All right then, let's begin.

So could you tell me your full name please?

My full name is Suhee Kang.

Suhee Kang, okay.

And are you working or are you a student?

I'm currently a graduate student.

I am finishing up my MA in the United States.

And could you tell me about your major?

So I major in cinema and media studies and basically what the major does is it looks at

film and other kinds of media like tv shows,

music, social media and it analyses the sort of social significance of the things that are relevant in the media.

And do you enjoy your major?

I do.

I've always loved consuming media for fun but getting to look at it from an academic perspective is very enjoyable as well.

Great.

And what do you enjoy doing in your free time?

In my free time, I like to listen to music.

Recently, I've gotten into sort of the algorithm, you know, on the music listening apps.

I love to discover new songs that are not even a language I understand

but are familiar genres so maybe you know rock

or jazz yeah that's my new hobby listening to music great okay now let's talk about saying thank you

so have you ever sent a thank you card to others

i have yes um a recent thank you card i remember

writing is to my friend an american friend in the United States.

I got sick at the end of last year, but this friend really came through and helped me with everything.

My parents had to come over and she helped them, helped pick them up from the airport.

And she just was a very good friend to me.

So I wanted to thank her.

I wrote her a handwritten note and gave it to her with a present because it was also her birthday.

Okay, perfect.

And do you think, do people in your country often say thank you?

Yes, they do.

I think it's sort of a very social expectation to be able to say thank you in in a socially acceptable way.

So I guess saying thank you with a handwritten note is, would be the most genuine form of saying thank you

but saying thank you out loud you know it's sort of every day for us Koreans even

when we go to a store and we don't buy anything and we just go out we would say thank you.

And on what occasions do you say thank you?

I would sort of divide that into two occasions.

The first one is, like I said, through the everyday thank you that I say, you know, out of habit more than anything.

You know, when I go to a store with strangers, with friends, or when I bump into someone or someone picks something up for me on the street.

But the other occasion is when someone really does something for me

that wasn't expected of them

but they do it anyway those are the occasions where I really want to express my gratitude

so I'll write a note or send a long text you know everything's digital now

so I guess it doesn't have to be handwritten okay lovely now let's talk about spare time

so do you often have free time I do especially in the summer I don't have classes

so I am technically free all day I spend, I have spent most of last week just meeting up with friends.

But when I'm in the U.S and I have free time,

I like to just go to campus and work on my essays or read a book.

I like to not be at home when I'm doing those things.

So even though I will go outside to campus, I will still sort of do things that allow me to be by myself.

Lovely.

And would you like to have more free time in the future?

Well, I wouldn't say no to any more free time, but I am sort of excited for the next part of my life,

which is going to be a bit busy and I do miss

that kind of routine going to class every day

and working as I guess a teaching assistant

or a research assistant I like to have that routine in my life

so I kind of miss that hustle and bustle I'm looking forward to that actually.

Okay perfect all right that'll do us for part one of the test now we'll move on to part two

so i'll just give you your question so i'll just give you

that here and i'll give you a pencil there too

so yeah now i'll give you one minute to do some note-taking for

that so you can write there all right okay that's one minute

so i'll ask you the question now

so could you describe a person who you think wears unusual clothes the person

that i would like to describe who wears unusual clothes is my friend she's called Se-eun

and she is actually not a person

that I have met in real life she's an online friend

that I met through you know social networking we bonded over

our love of movies she is currently a student preparing for an exam

and her clothes are very doll-like if If you've ever seen,

you know, little dolls that wear bonnets, flowy skirts, lacy, you know, like tops, that's her.

And her clothes are always patterned so beautifully.

They have pictures of, you know, little lambs, animals or, you know, pottery on them.

They're very beautiful, blue and pink.

I think her clothes are unusual

because I think in Korea the trend now is sort of being kind of hip and very fashionable, trendy.

But her clothes actually evoke an older time,

very feminine and girly, maybe even from the Victorian age you know they're very long skirts

so i think she is very unique

and probably brave for wearing those clothes maybe not in this weather

but you know in real life i think people will probably see her

and also think that she is very unique we're at about 1 40 there now okay

so yeah the the maximum is two minutes so yes um yeah good

and do you think um there's a difference between how people dress

when they're at work and

when they're in their free time yes absolutely at work um

there's not only the social expectation of having to be sort

of um you know uh not very flashy be sort of fit in an office environment,

especially if you work in an office or have a job that has to deal with a lot of customer, like in a coffee shop,

for example, you do if you stand out, I guess that's kind of people will judge you

if you stand out in that sort of environment where you have to be around other people.

But in their free time, people can really dress however they like.

I think they're more free to express themselves through their clothing.

For example, me, myself, I have had an office job before, and I wouldn't really wear, you know, a tank top to an office.

