3
I was hoping to speak to Jack Fitzgerald about renting a cottage.

I'm his wife Shirley and we own the cottages together so I'm sure I can help you.
5
Great.
6
My name's Tom.

Some friends of ours rented Granary Cottage from you last year and they thought it was great.

So my wife and I are hoping to come in May for a week.

What date did you have in mind?
10
The week beginning the 14th, if possible.
11
I'll just check.
12
I'm sorry, Tom, it's already booked that week.
13
It's free the week beginning the 28th, though, for seven nights, In fact, that's the only time you could have it in me.
14
Oh.
15
Well, we could manage that, I think.
16
We'd just need to change a couple of things.
17
How much would it cost?
18
That's the beginning of high season, so it'd be £550 for the week.
19
Ah, that's a bit more than we wanted to pay, I'm afraid.
20
We've budgeted up to £500 for accommodation.
21
Well, we've just finished converting another building into a cottage which we're calling Cherville Cottage.

Chervil.

That's right.

It grows fairly wild around here.

You could have that for the week you want for £480.

Okay, so could you tell me something about it, please? Of course.
29
The building was built as a garage, It's a little smaller than Granary Cottage.

So that must sleep two people as well.

That's right.
32
There's a double bedroom.
33
Does it have a garden?
34
Yes, you get to it from the living room through French doors and we provide two deck chairs.
35
We hope to build a patio in the near future, but I wouldn't like to guarantee it'll be finished by May.
36
Okay.
37
The front door opens onto the old farmyard, and parking isn't a problem.
38
There's plenty of room at the front for that.
39
There are some trees and potted plants there.
40
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time.

It has standard things like a cooker and fridge, I presume.

In the kitchen area there's a fridge freezer, and we've just put in an electric cooker.
43
Is there a washing machine?
44
Yes.
45
There's also a TV in the living room which plays DVDs too.
46
The bathroom is too small for a bath, so there's a shower instead.

Unless you spend half the day in it.

What about heating?
52
It sometimes gets quite cool at that time of year.

We can provide all the wood you need for it.
55
It smells so much nicer than coal, and it makes the room very cosy.

We've got one in our own house.
57
That sounds very pleasant.
58
Perhaps we should come in the winter to make the most of it.
59
Yes.

We find we don't want to go out when we've got the fire burning.
61
There are some attractive views from the cottage which I haven't mentioned.

There's a famous stone bridge, It's one of the oldest in the region and you can see it from the living room.
63
It isn't far away.
64
The bedroom window looks in the opposite direction and has a lovely view of the hills and the monument at the top.

I'd like to book it, please.
67
Would you want to deposit?

練習技巧
在進行英語口語練習時,可以嘗試使用影子跟讀的方法(英語影子跟讀)。此影片中的對話速度適中,適合初中級學習者使用。首先,反覆聆聽對話,注意發音、語調和節奏。接下來,嘗試模仿講話者的語音、語速以及情感表達。可以暫停影片,逐句進行模仿,確保每個單詞的正確發音。做到這一點後,嘗試與原聲音訊進行對比,以找出需要改進的地方。無論是在家裡還是在其他地方練習,保持聲音清晰自然是提高口語能力的關鍵。記住,通過不斷的練習,你的英語口語水平會逐步提升,雅思口語練習將變得更加輕鬆自如。
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 | We've budgeted · we've just finished · we've just put |
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的 | was built · be finished |
| 比較級 -er than / more … than — 比較兩個事物 | smaller than · nicer than |
| 現在進行時 am/is/are + -ing — 此刻或近期正在發生的事 | are hoping · we're calling · You're coming |
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。
