Part 4.
2
You will hear an interview with a tree surgeon called Andrew Smith, who carries out work on trees to make sure they're healthy and safe.
3
Today we're talking to Andrew Smith, who's a tree surgeon.
4
Andrew works on trees to make sure they're in good condition and not likely to damage people or property.
5
How did you become a tree surgeon, Andrew?
6
My dad's a tree surgeon, and as a child I sometimes watched him working.
7
I also learned a lot about trees, and the birds and other creatures that live in them, from him.
8
After college, I joined an IT company, but it quickly became clear to me I couldn't stand being inside for hours on end every day.
9
So I asked my dad if I could work with him.
10
He had his own tree care firm.
11
He'd always avoided putting pressure on me to follow him into the business, but he was happy to take me on.
12
Can you remember the first tree you cut down?
13
Yes, it was eight years ago.
14
An oak tree had died and needed removing.
15
The whole job took two days.
16
Dad said I did well, which was nice, though by the end I was so exhausted I couldn't really appreciate what I'd done.
17
Tree care is obviously very physical work, but the way you climb with ropes rather than grabbing branches
18
and pulling yourself up requires techniques that can take ages to get right.
19
I hadn't realised that, even though I'd watched tree surgeons working.
20
Do you enjoy working with your father?
21
Yes, we're not that different in some ways.
22
He's very thorough, he tries not to leave anything to chance, but if problems occur, which happens when you work with trees, he doesn't panic.
23
And I think he's passed all that on to me.
24
What I'm not always so good at, and I admire this about him, is thinking in broader terms and judging what the best way ahead will be.
25
Hopefully I'll learn.
26
Tell me about a job you've done for a client recently.
27
Okay.
28
A client was worried that two trees in her garden might fall onto her neighbour's roof.
29
One was an old pear tree, which could easily have come down in a strong wind.
30
I showed the lady evidence that it was rotten and suggested removing it.
31
The other tree was an ash.
32
I explained that it had some diseased branches which needed cutting.
33
The next morning I went back with a couple of guys and by lunchtime we'd done everything.
34
The lady said she was delighted.
35
She'd assumed we'd be there for a few days.
36
What do you like most about your job?
37
You can't do this work on your own.
38
You need workmates, and this way of working definitely suits the way I am.
39
There's also a sense of progression.
40
You can never know everything there is to know about trees, for example.
41
And I regularly do courses and read research.
42
What appeals to me more than anything, though, is that we help to make public places – parks, squares and streets – safe, but also beautiful.
43
And what's the worst part?
44
I can't say I always enjoy the last stage of a job, clearing away the dust, leaves, broken branches and cut up logs.
45
I'd rather do that than fill in the risk assessment forms, safety checklists and so on that come with every job though.
46
That stuff has to be done but it's definitely not my thing.
47
Tree surgeons often complain it's too hot to work or too cold
48
and you can't climb trees and use powerful electrical tools if it's snowing or even raining hard.
49
A varied climate has its plus points though.
50
How do you see your future as a tree surgeon?
51
Well the work's so tough physically it becomes too difficult after a certain age, and I have to plan for that.
52
Eventually, maybe in my 40s, I'll do more of what my dad does now, the business side of things, giving advice.
53
With climate change, there's a fast-growing awareness of how important trees are for the world, and tree surgeons are experts.
54
Hopefully, the value of what we know will be increasingly recognised.
55
And we'll get better paid, too.
56
Tree surgeons generally don't earn what they deserve.
57
Thank you.

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.
