Now we go to Jane, who is going to tell us about what's happening in town this weekend.

Thanks, Andrew.

And now on to what's new.

And do we really need yet another sports shop in bradcaster

They cover all the major sports, including football, tennis and swimming.

110

That is the end of Section 2.

111

You now have half a minute to check your answers.

112

Thank you.

113

Now turn to Section 3.

114

Section 3.

115

Two overseas students called Spiros and Hiroko have just finished the first semester of their university course.

116

They are discussing with their English language teacher how they coped with the course.

117

First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 25.

118

Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 25.

119

Before we start, Spiros and Hiroko, thanks for coming in today to talk about your recent study experiences,

120

and congratulations to you both in doing so well in your first semester exams.

121

Thank you.

122

I'd like to discuss with you the value of the English

123

for Academic Purposes course you did here last year before starting your university course.

124

Spiros, if I could start with you, what parts of the program have now proved to be particularly valuable to you?

125

I think that having to do a seminar presentation really helped me.

126

For example, a couple of weeks ago in our marketing subject, when it was my turn to give a presentation, I felt quite confident.

127

Of course, I was still nervous, but because I had done one before, I knew what to expect.

128

Also, I know I was well prepared, and I had practiced my timing.

129

In fact, I think that in relation to some of the other people in my group, I did quite a good job, because my overall style was quite professional.

130

What about you, Hiroko?

131

Oh, that's interesting.

132

in my group i was really surprised by the way the

133

students did their presentations they just read their notes aloud can you believe

134

that they didn't worry about their presentation style

135

or keeping eye contact with their audience and i remember

136

that these things were really stressed to us in the course here

137

so how did you approach your presentation hiroko well to speak frankly I read my notes too.

138

At the time, it was a relief to do it this way, but actually, when I had finished, I didn't feel any real sense of satisfaction.

139

I didn't feel positive about the experience at all.

140

That's a pity.

141

You know, although I was pleased with my presentation, I am not so pleased with my actual performance right now in the tutorials.

142

During the whole semester, I've not said anything in our tutorial discussions.

143

Not a word.

144

Really, Spiros?

145

Why is that?

146

Do the other students talk too much?

147

It's partly that, but it's mostly because I have had no confidence to speak out.

148

Their style of speaking is so different.

149

It's not the style we were used to during the course.

150

They use so many colloquialisms.

151

They're not very polite, and sometimes there seems to be no order in their discussion.

152

Also, they are very familiar with each other, so because they know each other's habits, they can let each other into the discussion.

153

You're right, Spiros.

154

I have experienced that too.

155

Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 26 to 30.

156

Now listen and answer questions 26 to 30.

157

For most of this semester I've said absolutely nothing in tutorials,

158

but recently I've been trying to speak up more and I just jump in and I've noticed an interesting thing.

159

I've noticed that if they thought my point was interesting or new, then the next time they actually asked for my opinion,

160

and then it was much easier for me to be part of the discussion.

161

Oh, that's great, Hiroko.

162

I hope that happens for me next semester.

163

I'll have to work hard to find some interesting points.

164

What helped you to find these ideas?

165

I think that one thing that helped me with this was the reading.

166

i've had to do so much reading this semester just to help me make sense of the lectures

167

at first i couldn't understand what the lectures were talking about

168

so i had to turn to the books

169

and journals every night i read for hours using the lists of references

170

that were given and i made pages of notes at breakfast i read

171

and read my notes again this habit has helped me to follow the ideas in the lectures, and it's also given me some ideas to use in the tutorials.

172

But I did so much reading anyway.

173

I don't think there's any time left over for anything extra.

174

My reading speed is still quite slow, though I'm much better at dealing with vocabulary than I used to be.

175

What else do you think we could add to the course program to help with this reading problem.

176

Hmm, there's not really anything because it's my problem.

177

I remember we were given long articles to read.

178

We didn't like that, but now I realise

179

that reading those long articles was good preparation for the things I need to read now.

180

Also, in class, we regularly had speed reading tasks to do, and we kept a record of our reading speed,

181

so the teachers were encouraging us to work on that.

