The obsessive picnic tradition probably originated in medieval times,
61
with pilgrims' wayside meals, as well as the gargantuan outdoor feasts held before hunting parties.
62
By the 17th century, it was common entertainment for the gentry to eat out of doors in the rustic manner.
63
However, so worried were they that inclement weather might spoil their great hooped dresses and satin breeches,
64
that they dotted little Arcadian pavilions around their grounds as a precautionary measure, to dive into if it rained.
65
It was not until the 18th century that the essential picnic staple was invented by John Montagu, the fourth Earl of Sandwich,

that evocative and much maligned British food icon that took his name.

84
Thank you.
85
John, how did you become interested in diving?
86
I always had a great interest in underwater adventure.
87
When I was about 13, I experimented with a friend by converting some submarine escape apparatus we found.
88
I tied a sack of bricks around my waist and was lowered into about 15 feet of water in the harbour.
89
When I jerked the rope to signal that I had had enough, I saw the rope snaking down towards me.
90
I had to haul myself up the harbour wall with the bricks weighing me down and surfaced completely blue in the face.
91
I then joined the local sub aqua club the first in the british isles
92
but it wasn't until i joined the royal engineers

Is there anything you don't like underwater?
102
I've always felt uneasy around sharks.
103
You hear of ploys to chase them off but if a great white is heading for you at 80 miles per hour, you don't stand a chance.
104
Luckily, I've never been attacked by one, but some have come very close, and I saw one go for a cameraman once.
105
Have you ever made any serious mistakes?
106
The worst was when I got carried away during an archaeological search off Pathos in Cyprus.
107
I saw an ancient marble slab and was determined to bring it to the surface.
108
As I was struggling to bring it up, I suddenly realised I was running out of air.
109
I had to drop the slab and surface too fast.
110
I was swallowing water and I could hear rattling in my lungs.
111
My limbs stopped working and I was being swept by a powerful current towards some jagged rocks.
112
It was terrifying because it happened so slowly and I knew it was all my fault.
113
Luckily, a chap taking photos drew alongside in a boat, said, everything all right, and dragged me out was
114
that your most frightening experience i think so although i had another bad moment
115
while trying to raise a crane

131

186
that's the end of part two now turn to part three
187
you will hear part of a radio phone -in program about consumer competitions
188
that appear in magazines or are run by shops in which advice is given to people who regularly enter them
189
For questions 16 to 20, choose the answer A, B,
190
C or D, which fits best according to what you hear.
191
You now have one minute in which to look at part 3.
192
Thank you.
193
Thank you.
194
OK, today I have with me Cathy Ford, winner of more than £500 ,000 worth of prizes in all sorts of consumer competitions,
195
and dubbed the Queen of Competitions by the British Press.
196
She's now editor of Competitors World magazine, and as an expert on competitions, has appeared regularly on TV.
197
Cathy, let's go straight to our first caller, and that's Diana.
198
Diana, what's your query?
199
Yes.
200
Hello, Cathy.
201
Well, in order to send in two entries to a competition where only one entry per person was allowed, I asked my best friend if I could submit an entry in her name.
202
She agreed, and the understanding was that if her entry won, I would receive the prize, but I would buy her a small gift for allowing me to use her name.
203
Well, the inevitable has happened.
204
I've won a much -needed new washing machine, but in my friend's name, and she has now refused point -blank to hand the machine over.
205
If I went to a lawyer, would I have any hope of getting my prize from her?
206
Not even the faintest chance.
207
I'm afraid that your efforts to evade the rules have not only cost you the prize, but also your best friend as well, and legally you just don't have a leg to stand on.
208
Even if you'd drawn up some sort of legal agreement with your erstwhile friend, I think you'd find that the law would still take a very dim view of your case,
209
since it was obviously done with premeditated fraudulent intent.
210
It's not worth trying to evade the rules, as you've just found out the hard way.
211
Next, it's Ron.
212
Ron, go ahead.
213
You're through to Cathy.
214
Someone told me that some firms that run competitions keep a blacklist of frequent prize winners, and that I should use a lot of different aliases in order to avoid being put on such a list.
215
Is this true?
216
No. Competitors can sometimes get a little paranoid annoyed, and if they start going through a winless spell, and we all get them from time to time,
217
they start to imagine that they've been blacklisted.
218
No reputable firm would even contemplate such a measure, and the only time there's even a faint risk of this sort of thing happening is with in -store competitions,
219
where an individual store manager might just conceivably think, oh no, not him again, and deliberately disregard your entry.
220
For mainstream competitions, however, such worries are groundless, and the use of aliases is not only unnecessary,
221
but can even prove to be pretty stupid.
222
Think about it for a moment.
223
What would happen if you won a holiday under a phony name, or were asked to prove your identity to collect a prize at a presentation ceremony?
224
My advice is to stick with your own name, and if prizes stop arriving, take a long, close look at the quality of your entries,
225
rather than trying to blame it on blacklists.
226
OK, next it's Stan.
227
Stan, what can Cathy help you with?
228
Well, Cathy, I recently entered a competition
229
which asked you to estimate the distance between a store in Newcastle and its London head office using the shortest route.
230
In order to make my entry as accurate as possible, I used a Routemaster computer programme to determine the shortest possible way and calculate the distance,
231
quite literally, from door to door.
232
Imagine my astonishment, therefore, when I sent for the result
233
and found that the answer they had given as being correct was fully 73 miles longer than mine.
234
I know my answer was correct, so do I have grounds to make a formal objection?
235
I'm sorry, but no, you haven't.
236
As far as the promoter is concerned, the key word in the instructions here is Estimate.
237
They expect you to guess, not measure the distance accurately, and it's likely that their own answer will also be based purely on an estimate.
238
As a result, judges will always be right, even when they are wrong, as in a case like this, and in entering the competition at all,
239
you have agreed to abide by the rule that states the judge's decision is final.
240
Distance estimation competitions have always given rise to this sort of controversy, and although court cases have been brought,
241
the entrant very seldom succeeds in having the decision changed.
242
You have only to check the distance charts in road atlases to see how this type of problem occurs.
243
No two ever agree, yet as far as I know, towns simply don't move around very much.
244
OK, and now on to our next caller, who is...
245
Now you'll hear part 3 again.
246
OK.
247
Today I have with me Cathy Ford, winner of more than £500 ,000 worth of prizes in all sorts of consumer competitions,
248
and dubbed the Queen of Competitions by the British Press.
249

