1
3. You will hear two urban planning students discussing bike-sharing schemes in different cities.
2
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 24.
3
Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 24.
4
Now that we've done all the research into bike sharing schemes in cities around the world, we need to think about how we're going to organise our report.
5
Right.
6
I think we should start by talking about the benefits.
7
I mean, it's great that
8
so many cities have introduced these schemes where anyone can pick up a bike from dozens of different locations
9
and hire it for a few hours.
10
It makes riding a bike very convenient for people.
11
Yes, but the costs can add up, and that puts people on low incomes off in some places.
12
I suppose so.
13
But if it means more people in general are cycling rather than driving, then because they're increasing the amount of physical activity they do,
14
it's good for their health.
15
Okay, but isn't that of less importance?
16
I mean, doesn't the impact of reduced emissions on air pollution have a more significant effect on people's health?
17
Certainly in some cities, bike sharing has made a big contribution to that, and also helped to cut the number of cars on the road significantly.
18
Which is the main point.
19
Exactly.
20
But I'd say it's had less of an impact on noise pollution, because there are still loads of buses and lorries around.
21
Right.
22
Shall we quickly discuss the recommendations we're going to make?
23
In order to ensure bike-sharing schemes are successful?
24
Yes.
25
OK.
26
Well, while I think it's nice to have really state-of-the-art bikes with things like GPS, I wouldn't say they're absolutely necessary.
27
But some technical things are really important, like a fully functional app, so people can make payments and book bikes easily.
28
Places which haven't invested in that have really struggled.
29
Good point.
30
Some people say there shouldn't be competing companies offering separate bike-sharing schemes, but in some really big cities, competition's beneficial.
31
And anyway, one company might not be able to manage the whole thing.
32
Right.
33
Deciding how much to invest is a big question.
34
Cities which have opened loads of new bike lanes, at the same time as introducing bike-sharing schemes, have generally been more successful,
35
but there are examples of successful schemes where this hasn't happened.
36
What does matter, though, is having a big publicity campaign.
37
Definitely.
38
If people don't know how to use the scheme or don't understand its benefits, they won't use it.
39
People need a lot of persuasion to stop using their cars.
40
Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions 25 to 30.
41
Now listen and answer questions 25 to 30.
42
Shall we look at some examples now and say what we think is good or bad about them?
43
I suppose we should start with Amsterdam, as this was one of the first cities to have a bike-sharing scheme.
44
Yes, there was already a strong culture of cycling here.
45
In a way, it's strange that there was such a demand for bike-sharing, because you'd have thought most people would have used their own bikes.
46
And yet it's one of the best-used schemes.
47
Dublin's an interesting example of a success story.
48
It must be because the public transport system's quite limited.
49
Not really.
50
There's no underground, but there are trams and a good bus network.
51
I'd say price has a lot to do with it.
52
It's one of the cheapest schemes in Europe to join.
53
But the buses are really slow.
54
Anyway, the weather certainly can't be a factor.
55
No, definitely not.
56
The London scheme's been quite successful.
57
Yes, it's been a really good thing for the city.
58
The bikes are popular and the whole system is well maintained, but it isn't expanding quickly enough.
59
Basically, not enough's been spent on increasing the number of cycle lanes.
60
Hopefully that'll change.
61
Yes.
62
Now, what about outside Europe?
63
Well, bike-sharing schemes have taken off in places like Buenos Aires.
64
Hmm.
65
They built a huge network of cycle lanes to support the introduction of the scheme there, didn't they?
66
It attracted huge numbers of cyclists, where previously there were hardly any.
67
An example of good planning.
68
Absolutely.
69
New York is a good example of how not to introduce a scheme.
70
When they launched it, it was more than ten times the price of most other schemes.
71
More than it costs to take a taxi.
72
Crazy.
73
I think the organisers lacked vision and ambition there.
74
I think so too.
75
Sydney would be a good example to use.
76
I would have expected it to have grown pretty quickly here.
77
Yes.
78
I can't quite work out why it hasn't been an instant success like some of the others.
79
It's a shame, really.
80
I know.
81
OK, so now we've thought about all this...
82
That is the end of part three.
83
You now have half a minute to check your answers.

上下文與背景
在本段對話中，兩名城市規劃專業的學生討論了不同城市的腳踏車共享計劃。隨著城市逐漸面對交通與環境問題，腳踏車的普及被視為一種有效解決方案。他們探討了這種模式的利弊，以及成功實施這些計劃的關鍵因素。這為學習者提供了關於城市規劃、公共交通以及環境保護等方面的寶貴談論素材，特別是在提升聽力和口語交流能力方面。
日常交流的五個重要短語
- 很方便：騎腳踏車非常方便，尤其在繁忙的城市中。
- 投資決策：決定投資多少是一個巨大的問題。
- 健康的選擇：騎腳踏車可以增加身體活動，有益健康。
- 減少汽車使用：如果能有更多人騎腳踏車，駕車人數就會減少。
- 宣傳活動：如果人們不知道如何使用共享計劃，他們就不會使用它。
逐步影子跟讀指南
通過本次對話進行英語影子跟讀是一種高效的學習方法，下面是逐步指南：
- 聽音訊：首先，認真聽整段對話，理解大意，特別是腳踏車共享的背景。
- 挑選短句：從對話中選擇一些短句，比如“騎腳踏車很方便”，作為跟讀的目標。
- 反覆聆聽：重複播放這些選定的短句，注意發音、語調和節奏。
- 模仿發音：嘗試模仿音訊中的發音，儘量做到精準，注意重音和連音。
- 記錄與反饋：錄下自己的聲音並與原音對比，找出需要改進的地方，持續練習，以提高英語發音和流利度。
通過這樣的shadow speak訓練，您將能夠大幅度提高自己的英語口語能力，尤其是在涉及城市交通和環境討論這樣的實際場景中。堅持練習，您會發現自己在日常對話中變得越來越自信！
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。
