Good day everyone, I am your IELTS tutor Jack and welcome back to another episode of the IELTS Plus English podcast.

It's the end of another winter, the weather is warming up, we're getting more blue sky,

it's starting to feel like we can go to the park and maybe have a picnic,

all those things that we do in spring. is weather.

Now you may or may not know, I have mentioned it in a podcast before I think, I really like the weather.

I'm really interested in the weather.

I was really interested from a very young age and my dream job was to be a meteorologist.

That's one of today's keywords, meteorologist, which means someone who studies the weather and the atmosphere in order to predict future weather.

And if you want this vocabulary and expressions, don't forget you can download it for free off jacks -english .com.

Now do remember, you have to go to the website and there's a free content section at the top.

That's what you need to click on.

There's the IELTS Plus podcast.

Everything is available there from episode one to today, which is episode 39.

So please make the most of that.

And yeah, so weather, super interested in it still.

I know I'm not a meteorologist, but I just still have that interest in, you know, typhoons, wind, rain,

heavy rain, floods, all these different things.

It's quite fascinating to me.

So, I guess let's get into our 39th topic.

Next episode is the last one of the season.

Can you believe it?

So let's do some part ones to warm me up.

What is the weather like in your country?

Well, I come from England and the weather in England can be quite dull.

I think a lot of people find it on the whole, quite dull.

But I think it's not as bad as people around the world think.

It's actually, there are a lot of sunny days.

You can go to the park and have a picnic and it does get quite hot in summer.

So on the whole, I think British weather is changeable.

Fickle, we could even say, but there are a lot of dull days.

- Good, okay, wow, I'm using two or three vocabulary already.

So check out the list.

Next question, do you experience extreme weather in your country?

Thank you.

We are starting to experience extreme weather more and more in the UK.

In the past, I don't feel like there was so many events.

There were sort of one -off events.

There was a hurricane and there were some floods and things like that and some droughts.

But nowadays it feels like every year there's some kind of big storm, some people die, you know, there are some bigger weather events.

Excellent, well, part two.

So today's part two is describe your favorite weather.

So two minutes on the clock starting now.

I'd like to tell you about sunny weather.

When I was young, I was a golfer.

I played a lot of golf.

So sunny weather, calm sunny days with a blue sky was a real blessing.

It made golf much easier and more enjoyable.

Outside of golf, I just loved sunny weather.

I loved going to the beach.

I loved having a picnic at the park.

I loved hiking in sunny weather.

There was such a number of activities I could do if it were sunny and clear.

Bots when it was windy

and rainy it was quite restrictive you know you couldn't really go outside

and there wasn't many indoor things to do so When I think back to my childhood in England,

right up until 21 years old, sunny weather was a real blessing and made me feel so good.

So let me tell you a little more about sunny days.

So in England, we don't really have any issues with pollution.

So when it's a sunny day, the The sky is very, very clear and it's a wonderful blue colour.

Now, it's quite a rare occasion to have that kind of day in England.

It's not a not every day kind of thing.

And but it's more likely in summer.

The thing that I always tell my students is those images you get of sort of every day raining

and windy in England.

is normally the winter or kind of early spring.

That's when we get that nasty weather.

For me personally, these days are so wonderful because they are quite rare.

So you're more familiar with rainy or windy, cloudy.

So when you get this bright day, You can do all the things you want to do.

Oh, wow.

I guess I really like this kind of weather because I had so much more to say.

But that was good.

That was fairly well structured.

I was quite happy with that.

Nothing I would change.

So we'll go straight on to part three.

Has the weather changed much in your country since you were young?

Thank you.

Well, it's a bit difficult for me to say because I haven't been in the UK much over the past 12 years,

but I will try my best.

When I was young, I feel like there weren't that many sunny days,

and particularly the summer wasn't that hot.

But the winters definitely got very cold.

I clearly remember as a child, We would normally get a few snowy days in winter, and it really did get cold.

We even had some white Christmases.

Nowadays, however, definitely those days are gone.

