We're going to start off by talking about art and photography.
0:00.00 – 0:03.42 (3.4s)
2
Do you like art?
0:03.40 – 0:04.60 (1.2s)
3
That's interesting.
0:05.14 – 0:06.42 (1.3s)
4
Depends on what.
0:08.16 – 0:09.68 (1.5s)
5
I like cinema, for instance, movies, music, but I don't know too much about paintings or modern art.
0:10.22 – 0:21.52 (11.3s)
6
I'm not too familiar with.
0:20.54 – 0:22.82 (2.3s)
7
So it depends on what kind of art.
0:22.14 – 0:24.50 (2.4s)
8
Do you like to take photographs?
0:24.82 – 0:26.54 (1.7s)
9
Yes.
0:26.82 – 0:27.68 (0.9s)
10
I wouldn't say the photographs are good, but I do enjoy taking pictures.
0:28.50 – 0:32.74 (4.2s)
11
Yeah.
0:33.26 – 0:33.44 (0.2s)
12
Do you prefer to take photos of yourself or other things?
0:33.92 – 0:37.30 (3.4s)
13
Of other things.
0:37.80 – 0:38.50 (0.7s)
14
It's kind of hard to take pictures of yourself unless it's a selfie and that's limited.
0:39.24 – 0:45.30 (6.1s)
15
So pictures of other things mostly.
0:45.88 – 0:48.46 (2.6s)
16
Now let's talk about animals.
0:48.78 – 0:50.76 (2.0s)
17
Do you like animals?
0:51.22 – 0:52.06 (0.8s)
18
I love animals.
0:52.46 – 0:53.32 (0.9s)
19
Land animals, friendly, so to speak, animals.
0:54.36 – 0:57.54 (3.2s)
20
not insects and not anything from the ocean.
0:57.60 – 1:01.16 (3.6s)
21
What is your favorite animal?
1:01.16 – 1:02.94 (1.8s)
22
Probably a dog.
1:02.94 – 1:05.24 (2.3s)
23
Dogs, for obvious reasons you can keep them as pets.
1:05.24 – 1:09.26 (4.0s)
24
In terms of like non-domesticated animals, probably jaguars.
1:09.26 – 1:13.70 (4.4s)
25
Do you have any animals in your home as pets?
1:13.70 – 1:17.50 (3.8s)
26
Yes, I have two dogs.
1:17.50 – 1:19.94 (2.4s)
27
They're both from the shelter, the animal shelter, the rescues.
1:19.94 – 1:24.06 (4.1s)
28
Yeah, I've always had pets.
1:24.06 – 1:27.58 (3.5s)
29
Our family really likes keeping animals around.
1:27.58 – 1:30.30 (2.7s)
30
Now let's talk about bags.
1:30.30 – 1:32.44 (2.1s)
31
What type of bags do you like?
1:32.44 – 1:34.54 (2.1s)
32
I prefer purses that are a little bit on the larger side, just because I like to put everything of my life in my purse.
1:34.54 – 1:46.62 (12.1s)
33
So it ends up weighing maybe 20 kilos.
1:46.62 – 1:53.10 (6.5s)
34
Yeah, larger bags, probably structured, larger bags.
1:53.10 – 1:57.64 (4.5s)
35
How often do you carry a bag when you go out?
1:57.64 – 2:00.70 (3.1s)
36
Every day.
2:00.70 – 2:01.62 (0.9s)
37
I think that's the case for most women.
2:01.62 – 2:03.42 (1.8s)
38
I think they carry a bag every even if you go down to the grocery or the supermarket, you take your bag with you usually, right?
2:03.42 – 2:11.86 (8.4s)
39
What sort of bags do women like to buy?
2:11.86 – 2:15.76 (3.9s)
40
It depends.
2:16.42 – 2:17.72 (1.3s)
41
It depends on your outfit.
2:17.72 – 2:20.64 (2.9s)
42
It depends on where you're going.
