1
You will hear the chairman of the Highways Committee of Granford, speaking to members of the public about proposed changes to traffic and parking in the area.
2
First, You have some time to look at questions 11 to 13.
3
Now listen carefully.
4
and answer questions 11 to 13.
5
Good evening everyone.
6
My name's Phil Sutton and I'm Chairman of the Highways Committee.
7
We have called this meeting to inform members of the public about the new regulations for traffic
8
and parking we are proposing for Granford.
9
I'll start by summarising these changes before we open the meeting to questions.
10
So, why do we need to make these changes to traffic systems in Granford?
11
Well?
12
We're very aware that traffic is becoming an increasing problem.
13
It's been especially noticeable with the increase in heavy traffic while they've been building the new hospital.
14
but it's the overall rise in the volume of traffic of all kinds that's concerning us.
15
To date, there's not been any increase in traffic accidents, but that's not something we want to see happen, obviously.
16
We recently carried out a survey of local residents, and their responses were interesting.
17
People were very concerned about the lack of visibility on some roads due to cars parked along the sides of the roads.
18
"'We'd expected complaints about the congestion near the school,' when parents are dropping off their children or picking them up.
19
But this was on top of the list, and nor were noise and fumes from trucks and lorries, though they were mentioned by some people.
20
We think these new traffic regulations would make a lot of difference.
21
But we still have a long way to go.
22
We've managed to keep our proposals within budget, just so they can be covered by the Council.
23
But, of course, it's no good introducing new regulations
24
if we don't have a way of making sure
25
that everyone obeys them.' and that's an area we're still working on with the help of representatives from the police force.
26
Before you hear the rest of the talk, You have some time to look at questions 14 to 20.
27
Now listen and answer questions 14 to 20.
28
OK, so this slide shows a map of the central area of Granford, with the high street in the middle and school road on the right.
29
Now, we already have a set of traffic lights in the High Street at the junction with Station Road, but we're planning to have another set at the other end,
30
at the School Road Junction, to regulate the flow of traffic along the High Street.
31
We've decided we definitely need a pedestrian crossing.
32
We considered putting this on school road just outside the school, but in the end we decided that could lead to a lot of traffic congestion.
33
So we decided to locate it on the High Street, crossing the road in front of the supermarket.
34
That's a very busy area, so it should help things there.
35
we are proposing some changes to parking at present parking isn't allowed on the high street outside the library
36
but we are going to change that and allow parking there
37
but not at the other end of the high street near school road
38
There'll be a new 'no parking' sign on School Road, just by the entrance to the school, forbidding parking for 25 metres.
39
This should improve visibility for drivers and pedestrians, especially on the bend just to the north of the school.
40
As far as disabled drivers are concerned, at present they have parking outside the supermarket.
41
But lorries also use those spaces, so we've got two new disabled parking spaces on the side road up towards the bank.
42
It's not ideal, but probably better than the present arrangement.
43
We also plan to widen the pavement on School Road.
44
"'We think we can manage to get an extra half metre
45
on the bend "'just before you get to the school.' "'on the same side of the road.' Finally,
46
We've introduced new restrictions on loading and unloading for the supermarket, so lorries will only be allowed to stop there before 8am.
47
That's the supermarket on School Road.
48
We kept to the existing arrangements with the High Street supermarket.
49
Okay, so that's about it.
50
That is the end of section two.
51
You now have half a minute to check your answers.

Сценарий: Обсуждение изменений в дорожном движении

Видео представляет реальный разговор председателя дорожного комитета с жителями города Гранфорд о предлагаемых изменениях в трафике и парковке. Такие ситуации часто встречаются в повседневной жизни — на собраниях, совещаниях или при обсуждении городских проблем. Диалог содержит множество полезной лексики по теме транспорта, а также показывает, как выражать обеспокоенность, обосновывать решения и описывать изменения. Это отличная база для практики разговорного английского, так как сочетает реальную коммуникацию с конкретными деталями.

Полезные словосочетания и фразы

  • Traffic congestion — перегрузка дорожного движения. Часто используется в выражениях like "reduce traffic congestion" (снизить перегрузку) или "lead to congestion" (привести к заторам).
  • Pedestrian crossing — пешеходный переход. В диалоге упоминается размещение "pedestrian crossing on the High Street" (пешеходный переход на главной улице).
  • No parking sign — знак "стоп-линия" или "запрет на парковку". Пример: "new 'no parking' sign on School Road" (новый знак запрета на парковку на Школьной улице).
  • Loading and unloading — погрузка и выгрузка. В контексте: "restrictions on loading and unloading" (ограничения на погрузку и выгрузку).
  • Improve visibility — улучшить обзор. Важно для безопасности: "improve visibility for drivers" (улучшить обзор для водителей).

Ваше задание: практика shadowing

Shadowing (или "теньевой тренинг") — эффективный способ улучшить произношение английского, интонацию и темп речи. Для этого включите фрагмент диалога (например, описание изменений в парковке) и повторяйте за спикером сразу же после него, стараясь копировать его ритм, акценты и интонацию. Используйте shadowing site или специальные инструменты, чтобы замедлить темп, если нужно. Сфокусируйтесь на словосочетаниях из списка выше — повторяйте их несколько раз, пока не начнете говорить автоматически. Эта практика поможет вам привыкнуть к естественной речи и улучшить разговорный английский. Начните с 2-3 минут ежедневно, и через неделю вы заметите прогресс!

Не забывайте, что shadowspeak — это не просто повторение, а имитация коммуникативного стиля. Пracтикуйтесь с разными фрагментами видео, и вы быстро освоите необходимые навыки.

Грамматика в этом видео

Конструкции, которые говорящий использует чаще всего, с точными словами из видео:

КонструкцияВ видео
Present Perfect have/has + причастие прошедшего времени — прошлое действие, важное сейчасhave called · It's been · there's not been
Пассивный залог be + причастие прошедшего времени — важно, что происходит, а не кто это делаетwere mentioned · can be covered · isn't allowed

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.
