59
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 7 to 10 on page 2.
60
Now listen and answer questions 7 to 10.
61
Now, I wonder if I could just ask you a couple of questions as part of our market research.
62
Would you be happy to do that?
63
Will this take long?
64
Just a couple of minutes, that's all.
65

90

91
That's great.
92
And can I ask how you found out about Bakewell Travel?
93
That is the end of Section 1.
94
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
95
Now turn to section 2 on page 3.
96
Part 2.
97
You will hear the manager of Cretan Running Sports Club called Dave giving some information about the running competition
98
which will be held next month.
99
First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 17.
100
Now, listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 17.
101
Good morning everyone.
102
I'm Dave, the manager of Cretan Running Sports Club.
103
Today I'll tell you something about the running competition which will be held next month.
104
As we know, the annual run is one of the most popular events in our town, and it attracts young and old every year.
105
This year we will continue the tradition, but there will be some small adjustments.
106
First, about the date.
107
The exact time of the run is still on the first Saturday of May, but we'll inform you in advance if it's to be delayed due to bad weather.
108
The run used to start at the park, which is being refurbished at the moment, so this time all the runners are expected to gather in front of the castle and start from there.
109
The actual run begins at 9am, but the runners start arriving at about 8 .45,
110
so some of you might have to get up early that morning if you live far away.
111
Someone has asked how long you'll be required to run.
112
In the past few years, the runners have had to complete the distance of 5 miles.
113
But most people want to do a bit more than that, so we will lengthen it to 7 miles this time.
114
Some of you might not be sure whether you can run that far, so you'd better start doing a bit of training.
115
I'm excited to tell you
116
that this year we've got the sponsorship from a big company who has promised to cover all the competition expenses, including the prize for the champion.
117
The runner with the shortest time will be awarded sports equipment worth about £1 ,000.
118
Each runner will be timed from the starting point until the end.
119
When you cross the finish line marked on the ground of the station, You'll be given a barcode, and you should take this to one of the run volunteers who will scan it.
120
Then you can get your time on the computer immediately, and the volunteers will collect all the results.
121
If you are interested in the run, I suggest you register as soon as possible.
122
The deadline is next Sunday.
123
However, I should tell you this year you can't enrol through the internet, but have to go to the town hall and give all the personal information and sign your name.
124
It doesn't cost anything to register.
125
As I've just said, all the costs related to the competition will be paid by our sponsor.
126
As for the age limit, you have to be at least 16, and the top limit is now 70,
127
though you need to obtain a health certificate from your doctor if you're over 60 years old.
128
If you do come and participate in the run, I definitely recommend that you should prepare an extra pair of shoes,
129
as last year one of the runners got something wrong with his shoes during the running
130
and had to give up halfway through the competition.
131
Besides, a jacket will also be advisable, so you don't catch a cold after sweating a lot during the running.
132
There is no need to worry about snacks or drinks, as every runner will be supplied with chocolates and bottled water.
133
Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 18 to 20.
134
Now listen and answer questions 18 to 20.
135
to prepare for this annual running competition our club is going
136
to organize a training class for all the participants in the
137
class an experienced trainer will teach you the professional steps on
138
how to do a running competition like warming up before running
139
for those who plan to do training by yourselves there are
140
some suggestions for you first don't just do morning jogging with your dog remember
141
that you're going to compete with others i know some people like to exercise in groups
142
but it's more effective to run with your friend who can be your rival
143
and stimulate your potential then i suggest you make a record
144
of your running time it can show whether you've made any
145
progress day by day what's more you'd better get used to different roads
146
and paths in the countryside or village as you won't just be running on level ground during the competition.
147
By the way, you don't have to run in all kinds of weather.
148
As I've just said, our competition is going to be held in good weather.
149
Well, that's all the details about the running competition.
150
If you have any other questions, please call our club at 8345 6234.
151
Anyone who is interested in the run just gets started.
152
That is the end of part 2 You now have 30 seconds to check your answers to part 2
153
Section 3.
154
You'll hear two students named Rick and Nina discussing about selective courses.
155
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 26.
156
Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 26.
157
Hey, Nina.
158
Have you chosen a selective course yet?
