Thanks.

This is the speaking test for the International English Language Testing System held on the 25th of March at the Kent Institute.

The candidate is Faris Ahmadi,

candidate number 012458 and the examiner is James Smith,

number five five five six eight seven good afternoon hello

my name is Jane Smith what's your name my name's Faris

Ahmadi you can call me Faris can I see your identification please sure you are thank you That's fine.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Now, in part one of the test,

I'm going to ask you some questions about yourself.

First, do you work or are you a student?

I'm a student.

What are you studying?

I'm studying engineering.

Why did you choose to study this subject?

I don't really know.

My parents thought it would be a good thing for me to study and I did well at mathematics at high school.

So I thought it might be interesting.

It's okay, I guess.

Have you made many friends on the course?

Yes, yes I have.

There are some great guys on my course.

Sometimes we get together and study after class and drink coffee,

chat, that kind of thing.

Let's talk about keeping fit and healthy now.

What do you do to stay healthy?

Well, I try to watch my diet.

I try to eat healthy foods,

you know, fruit, vegetables, but I really love meat too.

I think my diet is pretty good.

Do you do any exercise?

Yeah, sure, from time to time.

What kind?

Well, I try to go to the gym once

or twice a week and I like going for walks in the evening when it's a bit cooler.

How active were you when you were a child?

Oh, very active, yes.

I was always playing with my brothers,

fighting, wrestling, playing games, you know.

How important is it for children to be active?

Oh, very important.

Nowadays kids just play video games all day.

They don't get enough exercise in my opinion.

They're just couch potatoes.

Now, let's talk about the weather.

What kind of weather do you like best?

Rainy weather, definitely.

Why?

Oh, because it rarely rains in my region,

so when it does, everyone is really happy.

And it cools down the temperature too.

Have you noticed any changes in the weather recently in your country?

Any changes?

Like climate change?

Oh, well, I guess it's changed a little.

People say it's hotter than it used to be,

but I'm not really sure if that's true.

What do you like to do in winter?

Well, the winter in my country is quite short.

It's nice to get outside and go for a walk.

You can in winter because it's not so hot.

I sometimes go horse riding too.

I belong to a club and I go there a bit at weekends.

That's really fun.

Thank you.

That brings us to the end of part one.

Now, Faris, I'm going to give you a topic and I'd like you to talk about it for one to two minutes.

Before you begin, you have one minute to think about what you want to say.

You can make some notes if you wish.

Do you understand?

Yes.

Okay, you can make some notes on this paper.

Here is your topic.

I'd like you to talk about a building that you like.

Thank you.

All right.

Now, remember you have one to two minutes for this,

so don't worry if I interrupt you.

I'll tell you when the time is up.

You can begin now.

Okay, I'm going to tell you about a building I know quite well and I really like it actually.

Actually it's in my hometown Abu Dhabi and the name of this building is the Capitol Gate building.

It's quite a new building,

only a few years old,

but already it has become an important landmark because it's really unusual in its appearance.

The first thing you notice is that it leans over to one side.

It's like the building in Italy,

the leaning tower of Pisa.

Only that building is leaning because it's too old.

This one is leaning because it was the architect's design.

Actually, it's very strange.

It's a skyscraper.

It's very modern looking, really cutting edge design.

It doesn't really have any sharp corners.

It has lots of curves and it is all glass on the outside.

Okay, moving on to what it's used for.

100

Well, there is a hotel inside and maybe some apartments too.

101

And I think there are some offices as well,

102

but I'm not exactly sure.

103

Finally, the reason why I like it is,

104

well, I guess it's because it's unique.

105

It's special.

106

Also, I'm interested in architecture, especially modern architecture.

107

And I'm quite fascinated by how the building stays up.

108

I mean, it doesn't fall down.

109

I think it's because the building has a steel frame.

110

And I heard it also has very deep foundations.

111

So, if you visit my city,

112

I'd recommend that you see this building.

113

That's all, actually.

114

Thank you.

115

Do other people like this building?

116

Yes, everyone likes it.

117

It's a real landmark of the city now.

118

Thank you.

119

Can I have the task card and the paper and pencil, please?

120

Yes, sure.

121

Here you go.

122

Thank you.

123

So, we've been talking about a building you like,

124

and I'd like to discuss with you one or two more general questions related to this.

125

First of all, let's consider traditional and modern buildings.

126

Do you think it's important for the government to preserve traditional buildings,

127

or should Should the money be spent on essential services such as hospitals and schools?

128

That's a tricky question to answer.

129

Which one is more important?

130

Well, I'd have to say both.

131

First of all, of course,

132

the government should try to maintain traditional buildings.

133

They are our heritage and they connect us to a past in a way

134

that looking at a photo in a book cannot.

135

Personally I don't enjoy looking around old buildings such as castles

136

but I know in some countries tourists flock to these type of buildings

137

so I can imagine that many people in those countries want to see them preserved.

138

But on the other hand,

139

we shouldn't be spending so much money on them that we have poor health and education service.

140

Educating our children and treating sick people has to be a priority too.

141

And is it possible for a government to fund all of these things?

142

Can I just check what you mean by fund?

143

Is that pay for?

144

Yes, pay for.

145

Can a government pay for all of these things?

146

I suppose it depends on the country.

147

My country is fairly wealthy,

148

so yes, I think it can afford public services and money for preservation.

149

But in poorer countries, I can imagine that the majority of people there would want better schools and good hospitals.

150

Many people like living in modern buildings.

151

Why do you think that is?

152

Well, I think I am one of them.

153

Living in a modern home is much easier on the whole, I think.

154

You don't have to worry about,

155

what's the word, you know,

156

fixing them up all the time.

157

Oh, renovating.

158

That's it.

159

You don't have to renovate new homes.

160

They're in perfect condition.

161

and this probably saves a lot of money.

162

I imagine repairing and maintaining a home is very costly.

163

And another reason, of course,

164

is that modern homes have all the mod cons, you know, modern conveniences.

165

And I think most people these days are looking for ways to save time.

166

What do you think homes of the future will look like?

167

Homes in the future?

168

That's a good question.

169

Let me see.

170

If you mean 10 or 20 years from now,

171

I don't think they will be that different to what we have now.

172

But perhaps 50 years from now,

173

I think it's likely that we'll see some changes.

174

I think cities will get denser than they are now,

175

I mean, there'll be more people living in the same area.

176

To cope with this, I think homes will get smaller and perhaps taller in order to fit more people in.

177

In the major cities in my country, this has already happened.

178

But 50 years from now,

179

I think most cities and towns will be the same, very dense.

180

Well, thank you very much.

181

That's the end of the speaking test.

182

Thank you.

183

Thank you.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
