1
You will hear a telephone conversation between a woman who is looking for a job
2
and a man from a company that organizes cycling holidays.
3
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 6.
4
You will see that there is an example that has been done for you.
5
On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.
6
Hello, Pembroke Cycling Holidays.
7
Bob speaking.
8
Oh, hello.
9
I've seen your advert for people to lead cycle trips.
10
Are you the right person to speak to?
11
Yes, I am.
12
Could I have your name, please?
13
It's Margaret Smith.
14
The woman's surname is Smith,
15
so Smith has been written in the space.
16
Now we shall begin.
17
You should answer the questions as you listen,
18
because you will not hear the recording a second time.
19
Listen carefully and answer questions one to six.
20
Hello, Pembroke Cycling Holidays.
21
Bob speaking.
22
Oh, hello.
23
I've seen your advert for people to lead cycle trips.
24
Are you the right person to speak to?
25
Yes, I am.
26
Could I have your name, please?
27
It's Margaret Smith.
28
Are you looking for a permanent job, Margaret?
29
No, temporary.
30
I've got a permanent job starting in a few months' time,
31
and I want to do something else until then.
32
What work do you do?
33
This will probably sound crazy.
34
I used to be a lawyer,
35
and then I made a complete career change,
36
and I'm going to be a doctor.
37
I've just finished my training.
38
Right.
39
And have you had any experience of leading cycle trips?
40
Yes, I've led several bike tours in Africa.
41
The trip to India that I had arranged to lead next month has now been cancelled,
42
so when I saw you were advertising for tour leaders,
43
I decided to apply.
44
OK.
45
Now, we normally have two or three leaders on a trip,
46
depending on the size of the group.
47
Some tours are for very experienced cyclists,
48
but we've got a tour coming up soon in Spain,
49
is proving so popular we need an additional leader.
50
It's a cycling holiday for families.
51
Would that suit you?
52
It certainly would.
53
I enjoy working with children,
54
and I probably need some more experience before I go on a really challenging trip.
55
That tour includes several teenagers.
56
Have you worked with that age group before?
57
Yes.
58
I'm a volunteer worker in a youth club where I help people to improve their cycling skills.
59
Before that, I helped out in a cycling club where I taught beginners.
60
Well, that's great.
61
Now, the trip I mentioned is just for a fortnight,
62
but there might be the possibility of leading other tours after that.
63
Would that fit in with your plans?
64
That'd be fine.
65
I'll be free for five months.
66
My job is due to start on October 2nd,
67
and I'm available from May the 1st until late September.
68
Good.
69
Now, is there anything I need to know about the food you eat?
70
We usually have one or two people in the group who don't eat meat or have some sort of food allergy,
71
so we're always very careful about that.
72
Yes, I'm allergic to cheese.
73
Would that be a problem?
74
No. As long as we have enough notice,
75
we can deal with that.
76
That's great.
77
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
78
you have some time to look at questions 7 to 10.
79
Now listen and answer questions 7 to 10.
80
It sounds really interesting.
81
Would you like me to fill in an application form?
82
Yes, please.
83
Where should I post it to?
84
Could you send it to 27RButhnotplace, A-R-B-U-T-H-N-O-T, Place, Dumfries?
85
And what's the postcode, please?
86
DG74PH.
87
Was that P-Pupa or B-Bravo?
88
P-Pupa.
89
Got that.
90
If you could return the application form by Friday this week,
91
we can interview you on Tuesday next week.
92
Say, half past two?
93
Would that be possible for you?
94
Yes, it's fine.
95
You're quite a long way from where I live,
96
so I'll drive over on Monday.
97
Should I bring anything to the interview?
98
We'll have your application form,
99
of course, but we'll need to see any certificates you've got that are relevant in cycling,
100
first aid or whatever.
101
Okay.
102
And at the interview, we'd like to find out about your experience of being a tour guide.
103
So, could you prepare a 10-minute talk about that, please?
104
You don't need slides or any complicated equipment, just some notes.
105
Right.
106
I'll start thinking about that straight away.
107
Good.
108
Well, we'll look forward to receiving your application form and we'll contact you to confirm the interview.
109
Thanks very much.
110
Thank you, Margaret.
111
Goodbye.
112
Bye.
113
That is the end of Section 1.
114
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
115
Thank you.

  2. Ouça uma vez: Escute o diálogo sem interrupções, tentando captar a entonação e pronúncia.
  3. Pause e repita: Após ouvir uma frase ou expressão, pause o vídeo e repita em voz alta, focando na entonação e ritmo. Isso ajudará a melhorar a pronúncia em inglês.

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.