i know towns simply don't move around very much okay and now on to our next caller who is
298
That's the end of part 3.
299
Now turn to part 4.
300
Part 4 consists of two tasks.
301
You will hear five short extracts in which people are talking about their day at work.
302
Look at Task 1.
303
For questions 21 to 25, choose from the list A to H what happened at work.
304
Now look at Task 2.
305
For questions 26 to 30, choose from the list A to H each speaker's feeling about what happened.
306
While you listen, you must complete both tasks.
307
You now have 45 seconds in which to look at part 4.
308
Thank you.
309
Speaker 1 I didn't think there was any point doing it, but I had to just do as I was told and get on with it.
310
It took me ages, because it all had to be ready ahead of the meeting at the end of the day, and I slogged away without much of a break to get it all done.
311
And guess what?
312
They didn't have time to discuss it in the meeting, which is what I'd guessed anyway.
313
It's the sort of thing that happens quite often, but I've got used to it now.
314
In this particular case, I think that what I did might very well prove to have been worth it eventually, because I think there's a good chance they'll go ahead with the project before too long.
315
Speaker 2 Well, nobody's perfect,
316
and that includes him, so I don't know why he thinks he can tell everyone else off
317
when he's always getting things wrong himself.
318
There's no point arguing with him, though.
319
You just get in even more trouble, as some of my colleagues have found out to their cost.
320
So I just had to take it when he came and made a big thing about how badly I'd done the work.
321
In actual fact, the problem was a trivial one that took about ten seconds to fix.
322
I never let it get to me, though.
323
I know what it is like, and it doesn't bother me.
324
It's strange to suddenly find myself singled out.
325
I never thought they'd choose me for the trade fair.
326
I assumed there were far better candidates.
327
It's the sort of thing that will stand me in very good stead and might lead to other things, too.
328
I never expected such a thing to happen, and if I'm honest, I'm not sure I'm ready for it.
329
The prospect of going there and being responsible for potential deals and new business fills me with a certain amount of dread.
330
I'd hate to mess it up.
331
Speaker 4 I wasn't exactly looking forward to it,
332
as I was expecting her to be very negative about my performance in recent times.
333
I'd anticipated what she might have a go at me for, and I'd prepared my defence.
334
And indeed, she did start off by asking me how I thought I'd been doing recently,
335
but I was surprised to see that she was very much on my side.
336
It was, I thought, a very good piece of management, acknowledging that there was room for improvement, but balancing it with praise for the positives.
337
Speaker 5 I thought there would be lots of arguments, and very little would be agreed,
338
if anything, because those people simply do not get on well together, and don't have any respect for each other normally.
339
Well, that's not what happened.
340
This time, everything went through smoothly, and the whole thing was over in next to no time.
341
Quite why it all went so well is something I can't work out.
342
It doesn't make sense that they should suddenly all agree.
343
There must be some logical reason, but I can't see it.
344
Now you'll hear part four again.
345
Speaker one.
346
I didn't think there was any point doing it, but I had to just do as I was told and get on with it.
347
It took me ages, because it all had to be ready ahead of the meeting at the end of the day, and I slogged away without much of a break to get it all done.
348
And guess what?
349
They didn't have time to discuss it in the meeting, which is what I'd guessed anyway.
350
It's the sort of thing that happens quite often, but I've got used to it now.
351
In this particular case, I think that what I did might very well prove to have been worth it eventually, because I think there's a good chance they'll go ahead with the project before too long.
352
Speaker 2 Well, nobody's perfect,
353
and that includes him, so I don't know why he thinks he can tell everyone else off
354
when he's always getting things wrong himself.
355
There's no point arguing with him, though.
356
You just get in even more trouble, as some of my colleagues have found out to their cost.
357
So I just had to take it when he came and made a big thing about how badly I'd done the work.
358
In actual fact, the problem was a trivial one that took about ten seconds to fix.
359
I never let it get to me, though.
360
I know what he's like, and it doesn't bother me.
361
It's strange to suddenly find myself singled out.
362
I never thought they'd choose me for the trade fair.
363
I assumed there were far better candidates.
364
It's the sort of thing that will stand me in very good stead and might lead to other things too.
365
I never expected such a thing to happen, and if I'm honest, I'm not sure I'm ready for it.
366
The prospect of going there and being responsible for potential deals and new business fills me with a certain amount of dread.
367
I'd hate to mess it up.
368
Speaker 4 I wasn't exactly looking forward to it,
369
as I was expecting her to be very negative about my performance in recent times.
370
I'd anticipated what she might have a go at me for, and I'd prepared my defence.
371
And indeed, she did start off by asking me how I thought I'd been doing recently.
372
But I was surprised to see that she was very much on my side.
373
It was, I thought, a very good piece of management, acknowledging that there was room for improvement, but balancing it with praise for the positives.
374
Speaker 5 I thought there would be lots of arguments, and very little would be agreed, if anything.
375
Because those people simply do not get on well together, and don't have any respect for each other normally.
376
Well, that's not what happened.
377
This time everything went through smoothly, and the whole thing was over in next to no time.
378
Quite why it all went so well is something I can't work out.
379
It doesn't make sense that they should suddenly all agree.
380
There must be some logical reason, but I can't see it.
381
That is the end of part four.
382
There will now be a pause of five minutes for you to copy your answers onto the separate answer sheet.
383
Be sure to follow the numbering of all the questions.
384
Then your supervisor will collect all the question papers and answer sheets.

