6
The person I'm closest to in my family is definitely my mum, Kate.
7
We've always got on and we hardly ever fall out.
8
I know that's unusual.
9
She's really outgoing and sociable.
10
She's always going out with friends and colleagues.
11
Everyone thinks she's good fun.
12
I look up to her because she's so hard -working, she never sits still, and she works long hours.
13
She can be a bit impatient, though.
14
She gets annoyed when her colleagues aren't as efficient as her.
15
I take after her in that.
16
I'm impatient, too.
17
And she's oversensitive, often getting offended for seemingly no reason.
18
2. My cousin Kieran and I grew up together.
19
We were inseparable.
20
He was so creative, he'd always think of new games we could play, and make up these stories to make me laugh.
21
I was constantly amazed by his open -mindedness as well.
22
He was never judgmental.
23
I wish I could be like that.
24
Unfortunately, we grew apart, slowly but surely, and by the time we went to uni, we weren't in touch anymore.
25
I haven't seen him for years.
26
It's really sad.
27
I would blame it partly on the fact that he's not very reliable.
28
So, for example, if I email him, he won't respond.
29
I'm not sure what he's up to these days.
30
3. I know this is a cliché, but I don't get on with my in -laws, especially my mother -in -law, Jane.
31
She's so nosy, always wanting to know what we're doing and who we're with,
32
and she's terribly blunt, which means she quite often upsets us with things she comes out with.
33
and then she can be quite stingy.
34
When we go out for a meal with her and my father -in -law, she never offers to pay, even though they're much better off than us.
35
I must say, though, She's extremely clever and I do respect her for that.
36
She set up her own business five years ago and it's gone from strength to strength.
37
She's so self -assured and ambitious too, which I suppose is why she's so successful in business.

110
Track 2.
111
Tell me something about your family.
112
What do you like doing most with your family?
113
Who are you close to in your family?
114
In what way is your family important to you?
115
Sample answers.
116
Tell me something about your family.
117
Although I live abroad now, my mum's family is from Paris and my dad's family is from Toulouse,
118
so I'm from a very French family.
119
Um, I would say I come from quite a small family, really.
120
For example, I just have one older sister and four cousins, but it's true that my extended family is fairly big.
121
What do you like doing most with your family?
122
Err, I like having nice long meals with good food and good wine, and a few jokes for dessert.
123
Who are you close to in your family?
124
In my family?
125
Well, I'm close to my Uncle Jacques.
126
He's a chef.
127
He's hilarious, always telling jokes.
128
And he's very enthusiastic about everything he does.
129
We spent a lot of time together when I was growing up.
130
In fact, he helped to bring me up.
131
In what way is your family important to you?
132
My family is everything to me.
133
They are my best friends.
134
They support me when things aren't going well, and when things are going well.
135
I know they'll always be there for me, no matter what.
136
Track 3.
137
One of my best friends is a guy called Raul.
138
I met him at uni in Barcelona where we were in the same study group.
139
When was that?
140
I suppose it was over ten years ago now, so yes, we've known each other for a good decade.
141
We got to know each other on the tennis courts
142
because the first few days of our course were so boring that we both decided we'd be better off outside playing tennis.
143
'What kind of person is he?
144
He's very active, a sporty type, involved in hiking and mountainbiking,
145
a bit of an adrenaline junkie.' He's also a very determined person, When he gets into something, he gives 100%.
146
and he changes passions often.
147
That makes him a bit of a self -absorbed person actually, which I'd say is a drawback.
148
And I think he comes across as full of himself sometimes.
149
I'm a bit too sure of his own opinions.
150
As for why I like him, well, he's actually quite different from me.
151
At uni, he'd often suggest doing something and I'd go along with it, and because I'm laid back, I never felt overwhelmed by him.
152
We've never fallen out or anything.
153
How often do you see your friend?
154
Well...
155
Because we live in different countries, we don't see each other that often.
156
But we try to catch up on a fairly regular basis, say, three times a year.
157
Track 4.
158
one.
159
Can I have a cup of tea?
160
2. We met at uni.
161
3. I've known him for ten years.
162
Four.
163
I'm from Dubai.
164
5. It's quarter to ten.
165
Track 5.
166
1. 2.
167
Ta.
168
2. of of.
169
3. at.
170
ut.
171
4. From. from, 5.
172
Four.
173
F. Track 6.
174
One.
175
Has she been waiting for long?
176
2. What are you looking at?
177
3. The present's not from Mark, it's for Mark.
178
4. I want to go.
179
Track 7 Modern families.
180
In what ways have families changed in the last hundred years?
181
Should we rely heavily on our families, or is it better to try to be independent?
182
The elderly are sometimes considered the wisest members of society.
183
What do you think we can learn from them?
184
Friendship What do you expect from a good friend?
185
Are friends as important to you as family?
186
Do you think friendships change as we get older?
187
How?
188
Sample answers.
189
In what ways have families changed in the last hundred years?
190
In Western countries, I would say families have become more widely dispersed and less close,
191
People travel more and then end up living far away from their families.
192
I think this is a shame because it means there is a breakdown of communities.
193
I also think that, because families are spread over a wider geographical area,
194
elderly people tend to be forgotten and usually live on their own.
195
Should we rely heavily on our families, or is it better to try to be independent?
196
'People seem to like living independently from each other these days,
197
but I do wonder if that's the best way.' Relying on people is seen as a weakness by some, I think.
198
However, having family nearby is invaluable when you have children, in my opinion.
199
Who else can be called on to babysit at a moment's notice?
200
The elderly are sometimes considered the wisest members of society.
201
What do you think we can learn from them?
202
Oh, an immense amount.
203
They're our living link with the past - of a family, a region, a country.
204
They're the keepers of local traditions, for example, and they provide a sense of identity to younger generations.
205
Sample answers.
206
What do you expect from a good friend?
207
For me, a good friend has to be reliable.
208
I can't stand being stood up or having my emails and texts ignored.
209
As well as that, a friend should be someone you can have good fun with, There are many things in life to be serious about,
210
but friendship shouldn't be one of them.
211
I also believe that opposites attract - in friendships just as in romance,
212
so a good friend will most likely be very different from you in many ways.
213
Are friends as important to you as family?
214
"Hmm, no, I wouldn't say so.
215
Friends come and go, but family are always there, whether you like it or not.
216
You can even be rude to your family, er, not that it's advisable, of course, and they will forgive you.
217
But sometimes you've known a friend for so long, they can become like a family member, you can really be yourself with them,
218
and you may even argue quite often, er, like siblings do.
219
'Do you think friendships change as we get older?' Well, I definitely find that I have less in common with some friends than I used to,
220
I sometimes wonder what we used to find to talk about.
221
And so you often grow apart from old school friends or old colleagues.
222
"The people I feel I have most in common with are friends I met at university.
223
I'm not sure why, but we somehow always have lots to talk about.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