We seem to get very hot summers, sometimes really prolonged periods of very hot or sweltering weather.

And in the winter, it just doesn't get that cold.

Snow is very rare.

So, yeah, I think there have been some changes.

mainly related to temperature.

Excellent.

Part three, second question.

Do you think weather affects people's mood or behaviour?

I think it absolutely affects people's mood and behavior.

I think that when we have a prolonged period of cold weather, particularly overcast weather where we can't see the sun,

people start to feel a bit down.

It does have that effect.

Whereas a wonderful bright day like today, people just feel a bit more cheerful.

100

And especially when you wake up and it's quite nice and warm, it's not too cold in the morning.

101

I think people tend to feel a bit better.

102

Now for me personally, I'm definitely difficult things for me in England was sometimes in winter,

103

waking up every single day and it's

104

rainy and windy outside so that was a really hard thing to wake up to every day.

105

Good, okay, final question.

106

Why do people live in places with extreme weather?

107

This is a really tricky question.

108

I'm not sure.

109

I don't know really, because when I think about these places that come to my mind,

110

for example, North Russia, which is freezing cold,

111

you know, you look down towards these places that experience lots of...

112

strong winds, typhoons, hurricanes.

113

There's a lot of places that experience extreme weather.

114

And I think really, why do people live in places like that?

115

It's not, they don't really have a choice either.

116

they don't have the money to move somewhere more desirable, or that's where they were born and they grew up in, so that's what they're familiar with.

117

So I don't think people ever choose to do that.

118

I don't think there's some opportunity,

119

but we kind of have to deal with the hand that we're dealt for most of us.

120

So yeah, I think that's why they live in these places.

121

Excellent.

122

That was quite a tricky question actually, that last one.

123

Because honestly, I don't know.

124

So if you get those kind of questions in IELTS, you just have to speculate.

125

You just have to guess.

126

And you can be very honest with the examiner.

127

You can say, I don't really know to be honest.

128

But after that, you must speculate.

129

You must make some kind of guess why.

130

Good.

131

Okay.

132

Well, another topic that I really liked.

133

The final topic of the season, which will be next week, is urbanization.

134

So that's you.

135

Remember, this whole thing has been alphabetical order.

136

So we started with animals and we finished with urbanization, you.

137

There's no other topics after that.

138

But as I said, I may come back for a few bonus episodes.

139

So actually, yeah, if you have any requests for topics I haven't covered,

140

to do some bonus episodes for you.

141

So that's everything I have for you today.

Palavras e expressões para roubar (e usar!)

O diálogo traz termos que elevam a qualidade da fala, especialmente para testes como o IELTS. Confira alguns destaques:

Meteorologist: "Meteorologista" (pessoa que estuda o clima para prever previsões). Útil em tópicos de ciência ou conversas sobre tempo.
Changeable: "Mutável" (que muda frequentemente). Perfeito para descrever climas como o britânico: "O clima em Portugal é changeable no inverno".
Fickle: "Caprichoso" (com mudanças imprevisíveis). Uma palavra mais formal que deixa a fala mais sofisticada: "O tempo no litoral é fickle, nunca se sabe o que esperar".
One-off events: "Eventos pontuais" (que acontecem uma única vez). Útil para falar de fenômenos climáticos raros: "As chuvas fortes eram one-off events, mas agora são mais frequentes".

Intonação nos adjetivos: Palavras como "dull" (chato) e "fascinating" (fascinante) são ditas com ênfase no último sílaba. Repita após o tutor, observando como a voz sobe e desce para transmitir emoção.
Conectivos fluidos: Frases como "on the whole" (no geral) e "I guess" (acho que) são pronunciadas de forma rápida, com ligação entre as palavras. Isso ajuda a falar de forma mais natural, evitando pausas abruptas.
Shadowing site e YouTube: Use o vídeo para praticar shadowing em inglês: reproduza um trecho curto, pause e imite imediatamente, tentando igualar o ritmo e a entonação. Plataformas como o YouTube são excelentes para isso, pois permitem controlar a velocidade do áudio.

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.