159
Not really, Rick.
160
I haven't made up my mind yet.
161
What about you?
162
Me either.
163
We have to decide as soon as possible, though.
164
Why?
165
Today's not the final day for choosing selective courses, is it?
166
No, but they'll be booked up very soon.
167
Actually, some courses are already full.
168
Really?
169
That's too bad.
170
Thank you.
171
Well, I was thinking of taking a language course.
172
What do you think?
173
Yes, you can do that.
174
You can choose all courses on the school website except mathematics, since it's a required course for all students.
175
By the way, I think business course is a good choice.
176
Yeah, it's not bad.
177
I think it's going to be quite helpful after we graduate.
178
I think so.
179
Guess what?
180
I wanted to choose information statistics.
181
Why?
182
It's related to our major, so I think it's very useful for us.
183
I mean, we will have an advantage in job hunting.
184
But the bad thing is, it's in the morning, so we have to skip other classes in order to take it.
185
That's not good.
186
We need to find an alternative that is more convenient for us.
187
I know, it's a shame.
188
Nina, I think we need to get to know the courses more before choosing them.
189
otherwise we may end up studying something that's either boring or useless.
190
You're right.
191
Maybe we can look online to see if there's information about it.
192
We could also ask our parents for advice.
193
I don't think that's going to help much.
194
People have all kinds of opinions online.
195
We wouldn't know which one to listen to.
196
And our parents probably don't know much about our field.
197
I think the best way is asking the former students who have taken the class themselves.
198
They can tell us how they thought about it from their own experience.
199
Oh yes, they know it better than anyone.
200
Just like how much we know the art design class.
201
Yes, before we took it last year, many people said on the internet that it was quite confusing.
202
But it turned out to be quite easy and helpful, right?
203
Mm -hmm.
204
It didn't let us down.
205
I definitely value the course.
206
Design is an important skill in today's world.
207
Well, whatever course we want to choose, there are still things I need to figure out.
208
What do you mean?
209
Do you mean things like the time of the courses?
210
Since it's the first time we can choose selective courses, I need to know how to register.
211
I think there will be instruction on our school website for registration.
212
I'll let you know.
213
You are so considerate, Nina.
214
I think that's necessary.
215
We need to make sure we can register as soon as we make up our mind.
216
Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions 27 to 30.
217
Now, listen and answer questions 27 to 30.
218
The courses we studied last semester were quite interesting.
219
Maybe we could get some inspiration from those courses.
220
Do you think so?
221
Well, yeah, some of them were quite fun for me, such as metallurgy, though there were quite a lot of terms to remember.
222
But there's also a lot of useful information about it on the internet, which made things easier.
223
That's right.
224
I can refer to many things when I was working on the paper.
225
And the professor in Fluid Mechanics was really patient.
226
His explanation was crystal clear, so students had no difficulty understanding it.
227
Yes, that's true.
228
I was good at this course.
229
What do you think of computing?
230
I think it was kind of boring in the beginning.
231
Do you think so?
232
That's exactly how I felt.
233
There are a lot of numbers to deal with.
234
But thankfully, it got more interesting when the course went on.
235
Right, because later we could relate the theories to real -life examples.
236
Exactly.
237
Another course that I think was really practical is Energy Economy.
238
Oh, yes.
239
There are a lot of practical works in the course.
240
What we learned can come in handy in our future jobs.
241
We should make the decision based on our own experience and preference.
242
Yeah.
243
Anyway, we really need to hurry up.
244
I'm sure we can reach a conclusion today.
245
That is the end of Section 3.
246
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
247
Practice 1 You will hear a lecture about the situation of wild animals, especially wild boar.
248
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 10.
249
Thank you.
250
Now, listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 10.
251
Good morning.
252
My name's Jim Robinson and today we're going to look at the control of wild animals, specifically wild boar.
253
Now, boar have been natural inhabitants of Western Europe for thousands of years,
254
but in recent years, there has been a surge in boar activity that poses real threat.
255
Boars are not currently on the protected animals list, which is perhaps why there has been a spike in their breeding activity.
256
Boars are an indigenous species and are particularly plentiful in rural France and the Bavarian uplands of Germany.
