Практика Shadowing: CELPIP Speaking Practice | Comparing and Persuading - Изучайте разговорный английский по видео

Take a look at these two vehicles.

This one is called a van.

And that one is called an SUV.

SUV, that stands for Sports Utility Vehicle.

SUV, okay?

Now when you take the CELPIP exam, you're going to see a question

where you have to compare two things and then persuade someone that your choice is the best.

Okay, so in this lesson I'm going to teach you how to answer this question.

Now I'm making a lot of videos on cellpips so if you want more lessons like this, make sure you hit that subscribe button right down there.

Okay, so this question is task 5 on the CELPIP exam.

And it's about comparing and persuading.

Now, when you answer this question, you need to use lots of comparison words.

Okay, like this: "EASIER" or "HARDER" "Older /Newer" "FASTER /SLOWER" "BETTER /WORSE" "LIGHTER /DARKER" "MORE EXPENSIVE" "LESS EXPENSIVE" Okay,

the person who's going to be listening to your exam and giving you your marks,

they're going to be listening specifically for words like this: Okay,

so you need to know how to use comparison words when you answer this question.

Now this is how we persuade people in English.

Okay?

We use phrases like this: "I think this one would be a better choice for our family because..." Or,

the reason we should get this one is because...

Or, if we get this one, we will...

Okay, let's say the question is asking you to compare two apartments.

Okay?

And you need to decide which one is better for your family.

It was a very loud airplane.

flying over my house.

Can you hear it in here?

It's distracting me.

Okay, so let's say you need to Pick an apartment.

Okay?

You could say: "If we get this apartment,

we will have more space to host guests." or something like that, okay?

So these are good ways to convince someone that your choice is the best.

So maybe you can memorize some of these phrases, okay?

But there are other ways to say this as well.

Okay, so let's take a look at this question.

So you're going to see two things.

In this case, it's two vehicles.

And it's going to give some Ok,

so the question here is: Your family is looking for a new vehicle.

You found two options.

Using the pictures and information below, choose the option that you prefer.

In the next section, you will need to persuade your family that your choice is the better choice.

If you do not choose an option, the computer will choose one for you.

Ok.

these two pictures and you have 60 seconds to choose the option that you like best.

And then you need to click on which one you want.

If you don't click on one, the computer is going to decide for you.

You don't want that.

You want to look at these things and see which one you like better.

And choose that one.

Okay?

So let's take a look at these.

Okay, so the SUV is 42 ,000.

The van is 34 ,000.

The SUV gets 11 liters per 100 kilometers.

fuel economy.

Okay, the fuel economy on the van is a little bit better.

It's 8 liters per 100 kilometers.

The SUV seats 7, the van seats 8, the SUV has four -wheel drive,

but the van is only two -wheel drive.

Okay now you don't need to do any speaking here.

You don't need to do any comparing or anything.

Just look at them and and pick which one you like better, or which one you think will be easier to talk about.

Okay, so let's say we choose the van.

Okay, so we click on the van.

Then Suddenly, another picture is going to pop up.

Okay, so We chose the van that's here then it's going to say your family is wants to buy a station wagon.

Okay, that style of vehicle is called a station wagon.

Okay, so your family wants to buy a station wagon.

You need to convince them that your choice is better.

Okay, so that's the question.

Now you're going to have 60 seconds to

to compare these and to make some notes and think about what you want to say.

Okay, so you have the van, 34 ,000, 28 ,000.

Okay, so you have all this information.

Now, what are you going to put in your notes when you take notes?

Okay, for this question you have 60 seconds to take notes.

In a lot of the other questions on the speaking part, you only have 30 seconds.

So you should take a few notes so that when you're speaking, If you forget what to say,

you can look at your notes and it'll remind you of the next thing you want to talk about.

Okay, so try to make...

try to have like three or four...

things why your choice is better than their choice.

Okay, so you want the van instead of the station wagon.

Okay, so, hmm, I'm going to think, well, the van is bigger,

which would be better for going on road trips, right?

Because it's a little bit, it's more comfortable.

There's more room inside to stretch out and it's also got more luggage space.

Because when you go on a road trip with your family, you need a lot of space, right?

Okay, so I'm just going to write bigger, road trips.

Then I'm going to think of another reason.

Hmm...

More seats.

Thank you.

There's another airplane flying over my house.

There's so many airplanes today.

I don't know why they're all flying over my house today.

I live near the airport, but usually it's not this bad.

100

Those are pretty loud.

101

Okay, so my next my next note is going to be more seats.

102

Because, Then we can take our friends with us, maybe on road trips or anywhere.

103

We can have our family and our friends.

104

Okay, then my third reason is going to be, hmm, The price and the fuel economy are not much different.

105

Okay?

106

Maybe six or seven thousand dollars difference in price.

107

One liter difference in fuel economy.

108

Okay, so that's not much difference.

