Section 1.
2
You will hear a telephone conversation between a woman who wants to attend a cookery class
3
and an official at a tourist information centre.
4
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 6.
5
You will see that there is an example that has been done for you.
6
On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.
7
classes, one very popular one is at the food studio.
8
The first cooking class is at the food studio, so studio has been written in the space.
9
Now we shall begin.
10
You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time.
11
Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 6.
12
classes.
13
One very popular one is at the food studio.
14
OK.
15
They focus on seasonal products, and as well as teaching you how to cook them, they also show you how to choose them.
16
Right, that sounds good.
17
How big are the classes?
18
I'm not sure exactly, but they'll be quite small.
19
And could I get a private lesson there?
20
I think so.
21
Let me check.
22
Yes, they do offer those, though in fact most of the people who attend the classes find it's a nice way of getting to know one another.
23
I suppose it must be, yes.
24
And this company has a special deal for clients where they offer a discount of 20 %
25
if you return for a further class.
26
Okay, but you said there were several classes.
27
That's right.
28
Another one you might be interested in is Bonds Cookery School.
29
They're quite new.
30
They just opened six months ago, but I've heard good things about them.
31
They concentrate on teaching you to prepare healthy food, and they have quite a lot of specialist staff.
32
So, is that food for people on a diet and things like that?
33
I don't know if I'd be interested in that.
34
Well, I don't think they particularly focus on low -calorie diets or weight loss.
35
It's more to do with recipes that look at specific needs, like including ingredients that will help build up your bones and make them stronger, that sort of thing.
36
I see.
37
Well, I might be interested, I'm not sure.
38
Do they have a website I could check?
39
Yes, just key in the name of the school, it'll come up.
40
And if you want to know more about them, every Thursday evening they have a lecture at the school.
41
It's free and you don't need to book or anything, just turn up at 7 .30.
42
And that might give you an idea of whether you want to go to an actual class.
43
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 7 to 10.
44
Now listen and answer questions 7 to 10.
45
Okay, there's one more place you might be interested in.
46
That's got a rather strange name.
47
It's called the Arezza Centre.
48
That's spelled A -R -R -E -T -S -A.
49
OK.
50
They've got a very good reputation.
51
They do a bit of meat and fish cookery, but they mostly specialise in vegetarian dishes.
52
Right.
53
That's certainly an area I'd like to learn more about.
54
I've got lots of friends who don't eat meat.
55
In fact, I think I might have seen that school today.
56
Is it just by the market?
57
That's right.
58
So they don't have any problem getting their ingredients.
59
They're right next door.
60
And they also offer a special two -hour course in how to use a knife.
61
They cover all the different skills, buying them, sharpening, chopping techniques.
62
It gets booked up quickly, though, so you'd need to check it was available.
63
Right.
64
Well, thank you very much.
65
I'll go and check that out.
66
That is the end of Section 1.
67
You now have half a minute to check your answers.

Об этом уроке

Вы практикуете английский с "IELTS Listening Practice Section-1(Cookery Classes)" с помощью техники Shadowing — метода, разработанного для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков.

Слушайте каждое предложение, обращайте внимание на ударения и связывание звуков, затем повторяйте вслух уверенно. 15–30 минут ежедневной практики дадут заметные результаты.

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.