182

That's true, Spiros, but what we read could have been different.

183

Sometimes in the English class I felt frustrated

184

when I had to read articles about the environment or health or education because I wanted to concentrate on my own field,

185

but we didn't read anything about engineering.

186

So I think I wasted some time learning vocabulary I didn't need.

187

But surely the strategies you were taught for dealing with

188

that vocabulary were helpful yes

189

but psychologically speaking I would have felt much better working on

190

reading from my own field what do you think Spiros oh I agree

191

that would have helped my confidence too

192

and I would have been more motivated it was good though

193

that we could work on our own topics when we wrote the research assignments okay let's move on to writing now

194

That is the end of Section 3.

195

You now have half a minute to check your answers.

196

Now turn to section 4.

197

Section 4.

198

You will hear part of a lecture about a problem related to the behaviour of certain sea creatures.

199

First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.

200

Now listen carefully and answer questions 31 to 40.

201

Good afternoon, everyone.

202

Well, with some of you about to go out on fieldwork, it's timely that in this afternoon's session I'll be sharing some ideas about the reasons why groups of whales

203

and dolphins sometimes swim ashore from the sea right onto the beach and, most often, die in what are known as mass strandings.

204

Unfortunately, this type of event is a frequent occurrence in some of the locations that you'll be travelling to,

205

where sometimes the tide goes out suddenly, confusing the animals.

206

However, there are many other theories about the causes of mass strandings.

207

The first is that the behaviour is linked to parasites.

208

It's often found that stranded animals were infested with large numbers of parasites.

209

For instance, a type of worm is commonly found in the ears of dead whales.

210

Since marine animals rely heavily on their hearing to navigate, this type of infestation has the potential to be very harmful.

211

Another theory is related to toxins or poisons.

212

These have also been found to contribute to the death of many marine animals.

213

Many toxins, as I'm sure you're aware, originate from plants or animals.

214

The whale ingests these toxins in its normal feeding behaviour,

215

but whether these poisons directly or indirectly lead to stranding and death seems to depend upon the toxin involved. In 1988, for example,

216

14 humpback whales examined after stranding along the beaches of Cape

217

Cod were found to have been poisoned after eating tuna that contained saxitoxin, the same toxin that can be fatal in humans.

218

Alternatively, it has also been suggested that some animals strand accidentally by following their prey ashore in the confusion of the chase.

219

In 1995, David Thurston monitored pilot whales that beached after following squid ashore.

220

However, this idea does not seem to hold true for the majority of mass strandings

221

because examination of the animal's stomach contents reveal that most had not been feeding as they stranded.

222

There are also some new theories which link strandings to humans.

223

A growing concern is that loud noises in the ocean cause strandings.

224

Noises such as those caused by military exercises are of particular concern

225

and have been pinpointed as the cause of some strandings of late.

226

One of these, a mass stranding of whales in 2000 in the Bahamas, coincided closely with experiments using a new submarine detection system.

227

There were several factors that made this stranding stand out as different from previous strandings.

228

This led researchers to look for a new cause.

229

For one, All the stranded animals were healthy.

230

In addition, the animals were spread out along 38 kilometres of coast,

231

whereas it's more common for the animals to be found in a group when mass strandings occur.

232

A final theory is related to group behaviour and suggests

233

that sea mammals cannot distinguish between sick and healthy leaders and will follow sick leaders even to an inevitable death.

234

This is a particularly interesting theory, since the whales that are thought to be most social, the toothed whales, are the group that strand the most frequently.

235

The theory is also supported by evidence from a dolphin stranding in 1994.

236

Examination of the dead animals revealed that, apart from the leader, all the others had been healthy at the time of their death.

237

without one consistent theory however it is very hard for us

238

to do anything about this phenomenon except to assist animals where

239

and when we can stranding networks have been established around the world to aid in rescuing animals

240

and collecting samples from those

241

that could not be helped i recommend john connor's marine mammals assure as an excellent starting point

242

if you're interested in finding out more about these networks or establishing one yourself.

243

That is the end of Section 4.

244

You now have half a minute to check your answers.

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.