Contexto e Fundo das Conversações
O vídeo apresenta trechos reais de um teste de listening C2 Proficiency (CPE), com diálogos que refletem situações do cotidiano. No primeiro extracto, uma mulher fala sobre um curso de manutenção de carros para mulheres, compartilhando sua experiência de ganhar independência e evitar ser "enganada" em oficinas. No segundo, um atendente de serviço ao cliente comenta sobre os tipos de chamadas que recebe, mostrando como lidar com situações humorísticas e desafiadoras. Esses contextos são perfeitos para praticar a compreensão de inglês falado e a pronúncia, especialmente se você está focando em prática de conversação em inglês.
Top 5 Frases para Comunicação Diária
- "It could save you a few quid too" – Significa "Isso também pode te poupar um pouco de dinheiro". Útil para falar de economia em situações práticas.
- "I didn't have a clue about cars" – Expressão coloquial que significa "Eu não sabia nada de carros". Ideal para admitir ignorância de forma natural.
- "They can't rip me off now either" – "Eles não podem me enganar agora também". Perfeita para falar de situações em que você se sente mais seguro(a) contra golpes.
- "It's a long shot, but give it a whirl" – "É uma chance remota, mas tente". Útil para incentivar alguém a tentar algo mesmo que a probabilidade seja baixa.
- "Wait until they've got a grip" – "Espere até que eles se acalmem". Bom para orientar como lidar com pessoas ansiosas ou confusas.
Guia Passo a Passo para Shadowing
O shadowing é uma técnica eficaz para melhorar a pronúncia e a fluência. Aqui está como aplicá-la nesse vídeo: 1. Ouça o extracto uma vez para entender o contexto. 2. Repita cada frase imediatamente após o falante, tentando copiar a entonação e o ritmo. 3. Use um shadowing site para pausar e repetir trechos difíceis, como as expressões coloquiais. 4. Grave sua voz e compare com o original para ajustar erros. 5. Pratique diariamente por 10 minutos – isso ajuda a internalizar a estrutura da língua. Essa método, conhecida como shadow speak, é ótima para quem quer sair da teoria e colocar a conversação em prática. Lembre: o objetivo é se sentir confortável com o inglês falado, não ser perfeito(a) de imediato!
Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| Frases condicionais if + oração, will/would + verbo — uma condição e seu resultado | if everyone did it, stocks would be · if her entry won, I would receive · If I went to a lawyer, would I |
| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | you've answered · has not seen · I've always felt |
| Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem faz | was invented · was lowered · was trained |
| Orações relativas who / which + oração — informação extra sobre uma pessoa ou coisa | people who say · people who carry · Roatan, which is |
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