2:20.64 – 2:22.34 (1.7s)
43
For the day, if you're going to the office, you probably want something bigger that can fit your laptop, your phone, paperwork, everything that you might need during the day.
2:22.34 – 2:35.60 (13.3s)
44
If it's nighttime, you'd want something smaller, like a clutch, something more sleek, elegant.
2:37.74 – 2:43.64 (5.9s)
45
So it depends.
2:45.82 – 2:46.52 (0.7s)
46
If you're traveling, you'd want a much bigger bag that's able to fit.
2:46.10 – 2:50.14 (4.0s)
47
Not just you, but all of your family's stuff as well.
2:50.76 – 2:53.86 (3.1s)
48
So everything.
2:53.36 – 2:54.86 (1.5s)
49
Women like all kinds of bags.
2:54.50 – 2:56.98 (2.5s)
50
That's why we have so many of them.
2:56.56 – 2:58.20 (1.6s)
51
Now let's talk about birthdays.
2:58.64 – 3:00.78 (2.1s)
52
What did you usually do on your birthday when you were a child?
3:00.92 – 3:04.64 (3.7s)
53
So when I was a kid, when I was a child in school, we had a uniform.
3:05.26 – 3:11.86 (6.6s)
54
Everybody wore a uniform to school.
3:11.60 – 3:13.44 (1.8s)
55
So when it was your birthday, it was the one day of the year that you were allowed to wear whatever you wanted.
3:13.30 – 3:19.66 (6.4s)
56
So it was a big deal.
3:19.64 – 3:21.32 (1.7s)
57
I mean, at least I would pick out my outfit like two months in advance.
3:21.04 – 3:24.86 (3.8s)
58
It would be like a little dress, like a princessy frock, matching shoes, matching accessories for your hair.
3:25.14 – 3:32.74 (7.6s)
59
And then you would take some kind of chocolate or candy to school.
3:33.40 – 3:37.06 (3.7s)
60
And then you could take like a period off and go and give the candy out to other teachers and other kids in the school.
3:36.70 – 3:44.90 (8.2s)
61
And we looked forward to it every year.
3:44.84 – 3:47.16 (2.3s)
62
It was the highlight to get to not have to wear the uniform, to wear whatever you wanted, and to basically be able to skip class and go out and hand out chocolates because it's your birthday.
3:46.72 – 3:59.26 (12.5s)
63
How do you normally celebrate your birthday now?
3:59.04 – 4:02.48 (3.4s)
64
Very differently.
4:03.22 – 4:04.42 (1.2s)
65
Everyone's allowed to wear whatever they want now.
4:04.42 – 4:06.58 (2.2s)
66
So it's kind of not, doesn't have the same charm.
4:06.58 – 4:09.66 (3.1s)
67
It depends.
4:09.66 – 4:11.56 (1.9s)
68
I like to do a little dinner with my friends, something low key.
4:11.56 – 4:17.24 (5.7s)
69
I'm not a very big party person.
4:17.24 – 4:20.54 (3.3s)
70
So dinner is usually good.
4:20.54 – 4:23.20 (2.7s)
71
Followed by probably like a games night or a movie night at home or at the cinema.
4:23.20 – 4:29.44 (6.2s)
72
Something low key.
4:29.44 – 4:31.70 (2.3s)
73
Do you think it's important to give someone a card on their birthday?
4:32.04 – 4:35.56 (3.5s)
74
Like a handwritten, like a birthday card?
4:35.98 – 4:38.12 (2.1s)
75
I think so, yes, because I'm quite sentimental and emotional.
4:40.10 – 4:46.50 (6.4s)
76
So I prefer more emotional, sentimental gifts.
4:46.26 – 4:51.54 (5.3s)
77
So I think if someone takes the time to write something by hand for you, I think that, I mean I hold on to stuff like that so I think it's a very nice thoughtful present to give someone on their birthday.
4:51.68 – 5:05.84 (14.2s)
78
The first time I met a new friend, so I'm gonna go way back, it was my first day of school, kindergarten, and I met a girl named Amanpreet Kaj.