But, you know, when I'm going out with friends and

or going on a picnic on the river I would definitely wear

that so that's the kind of difference yes great

100

so now we'll move on to part three of the test

101

so keep it going we just get the timer okay

102

so yeah now on to the third part so do you think it is a good idea to buy clothes online

103

I do think it's a very good idea to buy clothes online.

104

First, I think there are so many more options.

105

It's very easy to search for what you want nowadays and find a store,

106

online store, that has that exact thing that you want.

107

But offline, it takes, you know, you have to walk around, you need to go upstairs,

108

you know, like look in every nook and cranny of the store, but online you can just do that with a click.

109

So I think it, I do think it's a good idea and also it's a lot accessible for,

110

a lot more accessible for people who might not live in a big city like Seoul.

111

When I live in the States, I live in a pretty small city, so there are many clothing stores out there

112

but online buying clothes online it makes me possible to find the styles that i want

113

without going to a big city that is probably three hours away yes

114

and what are the differences between clothes worn by older people and those worn by younger people

115

I would say the biggest difference is comfort, especially in Korea.

116

I think younger people are more willing to sacrifice a bit of comfort for their style, which I really admire.

117

I think it's a great thing.

118

For example, they might wear higher heels or more form-fitting clothes.

119

um not everyone of course but a lot more people might be willing to do

120

that in the younger generation than in the older generation

121

when i see the older generation on the street they might

122

wear very loose clothes like loose pants suitable for the weather um

123

if it's hot they there's a special material in korea

124

that allows you know like wind to go through the fabric

125

so they might wear clothes made out of that and

126

but I guess the younger generation are kind of willing to take

127

that risk to be a little uncomfortable if in order to look good.

128

Do you think it's important to be fashionable?

129

I do.

130

I did not used to think that.

131

I used to think that you know it's just clothes what why Why does it matter?

132

But then I found out about, you know, thrift shopping, vintage shopping,

133

and how to be fashionable while still, you know, protecting the environment,

134

and also expressing yourself through clothes, because there are a lot more things

135

that you can find in the thrift store that are more unique than things sold in a regular store.

136

So when I find that unique item, I feel like it's really for me alone,

137

And that has really kind of shown me the pleasure of expressing myself through clothing.

138

Yes, yes.

139

And what effect do you think clothing and fashion has on the environment?

140

Well, I don't think it's a very positive effect as of now.

141

Of course, as more people get interested in upcycling or vintage, it might change.

142

But as of now, I think a lot of clothes get made, but they don't all get sold.

143

So that excess clothing I heard just gets buried in the desert in Africa somewhere.

144

And there's a big landfill just full of fashionable clothes that haven't even gotten sold yet.

145

So I think it's important for clothing companies to produce less, not even, I guess, upcycle or recycle clothing,

146

just maybe produce less in the first place to better sort of count their demand

147

and try to meet that instead of producing just whatever they can.

148

Do you think expensive clothing is always better than cheaper clothing?

149

I actually do think that in most cases expensive clothing is better,

150

especially if it's made out of materials that last longer.

151

If you buy, you know, a 3001 t-shirt, I don't think it's going to be made of cotton that is very durable,

152

but expensive clothing means that there is a certain guarantee that the cotton is going to be,

153

you know, more thick, it's going to be last longer

154

so i guess buying something even if it's a little more expensive

155

when you first buy it is um ultimately going to be better for the environment

156

because you don't have to buy the same thing two

157

or three times the lifespan is much longer okay that'll do

158

us we're all done there thank you for your time thank you yes all right

159

so yeah now let's talk about the the feedback of the

160

test yeah you know to be honest i don't really have much to say

161

about like improvements there's a lot of positivity to talk about

162

i'd like to talk about like the positive things first the language you're using a lot of nice phrases like

163

when you said you were sick

164

and this friend really came through for you that's a nice expression we could use um saying thank you um

165

when you mentioned that you say it out of habit i think that's a nice expression

166

instead of like i feel like a lot of students would say i say thank you

167

because it is my habit

168

but nice expression i say it out of habit out of habit yeah um

169

when you talked about your friend in part two bonded over our love of good expression right

170

so i think students could definitely use phrases like this we

171

bonded over our love of music yep um what else we got uh every nook

172

and cranny I like that one as well.

173

Good expression to use.

174

Yeah, when you go shopping, you have to look in every nook and cranny and online is a lot more convenient.

175

Good expression as well, sacrifice comfort for style.

176

You know, that could be a good one if students are looking for expressions.

177

Sacrifice A for B.

178

So a lot of young people sacrifice comfort for fashion and style.

179

Not many things to say in terms of grammar.

180

Maybe one time I think we said like more thick, should be thicker you know not a big deal um just about the difference between go outside

181

and go out i'm sure you know obviously yeah yeah just students would confuse that sometimes go outside is more

182

outdoorsy yeah go out could be going to your campus library

183

or anything like that yeah yeah but yeah no

184

that was a really good test so thank you for coming in well thank you so much yes lovely all right

185

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.