257
Boar hunting is a European tradition that goes back to Roman times and became particularly popular among courtiers during the Middle Ages.
258
Even during the 20th century, boar hunting was seen as an integral part of rural life.
259
The decline in boar hunting has obviously led to a rise in the boar populations of Europe,
260
and the situation has reached a critical point, with boar posing a critical threat to the environment.
261
Proponents of boar hunting cite this factor as a major reason why boar populations should be contained.
262
Boar also pose a threat to humans too, with countless reports of people being injured during boar attacks.
263
The origins of the wild boar have roots in Germanic, and this perhaps explains their prevalence in Germany.
264
The problems with the boar population, Germany have ramifications for the rest of Europe,
265
as boar packs migrate towards Central and Eastern Europe.
266
One of the main issues that is of great concern is the transmission of diseases that infect other species
267
dairy farmers in france are particularly concerned as many of them
268
have seen their herds depleted by infections the methods for containing boar populations have been looked at in great detail
269
and numerous options are available one is to encourage more boar hunting in wild regions such as mountains and forests.
270
Hunters would be given licenses to hunt, either for food or sport.
271
Of course, boar do pose a threat to human life, so this possibility must be looked at with caution.
272
One method that must be ruled out is poison, as legislation has been introduced prohibiting this.
273
Such methods were tried with rabbits in the 1960s, and this had a disastrous impact on the food chain.
274
The introduction of natural predators into the ecosystem is also an option that can't be considered.
275
The only known predators of boar in the world are wild cats, like lions and tigers.
276
Obviously, there's no way such animals can be allowed to roam the mountains and forests of Europe.
277
given the threat that boars posed to humans it is imperative
278
that forest dwelling boar are kept well away from people in
279
cities this is absolutely essential as human safety must be the
280
main priority of policy makers by the 11th century boars in
281
several european countries were becoming increasingly rare in great britain King
282
Charles attempted to reintroduce boars in the New Forest area of the country,
283
yet the entire population was almost wiped out during the battles of the English Civil War
284
when roaming soldiers hunted them for food.
285
During the 1980s, wild boar rearing was encouraged and boar populations began to rise again.
286
By the 1990s, there was a huge rise in the number of boar across England,
287
due in large part to the species no longer forced to live in captivity.
288
Many boar have broken free from farms across England and are breeding at a rapid rate.
289
Aside from their environmental threat, boars also pose a problem for farmers growing crops and vegetables.
290
Other species such as red deer are a threat to farm produce like grain and potatoes,
291
but boars certainly present the most serious risk.
292
The damage done to the farming industry is estimated to cost millions of pounds
293
and insurance payments as a result of this have spiked in the last decade.
294
Red deer are predominantly confined to forest areas and it is unusual to see them outside their habitats during the summer months.
295
However, as the weather gets colder, they can be seen looking for food around local villages and fields.
296
Red deer have their origins in Asia and are ruminant species,
297
which means they have a stomach that consists of four compartments, much like cows.
298
They are slaughtered for food and their meat is sold as venison and is increasingly popular among consumers.
299
There are nine subspecies of red deer, with three of them on the endangered species list.
300
The deer population doesn't pose the same threat as the boar population, but it certainly needs to be addressed.
301
Forest areas are their main habitats, and they are now breeding at a much higher rate than in previous years. Of course,
302
deer are an important part of the food chain and are an important part of the hunting traditions of the UK,
303
so it is important that their population is kept stable for this reason.
304
Though the real concern is the problems that deer present for farmers who have seen their crops suffer in devastating ways.
305
Protection needs to be offered and many farmers report building large perimeter fences around their fields to keep deer out,
306
which costs them a huge amount of money.
307
Government funding is so far inadequate to offer the protection farmers need,
308
but ways are being looked at to provide subsidies through other means.
309
That is the end of practice one.
310
You now have half a minute to check your answers.

- Normal hızda cümle cümle tekrar edin; ritminiz konuşmacıyla aynı olana kadar her cümleyi yineleyin.
- Kendinizi kaydedin ve orijinaliyle karşılaştırın; deer, runner, farmer gibi kelimelere özellikle dikkat edin.
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.