5:05.30 – 5:17.00 (11.7s)
79
She, we were about, I think we just turned four years old.
5:18.08 – 5:22.06 (4.0s)
80
We met obviously in kindergarten, first year of school.
5:22.28 – 5:27.74 (5.5s)
81
What I liked about her when I first saw her, I mean, we were sitting together with the teacher made us sit next to each other.
5:29.26 – 5:35.58 (6.3s)
82
And she had this long hair and it was like sectioned into two parts and it was just braided all the way down.
5:36.24 – 5:46.12 (9.9s)
83
And she had the cutest face I've ever seen.
5:47.22 – 5:49.08 (1.9s)
84
She had this little fluffy marshmallow like face.
5:48.64 – 5:52.80 (4.2s)
85
I guess that's all it takes when you're a kid to want to be friends with somebody.
5:52.56 – 5:57.42 (4.9s)
86
And then I tried to.
5:58.86 – 6:00.38 (1.5s)
87
So there's like this little thing that kids do where they put their thumb out to show other kids that I want to be your friend.
6:00.76 – 6:07.76 (7.0s)
88
And then if you don't want to be friends with them, you do this.
6:08.96 – 6:11.64 (2.7s)
89
It's like a silly little thing.
6:11.20 – 6:13.56 (2.4s)
90
So I did this to her.
6:13.40 – 6:15.16 (1.8s)
91
I put my thumb out to say, hey, do you want to be friends?
6:15.10 – 6:17.72 (2.6s)
92
And she was like this.
6:18.78 – 6:20.24 (1.5s)
93
And I was heartbroken.
6:19.76 – 6:21.56 (1.8s)
94
I was like, how can she know who want to be my friend?
6:21.60 – 6:25.00 (3.4s)
95
And then I saw her again the next day and the day the next day after that and the day after that.
6:27.64 – 6:33.64 (6.0s)
96
And then eventually we ended up becoming best friends.
6:33.22 – 6:36.80 (3.6s)
97
She did it back to me, obviously, at some point.
6:36.30 – 6:39.18 (2.9s)
98
She was my first best friend that I ever had in life.
6:39.12 – 6:43.90 (4.8s)
99
She was from Punjab, which is a part of India.
6:44.28 – 6:47.22 (2.9s)
100
And her mom used to make the most amazing, it's called paratha.
6:49.78 – 6:53.88 (4.1s)
101
It's like this stuffed bread.
6:54.28 – 6:57.22 (2.9s)
102
It's like they put potato and spices into a flatbread.
6:57.94 – 7:02.86 (4.9s)
103
And my mom used to make something called seera, which is sweet semolina situation.
7:03.44 – 7:10.68 (7.2s)
104
That's the end of the two minutes.
7:10.58 – 7:12.42 (1.8s)
105
Okay.
7:12.04 – 7:12.80 (0.8s)
106
We've been talking about a friend that you met and we're going to now talk about friends at school.
7:13.12 – 7:19.72 (6.6s)
107
How important is it for children to have lots of friends at school?
7:19.34 – 7:23.66 (4.3s)
108

110
To sign up for that for free, all you have to do is just click the link in the description.
7:45.14 – 7:49.88 (4.7s)
111
Thanks very much and let's get back to the video.
7:49.16 – 7:52.04 (2.9s)
112
It depends, I would say.
7:52.18 – 7:53.94 (1.8s)
113
I would perhaps think that quality is more important than quantity.
7:53.82 – 7:59.50 (5.7s)
114
So I wouldn't say that the objective should be to make as many friends as you can or to be popular.
7:59.12 – 8:05.94 (6.8s)
115
as much as the objective should be to build meaningful friendships with people.
8:07.28 – 8:12.30 (5.0s)
116
That could be one person, that could be five people, that could be ten people.
8:12.64 – 8:17.16 (4.5s)
117
Situational, I would say.
8:17.10 – 8:18.74 (1.6s)
118
Yeah, so it's not so much how many friends you have.
