Listening test instructions.

The listening test is about 50 minutes.

There are six parts in listening test.

You will have about six minutes to listen to each passage and answer the questions.

The passage will be played once.

Hey, you look concerned.

What's on your mind?

The final exam.

I'm not fully prepared yet.

Well, don't worry too much.

You still have three days.

Yeah, but three days will fly past in a wink.

Well, you still have time to cram things in your brain anyway.

Question 1 Why's the man looked worried?

You will hear a conversation in three sections.

You will hear each section only once.

After each section, you will hear two or three questions.

You will hear the questions only once.

Choose the best answer to each question.

Good afternoon, Alex.

How can I help you today?

Hi.

I need your help with an issue that came up.

It seems that the conference room scheduled for my team's presentation next week is double booked.

I just found out that the marketing team has reserved the room for the same time slot.

Oh, that's frustrating.

I'm sorry to hear about this.

Let me check the booking system to confirm the details.

Just a moment, please.

Yes, I see the overlap here.

Your team is booked for the 14th at 2 p.m., and the marketing team has also reserved it at the same time.

Exactly.

This presentation is really important.

It's for our quarterly review with senior management.

We've been preparing for weeks, and we really need the space to go through the slides and discuss key points with the team.

I completely understand, and of course, the marketing team's event is also significant.

It's a tricky situation.

Do you have any flexibility in the timing or location of your presentation?

Well, the time is critical, as it aligns with when most of our senior stakeholders are available.

I'd prefer not to move it earlier or later if possible.

Based on the dialogue, which team is less likely to adjust their schedule?

Why does the team leader consider the presentation time critical?

What does the administrator likely mean by calling it a tricky situation?

You will hear the second section of the conversation shortly.

Let's see if we can find an alternative solution.

I do see that there's another room available on the 14th at 2 p.m.

It's slightly smaller, but it should fit your team.

Would that be suitable?

Hmm.

I appreciate that.

But we've been using the larger conference room for our rehearsals, and the equipment there is already set up for a presentation location.

Moving to a smaller room would be a challenge.

I see.

That does make sense.

How about this?

What if we managed to secure the conference room at a different time on the 14th, perhaps moving it to 3.30 p.m after the marketing team's meeting?

That could work, but I'd need to check with the team first.

It's a tight window, and we would need to ensure that all the key people can still make it.

Understood.

I can also look into other rooms if we need additional space.

I'll reach out to you once I confirm the availability of the larger rooms at different times.

In the meantime, let's consider options to keep everyone informed.

Why does the administrator suggest 3.30 p.m as an alternative time?

What can be inferred about the team leader's attitude toward the proposed solutions?

How does the administrator maintain effective communication?

You will hear the third section of the conversation shortly.

Hi, Alex.

I've got good news.

I managed to secure the main conference room for 3.30 p.m on the 14th.

It's right after the marketing meeting, so there's enough time for the transition.

That's great to hear.

I'll let my team know about the time change, and I'll make sure the senior management team is updated as well.

Thank you for coordinating this.

No problem at all.

I'll also make sure the marketing team is informed of the change.

We want to keep everyone on the same page.

Thank you for handling this so efficiently.

I really appreciate the support. Of course.

If there's anything else you need or any last-minute adjustments, just let me know. Will do.

Thanks again.

What can be inferred about the marketing team's meetings?

Which of the following reflects the most critical task for the administrator?

you you

will hear a conversation followed by five questions listen to each question you will hear the question only once.

Choose the best answer to each question.

Good morning, Alex.

How are you feeling today?

Morning, coach.

I'm feeling a bit off today, actually.

My legs are sore from yesterday's practice.

I wasn't expecting such an intense session.

I hear you.

It was a tough one, but it's all about pushing through that discomfort.

It helps build strength in the long run.

How are your muscles holding up though?

They're sore, but nothing I can't handle.

I stretched before and after practice, so I think that helped a bit, but I'm not sure if I'm going to be 100% for the next session.

That's good to hear you stretched.

Listen, I know soreness can be tough, but it's a sign that your body is adapting.

100

If you need a lighter session today, we can adjust things.

101

How about we focus on technique and conditioning instead of a full-on drill?

102

That sounds like a good idea, actually.

103

I still want to work on my stamina, but I don't want to risk overdoing it.

104

Do you think I'll be ready for the match on Saturday if I take it a bit easy today?

105

Absolutely.

106

The match is still a few days away and it's important not to push yourself too hard today.

107

We can modify your workout and then see how you're feeling tomorrow.

108

A light recovery session will keep you sharp without draining your energy.

109

That makes sense.

110

I want to be at my best for the match, so I'd rather play it safe.

111

What do you have in mind for today's session?

112

How about we start with a few drills focused on your footwork and agility.

