most.
38
You know, people used to be more face -to -face talking and now you're talking on social media a lot more.
39
It's changed a lot in that way.
40
okay now let's talk about your hobbies and interests
41
so what is it what is your favorite hobby and how often do you do it My favourite hobby,
42
I'd have to say in the summertime, would definitely be golfing.
43
I love getting out on the golf course.
44
It's beautiful out there, very relaxing.
45
It's great to do.
46
In the wintertime, I'd say snowboarding would be my favourite.
47
I don't get out as much as I'd like to, but it's one of my favourite things to do.
48
Okay.
49
Have your hobbies changed since childhood?
50
Definitely have changed since childhood.
51
Growing up, finding new friends, new interests, they've changed.
52
I used to play soccer quite a bit as a child, not so much anymore, more so just the golfing.
53
Take it easy.
54
Why do you think they've changed?
55
How do you think they've changed?
56
I think just growing older, you know, things change.
57
Obviously, as a child, you have a lot of different friends, a lot different interests, you know, everyone wants to grow up and be a professional soccer player,
58
but.. at the end of the day not everyone can do
59
that so i think just getting older maturing has changed for the most part do you prefer hobbies
60
that require more physical activity
61
or more mental engagement definitely growing up playing sports i'd say physical activity um having
62
that little bit of competitiveness behind myself I definitely enjoy having a little bit of fun, you know, trying to win.
63
Not everyone always does, but I enjoy it.
64
Why do you think Morph is called it mental?
65
I think that's where my strong suits are, definitely on the physical side of things.
66
All right.
67
So that concludes part one.
68
We're going to move to part two.
69
And in part two, I'm going to give you a topic.
70
And I'd like you to talk about the topic for two minutes.
71
before you talk you'll have about a minute so you can write things down i have a pen and paper here
72
you can make notes
73
if you wish you understand yes i understand okay you can take some paper
74
and a pencil to make notes and your topic is describe a time when you helped a stranger okay
75
so let me start the clock and you can have One minute.
76
Alright, go ahead.
77
Okay, that was a minute.
78
You can start speaking now.
79
Times I've helped a stranger.
80
I think it's kind of hard to pinpoint just one time I've helped a stranger.
81
I think over the past, you seem to help strangers a lot more than you remember you do.
82
Just the simple things, opening doors for people, giving them compliments, just talking to someone when they need it.
83
I think that's more helping a stranger than anyone could ever believe.
84
It's definitely different.
85
And of course, you have your family growing up, helping them.
86
Maybe not strangers, maybe family, friends, friends.
87
I feel you're always helping someone at the end of the day.
88
Just talking to someone, communicating is definitely a big way to help strangers.
89
anyone day can maybe not be going so great
90
and having a small conversation can definitely just help them out
91
um opening the door giving a suggestion to someone um just
92
starting a conversation i would say it's probably the best way
93
to help someone nowadays a lot of people are tied off
94
and don't want to talk to anyone but just offering
95
that little bit of hey how are you doing i think that's a great way to help strangers
96
and definitely things i've done in the past is people, I find it helps quite a bit.
97
And then obviously, you know, just your day to day things at work, helping customers, they're strangers to me at the end of the day,
98
helping them trying to fix all their problems, make sure they have great customer service, still helping strangers.
99
I think there's more things you do in life that you don't realize that end up helping strangers.
100
Because.. that concludes part two we're going to move to part three
101
and we've been talking about helping strangers and i'd now like to ask you some questions related to this
102
So why do people help strangers?
103
I think that's a very good question.
104
Why do people help strangers?
105
I think it's to almost make themselves feel good at some point.
106
Everyone likes, you know, trying to offer someone some help and it definitely makes yourself and makes yourself look good.
107
It's not always easy, but I think that's why people do it.
108
Self -gratitude.
109
I think that's why.
110
Do you think people today are less willing to help others compared to maybe people in the past?
111
I think so.
112
I think in the past people were brought up on the I help you, you help me.
113
I think things are a little divided nowadays and not everyone's willing to help everyone.
114
I think that should change.
115
But going back to your question, yes, I do think it's different from the past from now.
116
Should children be taught to help others?
117
Children should definitely be taught to help others.
118
Obviously, from a young age, they're very influenced by all their peers and adults.
119
They should be taught how to treat people right
120
and how to talk to people and how to help people they don't know and just general things.
121
Thank you.
122
Do you think large organizations or individuals have a bigger responsibility to help society?
123
I think they do.
124
They're playing a huge role in people's lives nowadays, for sure.
125
And they have huge platforms that they should be using for the better to help those people.
126
I think that's the best way to put that.
127
They should be more influenced on everyone else and trying to help everyone else.
128
They have a big voice.
129
They should definitely be using it.
130
In your opinion, does helping others always make a difference?
131
It doesn't always make a difference.
132
No, not everyone's willing to accept the help or wants the help.
133
But all you can do is try as a human being.
134
That's all you can do.
135
It's a difficult one for sure, but everyone needs a little bit of respect and trying to help them out.
136
I think that's the right thing to do, but not everyone's willing to do that.
137
Alright, well thank you very much.
138
This is the end of the speaking test.
139

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.
