This is the Cambridge First Certificate in English listening test.

Test 1.
6
I'm going to give you the instructions for this test.
7
I'll introduce each part of the test and give you time to look at the questions.
8
At the start of each piece, you'll hear this sound.
9
You'll hear each piece twice.
10
Remember, while you're listening, write your answers on the question paper.
11
You'll have five minutes at the end of the test to copy your answers onto the separate answer sheet.
12
There will now be a pause.
13
Please ask any questions now because you must not speak during the test.
14
Now open your question paper and look at part one.
15
You'll hear people talking in eight different situations.
16
For questions one to eight, choose the best answer A, B or C.
17
1. You hear a restaurant manager talking about the cooks who work for him.
18
What does he say about them?
19
A. They dislike cleaning tasks.
20
B. They have a choice of jobs.
21
C. They help to decide the menu.
22
As restaurant manager, I feel responsible for the quality of the food we serve, so it's up to me to check the ingredients
23
that have been delivered overnight to make sure they are of sufficient quality and to produce a menu for the day.
24
The cooks arrive at about 10 a.m to prepare lunch and I'll take them through the menu.
25
Because lunch is concentrated over a short period of time, it can get very busy and very hot.
26
But unlike some kitchens, we tend to divide the jobs up according to who likes doing what,
27
and that includes cleaning pots and pans and clearing the place before dinner.

A. It's educational.
37
B. It's well organized.
38
C. It's enjoyable.
39
It's a factual book, a chronicle of the 20th century, and it's wonderful.
40
I mean, it's terribly bitty and it's not going to give you a lot of information, nor be good for schoolwork.
41
That's what's really nice about it.
42
Here is a reference book which it is fun to dip in and out of.
43
It's hardly going to help anyone write an essay and it avoids being geared to any school syllabus, unlike so much of what is published today.
44
But for anyone who likes little details, you know, you can look up your date of birth, for example, and see what else happened then.
45
It's a very good book.

59
Are next week's episodes as exciting?
60
Well, I can't give away the whole story, but I don't think you'll be disappointed.
61
I can tell you that Stephen's mother is forced to tell her husband the secret she's been hiding for years, which leads to more fireworks and a few tears,
62
and Jason refuses to accept Mariella's decision, so you're going to hear a lot more from him, and look out for some surprises there.

We get people to the taxis, that's the first priority, and to the trains.
74
We make sure they get on early and get comfortable seats.
75
These days, many passengers have a lot of luggage and they want assistance with it, so we provide a much needed service.
76
We even take people down to the underground, or to places in the surrounding streets.
77
But the majority of users are airline passengers with a lot of bags, and perhaps accompanied by elderly relatives, young children and so on.
78
Obviously, they can't manage everything on their own.

I exercise in the form of dance.

At one time I did aerobics because exercise is more interesting with music, but I've since moved on to line dancing.
93
It's less energetic, but I go three times a week.
94
I run my own business, work hard, and it's just a way to cut off rather than watch television.
95
It's also a challenge keeping up with the new steps.
96
I think young people sometimes take exercise too far, get over-concerned with how they look, when they'll never be able to keep it up at that sort of pace.
97
Whereas line dancing struck me as something I could sustain as part of my normal life.

Brilliant.
112
I've never tasted anything like it.
113
I wish now I'd tried this place sooner.
114
I mean, I've been walking past it for years.
115
Why didn't you?
116
Well, to be honest, I never thought I'd be able to afford it.
117
But it's actually quite reasonable.
118
Mind you, I think they could have tried a bit harder with the presentation.
119
I think if food looks good on the plate you automatically expect it to taste good.
120
Yours was okay, but I think they could have made more of an effort with mine.
121
Well, what did you think of that then?
122
Brilliant!

136
C. Composing music.
137
In practical terms, the place I'm in doesn't matter too much, as long as I have the necessary tools, you know, pencil and paper and of course my keyboard.
138
Once I'm started, I go over things again and again.
139
Must be very dull if anyone's listening.
140
I change a few notes here and there, but basically I tend to stick with an idea once I have it.
141
I guess home's the best place in a way, because there I'm relaxed enough to let my imagination flow.
142
And that's what you need to do in order to produce a good piece.

152
There've been three parties so far, and it's still the first week.
153
It's an incredibly noisy place, with doors banging and people laughing and shouting till the small hours.
154
Yeah, I suppose we'll have to get down to work soon
155
though I don't know how we'll be able to packed into that little space.
156
None of us is very tidy.

O Cenário: Aprendendo com Contextos Reais

O vídeo apresenta situações do dia a dia, como um gerente de restaurante falando sobre sua equipe de cozinha e uma mulher comentando um livro novo. Esses diálogos refletem conversas reais, perfeitos para praticar compreensão auditiva e fala em inglês. Ao mergulhar neles, você aprende a interpretar nuances e expressões usadas no cotidiano, o que é essencial para se comunicar de forma natural.

Trechos Úteis e Colocações para Memorizar

Domine essas combinações de palavras usadas nos diálogos para enriquecer seu vocabulário:

  • Divide the jobs up: Significa "dividir as tarefas". Exemplo: "No restaurante, eles dividem as tarefas de acordo com as preferências da equipe."
  • Dip in and out of: Expressão para "ler de forma intermitente". Exemplo: "Esse livro é perfeito para quem gosta de ler de forma intermitente, sem seguir uma ordem."
  • Geared to: Significa "adaptado a". Exemplo: "Muitos livros são adaptados a programas escolares, mas esse não."
  • Sufficient quality: "Qualidade suficiente". Exemplo: "O gerente verifica se os ingredientes têm qualidade suficiente."
  • Concentrated over a short period: "Concentrado em um curto período". Exemplo: "O almoço é concentrado em um curto período, então a cozinha fica muito movimentada."

Seu Desafio de Shadowing: Melhore Sua Pronúncia Agora!

O shadowing é uma técnica poderosa para melhorar a pronúncia em inglês e a fluência. Aqui está como praticar com o vídeo:

  1. Escute um trecho curto (2-3 frases) do diálogo, como a parte sobre o livro: "It's a factual book... what is published today."
  2. Repita imediatamente após o áudio, tentando imitar a entonação, o ritmo e a pronúncia exatos. Isso ajuda a treinar seu cérebro e sua boca a produzir sons naturais.
  3. Faça isso 3-5 vezes com o mesmo trecho. Use um shadowing site ou grave sua voz para comparar com o original.
  4. Avance para o próximo trecho quando se sentir confortável. Lembre: a prática diária é a chave!

Essa atividade não só melhora sua pronúncia, mas também ajuda a internalizar expressões coloquiais. Não se preocupe se não acertar de primeira: o objetivo é se divertir e aprender. Use o shadowing em inglês como uma ferramenta para se sentir mais confiante ao falar.

Se você quer mais prática, procure por recursos como o shadowspeak, que oferecem exercícios adaptados. Lembre: cada repetição bringing you closer to fluency!

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.