8:19.42 – 8:23.22 (3.8s)
119
It's not as important to have a lot of friends as it might be to have people that you can trust, that you can kind of take with you in life for a longer term.
8:24.66 – 8:37.48 (12.8s)
120
Do you think it is wrong for parents to choose which friends their children have?
8:38.24 – 8:42.40 (4.2s)
121
Again, that's a tricky one.
8:45.16 – 8:46.60 (1.4s)
122
Now, when I answer these questions, I'm thinking back to real-life situations.
8:47.44 – 8:53.38 (5.9s)
123
And in some cases, I have seen parents interfering and trying to make those decisions for their children where they were right to do so because the child was in bad company and they were too naive or too I mean I guess they were just too naive to see that that situation was not right for them but the parent obviously was able to identify that my child's in bad company so in those cases I would say that your parents are able to read a dangerous situation better but there's also the flip side where everybody kind of does make bad decisions.
8:54.08 – 9:35.06 (41.0s)
124
Your parents made bad decisions, you made bad decisions.
9:35.22 – 9:37.52 (2.3s)
125
And the way that you learn from them is to have a negative experience and then find your way out of it.
9:37.20 – 9:45.60 (8.4s)
126
So I would say that I can see certain situations, whether it's bad relationships, bad friendships, when you're younger, not relationships when you're younger, friendships when you're younger.
9:47.18 – 9:58.32 (11.1s)
127
Sometimes it's necessary to have that experience so that you know firsthand how to deal with that situation.
9:59.12 – 10:06.46 (7.3s)
128
And you may not be able to get that experience if your parents always shield you from every single thing that can go wrong.
10:06.74 – 10:14.10 (7.4s)
129
So I can kind of see, depends on the situation, I would say.
10:14.38 – 10:18.02 (3.6s)
130
Now let's talk about making new friends.
10:18.54 – 10:20.76 (2.2s)
131
Can you think of any disadvantages of making new friends online?
10:21.38 – 10:24.72 (3.3s)
132
Disadvantages of making new friends online?
10:25.70 – 10:27.34 (1.6s)
133
I think there's more disadvantages to making new friends.
10:27.86 – 10:33.32 (5.5s)
134
I mean, there was a show recently that came out on Netflix called Tinder Swindler.
10:33.88 – 10:38.44 (4.6s)
135
The thing is with most of what we see online isn't real, whether it's social media or even news for that matter.
10:39.04 – 10:48.42 (9.4s)
136
Everything is kind of edited and monitored to present a certain kind of image.
10:50.00 – 10:55.08 (5.1s)
137
So if you meet somebody online and you know nothing about them, they can really present any version of reality or a completely curated, sometimes dishonest form of their reality to you.
10:56.38 – 11:15.40 (19.0s)
138
So it's a very dangerous game to play.
11:16.34 – 11:19.50 (3.2s)
139
Friendships or relationships?
11:20.06 – 11:21.06 (1.0s)
140
Both.
11:21.90 – 11:22.12 (0.2s)
141
Friendships.
11:22.84 – 11:23.26 (0.4s)
142
Friendships.
11:23.34 – 11:23.80 (0.5s)
143
Friendships.
11:23.32 – 11:23.88 (0.6s)
144
Yeah.
11:24.70 – 11:24.94 (0.2s)
145
It's somebody you know nothing about is a very, everything can go wrong there, right?
11:25.46 – 11:32.18 (6.7s)
146
Would you say it is harder for people to make new friends as they get older?
11:33.56 – 11:37.52 (4.0s)
147
Yes.
11:38.38 – 11:38.70 (0.3s)
148
I think it becomes harder for people to make friends as they get older.
11:40.20 – 11:45.92 (5.7s)
149
I think adults are perhaps a little bit more structured.
11:47.46 – 11:54.36 (6.9s)
150
I mean, the older that you get, the more set you get in your ways, your routine, where you work, your family, your gym.
11:55.32 – 12:04.74 (9.4s)
151
For children, it's very easy for children to interact with other children.
