1
Section 3.
2
You will hear a student called John talking to a professor about a design competition he is entering.
3
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 25.
4
Thank you.
5
Um, hello Professor.
6
I'm John Wishart.
7
I'm working on my entry for the Global Design Competition.
8
My tutor said you might be able to help me with it.
9
Ah yes, I got a copy of your drawings.
10
Come in and tell me about it.
11
What sort of competition is it?
12
Well, it's an international design competition and we have to come up with a new design for a typical domestic kitchen appliance.
13
I see.
14
And are there any special conditions?
15
Does it have to save energy, for example?
16
Actually, that was the focus in last year's competition.
17
This year's different.
18
We have to adopt an innovative approach to existing technology, using it in a way that hasn't been thought of before.
19
I see, that sounds tricky.
20
And what kitchen appliance have you chosen?
21
Well, I decided to choose the dishwasher.
22
Interesting.
23
What made you choose that?
24
Well, they're an everyday kitchen appliance in most Australian houses, but they're all pretty boring and almost identical to each other.
25
I think some people will be prepared to pay a little extra for something that looks different.
26
That's a nice idea.
27
I see you've called your design the rock pool.
28
Why is that?
29
Basically because it looks like the rock pools you find on a beach.
30
The top is made of glass so that you can look down into it.
31
And there's a stone at the bottom.
32
Is that just for decoration?
33
Actually, it does have a function.
34
Instead of pushing a button, you turn the stone.
35
So it's really just a novel way of starting the dishwasher?
36
That's right.
37
It's a really nice design, but what makes it innovative?
38
Well, I decided to make a dishwasher that uses carbon dioxide.
39
In place of water and detergent?
40
How will you manage that?
41
The idea is to pressurise the carbon dioxide so that it becomes a liquid.
42
The fluid is then released into the dishwasher where it cleans the dishes all by itself.
43
Sounds like a brilliant idea.
44
Your system will totally do away with the need for strong detergents.
45
So what happens once the dishes are clean?
46
Well, to allow them to dry, the liquid carbon dioxide and the waste materials all go to an area called the holding chamber.
47
That's where the liquid is depressurised and so it reverts to a gas.
48
Then the oil and grease are separated out and sent to the waste system.
49
It sounds like you've thought it all out very thoroughly.
50
So what happens to the carbon dioxide once the process is complete?
51
Not wasted, I hope?
52
Actually, that's where the real savings are made.
53
The carbon dioxide is sent back to the cylinder and can be used again and again.
54
What a terrific idea!
55
Do you think it will ever be built?
56
Probably not, but that's OK.
57
I'm sure a lot of positive things will come out of your design.
58
Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions 26 to 30.
59
Now listen and answer questions 26 to 30.
60
Now you seem to have thought about everything, so what exactly did you need me to help you with?
61
Well, my design has made it to the final stage of the competition
62
and in a few months' time I have to give a presentation.
63
And that's the part I was hoping you could help me with.
64
Right, well that should be easy enough.
65
What have you managed to do so far?
66
Well, I've got detailed drawings to show how it will work and I've also written a 500 word paper on it.
67
I see.
68
Well, if you want to stand a good chance of winning, you really need a model of the machine.
69
Yes, I thought I might, but I'm having a few problems.
70
What's the main difficulty so far?
71
Ah, let me guess, is it the materials?
72
Yes.
73
I want it to look professional, but everything that's top quality is also very expensive.
74
Look, projects like this are very important to us.
75
They really help lift our profile.
76
So why don't you talk to the university about a grant?
77
Oh.
78
I can help you fill out the application forms, if you like.
79
Oh, that would be great.
80
You'd better show me this paper you've written as well.
81
For a global competition such as this, you need to make sure the technical details you've given are accurate and thorough.
82
Oh, that would be a great help.
83
Is there anything else I can do?
84
Well, I'm really nervous.
85
That is the end of Section 3.
86
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
87
Now turn to section 4.

本課內容介紹
在本節課中,您將通過聆聽學生約翰與教授之間的對話,練習英語發音和口語技巧。這段對話圍繞著一個關於廚房電器的設計比賽展開。您將瞭解到約翰的設計理念、創新思維,以及如何在交流中表達複雜的概念。這是一個提升您雅思口語練習的絕佳機會,同時也是提高英語發音的好方式。
關鍵詞彙與短語
- design competition - 設計比賽

練習技巧
為了提高您的英語口語練習效果,建議您採用以下方法進行影子練習(shadowspeaks)。首先,聆聽影片中的對話,注意講話的速度和語調。約翰的語速相對較快,因此您可以先逐句聆聽,將每一句話分段理解。接著,模仿他的發音和語氣,以確保您在練習時與原音相似,這將顯著提高您的英語發音能力。
在練習時,您可以先將對話的內容熟悉之後,再跟隨音訊進行重複。藉助這種shadow speech技巧,您將能夠更自信地表達自己,掌握必要的口語流利度。建議您將影片的節奏調整為適合自己的速度,逐步加快,以提升口語的規範性和流暢性。
最後,您可以與他人進行對話練習,嘗試在不同場合中使用新學到的詞彙和短語。這種互動練習將極大地幫助您在雅思口語考試中表現得更出色,同時也有助於提升日常交流能力。
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 | hasn't been thought · you've called · you've thought |
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的 | been thought · is made · is then released |
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。
