1
You'll hear two students, Bella and Tom, discussing an article they've read about a woman astronaut.
2
For questions 15 to 20, choose the answer, A, B, C or D, which fits best according to what you hear.
3
You now have one minute to look at part three.
4
Pause the recording for one minute.
5
You'll need to play the recording twice.
6
That was a really interesting article the tutor recommended about Eleanor Choa, wasn't it, Bella?
7
It certainly was, Tom.
8
I used to dream of going into space when I was a kid,
9
though I know now I wouldn't be the right kind of person for the job.
10
But surely they need all sorts of different types of people.
11
I'm not sure about that.
12
I'd get too panicky if there were problems, I think.
13
Anyway, I found it particularly interesting to read about a space woman.
14
There aren't too many of those around.
15
You're right there.
16
Anyway, I'm sure they'd be just as able as men to cope with all the challenges of the job.
17
The article certainly suggests that Ellen was something special.
18
The way she defied all the odds in her determination to do what she'd wanted to do ever since she was small.
19
What I liked best were the sections which quoted her.
20
I thought she was amazingly good at conveying what it was like to go into space.
21
True.
22
And she's also obviously a very talented scientist.
23
Yes, she did amazing work.
24
And I think she sounds as if she must have been a wonderful colleague for the others in her team.
25
Absolutely, Bella.
26
I also found the article interesting in what it said about the requirements for becoming an astronaut
27
I knew you'd have to have done loads of flight hours as an ordinary aircraft pilot,
28
of course And I suppose it's not that surprising they want people who are good at sport
29
And who aren't either too small or too tall
30
Well, I was surprised, Tom, that being shorter than the average was not acceptable I wouldn't have expected that to be an issue.
31
But I never imagined that you needed to have a postgraduate degree.
32
I don't think I even realised you had to be a graduate.
33
Me neither.
34
I never imagined that.
35
Anyway, she does have an interesting life, doesn't she?
36
Yes, Tom, I know.
37
Imagine walking in space and having to work inside and outside the capsule when you're weightless.
38
Yes, that must be extraordinary.
39
For me, I think the most interesting bit would be having to deal with all the little unexpected problems that arise
40
Having to sort things out within your little team
41
That must be amazing
42
Yes, it must
43
But I was particularly intrigued by her account of the role she sometimes has
44
As one of the people on Earth who are in control of the mission
45
You know, when she helps them communicate with other astronauts in space I thought that sounded really fascinating.
46
Being the one person present on the ground who really understands what life is like for the space crew.
47
She must be able to make things go much more smoothly.
48
Anyway, all in all, I thought it was a brilliant article.
49
Yes, it was.
50
Though I thought it was a pity
51
it didn't tell us as much as it might have done about the less pleasant sides of being in space.
52
I can't believe that it's always straightforward,
53
that all they do is admire the views and carry out lots of groundbreaking scientific research.
54
There must be some low points, even if it's only being irritated by some annoying habit of a fellow crew member,
55
or getting fed up with the same old food.
56
Well, we could always try to do a bit more research into that sort of area, if you like, Tom.
57
I wondered even if Eleanor Choa's experiences might make a topic for that science coursework we've got to do next term.
58
Or, you know, we could see what we could learn about everyone who's gone into space, from Yuri Gagarin to the present day.
59
Well, I'm not sure about that.
60
I was quite keen to do something on the funding of space research.
61
Anyway, I suppose we could bear it in mind.
62
But what I do fancy doing is going to a series of lectures I've seen advertised on astronauts
63
and how they're portrayed in the cinema and in books.
64
Wow, that sounds brilliant.
65
Do you mind if I come along too?
66
Of course not, Bella.
67
It'd be good to do it together.
68
Cool.
69
That was a really interesting article the tutor recommended about Ellen Ochoa, wasn't it, Bella?
70
It certainly was, Tom.
71

72

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.
