The candidate number is 01413278.

The examiner is Ross.

Examiner number 443533.

Good afternoon.

My name is Ross.

Would you please tell me your full name?

Hello, my name is MG.

You can call me M.

Perfect.

In part one, I asked you some personal questions.

Let's talk about work and study.

Do you work or are you a student?

Currently, I'm working as a data scientist.

And how did you choose this field of work?

I always been passionate about this field.

Long ago when I was a teenager, so I started studying computer science,

getting into university, graduating from the computer science and engineering and after that I got into this job.

Perfect and what do you like most about your job?

This job is full of challenges and you have to be always at the tip of the technology,

learn a lot of new things and keep up with the tools and new emerging technologies.

So that is what I like about it.

So you don't get into a daily routines that is nothing new and you constantly learning.

And would you like to keep working in this field?

Yeah, as long as I can.

I'm trying to learn more and just staying in this job is very challenging

but of course I want to stay in this job.

Now let's talk about hobbies and free time.

What do you usually do in your free time?

I'm very active in my free time.

Normally do physical activities, go to gym

or I do go running outside most of the time

when it's summer but in winter I go to gym or go swimming pool.

But in winter also I'm very interested in snowboarding.

How important is it for you to have hobbies?

I think having hobbies, in my case sport is very important in your healthy lifestyle.

So that's why I like it a lot

and I think it's very necessary

if you want to stay healthy in your life as well as in being active

and have a very long journey in your job and keep doing that.

Do you prefer indoor or outdoor activities?

I do prefer going outdoor and do outdoor activities.

Running outside is one of the main things I do in summer.

But because in Canada, winter is very cold, you cannot do that through the year.

so I normally stay inside in winter but sometimes I go snowboarding when the temperature is not that harsh.

And do you like spend your free time with your friends or alone?

I like both of it, depends.

In some cases you need to be around your friends, have fun, parties like that.

But I enjoy having time on my own,

just spending with myself, just reading books, maybe watching movies alone.

That actually is one of my...

Okay, now let's talk about shopping.

Do you like shopping?

I'm not a fan of shopping but when it's necessary I have to go.

Okay and how often do you go shopping?

I try to avoid it as long as is possible but normally I go just maybe every couple of months,

not very often.

Okay, so do you prefer shopping in stores or online?

Both are good.

It depends on the what you want to shop.

If it's clothing, you want to try it on.

You go to the store, you find it, you need to see the texture,

the how fit they are, and then you pick it.

So when you

try to do online shopping in these cases you cannot see exactly

if it fits or even the color could be very different when you go to the store.

What do you usually shop for?

Most of my shoppings are clothing and not other things.

Okay so this is the end of the first part Now we move on to the second part.

I'm going to give you a topic and I'd like you to talk about it for up to two minutes.

Before you talk, you'll have one minute to think about what you're going to say.

And you can make notes if you wish.

Do you understand?

Sure.

Okay.

So here is the pen and the paper.

And you have to describe an important event in your life that had a significant impact on you.

Okay, thank you.

No problem.

and your one minute of preparation starts now.

You So

your one minute of preparation is over you can start speaking now all right

I think the most important event in my life was my marriage.

It had a very major impact in my life and happened 12 years ago at the university where I met my wife.

And I think it entirely changed my life, the way I was living,

the way I was having my routine every day.

So it was very positive, I guess.

In my case, everything happened.

It changed myself too.

So I grew into my marriage

and learned a lot of stuff during these past 12 years

and so I think that was very impactful in my life

because also she was very supportive in my job helped me to get through difficult times

and learn a lot so I think that was very important

and the other thing is that what you learn through this time when for myself this marriage

you become a different person so you learn how to live in a

you know life with another person because you're always with yourself alone

100

and you're a bachelor you're doing everything you want you don't have a limitations through the time

101

when you're at home and responsibilities you have everything changes so

102

that that has been all things I learned and I think all of it was very positive for myself.

103

Okay so this is the end of the second part please hand me back the pen and paper thank you.

104

So we've been talking about an important event in your life

105

that had a significant impact on you

106

and I'd now like to ask you some related questions how

107

do major life events such as moving to a new city

108

or changing jobs affect a person's routine um i can say it through my experience uh

109

so i recently did that i moved from another city to here

110

and it just changed everything you've been doing so you have a very

111

fix routine every day

112

when to wake up what to do you know the plan

113

of the day what you want what you can do

114

but uh these kind of changes uh make you make your

115

life more chaotic you don't know what comes next in a short time in very temporary uh

116

so that's what happened in my life until i we found our apartment our house

117

so where to live and again finding the past where how to go to the work

118

and all those things so it requires a lot of efforts to learn what to do

119

and bring it back to where it was in the past routine you have okay

120

so in your opinion is it easier to adopt to positive or negative life events?

121

It's good to be, it's good to be for you easier to adopt to positive things

122

but mostly negative things is easier to adjust with it and you stick with it because it's easier.

123

So I think.

124

In what way?

125

So you don't have to plan, for example, for your day, for your next week.

126

So that is negative things if you don't need to do it.

127

If you had it previously, this good routine that it was positive in your life,

128

that you were just getting better in your job and getting promotion, all those things, learning new things.

129

But negative thing is that just abandon all of that.

130

So I think it's easier to adopt the negative things, but it's better to do positive.

131

And that's what I try to do.

132

It's very difficult.

133

It requires a lot of effort.

134

Okay.

135

So do you think that people learn more from their success or their failure?

136

I think this is a very well-known quote that you learn more from your failures and defeats than your success.

137

And the reason is success happens very rarely in your life,

138

but failures happen a more if you don't stay on shore and just take the endeavors in front of you.

139

So every challenges you have you learn one thing new.

140

If you stay in your comfort zone you make no mistake

141

so you don't learn anything but

142

if you just get out of your comfort zone that's where you you come to the realm of unknowns

143

so you make mistakes you learn things you become better

144

and you gain a lot of experiences that you never known before

145

and now you this part of your knowledge

146

and your experience okay do you think people's attitudes toward significant life events change as they grow older?

147

I think so, yeah.

148

That is what is expected.

149

So the older you become, the wiser you become.

150

Because all of those experiences and events,

151

everyone has significant events and major changes in their life and that impact their personal life,

152

personality, and people learn from that.

153

Everyone tries to not repeat the same mistake they've been doing before or they have done it before.

154

But it's not very easy.

155

Some people are very successful in that, but some not, but that's what everyone trying to do.

156

Okay, so this is the end of the speaking test.

157

Now you can just sit back and relax.

158

Thank you.

159

No problem.

160

170

171

172

I also can't do it now for our generation.

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.