12:04.56 – 12:08.80 (4.2s)
152
Like if you put two kids in a room and three seconds are talking to each other without any restrictions are talking about all of their family secrets and everything, you know, they're comfortable.
12:08.74 – 12:18.40 (9.7s)
153
But with adults, obviously, people tend to be more filtered when they interact with other adults.
12:18.40 – 12:25.38 (7.0s)
154
Also, I think if you've been friends from the time that you were a child with somebody, you've lived through so many life events together that that kind of bond is hard to build with someone that you meet in your mid thirties because you've just lost so much time that you're learning something.
12:25.38 – 12:44.90 (19.5s)
155
You're learning about them from scratch, where they went to school, about their family, about their relationships, about their siblings.
12:45.20 – 12:52.50 (7.3s)
156
So, yeah, I think it's a it's not impossible.
12:53.06 – 12:56.24 (3.2s)
157
You can make a lot of incredible friendships later in life, but it's probably harder to come by than if you were a kid in play school.
12:56.66 – 13:07.80 (11.1s)
158
So what I'm going to do now is give you feedback on each part, because each part is a little bit different, give you some tips on how to perform as well or even better next time.
13:08.12 – 13:20.26 (12.1s)
159
And then there are four marking criteria, fluency and coherence, grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary.
13:20.24 – 13:28.48 (8.2s)
160
And I will give you a band for each of those and tell you what band.
13:28.82 – 13:33.28 (4.5s)
161
The top is band nine.
13:33.28 – 13:34.72 (1.4s)
162
So let's see if you can get right at the top.
13:35.04 – 13:37.52 (2.5s)
163
So thank you for making it this far in the video.
13:37.88 – 13:40.32 (2.4s)
164

172
If not, enjoy the rest of this free video.
14:19.44 – 14:22.24 (2.8s)
173
So part one, it's just normal everyday questions and you answered those very, very naturally.
14:22.04 – 14:29.10 (7.1s)
174
Again, it was like talking to a friend or a colleague and the length of your answers was also quite good.
14:29.26 – 14:35.14 (5.9s)
175
This is not a criticism and it's just kind of who you are as a person.
14:34.94 – 14:39.14 (4.2s)
176
You're a very friendly, chatty person who wants the other person to interact.
14:38.66 – 14:43.06 (4.4s)
177
So you're often like, girls like buying bags, right?
14:43.00 – 14:45.88 (2.9s)
178
That is fine in normal conversation.
14:45.72 – 14:48.08 (2.4s)
179
If you were to do the test for real, the examiner could be quite stone faced because they're doing their job.
14:48.00 – 14:54.44 (6.4s)
180
They're not being unfriendly.
14:54.32 – 14:56.10 (1.8s)
181
They just have a job to do.
14:55.84 – 14:57.56 (1.7s)
182
And they're trying to think about your grammar and your vocabulary and your pronunciation and your fluency.
14:57.14 – 15:02.48 (5.3s)
183
And there's a lot going on there.
15:02.02 – 15:03.82 (1.8s)
184
And for them, they cannot start to interact with you.
15:04.38 – 15:08.08 (3.7s)
185
And on test day, you might not get a very friendly examiner like me.
15:08.34 – 15:13.68 (5.3s)
186
I don't know whether I was friendly or not.
15:13.64 – 15:16.30 (2.7s)
187
But they might be like, you know, don't do that.
15:16.36 – 15:19.84 (3.5s)
188
Or some of them could be having a bad day and they just like, don't ask questions.
15:19.38 – 15:24.62 (5.2s)
189
Now I have experienced with, not myself, but other students have said when they did that, thought the examiner was criticizing them or being rude, they took that to heart and thought, oh my god, I've failed my test.
15:24.92 – 15:39.12 (14.2s)
190
And they went from doing very, very well to everything fell apart.
15:39.00 – 15:44.96 (6.0s)
191
Because if you feel nervous, if you're uncomfortable with someone, then it really affects your fluency.
15:44.62 – 15:50.62 (6.0s)
192
You can climb up.