109

Okay, so then you need to actually speak after your preparation.

110

It's going to say start speaking now.

111

to pause this video and try to take some notes or you can use my notes if you want,

112

and then speak for 60 seconds to get some practice.

113

Now, it might be a little bit embarrassing for you to speak out loud, You might just think about it in your head,

114

but I think it's a good practice for you to speak out loud, because then you will be more...

115

comfortable, when you actually take the test.

116

Okay, so you might be in your house right now and your family is around you and you might be embarrassed.

117

You don't want your family to hear you speaking.

118

Okay, but when you take the CELPIP exam, You're going to be in a big room with other people.

119

Okay, so you can hear those other people talking, and they can hear you talking they're probably not listening because they're wearing,

120

you're going to be wearing like a headset with a microphone.

121

Okay, so everyone is busy looking at their own exam.

122

So nobody's going to be listening to you but it might be distracting.

123

Okay, so it's good to practice speaking out loud at home and that way I think you'll be more prepared

124

on the exam.

125

Okay so try your best and then when you're When you're ready to hear my answer,

126

then press the play button because I'm going to give you my answer right now.

127

Okay, so I have my stopwatch here.

128

And I'm going to start right now.

129

Hey guys, I know you really want to buy the station wagon, and I think that would be a good choice.

130

But I think the van would be an even better choice because it's a little bit bigger.

131

Which means it'll be much better for going on road trips.

132

I want to go on a lot of road trips in the next few years.

133

much more comfortable.

134

Also, having the extra two seats in the van would mean that we could take our friends

135

on our road trips as well.

136

Or if we're just driving around the city we can take a lot of people in the van.

137

Now, even though the station wagon is a little bit better in fuel economy, it's really not that big of a difference.

138

And also it's a little bit cheaper, but that's okay because I have a good job.

139

So, all in all, I think the van would be a better choice.

140

Done.

141

Okay, that was a minute.

142

I was a little bit rushed at the end.

143

But that's okay because I kept talking

144

from the first second all the way to the last second okay

145

so the number one mistake people make is they don't speak enough so remember try to keep talking without too many

146

pauses in your speech.

147

Okay, so the first thing you might have noticed is that I was talking to a person Okay, so that's good.

148

That's how you should handle this question.

149

Just make someone up.

150

If it's one person, then make up a name like, "Hey John, I would recommend this or something like that.

151

But if you're talking to a group of people like your family or friends, then you can say, "Hey guys, I know you want to do this,

152

but I think we should do

153

this okay so talk to a person now another thing you may have noticed is

154

that i didn't say any numbers i didn't say the station wagon has six seats

155

and the van has eight seats okay i didn't just list the numbers i used words okay

156

so you need to use words like cheaper, more expensive, more or less space,

157

better or worse fuel economy.

158

Okay, if you use words like this, you're going to get really good marks.

159

Okay, now the next tip is that you should acknowledge the advantages of the other choice.

160

Okay, look at this.

161

The station wagon is actually cheaper.

162

Okay, you're trying to say that the van is a better choice, but the station wagon is cheaper, it has better fuel economy, okay?

163

So those are sort of negative things.

164

So how are you going to handle that?

165

How should you say that?

166

You should acknowledge it, and this is how you acknowledge the advantages of the other choice.

167

You say, "Even though the station wagon is cheaper, The van is a better option because...

168

it's more comfortable or whatever you want to say.

169

Or you could say, even though the station wagon has better fuel economy The van is a better option because...

170

blah blah blah whatever you want to say okay so this is a great way to talk about the things

171

with the other choice that may be better.

172

And there's going to be those on the test, okay?

173

So, maybe you should memorize a sentence like this: Even though.. blah blah blah blah the is a better option because...

174

okay, so try to remember this sentence when you take your exam.

175

Okay, so the next thing you need to do is to show appreciation.

176

I mean, you don't need to do this, but it's nice.

177

When you're trying to convince someone of something.

178

Okay, like when I started speaking,

179

I said, "Hey guys, I know you really want to buy the station wagon." And that would be a good choice.

180

Okay, so I'm showing appreciation for their choice before I tell them my choice.

181

Okay?

182

So you can say, hey guys, I appreciate your suggestion, but I think we should...

183

by the van because...

184

okay?

185

So that's also good.

186

Now, let's take a look at another example.

187

Do you want to or are you bored yet?

188

You should probably get as much practice as you can.

189

So let's take a look at another question.

190

Okay, so in this question, we're given two hotels.

191

Hmm, and we need to take a look at all this information.

192

Now the question is: is going to be: "You and your friends are going on a holiday."

193

You are looking for hotels and you found two suitable options.

194

Using the pictures and information below, choose the option that you prefer.

195

In the next section, you will need to persuade your friends that your choice is a better choice.

196

If you do not choose the option, the computer will choose one for you.

197

Okay, so remember, you need to choose an option.

