Now turn to section 2.

Section 2.
3
You will hear a man who owns a holiday home talking on the phone to a woman who is staying there.
4
First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 13.
5
Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 13.
6
Hello?
7
Hi, it's Laura Carlton here.
8
We've just arrived at the holiday flat,
9
but I can't get the hot water and heating to work.
10
Oh right, that's easy.
11
Don't worry, in the upstairs cupboard you'll find the water heater.
12
You'll see three main controls on the left at the bottom of the heater.
13
The first one, the round one on the far left,
14
is the most important one for the heating and hot water.
15
It's the main control switch.
16
Make sure it's in the on position.
17
The switch itself doesn't light up,
18
but the little square below will be black if the switch is off.
19
That's probably what's happened.
20
It's got switched off by mistake.
21
The middle one of these three controls,
22
you'll see it's slightly larger than the first one, controls the radiators.
23
If you feel cold while you're there and need the radiators on,
24
this needs to be turned to maximum.
25
The last of the three controls,
26
the one on the right,
27
is usually on about a number four setting,
28
which for the water in the taps is usually quite hot enough.
29
Below the heating controls in the middle is a small round plastic button.
30
If there isn't enough water in the pipes,
31
sometimes the heater goes out.
32
If this happens, you'll need to press this button to reset the heater.
33
Hold it in for about five seconds and the heater should come on again.
34
Then there's a little square indicator under the third knob that's a kind of alarm light.
35
It'll flash if you need to reset the heater.
36
It sounds complicated.
37
I'm sure you won't have any problems with it.
38
There should be some more instructions on the side of the heater.
39
Call me back if you can't make it work.
40
Okay.
41
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
42
you have some time to look at questions 14 to 20.
43
Now listen and answer questions 14 to 20.
44
While you're on the phone,
45
we haven't managed to find a few things we need,
46
like extra pillows for the beds and some washing powder.
47
Is there any here?
48
Pillows, yes.
49
If you look in the cupboard,
50
the large white one upstairs,
51
to the left of the bathroom door,
52
there should be four or five on the top shelf.
53
And if you want to do some washing,
54
there's some powder for that,
55
um, probably by the back door.
56
There's a kind of shelf there above the sink.
57
In fact, I'm sure there's some there in a large blue box.
58
You need about half a cupful for each wash.
59
Oh, and that reminds me.
60
The spare key to the back door is hanging on a hook on the wall by the sitting room window.
61
Please make sure to put it back when you've used it.
62
The previous guest lost it in the garden and I had to get another one made.
63
And if you have any trouble with the lamps,
64
you'll find some spare bulbs in a large cardboard box.
65
It's on top of the washing machine with all kinds of useful things in it.
66
Oh, and another thing I forgot to mention when we last spoke.
67
Yes?
68
I've left you a local map,
69
so you'll be able to find your way around easily.
70
It shows the whole area.
71
I put it in the top drawer of the chest under the TV in your bedroom.
72
There's a whole file of local information in there too.
73
Thanks.
74
What about visiting the town?
75
Can you give us any advice?
76
Yes.
77
You'll need to take the car.
78
It's too far to walk from the flat, really.
79
You have to pay to leave your car in all the car parks now, I'm afraid.
80
I like the one that's by the station best,
81
and you can walk to the town centre from there in five minutes.
82
That's where all the best restaurants are.
83
But if you want a takeaway,
84
the Italian one does really good pasta and pizzas.
85
Call 7362-81 for that one,
86
or 766-119 for the Chinese.
87
They're both good, and they'll both deliver to the flat.
88
As for places to visit,
89
yes, do go and see the Railway Museum.
90
The exhibition is small, but really good.
91
It gets very crowded on Sundays,
92
so I suggest you visit it on a quieter day,
93
later in the week, but not on Thursdays, which is market day.
94
You won't find anywhere to park.
95
And it's also the only day of the week when they're not open.
96
Anything else?
97
Not for the moment, thanks.
98
That is the end of section 2.

關於本課
在本課中,學習者將通過聽取關於熱水器的對話,提高他們在英語環境中的理解能力。通過這段對話,您將練習聽力並模擬發音,尤其在涉及與居住相關的日常用語時。這是提高英語發音和雅思口語練習的絕佳機會,幫助您增強自信心並在實際情況下應用英語口語。
關鍵詞彙與短語
- 水加熱器 (water heater) - 裝置用於加熱水。
- 控制開關 (control switch) - 控制裝置開關的裝置。
- 暖氣片 (radiators) - 加熱室內空氣的裝置。
- 重置 (reset) - 將裝置設定回初始狀態。
- 指示燈 (indicator light) - 用於顯示裝置狀態的燈。
- 額外的枕頭 (extra pillows) - 除了基本提供的枕頭外的附加枕頭。
- 洗衣粉 (washing powder) - 用於清洗衣物的清潔劑。
練習技巧
在本影片中,您會聽到一位男士與一位女士就熱水器的使用進行交流。練習時,請使用shadowing技巧:跟隨對話進行重複,以達到提高英語發音的效果。建議您採取以下步驟:
- 首次收聽時,專注於理解對話內容,標記出不清楚的部分。
- 接下來,使用慢速在shadowing site上重複說出每一句話,確認每個詞的發音。
- 每次跟讀時,儘量模仿說話者的語調和節奏,注意聲調的抑揚頓挫。
- 如果發現節奏過快,可以將播放速度調整至適中,便於準確跟讀。
- 最後,嘗試在日常生活中使用這些關鍵詞彙,在實際場景中進行英語口語練習。
通過這種方法,您不僅可以提升對對話的理解,還可以在雅思口語練習中表現得更加自信!
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 just arrived · haven't managed · I've left |
| 定語從句 who / which + 從句 — 補充說明人或事物 | man who owns · Thursdays, which is |
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。
