94
Bye.
95
That is the end of Section 1.
96
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
97
Now turn to section 2.
98
Section 2.
99
You will hear a guide giving a tour of a park.
100
First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 14.
101
Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 14.
102
Welcome to all of you.
103
Can everybody see and hear me?
104
Good.
105
I'm Sally, your guide for this tour of the Bicentennial Park.
106
I hope that you're all wearing your most comfortable shoes and that you can keep up the pace.
107
So, let's get underway on our tour around this wonderful park.
108
I'll start today with some general background information.
109
There used to be a lot of factories in this area until the 1960s.
110
Creating the park required the demolition of lots of derelict buildings on the site,
111
so most of the exciting park space all around you was originally warehouses and storehouses.
112
The idea of building a public park here was first discussed when a property developer proposed a high-rise housing development,
113
but the local community wasn't happy.
114
If the land was to be cleaned up, they wanted to use the site for recreation.
115
Residents wanted open space for outdoor activities rather than housing or even an indoor sports complex.
116
Now, to the Bicentennial Park itself.
117
It has two areas, a nature reserve and a formal park with man-made features and gardens.
118
The tall blue and white building in front of us is called the Tower
119
and is the centre point for the formal gardens.
120
It stands 12 metres high, so follow me up the stairs to where we can take advantage of the fantastic views.
121
Before you hear the rest of the tour, you have some time to look at questions 15 to 20.
122
Now listen and answer questions 15 to 20.
123
well here we are at the top of the tower
124
and we're going to look at the view from each direction
125
out to the east the large buildings about a kilometer away
126
are on the olympic site there's an indoor arena for gymnastics a stadium for track
127
and field and a swimming pool for races and synchronised swimming, and also diving.
128
If you look carefully down there, you can see the train lines.
129
The Olympic site has its own station to encourage the use of public transport.
130
There is also a car park, but it only holds a limited number of cars.
131
The formal park has some specially created water features.
132
If you look out here to the south, you can see a circular ornamental pond.
133
and around to the west you can relax
134
and sit on a bench to smell the flowers
135
and the rose garden and finally up to the north
136
if you look in front of you now there's a lake
137
with a small island in the center you can hire rowing boats at the boat shed
138
which you can't see from here but
139
if you look through the trees you can see the cafe
140
which has lovely views across the water okay let's climb down now.
141
We will go now and have a look at the nature reserve section of the park
142
which has opened up natural wetland to the public.
143
The mangroves have been made more accessible to visitors by the boardwalk built during the park's upgrade.
144
You'd think that people would come here to look at the unusual plant life of the area
145
but in fact it's more often used for cycling and is very popular with the local clubs.
146
This is the far end of the park
147
and over there you can see the frog pond a natural
148
feature here long before the park was designed just next to
149
it we have our outdoor classroom a favorite spot for school
150
parties the area is now most often used by primary schools for biology lessons and finally let's pass by the waterbird refuge.
151
This area is in a sheltered part of the estuary.
152
That's why the park's viewing shelter is a favourite spot for bird watchers who can use it to spy through binoculars.
153
You can watch a variety of waterbirds, but most visitors expect to see black swans when they come to the shelter.
154
You might spot one yourself right now.
155
Well, here we are back at our starting point, the visitor's centre.
156
Now turn to section 3.
157
Section 3.
158
You will hear two students discussing a geography presentation they're going to give.
159
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 26.
160
Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 26.
161
Remind me, Trevor, how long is the presentation?
162
Dr White said three per hour.
163
So about 20 minutes.
164
Well, it'll be 15 minutes per presentation.
165
And five minutes for questions?
166
And is this one going to be assessed?
167
No, not this time round, because it's the first one, you know.
168
Oh, good news.
169
Well, Trevor, what are we going to include?
170
Well, do you think we ought to give some historical background?
171
Oh, no, definitely not.
172
We won't have time.
173
OK, but I think we ought to say something about the geographical location, because not a lot of people know where the islands are.
174
Yes, OK.
175
I'll take notes, shall I?
176
Yeah, that'd be a help.
177
So, geographical location?
178
Then we ought to give an overview of the whole education system.
179
Shouldn't we say something about the economy?
180
You know, agricultural produce, minerals and so forth?
181
Well, Dr White said we shouldn't go into that sort of detail.
182
But it's pretty important when you think about it, you know, because it does influence the education system.
183
Look, let's think about that one later, shall we?
184
Let's see how we're doing for time.
185
OK, so general overview of education. Of course.