198

So maybe wait like 45 or 50 seconds and then make your selection.

199

Okay, so you're going to to look at them.

200

Now remember you're not speaking at all here.

201

You're not taking notes at all.

202

You're just looking at each option and you're going to Pick the one that you like better.

203

Okay, so this one is downtown, this one is near the beach.

204

Okay, so already I know I'm going to like this one because I like beaches.

205

Okay?

206

This one is a bit cheaper as well.

207

It doesn't have a swimming pool.

208

That one has a swimming pool, but this one is near the beach, so it doesn't matter.

209

That one has a free breakfast.

210

This one has free drinks.

211

Which one will be easier for me to talk about?

212

Well...

213

I think this one is going to be easier for me.

214

So I'm going to click on this one and then suddenly there's a different picture there.

215

Okay, so here's my selection and the question is going to be: your friends are recommending a guest house in the mountains.

216

Convince them that your choice is better.

217

Okay, so they're recommending a guest house in the mountains.

218

It costs $100 a night.

219

It has a hot tub and it has free meals.

220

- Wow, okay, so how am I going to convince them that my choice is better?

221

Okay, so here are the notes I'm going to take.

222

Okay.

223

the location is a little bit better.

224

Now remember, I'm just writing very short notes because I only have one minute to prepare.

225

That's not very much.

226

Okay, so I'm going to say better location.

227

Well, nicer rooms.

228

Even though the guest house is cheaper, I think the hotel will have better rooms.

229

So nicer rooms.

230

Drinks are a better value.

231

than the free meals because we're on holiday We want to be drinking lots of milkshakes,

232

maybe some champagne or whatever we want, okay?

233

So those are my notes.

234

Now you need to speak for 60 seconds.

235

Okay?

236

So I want you to pause this video

237

and I want you to try again to speak for 60 seconds and see what you say.

238

Then after that you can press play.

239

And here, my answer to this question.

240

Okay?

241

So here is my answer to the question.

242

Are you ready?

243

Set Go.

244

Hey guys, I know you found a great guest house in the mountains and I think that would be a good option.

245

It's cheaper, it has a hot tub, it has free meals, but I think The one near the beach

246

is actually going to be a much better place for us because it's going to have a much better environment.

247

We're on holiday.

248

We want to feel like we're on holiday.

249

So the warm weather, the palm trees, the beach, the ocean, it's going to give us a better feeling like we're on holiday.

250

Now even though the guesthouse is a lot cheaper.

251

The rooms in the hotel are going to be much nicer.

252

Bigger bathrooms, bigger TVs, that kind of thing.

253

And also, I mean, even though the guesthouse has free meals, I think we're going to enjoy the free drinks much more.

254

We want to be drinking lots of milkshakes, champagne, and everything.

255

So this is a better Choice.

256

Okay, exactly a minute.

257

Again, I was a little bit rushed at the end.

258

Maybe I should have planned it out a little bit better.

259

But you know what?

260

If you don't answer a question very good or you don't feel very confident about it, just forget about it and move on to the next question.

261

Because if you take the negative feelings and you're worried about that one, then you're going to do even worse on the next one.

262

Okay, so even if you do bad on a question, just forget about it.

263

and move on.

264

Okay, so that was my answer.

265

Now, here are the tips that I want to give you, okay, when you answer this question.

266

Talk to a person or a group of people.

267

"Hey John, I think we should do this" or "Hey guys,

268

I think..." Okay, show appreciation for the other person's selection.

269

Okay, with the guest house I said, "Hey, I know you guys have found a great guest house.

270

I think that's a good option." But...

271

I think this one is a better option.

272

Okay, so show appreciation.

273

Use lots of comparison words.

274

Cheaper, more expensive, better, worse bigger rooms, smaller rooms, okay?

275

Acknowledge the advantages of the other rooms.

276

option, okay?

277

Even though the guest house is half the price of the hotel,

278

the hotel will be better because It has nicer rooms, bigger beds, whatever else you want to say.

279

Okay, so those are my tips for how to answer task 5 on the CELFIP exam.

280

Now let's do some homework, okay?

281

I want you to compare V's to.

282

Okay?

283

So you're going to speak for 60 seconds and you're going to write your notes down in the comments, what you said, because I can't hear you.

284

I can read what you write.

285

Okay, so the first one is a cruise.

286

That costs $2 ,000.

287

free meals, and it's eight nights.

288

And this one is a resort.

289

It's $2 ,800.

290

It's all inclusive, which means free meals and free drinks.

291

and it's seven nights.

292

Okay, so I want you to compare these two options and persuade me why your option is the better choice.

293

Let me know down there in the comments, and I'll see you over in the next episode of Mad English TV.

294

Take care.

295

you

Shadowing English: CELPIP Speaking Task 1 Sample Answer

IELTS PrepUniversity Students+2

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.
