Everyone Needs a Favourite Place by Rebecca Grant Today I want to write about my favourite place.
13
It's by the window in my bedroom.
14
I've got a dark red armchair and a blanket.
15
My grandma made the blanket for me when I was little.
16
Next to the chair is a bookshelf with my favourite books and there's also a little chest of drawers.
17
On top of it there are some stones I collected from the beach.
18
I've got a few photographs on one side of the window and a mirror on the other side.
19
I've got curtains on my window too.
20
Do you have a favourite place at home?
21
Is it in your bedroom or in the sitting room or somewhere else?
22
Maybe you don't have one but you want to make somewhere you like special.
23
Then here are a few ideas to help you create your special place.
24
1. Light is important in a room.
25
Is there natural light or do you need a lamp?
26
2. You don't need a lot of furniture.
27
A chair or an armchair is enough.
28
Or you can put a few large cushions on the carpet in a corner.
29
You don't really need anything else.
30
3. What colours do you like around you?
31
Use something like cushions to give colour to your bed.
32
Posters and blankets work well for colour too.
33
4. Now you can collect some favourite things to put in your special place.
34
Remember, no one is the same, so everyone's favourite place is different.
35
Anyone can make their place special.
36
Track 64.
37
Artists' Favourite Places.
38
1. Gemma Blake, painter.
39
Last summer, I spent four weeks on the northwest coast of Scotland in a little house by the sea.
40
In the evenings, I sat by the open window and listened to the sound of the wind and the waves.
41
It was wonderful.
42
After breakfast, when I went out to paint and draw, I always had lots of ideas for pictures.
43
Most days I didn't see anyone except my neighbour.
44
He was a fisherman.
45
He really liked my work and I sold him a drawing for his wall.
46
I grew up in a small town in Canada.
47
My grandma took me for walks and told me everything about the animals and plants there.
48
When I was 19, I went to music school in Toronto.
49
At first, I loved the big city.
50
Then I started writing my own songs about, guess what, nature in and around my hometown.
51
So five years ago, I moved back, and now I don't want to live anywhere else.
52
3. Paul Davidson, dancer.
53
I started dancing when I was very young.
54
It was hard work, but I was good,
55
and I danced with famous companies in Russia, the USA, and Europe.
56
I didn't really have a home, so when I had enough money, I bought a tiny flat in London.
57
I love it there.
58
The world of dance is busy and tiring, and it's great to be able to get back to my flat.
59
I close the door, lie on my bed and listen to music.
60
Track 65 Hi, my name's George.
61
You asked me about my favourite place.
62
That's a difficult one.
63
Let me explain.
64
I don't really have anywhere of my own because our flat's too small
65
and we don't have a garden i share a bedroom with my brother so i don't get much time to myself
66
but when he goes out
67
or goes to play with his friends i can be alone in our bedroom
68
and at those times the bedroom is my favorite place i put all the cushions on my bed lie there
69
and read what do i like reading well mostly stories and sports magazines
70
Hello, I'm Abby.
71
My favourite place.
72
Hmm, let me think.
73
Okay, don't laugh.
74
My favourite place isn't anywhere inside the house.
75
It's outside, in the park down the road.
76
I can walk there in five minutes.
77
There's this amazing tree right on the top of the hill, and there's usually no one around.
78
I like sitting under the tree and writing my diary every day.
79
The sound of the wind in the trees is brilliant.
80
It helps me remember everything about my day.
81
No one else reads my diary, only me.
82
Hi, I'm Jo.
83
Yes, I've got a favourite place.
84
It isn't in the house, though, and it isn't outside.
85
It's in the garage.
86
We don't have a car so my mum and dad let me use the garage for my music.
87
I started playing the guitar when I was six and that's what I do in the garage.
88
And sometimes I sing.
89
I write all my own songs but I don't like anyone listening to them.
90
It's quite comfortable.
91
There's an armchair in the corner and I've got pictures on the walls it really is my favorite place

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.