113

Then we'll do some light jogging to loosen up your legs.

114

After that, We can wrap up with some ball control exercises.

115

These won't put too much strain on your muscles, but they'll keep you sharp for Saturday.

116

I like that plan.

117

I've been working on my footwork a lot, so that'll be good for me.

118

And the ball control exercises should help me feel more confident with the ball during the match.

119

Exactly.

120

It's all about maintaining balance between recovery and preparation.

121

Now, do you feel like you've made progress in terms of your fitness over the past few weeks?

122

Yeah, I think so.

123

My stamina has definitely improved, but I still struggle a bit with speed when I'm feeling tired.

124

I'm working on that, though.

125

That's great to hear.

126

Speed and endurance are a constant work in progress.

127

Just keep pushing through.

128

And remember, consistency is key.

129

I'll keep an eye on your progress and adjust the workouts accordingly.

130

Thanks, Coach.

131

I appreciate that.

132

I'll do my best to keep improving.

133

I know you will, Alex.

134

You've got the right mindset.

135

Let's get started with today's session, and we'll take it from there.

136

Sounds good.

137

Let's do it.

138

Why does the coach suggest modifying Alex's workout for today?

139

What can be inferred about Alex's attitude toward his training?

140

What is most likely the reason the coach emphasizes consistency is key.

141

What is most likely the main reason Alex feels sore after training?

142

Why does the coach choose footwork and ball control for today's session?

143

You will hear a conversation followed by six questions.

144

Listen to each question.

145

You will hear the question only once.

146

Choose the best answer to each question.

147

Good afternoon, what can I help you with today?

148

Hi, I'm doing a project on ancient artifacts and I wanted to ask you a few questions.

149

I've read a lot but I'm still trying to understand how historians determine the authenticity of ancient artifacts.

150

That's a great question.

151

Historians use several methods to determine authenticity.

152

One of the most common techniques is carbon dating, which helps to estimate the age of organic materials.

153

But beyond that, we also look at the artifact's material, craftsmanship, and even the historical context.

154

It's like a puzzle where each piece of evidence gives us a clearer picture.

155

So when they find something, how do they know where it fits in history?

156

It really depends on the artifact.

157

Sometimes, the context is crucial.

158

For example, if an artifact is found in a well-known archaeological site, we can often place it within a certain time period,

159

based on the surrounding layers of soil and other items.

160

For example, if you find a pottery shard near a tomb, the tomb's design and materials can help you pinpoint the era.

161

That makes sense.

162

How about objects that don't fit neatly into any known time period?

163

Ah, that's where things get interesting.

164

When artifacts don't align with known history, we have to explore them more deeply.

165

Sometimes, they might represent an earlier or unknown civilization.

166

Or perhaps the artifact itself is from a culture that was thought to be isolated or undocumented.

167

In these cases, historians might cross-reference texts or use advanced technology, like 3D imaging or chemical analysis, to gather more clues.

168

Wow, it sounds like a lot of detective work.

169

Exactly.

170

Every artifact is a clue, and piecing those clues together requires patience, research, and sometimes a bit of luck.

171

But that's what makes history so fascinating.

172

It definitely makes me more excited about learning how ancient civilizations worked.

173

Thanks so much for the insights.

174

You're welcome.

175

I'm glad you're interested.

176

Keep exploring and you might even make a discovery of your own one day.

177

What can be inferred about the historian's perspective on artifacts?

178

What does the historian imply about artifacts that do not fit neatly into known history?

179

Which of the following can be inferred about the use of 3D imaging and chemical analysis?

180

What is the main challenge in determining the authenticity of an artifact?

181

What can be inferred about the student's attitude towards learning?

182

What is implied about the importance of craftsmanship in determining authenticity?

183

You will hear a news item once.

184

It is about 1.5 minutes long.

185

Then 5 questions will appear.

186

the best way to complete each statement from the drop-down menu.

187

In the heart of Vancouver, community members gathered over the weekend for a charity event

188

that brought together individuals from all walks of life in the spirit of giving.

189

Hosted at the historic Orpheum Theatre, the event aimed to raise funds for the city's homeless shelters, which have seen an increased demand in recent months.

190

The evening featured live performances from local artists, including musical acts and heartfelt poetry readings,

191

showcasing the incredible talent of Vancouver's artistic community.

192

Attendees enjoyed a silent auction where donations ranged from signed sports memorabilia to unique pieces of local artwork,

193

with all proceeds directed toward improving shelter facilities and services.

194

Community leaders and city officials attended the event, underscoring the importance of collective action in addressing urgent social issues.

195

The charity's organisers, a coalition of volunteers and non-profit groups,

196

reported that early estimates indicated over $150,000 was raised throughout the evening, surpassing their expectations.

