There are four parts to the test.

You will hear each part twice.
4
For each part of the test, there will be time for you to look through the questions, and time for you to check your answers.
5
Write your answers on the question paper.
6
You will have six minutes at the end of the test to copy your answers onto the answer sheet.
7
The recording will now be stopped.
8
Please ask any questions now because you must not speak during the test.
9
Now open your question paper and look at part one.
10
There are seven questions in this part.
11
For each question, there are three pictures and a short recording.
12
Choose the correct picture and put a tick in the box below it.
13
Before we start, here is an example.
14
What's the time?
15
Have you got the time?
16
Yes, it's twenty past three.
17
The first picture is correct, so there is a tick in box A.
18
Look at the three pictures for question one now.
19
Now we are ready to start.
20
Listen carefully.
21
You will hear each recording twice.

23
Oh, I'm so sorry I'm late.
24
I missed the bus.

I was trying to decide whether to walk or go back and get my bike when I saw my neighbour.
26
Luckily, he offered me a lift because he works near here.

Now listen again.

2. Where does the pollution come from?
33
The stream is really dirty by the time it reaches the valley, but we've discovered where the pollution comes from.
34
We already knew that the water was pure in the mountains at the top, so we realised the pollution must come from somewhere in the forest.
35
There is a village above the forest, but we tested the water there and it was fine.
36
Now listen again.

The football match starts at 2.30, but we should get there at half past one.
42
The coach will pick us up at ten to one, as it'll take us about 40 minutes to drive there.
43
So we'll meet in the school car park.
44
Don't be late, boys, will you?
45
Now listen again.

5. Which present has the man bought?
69
Is the book in this bag for Mum, then?
70
I didn't think she was particularly interested in flowers.
71
I thought she'd like it, to give her some good ideas for the garden.
72
And even if she never reads it, it's got some lovely photos.

Oh, here they are, with your coffee cups.
87
I hope they aren't dirty.

Mastering PET Listening Part 1: Real-Life Dialogues for Practical English
The video features a Cambridge Preliminary English Test (PET) listening practice, focusing on everyday conversations that mirror real-life scenarios. From discussing how someone got to work to identifying pollution sources, these dialogues are packed with natural language—perfect for building listening comprehension and speaking skills. Whether you’re prepping for the PET or just want to sound more fluent, the exchanges here highlight common phrases and conversational flow you’ll use daily.
Top 5 Phrases for Daily Communication
- "offered me a lift": A common way to say someone gave you a ride. Example: "My neighbor offered me a lift when I missed the bus."
- "pure water": Describes clean, unpolluted water. Useful for talking about the environment or health.
- "ten to one": Means 12:50. Learning time phrases like this helps with scheduling and daily plans.
- "pick us up": When a vehicle collects you. Example: "The coach will pick us up at the station."
- "don't be late": A friendly reminder to arrive on time—essential for work, meetings, or social events.
Step-by-Step Shadowing Guide to Boost Speaking & Pronunciation
The shadowing technique is a powerful way to improve English pronunciation and fluency, and this video is ideal for practicing it. Here’s how to start:
- Listen once to grasp the main idea: Focus on the context—are they talking about transportation, time, or the environment? This helps you follow along more easily.
- Shadow the second playback: Pause after each sentence, then repeat it aloud immediately, mimicking the tone, speed, and stress. For example, when the speaker says, "I missed the bus," copy the slight emphasis on "missed" to sound natural.
- Notice connected speech: Phrases like "offered me a lift" flow together—practice saying them without pausing between words. This is key for sounding like a native.
- Repeat tricky phrases: If "ten to one" feels hard, say it 5 times in a row. Shadow speak thrives on repetition, so don’t rush.
- Record yourself: Compare your version to the video. Do you match the intonation? Adjust until your pronunciation feels smooth.
By using the shadowing technique with these dialogues, you’ll not only improve your listening skills but also build the confidence to use these phrases in real conversations. English speaking practice doesn’t have to be complicated—start with small, daily sessions, and you’ll see progress quickly.
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.
