23
Oh no!
24
So what did you do?
25
Did you stay in a guest house near the farm?
26
We found a very modern hotel that had a family room for all of us.
27
It was so nice, with such a good restaurant and pool, that we booked in for the whole week.

Good morning.
34
Do you know what time the next coach to Glasgow leaves?
35
I think there is one leaving at 11 .45, isn't there?
36
Unfortunately, they told us that it has been cancelled because the driver is sick.
37
There's usually another one at 12 .15, but that has been delayed because of a problem with the engine.
38
Oh no, I need to be in Glasgow before 2pm.
39
I have an important school project there.
40
Don't worry, the 12 .15 will actually leave at 12 .30, so you'll have plenty of time to get there on time.

Your job at the hotel must be very difficult at times, Dad.
57

58
Only a few people have problems with our staff, especially with our waiters and waitresses.
59
What about the receptionists?
60
Dad, do they ever have any problems with guests?
61
Sometimes yes, but it's very unusual.
62
If there's a problem, I'm called from my office and I have to go and see what is happening.
63
But I don't mind that.
64
It's my job.

78
You have 10 seconds.
79
You will hear a teacher talking to students about a sports day.
80
We have changed the day of our sports day this year.
81
This is because we want to include swimming events, and our new swimming pool won't be ready until June the 4th.
82
The new date will be Friday, June the 14th.
83
I think this will be much better for everybody.
84
I hope that all of you will be interested in doing something for our sports day.
85
Please put your name on the events list if you would like to take part.
86
The list will be put on the wall beside the library until Thursday.
87
If you have any questions, Miss Pink, that's P -I -N -K, our sports teacher, will be available to answer them during lunch break on Monday.
88
We will have many of our usual events, such as a volleyball match and, of course, a football match.
89
However, this year we will also have one more new event.
90
This is a cycling race in which teachers can take part.
91
It will be at the end of the day before prizes are given to the winner of each race.
92
I hope to see you all there.

111
Hi, Sarah.
112
Did you get my text message about the party?
113
For next weekend.
114
So you didn't, then.
115
It's going to be a week later.
116
I forgot we have exams next week.
117
Right.
118
So, where's your party going to be?
119
Your house?
120
No, my parents will be at home the night I want my party.
121
Oh no!
122
So what will we do, Tim?
123
Jack said we could go to his house.
124
Well, at least we can invite all our friends.
125
Yes, but it's quite far from here and it's not as large as yours.
126
I know.
127
Jack also said that because he lives in a quiet area, the party must finish at midnight.
128
He will have problems with his neighbours if it doesn't.
129
That's a pity.
130
It was great last time when your party finished at three in the morning.
131
That's why I prefer parties in the winter.
132
The doors and windows are closed.
133
Now it's summer, everyone will hear the noise from the music and dancing.
134
I suppose so.
135
Can't we close the windows?
136
Actually, I thought I would have the party in the garden.
137
This way the guests will have more space.
138
That sounds great.
139
Now listen again.
140

Your house?
149
No, my parents will be at home the night I want my party.
150
Oh no!
151
So what will we do, Tim?
152

No problem, Mum.
173
I like to help when I can.
174
I hope you didn't forget anything.
175
I got everything I remembered.
176
Milk, bread, vegetables and the newspaper.
177
Didn't you make a shopping list?
178
Yes, but I left it on a table at home.
179
Well, let's hope everything's here.
180
Now listen again.
181

Hi Jackie, what's the matter?
193
You look upset.
194
I missed the train.
195
Didn't you hear your alarm clock again?
196
Yes, I did.
197
I actually got up earlier than usual, but they changed the timetable so I was on the wrong platform.
198
Oh no, didn't you try and run to get the train?
199
It was too late to do anything when I found out.
200
Now listen again.

209
18. You will hear a girl talking about her neighbour.
210
What happens to Mr Brown last night?
211
I saw an ambulance at Mr Brown's house yesterday evening, but I spoke to his daughter after the ambulance left.
212
He wasn't as bad as they thought at first, so he didn't need to go to hospital.
213
His leg was making him feel awful, so she thought it was broken.
214
Luckily it wasn't.
215
He was just in pain.
216
Now listen again.

225
His English isn't good enough.
226
Or not as good as mine, at least.
227
He speaks English quite well, but his vocabulary isn't good enough to understand some instructions, so he couldn't answer all the questions on the computer test.
228
It's a pity.
229
He can drive really well.
230

If you look on the map, we're just here.
239
No, we're not.
240
There aren't any mountains around here.
241
But we passed that lake only two minutes ago.
242
You were going so fast that I didn't see it.
243
Well, we'll go on a bit further then.
244
If we're going the right way, we'll drive past the train station soon.
245
I hope you're right, but I think we're lost.
246
Well, let's see if you're right.
247
Now listen again.

It wasn't very good.
264
First, all students met at the school.
265
It was so hot there yesterday.
266
Then we all had to meet some of the teachers at the coach station, which was very dirty.
267
Then we all went by coach to a museum in the city centre.
268
Were the roads very busy?
269
Was there too much traffic, as usual?
270
No, but we couldn't open the windows.
271
It was thirty degrees yesterday, so it was much too hot inside.
272
Oh dear, but was the museum interesting, at least?
273
Quite the opposite, actually.
274
I didn't enjoy it at all.
275
It was very big, but it was full of old things that I don't like.
276
Then we went to the cafe to buy some lunch.
277
Oh yes, they have a big cafe there, don't they?
278
Yes, and it wasn't expensive, but there were so many people that there was nowhere to sit.
279
Did you look in the museum shop?
280
They have nice books in there.
281
Yes, that wasn't boring, but they were asking too much money for everything.
282
You must have been happy to get back on the coach and come home.
283
Yes, but we had to walk half a kilometre to get to the car park.
284
Oh dear.

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.
