1
Let's start off by talking about the mountains.
2
Do you like to go on holiday in the mountains?
3
Definitely.
4
It's one of my favourite things to do.
5
I actually love nature and the mountains specifically.
6
I always handpick locations which have mountains and beautiful landscape, greenery.
7
And I love hiking as well, so that's why.
8
Are there any hotels in the mountains in your country?
9
Yes, actually.
10
In Himachal, they have lodges.
11
They rent it out to people who are there on vacations.
12
And it's the most beautiful experience because you get to actually see how people who are based there,
13
how they live and how they cook and how they clean.
14
And you get the whole experience of everything.
15
Now let's talk about trees.
16
Do you like trees?
17
Yeah, actually, I love trees.
18
I love spending time around trees.
19
When I look at a tree,
20
I feel very alive because there is just so much history that goes with it.
21
I mean, especially like you get oxygen.
22
So when you just sit there and meditate,
23
it's like the best feeling in the world.
24
You feel very refreshed as well.
25
Are there many trees around your hometown?
26
There are, but not so much as of now because it's mostly city and buildings and shops.
27
But I would love for it to be.
28
What are the benefits of planting more trees?
29
There are only benefits of planting more trees.
30
I mean, it protects you from so many things and it's so much better for your health to have trees around you.
31
Also, I think for plantation,
32
even for food and stuff like to get fresh fruits and vegetables,
33
you can always have it available outside of your home if you just have like those planted trees around you.
34
Now, let's talk about the weather.
35
What time of year did you enjoy the most when you were a child?
36
I would definitely say November, December so like towards the end of the year when winter arrives or even during September,
37
October when it's rainy season.
38
I enjoy myself the most I think because I love
39
when it's cold and chilly and you can just go out for a walk or play outside with your friends.
40
I think that's when I enjoy it the most.
41
Has the weather changed much in recent years?
42
I would say drastically yes.
43
It's gotten hotter and hotter and humid.
44
I think because of global warming,
45
it's been really bad lately.
46
Would you say the weather in your hometown is suitable for working?
47
I mean, around December, yes.
48
But throughout the year, no. It's very, very hot.
49
Back in India, it's like when you get out,
50
it's a lot of humidity and you just don't feel your best.
51
The TV documentary that I watched was a documentary on the artist Eminem.
52
He goes by the name Marshall Mathers.
53
And I remember I was very young when I watched it.
54
And the reason I love it is because it's very inspiring.
55
Because in the movie, he shows all of his struggles and the poverty that he went through.
56
And he was very unfortunate as a child.
57
And even when he was a teenager and
58
that goes to show how much determination he had towards his dreams
59
and his plans and goals of the future that he knew
60
that he was going to make it big in the music industry
61
and now he's known to be one of the biggest musical artists in the industry.
62
I learned inspiration from that movie.
63
I think it gives you a lot of motivation every time you watch it.
64
It goes to show that you know no matter what,
65
no matter where you come from,
66
no matter how small your hometown was or how many obstacles you had in life,
67
but still you can make it big.
68
And it also goes to show
69
that you just have to be passionate about what it is that you want in your life.
70
And through that, you can achieve the greatest things
71
and you can surpass even your highest levels of insecurities and doubts that you have and the fears that you have.
72
And he's also like one of my favorite artists.
73
So to see him go through that really inspires you
74
and shows you that you can do it no matter what it is
75
that it's usually self-doubt which keeps you from chasing your dreams or from achieving your goals.
76
But in that movie, it's shown that you can really do whatever you want.
77
So we've been talking about a TV documentary that you watched,
78
and we're going to continue to talk about TV programs and TV advertising.
79
Do you think that there are too many game shows on TV nowadays?
80

87
Thanks very much.
88
And let's get back to the video.
89
I don't think so.
90
No, I think there's enough for everyone.
91
So I think there is a lot of different genres that people can watch.
92
And game shows are mostly educational.
93
So I think that's also very necessary in today's generation
94
and to remind everyone to have fun and not take life so seriously.
95
Is TV the main way people get news in your country?
96
Yes, for sure.
97
I would agree.
98
I mean, it's one of the most important outlets from where people can know what's going on,
99
the breaking news or what happened yesterday, everyone's always aware.
100
Now let's talk about TV advertising.
101
What kind of products are advertised most often on TV?
102
I would say mostly home products like cleaning products or soaps or maybe beauty products are mostly what's advertised.
103
Or also electronic appliances are very much advertised in my country.
104
Do you think that people pay attention to adverts on TV?
105
you every step of the way until you get the score
106
that you need all you have to do is just look down in the description just click
107
that and you can sign up
108

110
that we get hope that you become a vip
111
if not enjoy the rest of this free video not as much as they used to
112
because back then it was a form of entertainment but now they just want to skip
113
and reach the show that they're watching.
114
It's not as much as it used to be.
115
I think people grew impatient now.
116
They're not as patient as they used to be because of the fast-paced life everyone's going through.
117
So they want everything quick.
118
How important are regulations on TV advertising?
119
I think they are very important and there should be regulations,
120
but at the same time,
121
I think that it's not followed as much as it should be.
122
That's the end of the speaking test.
123
Well done.
124
Thank you.

- Begin op 0,75× snelheid, spreek zin voor zin na en ga terug naar normale snelheid zodra het makkelijk gaat.
- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als advertise, hometown, inspire.
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.
