Unit 5.

Listening.
3
Exercise 3.
4
Hi Milton.
5
I didn't see you this afternoon.
6
You missed a really good talk.
7
Oh, did I?
8
That's a pity.
9
It was Mr Brand's talk about fossils, wasn't it?
10
Yeah.
11
I hadn't really expected to enjoy it, but it was fascinating.
12
I thought it would be.
13
I'd been planning to go to the talk, but then when I was in the lab this morning, I realised I hadn't done any reading for tomorrow's history seminar.
14
Well, I think he's going to repeat it sometime, but it may be next year.
15
Perhaps you could tell me a bit about it then.
16
Well, he talked about himself in the first part.
17
I saw on the notice that went round that he went to America to study and met a famous anthropologist.
18
Yeah, that's right.
19
But he said he got interested in fossils well before then when he was about six,
20
in fact, and he found the most amazing fossil on a school visit to a national park.
21
He showed it to us.
22
He still has it.
23
Though he said he wasn't looking for it at the time.
24
Most kids wouldn't recognise a fossil if they saw one.
25
I know.
26
They want to watch adventure films or play with model dinosaurs.
27
But apparently he spent his school holidays hunting for fossils in the farm pits near his home.
28
So, does he lecture on the subject now?
29
Yes, but he also runs a business organising fossil hunts for groups of adults and children.
30
Wouldn't it be great if we could do something like that?
31
He showed us a lot of pictures.
32
So, they all go out in a group to the cliffs or somewhere with little hammers, do they?
33
Yeah, apparently.
34
The kids tell everyone that's the best bit, tapping the stones to see if anything's there.
35
Do they know what they're looking for?
36
Yeah.
37
They get shown some examples of what they might find first.
38
And do they actually get to find any fossils?
39
Yes.
40
Mr Brand showed some photos of children proudly holding up their fossils for the camera at the end of the day.
41
If they take them home, I bet they become prized possessions in their rooms as well. For sure.
42
He said he never stops being amazed at how close you can be to a fossil.
43
I guess the children aren't aware of history that much.
44
No, but for them, the key thing they learn is that if they keep looking, they will find something.
45
You have to wait.
46
It's not for people who want instant success.
47
So, why don't we go on one of these hunts?
48
Well, yes, I'm quite keen.
49
The hunts are fully booked until the end of the year, unfortunately.
50
I could talk to some of the other students and see if we can form a group.
51
Oh, that's a good idea.
52
I'll give him a call.
53
Then, if we have enough people, we might be able to get him to do an extra one for us.
54
I'll look on his website when I get back to the dorm, just to get a bit more information.
55
Unit 5.
56
Listening.
57
Exercise 5.
58
So, what did he talk about in the second part? well
59
that was more theoretical but just as interesting and there were lots of visuals
60
you know how fossils are formed not exactly we all know
61
they're the remains of living organisms sort of entombed in rock
62
but i don't know how they get to be there well he basically went through the stages
63
that make that happen so did he talk about the conditions that bring about fossilization Yes, and he used a fish as an example.
64
Here, I'll show you my notes.
65
Wow, these are great diagrams, Junie.
66
Thanks.
67
OK, stage one.
68
Ah, yes, that's right.
69
A lot of fossils form underwater, don't they?
70
Yeah, like as soon as a fish dies, it sinks to the bottom of the ocean, and as long as a predator doesn't come along, it just lies there.
71
Undisturbed.
72
That's right.
73
And since the ocean bed's soft, well, much of it is, plus it's muddy as well, the fish gradually gets covered over and can't be seen anymore.
74
Hmm.
75
Apparently, for a fossil to begin to form, you also need conditions where the light is minimal and there's very little oxygen.
76
So the organic matter doesn't break down too quickly.
77
Yes.
78
And, you know, there are fault lines, even on the seabed, and the rocks can move.
79
Yeah, so once the fish gets buried, I guess that has to happen quite quickly.
80
All the sand and sediment piles up into layers
81
and the huge pressure and weight of all the layers compacts it and you move on to stage two,
82
where it gets heavier and heavier until it becomes hard rock.
83
there'd be no water left so the fish skeleton would be entombed it can stay like
84
that for millions of years can't it it can but during
85
that time the bone in the skeleton is replaced by minerals i see
86
and these minerals sort of mimic the shape of the skeleton yes
87
and that's how you get a fossil but how do we find them
88
if they're buried so far down again it's all down to the movement of the earth's plates.
89
In the last stage, many millions of years after the fossil has formed, the rock may lift and eventually be above sea level.
90
Meanwhile, the surface of the rock wears away?
91
Yes.
92
Another natural process called erosion wears away the rock until one day you can see the tip of the fossil.
93
And you break open the rock and there it is.
94
It's incredible, really.
95
unit 5 speaking exercises 2 and 3 actually there are a number of objects
96
that i could talk about in my home
97
so it's quite hard for me to decide what to choose
98
however i'm going to talk about a very special necklace
99
that i keep in my attic first i think i'll tell you where it came from Basically, it was an inheritance from my grandmother,
100
who was ninety -five years old when she died.
101
As far as I know, she'd been given it by someone, possibly an aunt, who'd bought it in a market in India.
102
It's a pity I didn't ask my grandmother.
103
I'd know its origins for certain if I'd asked her.
104
Anyway, undoubtedly it's pretty ancient now, probably an antique, although I've no idea what it's worth.
105
But, as my mother says, you can't put a price on something that has sentimental value.
106
If I were to lose it, I'd be really upset.
107
Just looking at it, I don't think you get an idea of its age.
108
You wouldn't realize how old it was unless you examined it closely.
109
I wouldn't say that it's strikingly beautiful, or something you'd choose to put on to go out for the evening.
110
It's just a long line of blue beads that are quite chipped and faded now.
111
They look pretty worthless, not as eye -catching as the gold necklace that I got for my twenty -first birthday.
112
Actually, I don't use the beads for anything because, as I said earlier, I don't wear them.
113
They're not at all fashionable.
114
In fact, I don't really like beads, but having said that, I'll always keep them.
115
If I were to throw the beads out, I wouldn't be able to forgive myself.
116
I'll pass them on to my children, so that they become an equally important family treasure for them.
117
It's funny to think, but if it hadn't been for my granny's aunt, I wouldn't have inherited that necklace.
118
Unit 5.
119
Speaking.
120
Exercise 7.
121
Why do you think some people like to keep old things, while others don't have any interest in doing this?
122
Actually, I'm sure there are all sorts of reasons, but perhaps the main one is space.
123
You know, if I were to live in a small apartment, I wouldn't be able to store much.
124
On the whole, people who are hoarders tend to have large attics or spare rooms or cupboards where they can put things.
125
I think it must be a question of personality.
126
And by that, I mean, well, some people are really sentimental, so they don't like to throw away things like cards or presents.
127
even though they don't want them anymore i guess you know
128
were they to throw them away they'd feel a sense of loss whereas other people maybe don't care
129
that much they're just happy to focus on the present unit
130
five pronunciation exercise two well old things are full of memories and i think that's the main reason why people keep them.
131
Perhaps the most obvious example is photographs.
132
I mean, although people might get rid of the ones that they don't like themselves in, they often keep others because they remind them of a special person or event.

