Test 1.
2
Now turn to part one.
3
Part 1.
4
You will hear a woman phoning a friend, to get information about a job agency.
5
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 5.
6
Now listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.
7
Hello William!
8
This is Amber.
9
You said to phone if I wanted to get more information about the job agency you mentioned.
10
Is now a good time?
11
Uh, hi Amber.
12
Yes, fine.
13
The agency I was talking about is called Bankside.
14
They're based in Docklands.
15
I can tell you the address now.
16
497 Eastside.
17
OK, thanks.
18
So is there anyone in particular I should speak to there?
19
The agent I always deal with is called Becky Jameson.
20
Let me write that down.
21
Becky!
22
Jameson.
23
J -A -M -I -E -R.
24
S O N.
25
Do you have her direct line?
26
Yes, it's in my contacts somewhere.
27
Right, here we are, 07866510333.
28
I wouldn't call her until the afternoon if I were you.
29
She's always really busy in the morning trying to fill last -minute vacancies.
30
She's really helpful and friendly, so I'm sure it would be worth getting in touch with her for an informal chat.
31
It's mainly clerical and admin jobs they deal with, isn't it?
32
That's right.
33
I know you're hoping to find a full -time job in the media eventually, but Becky mostly recruits temporary staff for the finance sector, which will look good on your CV,
34
and generally pays better too.
35
Yeah, I'm just a bit worried because I don't have much office experience.
36
I wouldn't worry.
37
They'll probably start you as a receptionist or something like that.
38
So what's important for that kind of job isn't so much having business skills or knowing lots of different computer systems, it's communication that really matters,
39
so you'd be fine there and you'll pick up office skills really quickly on the job.
40
It's not that complicated.
41
Okay, good.
42
So how long do people generally need temporary staff for?
43
It would be great if I could get something lasting at least a month.
44
That shouldn't be too difficult.
45
But you're more likely to be offered something for a week at first, which might get extended.
46
It's unusual to be sent somewhere for just a day or two.
47
Right.
48
I've heard the pay isn't too bad.
49
Better than working in a shop or a restaurant.
50
Oh yes, definitely.
51
The hourly rate is about ten pounds, eleven if you're lucky.
52
That's pretty good.
53
I was only expecting to get eight or nine pounds an hour.
54
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, You have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.
55
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
56
Do you want me to tell you anything about the registration process?
57
Yes, please.
58
I know you have to have an interview.
59
The interview usually takes about an hour and you should arrange that about a week in advance.
60
I suppose I should dress smartly if it's for office work.
61
I can probably borrow a suit from Mum.
62
Good idea.
63
It's better to look too smart than too casual.
64
Will I need to bring copies of my exam certificates or anything like that?
65
No, they don't need to see those, I don't think.
66
What about my passport?
67
Oh, yes.
68
They will ask to see that.
69
Okay.
70
I wouldn't get stressed about the interview there.
71
It's just a chance for them to build a relationship with you, so they can try and match you to a job which you'll like.
72
So there are questions about personality that they always ask candidates, fairly basic ones, And they probably won't ask anything too difficult,
73
like what your plans are for the future.
74
Oh, hope not.
75
Anyway, there are lots of benefits to using an agency.
76
For example, the interview will be useful because they'll give you feedback on your performance so you can improve next time.
77
And they'll have access to jobs which aren't advertised.
78
Exactly.
79
Most temporary jobs aren't advertised.
80
And I expect finding a temporary job this way takes a lot less time.
81
It's much easier than ringing up individual companies.
82
Yes, indeed.
83
That is the end of part one.
84
You now have one minute to check your answers to part one.

推薦影片

這部影片適合誰?

這部影片適合正在準備劍橋英語考試、希望提升聽力理解和日常口語能力的學習者,尤其適合 intermediate 水平(中級)的同學。影片中的對話圍繞求職代理展開,內容貼近真實生活場景,能幫助學習者熟悉職場相關詞彙和交流方式,同時訓練捕捉關鍵資訊(如姓名、電話、工作型別等)的能力,非常適合想要提高實用英語技能的人。

值得學習的詞彙和表達

對話中出現了多個實用詞彙和短語,一起來看看:

  • clerical and admin jobs:文職和行政工作。其中 "clerical" 指文書工作,"admin" 是 "administration" 的縮寫,意為行政。
  • temporary staff:臨時員工。"temporary" 表示暫時的,與 "permanent"(永久的)相對。
  • last - minute vacancies:緊急空缺。"last - minute" 指最後一刻的,"vacancies" 是職位空缺。
  • pick up:此處指快速學會。例如 "pick up office skills" 即快速掌握辦公技能。

如何練好發音?

影片中說話者的發音清晰自然,語速適中,非常適合用於 shadow speak(影子跟讀法)練習。以下是兩個關鍵發音要點:

重音位置

注意單詞 "recruits"(招聘)的重音在第二個音節,讀作 /rɪˈkruːts/,而非 /ˈrɪkruːts/。正確的重音能讓你的口語更地道,避免誤解。

連讀技巧

對話中出現 "fill last - minute vacancies" 時,"fill" 和 "last" 之間可以連讀,讀作 /fɪl ˈlɑːst ˈmɪnɪt/,中間的停頓幾乎消失。通過 shadow speak 練習,你能逐漸掌握這種自然的連讀方式,提高英語發音的流暢度。

影子跟讀法(shadow speak)是提升口語的有效方法,建議反覆播放影片,模仿說話者的語調、語速和停頓,堅持練習就能看到進步。記住,練習時不僅要關注單詞發音,還要注意整體的語流節奏,這樣才能真正學好英語。

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
被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的is called · be offered · be sent
用 “should” 提建議 should + 動詞 — 表示應該做的事should speak · should arrange · should dress
過去進行時 was/were + -ing — 過去某一時刻正在進行的動作was talking · was only expecting
比較級 -er than / more … than — 比較兩個事物Better than · easier than

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。
