After I finished university, I took a job with a big high street chain.
9
I was an assistant manager.
10
Every week you would see the sales figures for your product
11
and then act on that by placing repeat orders or putting a new style in.
12
It was a good grounding.
13
However, most of the staff had been there years and I think I did make mistakes in my dealings with them.

I blush now to think of my time there.

Also, have you been going the extra mile to get things done or doing more than what is asked of you recently?
21
Now you'll hear the recording again.

Extract 2.
38
You overhear a woman telling a friend a story about a swan.
39
Now look at questions 3 and 4.
40
So what happened last weekend?
41
Well, we were taking our boat along the river when we passed a pair of swans with a nest nearby.
42
One swan just carried on feeding, but the other one, the male, I think, decided to come and investigate.
43
Oh, fantastic.
44
I've never seen a swan's nest close up.
45
I expect he was hungry.
46
Well, actually, it was immediately obvious from his body language that he had other things on his mind.
47
He was flapping his wings really hard and approaching at incredible speed.
48
I guess we'd gone too close to the nest.
49
I'd never have done that if I'd known what would happen.
50
Gosh, amazing!
51
I've never heard of swans behaving like that before.
52
So what did you do, Roe like mad?
53
Well, we got out onto the bank, but he followed us up and then stood between us and the boat for about an hour.
54
We just couldn't frighten him away.
55
No, I suppose not.
56
Still, I'm sure he wouldn't have hurt you.
57
Are you kidding?
58
You should have seen the way he moved.
59
Swans can be really aggressive at nesting times.
60
Hmm.
61
Now you'll hear the recording again.

Extract 3.
84
You hear part of an interview with Bruce Loder, a successful businessman who's talking about his early life.
85
Now look at questions 5 and 6.
86
The End Bruce, at school you discovered you had a natural talent for art.
87
Yes, I inherited my dad's gift for drawing.
88
I wanted to do representational art, paint portraits.
89
But every college I went to, and there were three who accepted me, all the college tutors said, forget representational art, get a single lens reflex 33mm camera,
90
hit the shutter, crash, there's your picture.
91
Not even Rembrandt could get that accuracy, so it's not worth it.
92
And you believed them?
93
I did.
94
That was my biggest mistake.
95
I haven't picked up a paintbrush since.
96
How did your father react when you told him you weren't going to art college.
97
His face was white with rage.
98
He said, right, that's it.
99
You could have made something of going to college.
100
You won't get another chance.
101
Now I've got a perfectly good job for you on the factory floor.
102
You start this week, take it or leave it.
103
I said, no, I'm going to start a business next.
104
He said, well, at your own expense then.
105
He refused to support you anymore?
106
That's it. And so...
107
Now you'll hear the recording again.

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.
