Exercise 4.
5
You will hear people talking in 8 different situations.
6
For questions 1 to 8, choose the best answer A, B or C.
7
Question 1.
8
You hear a woman talking about making jewellery.
9
2003 was the year my passion for jewellery making began.
10
There was a fantastic art teacher at school who made earrings and bracelets out of copper and I thought, I want to do that one day too.
11
I found an evening class where I learned a lot of useful techniques for working with gold and silver.
12
I've never considered using the former for my own jewellery because it's outside my price range,
13
range but I can afford the latter and in fact I've made several things with it recently.

Question 2.
20
You hear two friends talking about postcards.
21
Here are those cards I bought for you in Oxford to add to your collection.
22
I hope you don't think they're too tatty.
23
They must be at least fifty years old.
24
Thanks.
25
The condition they're in doesn't bother me.
26
And actually, looking at the stamps, they're older than you say, which is brilliant because I haven't got many from the 1930s.
27
Oh, so you're looking for cards from a certain period?
28
Well, I collect all sorts, but I'm on the lookout for older ones that have text on the picture, like this one, which says,
29
Thinking of you in St Ives.

39
Question 3 you hear a radio talk about wooden objects.
40
I knew someone once who had an absolute passion for making things out of wood.
41
He spent hours and hours on his hobby.
42
Whatever the object was, he always took great pride in doing it well and making it unique by choosing a special wood.
43
He never chose the same kind twice.
44
He would make all sorts of things.
45
A new handle for a fork, with a pattern cut into it.
46
Enough models to fill several glass cases.
47
He even made an electric guitar which he painted designs on, something he didn't normally do.
48
One piece I remember well is a polar bear.
49
The way it was carved really captured the look of the animal walking heavily through the snow.

Question 4.
60
You hear a man talking about his hobby.
61
People think it's a bit odd
62
that I spend my weekends dressed up in anything from metal llama to old uniforms out in the open air.
63
But it's good fun.
64
The group that puts on these events was only formed about four months ago.
65
I joined in April and we've already performed five battles.
66
You learn a great deal about history because everything is researched properly, from the costumes to the actual battle tactics.
67
My girlfriend's not too pleased with me at the moment.
68
I'm going to have to miss her birthday because we're doing the Battle of Naseby.
69
That's not the reason she's mad at me though.
70
She wanted to come too, but I wouldn't let her.

81
You hear a girl talking about collecting beads.
82
This is Radio QB.
83
The phone lines are open and we want to hear about your hobbies.
84
And here's Eleanor from London.
85
What are you into, Eleanor?
86
Beads.
87
I've got several hundred in all shapes and sizes.
88
glass, metal, plastic ones they're from all over the world too I've got a handful of beautiful wooden ones from India
89
and some very unusual African ones carved out of bone.
90
A few of them I've made up into earrings and necklaces, but what I really like doing is collecting, especially coloured glass ones which I've got loads of.
91
And you say you've got several hundred.
92
How long has it taken you to get so many?
93
Not that long really.
94
I had lots of plastic ones when I was a kid, but I gave those away so they don't count.
95
I suppose I got serious about beads three years ago.
96
Since then, my family have given me tins of beads as presents, and I spend most of my pocket money on them too.

113
Question 6.
114
You hear part of a conversation in a radio play.
115
Well, I've rung them twice already, and they said I must take the matter up with you.
116
It's clearly your responsibility as I got the model kit from you in the first place.
117
It was sealed when I got it too.
118
No, I'm quite sure.
119
I buy a lot of your kits, you know.
120
Do you want me to contact Model Makers magazine and tell them about what's happened?
121
You have all my details, so I suggest you sort it out.

Question 7.
130
You hear an interview with a girl who collects pebbles.
131
I'm with Jenny Braintree, who paints the whole world in miniature on small stones she finds at the seaside.
132
Jenny, you took up this hobby four years ago.
133
Er, it was four months ago, in fact.
134
I was on a beach holiday with my parents and I collected loads of nice, smooth pebbles.
135
When I got home, I started to paint tiny images of beautiful places like the Swiss mountains and the Brazilian rainforest.
136
I've done 89 so far.
137
Amazing.
138
These pictures are no more than five centimetres across and yet they contain so much detail.
139
So what's the reason behind this, Jenny?
140
Do you earn anything from all your hard work?
141
Dad thinks I could sell them but I'm not interested in that and anyway they're too special to me.
142
My real aim is to get better at painting because that's what I want to do when I'm older.
143
And although I haven't been to the places I illustrate on the Pebbles, it can be really good fun finding out about them on the internet.

Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