197

The success of the event highlights both the generosity of Vancouverites and their shared commitment to helping those in need.

198

For many guests, the night served as a poignant reminder of the power of community support and compassion,

199

especially as temperatures drop in the coming winter months.

200

As the city continues to grapple with economic challenges, events like these are vital in fostering a culture of solidarity and resilience.

201

With this fundraiser, organisers hope to not only provide immediate relief,

202

but also build momentum for future initiatives aimed at long-term solutions for homelessness in Vancouver.

203

The event concluded with a moving speech by a local shelter manager who expressed heartfelt gratitude to the attendees,

204

reaffirming the collective impact of Vancouver's charitable spirit.

205

Thank you.

206

Thank you.

207

Thank you.

208

Thank you.

209

Thank you.

210

You will listen to a two-minute its video then eight questions appear choose the best way to answer each question

211

Hi everyone.

212

Thanks for coming together today.

213

As we've discussed before, I think it's time we organize a community event to raise awareness for local environmental issues.

214

Our neighborhood could really benefit from something like this.

215

What do you think?

216

I completely agree, Anna.

217

Environmental issues are becoming more pressing

218

and a community event could get people involved in ways that feel personal and connected to where we live.

219

We could focus on things like waste reduction, recycling, and even educating people about energy conservation.

220

There are small steps everyone can take to make a big difference.

221

Exactly, James.

222

I also think it would be great to showcase sustainable practices that are easy to adopt in our daily lives.

223

Maybe we could have workshops on composting or hosting a swap event where neighbors can exchange clothes, books, or other items to reduce waste.

224

It could be fun, educational, and interactive.

225

I love those ideas.

226

It could also help create a sense of community, bringing people together over a shared cause.

227

We could even partner with local environmental organizations to bring in experts who can lead discussions or demonstrations,

228

maybe even some outdoor activities like a park cleanup or tree planting.

229

What do you think?

230

That sounds perfect.

231

And we could make it a family-friendly event, so it's not just for adults but for kids as well.

232

Maybe even set up a little educational corner for children where they can learn about recycling, nature, and the importance of protecting the planet.

233

Great idea, James.

234

We could have a kids' art contest focused on environmental themes, or have them plant a small tree or flower in a communal space.

235

That way, they're not just learning, but actively participating.

236

It would be a memorable experience for them.

237

I'm really excited now.

238

We could also use social media to spread the word

239

and maybe even put up flyers around the building to get more people involved.

240

It's about building momentum and making everyone feel that they can contribute in some way, no matter how big or small.

241

I agree, Anna.

242

If we can generate enough interest, we could even make this a recurring event.

243

It doesn't have to be a one-time thing, it could be an ongoing initiative, like quarterly clean-up days or regular workshops on environmental topics.

244

That sounds like a great plan.

245

I think once we start, people will feel inspired to keep going.

246

And the more we involve the community, the more we'll be able to make a real impact.

247

Absolutely.

248

So, let's brainstorm some dates and begin planning the logistics.

249

We've got this.

250

Thank you.

251

Thank you.

252

Thank you.

253

Thank you.

254

Thank you.

255

Thank you.

256

You will hear a report once.

257

It is about 3 minutes long.

258

Then 6 questions will appear.

259

Choose the best way to answer each question from the drop-down menu.

260

Volunteerism embodies the spirit of community, compassion, and altruism.

261

It is the act of offering one's time, skills, and resources without monetary compensation,

262

driven by a desire to help others and contribute to society.

263

This selfless practice not only provides invaluable support to various causes, ranging from aiding the homeless and tutoring children,

264

to environmental conservation and animal rescue, but also fosters a sense of interconnectedness among people.

265

Through volunteerism, individuals develop empathy and a greater understanding of the challenges faced by different communities,

266

broadening their perspectives and encouraging more inclusive attitudes.

267

It is also a catalyst for personal growth, offering opportunities to learn new skills,

268

gain experiences, and build a strong network of relationships that can last a lifetime time.

269

Volunteering can be transformative, not only for the communities being served, but for the volunteers themselves,

270

as it can instill a deeper sense of purpose, improve mental health by reducing stress, and boost feelings of self-worth and fulfillment.

271

Furthermore, volunteerism plays a critical role in addressing societal issues that may not be met through traditional means alone.

272

The efforts of volunteers often fill crucial gaps in public service, leading to meaningful social change and enhanced quality of life.

273

At a time when the world faces pressing challenges such as poverty,

274

climate change, and inequality, volunteerism stands as a beacon of hope and a testament to the power of collective action.

275

It reminds us that even small acts of kindness

276

and service can create ripples of impact that extend far beyond what we can imagine

277

encouraging us to become active engaged citizens dedicated to making a difference in the world

278

Thank you.

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.
