You will hear a woman calling an animal park to inquire about a job.
2
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 5.
3
You will see that there is an example which has been done for you.

Pender's Animal Park, hello?

I'm ringing to ask whether you have any jobs available.

Ah.
9
What sort of work are you looking for?
10
Is that permanent or part-time or...?
11
Actually, I'm just looking for temporary work.
12
I'm a student.
13
Oh, right.
14
I'll just get a form and ask you a few questions.
15
The woman says that she wants temporary work, so temporary has been written in the space.
16
Now we shall begin.
17
You should answer the questions as you listen, because you will not hear the recording a second time.
18
Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.
19
Pinders Animal Park, hello.
20
Oh, hello.
21
I'm ringing to ask whether you have any jobs available.

Ah, what sort of work are you looking for?
23
Is that permanent or part-time or...?

Actually, I'm just looking for temporary work.
25
I'm a student.
26

27
I'll just get a form and ask you a few questions.
28
Then I'll pass your application on to our recruitment section.
29
Is that OK?
30
Fine, thank you.
31
So, starting with your name.
32
It's Jane Lamerton.
33
Is that L-A-M-M-E-R-T-O-N?
34
There's only one M in it.
35
Oh, right.
36
And your address?
37
It's 42 West Lane.
38
Right.
39
And is that in Exeter?
40
Yes.
41
OK.
42
And can you give me your mobile phone number?
43
07792 430 921.
44
Right.
45
Now, the next thing is, when are you available to start work?
46
I finish college on the 8th of June.
47
That's in three weeks' time.
48
but I can't start work till the 11th because I've got a hospital appointment on the 10th of June.
49
No problem.
50
Now, I need to ask you a few questions about the type of job that might be suitable.
51
Do you have any particular kind of work in mind?
52
It doesn't necessarily mean that you will get work in the field that you want, but I can record your preferences.
53
Well, I'd do anything, and I have worked as an assistant animal keeper before, when I was still at school,
54
but I'm studying at a catering college now, and I'd really like to get some experience as an assistant cook, if possible.
55
Right.
56
So that's your first choice.
57
Have you done that kind of job before?
58
No, but I've helped my aunt sometimes.
59
She runs a cafe in Exeter.
60
Hmm.
61
Would you say you've got any relevant skills, then?
62
Well, I'm used to using the kind of equipment you usually find in a kitchen.
63
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.
64
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
65
Okay, and I know you're still studying, but do you already have any qualifications related to that kind of work?
66
A hygiene qualification, for example?
67
I haven't, no, but I've got a certificate in food handling.
68
I did it before I decided to become a full-time student.
69
Fine, okay.
70
That means you wouldn't need any specific training if you did get the kind of work you wanted.
71
but you'd have to do a short course on first aid.
72
All our new employees do that.
73
It just takes half a day, and most people find it generally useful.
74
Oh, yes, I'm sure it is.
75
Well, that's about it, really.
76
Oh, just one last thing.
77
Can you give me the name of someone who would give you a reference, like a previous employer, or...?
78
Oh, yes.
79
You can put Dr Ruth Price.
80
Okay.
81
Is that one of your college lecturers?
82
She's my college tutor.
83
She's known me for over two years, and I'm sure she wouldn't mind.
84
In fact, she's given me a reference before.
85
Fine.
86
We'd probably contact her by phone.
87
Do you happen to know her number?
88
I've got it on my phone, yes.
89
It's 0208 685 1114.
90
That's a landline.
91
Good.
92
Well, as I say, I can't promise anything, but I'll pass your application on, and you should hear in a few days.
93
Is there anything else?
94
Just one thing.
95
I suffer from a particular type of colour blindness, and sometimes employers have to make special arrangements for that.
96
Okay, I'll make a note of that.
97
It won't be a...
98
...that you've made us aware of it.
99
You can provide us with more details if you're offered a job.
100
Okay.
101
Thanks very much.
102
Bye.
103
Bye.
104
That is the end of Section 1.
105
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
106
Thank you.
107
Thank you.
108
Thank you.
109
Thank you.

Guia Passo a Passo de Shadowing

O shadowing em inglês é uma técnica eficaz para aprimorar a pronúncia e a fluência na língua. Aqui está um guia prático para aplicar a técnica neste vídeo específico:

  1. Ouça atentamente: Assista ao vídeo e ouça a conversa sem legendas para se familiarizar com o tom e a entonação.
  2. Repita após ouvir: Utilize a técnica de shadowspeak, onde você repete imediatamente após ouvir cada frase. Isso ajuda a melhorar a pronúncia em inglês.
  3. Faça pausas: Pause o vídeo após frases importantes e tente reproduzi-las na íntegra, imitando a pronuncia e cadência do falante.
  4. Grave sua voz: Ao repetir as frases, grave-se e depois escute sua gravação. Compare sua pronúncia com a do vídeo e faça ajustes conforme necessário.
  5. Pratique regularmente: Quanto mais você praticar, mais fluente e confiante se tornará. Incorpore exercícios de prática de conversação em inglês em sua rotina diária.

Ao seguir essas etapas, você estará em um caminho claro para melhorar sua pronúncia em inglês e se familiarizar com interações profissionais. Não hesite em usar shadowing sites e recursos online para expandir ainda mais suas habilidades!

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.