Bu Klip ile Kazanacağın Konuşma Becerileri

Bu video, özellikle IELTS bandı 6.5-7.5 hedefleyen öğrenenler için önemli konuşma becerileri geliştirir. İlk olarak, doğal konuşma akışını takip etme yeteneğini artırırsın: konu değişiklikleri, iletişimdeki doğal kesintiler ve karşılık vermenin zamanlamasını öğrenirsin. İkincisi, konuşurların duygusal tonunu yansıtma becerisini kazanırısın; örneğin "That's a pity" ifadesindeki kırık tonu veya "fascinating" kelimesindeki heyecanı nasıl iletildiğini görürsün. Üçüncü olarak, gölgeleme tekniği ile gerçek hayatta kullanılan cümle yapılarını pekiştirirsin; bu, özellikle sınavlarda doğal konuşma üretmeni sağlar.

Bu Sesleri Dinle ve Öğren

Konuşmada birçok doğal konuşma özelliği bulunur. Örneğin, "I didn't see you" ifadesinde "didn't" ve "see" arasında bağlama (linking) mevcuttur: "didn't see" yerine "din see" gibi dinlenir. Ayrıca, "he said he got" ifadesinde "he got" kısaltılarak "he'd got" gibi dinlenebilir; bu kısaltma (reduction) konuşmanın hızını artırır. Diğer bir örnek ise "I bet they become" ifadesinde "bet they" arasında "t" harfi yumuşaklaşır ve "be they" gibi dinlenir. Bu tür ses değişikliklerini tanımak, hem dinleme hem de konuşma becerini önemli ölçüde artırır.

Yerli Konuşmacı Gibi Konuşmak İçin

Yerli gibi konuşmak için ritim ve vurgu patternsını takip etmelisin. Örneğin, "fascinating" kelimesinde "fas" kısmı vurulurken "ci" ve "nat" kısmı hafifletilir. "He showed it to us" cümlesinde "showed" ve "it" arasında kısa bir duraklama yoktur; akıcı bir şekilde birbirine bağlanır. Gölge konuşması tekniğini kullanarak, konuşmayı tekrar tekrar dinleyip aynı ritim ve vurguyla tekrarlarsan, doğal bir akış kazanır ve anlayışın da artar. Ayrıca, "the key thing they learn" ifadesinde "key" kelimesi vurgulanır; bu, önemli bilgilerin nasıl vurgulandığını gösterir. Bu tür detayları öğrenmek, senin konuşmanı daha anlaşılır ve doğal hale getirir. Gölgeleme uygulaması yaparken, özellikle these, they gibi kelimelerin az vurgu almasını unutma; bu, konuşmanın doğal olmasını sağlar.

Bu video, hem dinleme hem de konuşma becerilerini geliştirmek için mükemmel bir kaynakdır. Gölgeleme sitesi üzerinden benzer içerikler bulup pratik yaparak, kısa sürede ilerleme kaydederbilirsin. Unutma: doğal konuşma, sadece kelimelerden değil, sesler, ritim ve vurgu dan da oluşur!

Bu videodaki dil bilgisi

Konuşmacının en çok kullandığı yapılar, videodaki sözcüklerin aynısıyla:

YapıVideoda
Koşul cümleleri if + cümle, will/would + fiil — bir koşul ve sonucuif they keep looking, they will find · If I were to lose it, I'd be
Edilgen yapı be + fiilin üçüncü hâli — kimin yaptığı değil, ne olduğu önemlibeing amazed · are formed · can't be seen
İlgi cümlecikleri who / which + cümle — bir kişi ya da şey hakkında ek bilgipeople who want · people who are

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.