186
And then the role of English language.
187
No, that goes in the language policy seminar.
188
Don't you remember?
189
Are you sure?
190
Positive.
191
All right.
192
So, those are the topics we're going to be covering.
193
Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions 27 to 30.
194
Now listen and answer questions 27 to 30.
195
We need to think about what to prepare.
196
Dr White said he wanted us to use plenty of visuals and things, and we might as well try them out when we're not being assessed.
197
Well, the most important thing is the overhead projector.
198
No problem.
199
We'll get that from the media room.
200
Must remember to book it.
201
Well, we'll need a map, of course.
202
Probably two.
203
One of the islands, large scale.
204
And one of West Africa.
205
Well, the West African one is no problem.
206
There's one in the resources room.
207
Oh, yeah, of course, the resources room.
208
The islands are going to be more of a problem.
209
Tell you what, there's a very clear map of Santiago in that tourist brochure I showed you last week.
210
Don't you remember it?
211
Oh, yeah, that's right.
212
We can just use the tourist brochure.
213
We also need statistics on several different things.
214
Literacy rates.
215
Yes, and school places.
216
How about the Encyclopedia?
217
Nah, not up to date enough.
218
Why don't we call the embassy?
219
Oh, someone's enthusiastic.
220
Well, if something's worth doing.
221
I know, it's worth doing well.
222
OK.
223
We can find out statistics on school places from them as well.
224
Might as well.
225
Look, Julie, it's almost time for our tutorials.
226
We can meet again on Monday, but we need to prepare some stuff before then.
227
That is the end of Section 3.
228
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
229
Thank you.
230
Now turn to section 4.
231
Section 4.
232
You will hear part of a lecture about a chemical substance called monosodium glutamate.
233
First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.
234
Thank you.
235
Now listen carefully and answer questions 31 to 40.
236
In today's lecture, I'm going to talk about monosodium glutamate, or MSG, as it's more commonly known.
237
Now, MSG, as you probably know, is a flavor enhancer, which is used particularly in Chinese and Japanese cooking.
238
Today, I am going to explore why it is so popular in these cuisines,
239
and more importantly, how does it enhance the flavor of food.
240
The main reason why MSG is more commonly used in Japanese meals is tradition.
241
For many thousands of years, the Japanese have incorporated a type of seaweed known as kombu in their cooking,
242
as they discovered it had the ability to make food taste better.
243
But it wasn't until 1908 that the ingredient in kombu, which was responsible for the improvement in flavor,
244
was actually discovered to be glutamate by scientists working there.
245
From 1908 until 1956, glutamate was produced commercially in Japan by a very slow and expensive means of extraction.
246
It was in 1956 that the speed of the process was improved
247
and industrial production increased dramatically and still continues to increase to this day.
248
In fact, hundreds of thousands of tons of MSG are produced all over the world today.
249
So, what exactly is MSG?
250
Well, monosodium glutamate contains 78.2% glutamate,
251
12.2% sodium, and 9.6% water.
252
Glutamate is an amino acid that can be found naturally in all protein-containing foods.
253
So this includes food such as meat and cheese.
254
It is widely known that Chinese and Japanese food contains MSG,
255
but many people don't seem to be aware that it is also used in foods in other parts of the world.
256
For example, it is found in commercially made Italian pizzas, in American fast food, and in Britain,
257
MSG is used in things like potato crisps.
258
So how exactly does MSG work?
259
Well in the Western world, we commonly talk of four tastes, and I'm sure you're all familiar with the concepts of sweet,
260
sour, bitter, and salt.
261
Well in 1908, Hikunae Ikeda identified a fifth taste,
262
and it is thought that MSG intensifies this naturally occurring taste in some food.
263
It does make perfect evolutionary sense that we should have the ability to detect
264
or taste glutamate because it is the amino acid which is most common in natural foods.
265
John Prescott, an associate professor at the University of Chicago, suggests that this fifth taste serves a purpose just as the other tastes do.
266
He suggests that it signals to us the presence of protein in food,
267
in the same way that sweetness This indicates that a food contains energy-giving carbohydrates.
268
Bitterness, he says, alerts us to toxins in the food, while sourness warns us of spoilage, and saltiness signals the presence of minerals.
269
So, what else do we know about this fifth taste?
270
That is the end of Section 4.
271
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
272
That is the end of the listening test.
273
In the IELTS test, you would now have 10 minutes to transfer your answers to the listening answer sheet.

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。
