1
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 24.
2
Now listen and answer questions 21 to 24.
3
Hello, Dr. Green.
4
I'm here to talk to you about my work placement.
5
Oh, yes.
6
It's Holly, isn't it?
7
Yes.
8
So, which work placement have you chosen?
9
I decided to go for the Orion Stadium placement.
10
The event I'll be managing is one where I'm helping to set up a sports competition for primary school children.
11
Yep, that's always a popular placement, even though it can be tougher than you think, working with children.
12
I know, but it's the fresh air that attracts me.
13
Organising something indoors doesn't have the same appeal, even though it might be fun.
14
OK, so obviously safety is going to be one of your key concerns for this event?
15
Yes, I've already thought about that.
16
I'll need to make sure none of the equipment's damaged.
17
Ah, well, you'll be working with schools, so the equipment will be their responsibility.
18
However, the grounds and what goes on there will be yours.
19
Oh, I see.
20
That'll include keeping everyone within the boundary once they're in their kit and on the field?
21
Exactly.
22
You'll need to inspect areas like changing rooms as well, for anything someone can trip over.
23
But your main priority will be not to lose anyone.
24
Right.
25
I'll need staff to help with that.
26
And don't forget about the spectators.
27
I was thinking that many of them will be parents who could help run the event.
28
I wouldn't rely on that.
29
They'll be more interested in filming their children than volunteering.
30
I'll need to make sure they don't interfere with events doing that.
31
And that's not always easy, especially when a proud parent's trying to get a snap of their child and you want them to move elsewhere.
32
OK.
33
What about the scheduling?
34
With sporting events, there are all sorts of things that can alter the timetable, like rain for instance, though so far we've always been lucky with that.
35
Yeah, and I was thinking about what to do if someone got hurt as well.
36
I know that last year that caused a terrible delay.
37
You have to be prepared for such things.
38
Oh, what if a match ends in a draw?
39
Do you let the teams keep going until someone wins?
40
That'll be up to you.
41
And again, you need to plan for it.
42
Right.
43
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 25 to 30.
44
Now listen and answer questions 25 to 30.
45
Now, the aim of your work placement is to give you the opportunity to develop the skills that an events manager needs.
46
So let's talk about those a bit.
47
Well, I think my communication skills are pretty good.
48
I can talk on the phone to people and book venues and that kind of thing.
49
Good.
50
Just remember it isn't only about what you say.
51
If you meet someone face to face and want to persuade them to be a sponsor, for example...
52
Oh, I'll dress up for that, sure.
53
Good.
54
Let's go on to think about your organisational skills.
55
You're working in a very people-based industry, and that means things won't always go to plan.
56
I guess it's being prepared to make changes that matters.
57
That's right.
58
You may have to make an on-the-spot change to a timetable because of a problem you hadn't anticipated.
59
Just do it, OK?
60
How's your time management these days?
61
I'm working on it.
62
I'm certainly better when I have a deadline, which is why this work suits me.
63
Yes, but it's how you respond as that deadline approaches.
64
I know I've got to look calm, even if I'm in a panic.
65
Just think to yourself, no one must know I'm under pressure.
66
Yeah, even though I'm multitasking like crazy.
67
Another skill that events managers need is creativity.
68
Often your client has what we call the big picture idea, but it's up to the events manager to think of all the fine points that go to making it work.
69
Right.
70
So I need to listen carefully to that idea and then fill in all the gaps.
71
That's right.
72
And you'll have a team working under you, so another key skill is leadership.
73
Your team may have lots of ideas too, but you've got to make the ultimate choices.
74
Do we have refreshments inside or out, for example?
75
Isn't it better to be democratic?
76
It's a nice idea, but you have the ultimate responsibility.
77
So believe in what you think best.
78
Be prepared to say, yes, that's a good idea, but it won't work here.
79
I see what you mean.
80
What about the networking side of things?
81
I know it's an area that a lot of students worry about, because we don't have much experience to offer others.
82
But even without it, you can still be an interesting person with useful ideas, and the more people you impress, the better.
83
I guess that will help me when I apply for a real job.
84
Exactly.
85
Think ahead.
86
Remember what your ambitions are and keep them in mind.
87
Definitely.
88
That is the end of part three.
89
You now have half a minute to check your answers.

對話場景:職場實習溝通
這段影片中的對話展現了學生與導師討論實習安排的真實場景,涉及活動策劃、安全管理、時間排程等職場溝通內容。通過這類貼近生活的對話,學習者能掌握實用的英語表達,提升職場英語應用能力,同時也是練習“英語影子跟讀”的優質素材。
實用表達與搭配
- work placement:實習崗位。例:“I decided to go for the Orion Stadium placement.”(我選擇了獵戶座體育場的實習崗位。)
- key concern:關鍵問題。例:“safety is going to be one of your key concerns”(安全將是你的關鍵問題之一)
- trip over:絆倒。例:“inspect areas... for anything someone can trip over”(檢查區域是否有會讓人絆倒的東西)

影子跟讀挑戰:提升英語發音
現在就用“shadowspeak”技巧練習這段對話!選擇影片中2-3句長度的片段,播放後立即跟讀,注意模仿語音、語調和節奏。重點關注“it's the fresh air that attracts me”這類強調句的重讀,以及“organising something indoors”的連讀。每天練習5分鐘,堅持一週,你會發現發音更自然,聽力理解也更清晰。這就是“看影片學英語”的高效之處——在真實語境中提升語言能力。
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。
