4
on the topic of a technology or gadget that you find interesting.
5
I'll read the cue card to you now.
6
Describe a technology or gadget that you find fascinating.
7
You should say what the technology or gadget is.
8
how you first learned about it, what you use it for, and explain why you find it fascinating.
9
In this week's sample, you will hear the speaker describe something as absolutely fascinating.
10
When combining longer words like this, it is very important you stress the correct part of each word to ensure your listener understands what you are saying.
11
Listen to how I stress the third syllable and then the first syllable when saying this phrase.
12
Absolutely fascinating.
13
Absolutely fascinating.
14
Absolutely fascinating.

One piece of technology that I find absolutely fascinating is the smartwatch.
20
Specifically, I use an Apple Watch, but I believe most smartwatches these days offer similar features.
21
I first learned about smartwatches a few years ago
22
when a friend of mine showed me his new watch during a coffee meetup.
23
I remember being amazed at how he was able to receive messages, track his steps, and even monitor his heart rate, all from his wrist.
24
I primarily use my smartwatch to keep track of my daily fitness goals.
25
It records how many steps I take, how many calories I burn, and it even reminds me to stand up and move around if I've been sitting for too long.
26
Additionally, I use it to quickly check notifications without having to constantly reach for my phone.
27
What I find most fascinating about this gadget is how it seamlessly combines health,
28
communication and convenience into one compact device.
29
The fact that it can even detect if I've fallen or measure my blood oxygen levels is truly remarkable.
30
I believe wearable technology like this will play an increasingly important role in how we manage our health in the future.
31
Thank you.
32

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.
