No problem at all.

In Calgary's market, you have to move fast if you want a good apartment.

My father has me on a strict budget.

17
Let's talk a little about the places before we go have a look.
18
Now, we have four apartments available.
19
OK.
20
Could you tell me more about those four apartments?
21
Sure.
22
The first one is on Beetle Road, just a block off campus.
23
It's a three -bedroom with a bathroom and a living room and a great Italian restaurant right next to it.
24
The agent says that the first apartment is a three -bedroom apartment with a great Italian restaurant right next to it.
25
So, restaurant has been written in the space.

Now we shall begin.

Let's talk a little about the places before we go have a look.
41
Now, we have four apartments available.
42
OK.
43
Could you tell me more about those four apartments?
44
Sure.
45
The first one is on Beetle Road, just a block off campus.
46
It's a three -bedroom with a bathroom and a living room and a great Italian restaurant right next to it.
47
How much?
48
Well, it's $435 a month, including internet and utilities.
49
OK, that sounds reasonable.
50
Any drawbacks to the house?
51
There's a really big garden, but it hasn't been taken care of over the years and it's just too big to clean up nicely.
52
Hmm, that sounds OK.
53
Tell me about the next option.
54
The other three -bedroom apartment is on Oakington Avenue on campus.
55
It is right near the building where you have classes and the kitchen and living room are newly furnished.
56
Wow, that sounds like a pretty good option.
57
Well, it is a cool apartment, but since it's a dormitory, the living room, bathroom, kitchen and washing machine are all shared.
58
It would be nice not to have to buy living room furniture, though.
59
And how much is this one?
60
$400 per month for a bedroom with an air conditioner.
61
For a bedroom without an air conditioner, you would pay less, $340 for it.
62
Yikes!
63
Even with the air conditioner, it sounds really inconvenient to have to share facilities.
64
I'll never cook if I have to walk down the hall to use the kitchen Yeah,
65
that's true Before you hear the rest of the conversation you have some time to look at questions 5 to 10
66
Now listen and answer questions 5 to 10.
67
Anyway, the next place is a two -bedroom on Mead Street.
68
Oh, I like Mead Street.
69
That's off campus, right?
70
Yep, it's pretty cool, but it only has two bedrooms plus a living room and a study.
71
But I want to live together with my two friends.
72
So, you could make the study into a small bedroom if you end up living with them.
73
Also, we guys want a TV and DVD player since we're all so much into movies.
74
Well, this place has a great TV and VCR, but no DVD player.
75
No DVD?
76
That's so weird.
77
Are any other facilities provided?
78
As you said, weird enough, it also comes with a wash basin.
79
Is there a washing machine?
80
I think we need that more than just a wash basin.
81
I'm afraid there's no washing machine in the apartment.
82
Wow, that's so old -fashioned.
83
Maybe it's not the best choice for three college guys.
84
How much is it?
85
Well, it's $600 per month, but of course it would be cheaper if you made it into three bedrooms instead of two.
86
And where is the apartment located?
87
It's 2500 Mead Street, where there are a lot of bars.
88
It would be affordable, but it would get pretty noisy, and that sounds really expensive for an old place in a noisy area.
89
How about the last place?
90
This one's on campus in the Devon Close complex.
91
It's a one -bedroom, so it will be a little quieter than the Mead Street place.
92
One -bedroom, huh?
93
That could be good for focusing on my studies.
94
What else does it have?
95
It comes with a living room and a study, and includes a really nice lamp in the study that has a bunch of different settings.
96
You know what else is cool?
97
There's a dining hall downstairs, so all evening meals are free.
98
You can purchase breakfast and lunch, but meals after 6pm are free.
99
Wow, this place sounds too good to be true.
100
Is it really expensive?
101
It's all right.
102
$500 per month, but there's no bathroom.
103
What?
104
No bathroom?
105
Well, there's no bathroom in the apartment, but there's one at the end of the hall.
106
Hmm, thanks.
107
I think now I just have to decide whether I want to live alone or not.
108
Yeah, which one do you prefer?
109
I think I'd choose either this apartment or the one on Beetle Road.
110
OK, you'd better think about it and then you can contact me ASAP fine thanks for your help you're welcome
111
that is the end of section one you now have half a minute to check your answers
112
Now turn to Section 2.

推薦影片
這段影片的口語練習目標
這段房屋中介與學生的對話非常適合雅思口語練習。它聚焦於日常生活中最實用的"租房場景",訓練你聽懂關鍵資訊(如價格、設施)並流暢回應的能力。通過模仿對話中的自然交流節奏,你能突破"啞巴英語"瓶頸,實現從"能說"到"會說"的 fluency 里程碑。
實用表達積累庫
- "I'd settle for almost anything":我差不多什麼都能接受(表達迫切需求時很實用)
- "the hotel is ruining me":住酒店快把我搞垮了(形象描述經濟或生活壓力)
- "on a strict budget":預算很緊張(租房、購物場景高頻短語)
- "Any drawbacks to the house?":這房子有什麼缺點嗎?(禮貌詢問不足,避免踩坑)
這些表達既接地氣又符合雅思口語的實用性要求,記得學以致用哦。
突破發音與節奏的弱點
影片中的對話語速適中,非常適合練習"shadow speak"(影子跟讀法)。你會發現中介說"$435 a month, including internet and utilities"時,"including"的弱讀和"utilities"的重音位置很關鍵。很多學習者容易把"utilities"讀成"yu-TIL-i-ties",其實正確發音是"yoo-TIL-i-teez"。通過看影片學英語並反覆跟讀,你能糾正發音誤區,同時掌握自然的語流節奏。
不妨試試:播放一句暫停,立刻重複,模仿語氣和停頓。堅持一週,你會發現自己的英語發音和流暢度明顯提升。這就是"shadow speak"的魔力,也是提高英語發音的高效方法。
影片中的語法
說話人最常用的結構,並附上影片中的原話:
| 結構 | 影片中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事 | has been done · I've been · has been written |
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的 | has been done · will be played · has been written |
| 定語從句 who / which + 從句 — 補充說明人或事物 | student who wants · example which has |
| “will” 表將來 will + 動詞 — 決定、承諾或預測 | will hear · will see · will be |
什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