15:50.28 – 15:51.60 (1.3s)
193
You don't want to really show your language and who you are.
15:51.44 – 15:55.34 (3.9s)
194
You don't want to, because one of the great advantages or great strengths that you have is you're very open about who you are as a person.
15:55.40 – 16:07.12 (11.7s)
195
And that's great because it allows you to speak in a very fluent way.
16:07.52 – 16:11.36 (3.8s)
196
If you go and do the test for real, probably don't interact with the examiner as much.
16:11.64 – 16:16.80 (5.2s)
197
Part two, you did a great job because you just picked a real event, a real person from your life.
16:17.30 – 16:22.68 (5.4s)
198
And it's much easier to talk about that.
16:22.14 – 16:24.64 (2.5s)
199
Some students try to pick something high level or impressive to impress the examiner.
16:25.00 – 16:30.46 (5.5s)
200
There's no such thing.
16:30.82 – 16:31.74 (0.9s)
201
The best thing to do is pick something from your real life because that's easy to talk about.
16:32.52 – 16:36.48 (4.0s)
202
Part three, you did very, very well because you really extended your answers.
16:36.96 – 16:40.96 (4.0s)
203
Again, you use real situations from your own life.
16:41.54 – 16:44.08 (2.5s)
204
You don't have to do that, but it really did help you develop your answers.
16:44.38 – 16:47.60 (3.2s)
205
In terms of the scores, pronunciation is pretty much perfect.
16:48.02 – 16:52.34 (4.3s)
206
The examiner will be thinking about, can I understand every word this person is saying?
16:52.38 – 16:57.24 (4.9s)
207
100% I can understand every syllable.
16:57.92 – 17:00.30 (2.4s)
208
Then the examiner will be thinking about high level pronunciation features, such as your intonation.
17:00.40 – 17:06.16 (5.8s)
209
So our voices go up, our voices go down.
17:05.94 – 17:08.74 (2.8s)
210
You speak like a native English speaker in that respect.
17:08.52 – 17:12.16 (3.6s)
211
Sentence stress is when we emphasize certain words.
17:12.44 – 17:16.28 (3.8s)
212
This is my phone, not your phone.
17:16.04 – 17:18.80 (2.8s)
213
So you emphasize certain words at times.
17:19.06 – 17:20.90 (1.8s)
214
Again, you do that 100% naturally.
17:20.52 – 17:23.24 (2.7s)
215
And then you use connected speech.
17:22.72 – 17:24.86 (2.1s)
216
The way native English speakers talk, we wouldn't say, I want to talk about my friend.
17:25.22 – 17:31.74 (6.5s)
217
You'd say, I want to talk about my friend.
17:31.36 – 17:33.56 (2.2s)
218
The flow of the language.
17:33.16 – 17:34.88 (1.7s)
219
So absolutely perfect, no problems there.
17:34.28 – 17:36.88 (2.6s)
220
Coherence and fluency.
17:36.60 – 17:38.38 (1.8s)
221
Coherence is did you answer the questions?
17:37.84 – 17:40.34 (2.5s)
222
Did you develop them enough?
17:40.20 – 17:41.92 (1.7s)
223
You did that 100% of the time.
17:41.92 – 17:44.54 (2.6s)
224
And then fluency is, did you speak without any Unnatural pausing.
17:44.20 – 17:49.96 (5.8s)
225
You did pause at times, but the reason why you paused is important.
17:49.96 – 17:54.64 (4.7s)
226
So in the last, I think it was the second last question, you were talking about adults and you were saying their lives are more structured.
17:54.94 – 18:03.20 (8.3s)
227
So you weren't trying to think of the correct vocabulary because your English isn't good enough.
18:03.20 – 18:08.84 (5.6s)
228
You were trying to just formulate your thoughts and come up with the appropriate precise word, which you did.
18:08.84 – 18:15.08 (6.2s)
229
So that demonstrates to the examiner that you have a very high level of vocabulary.
18:15.08 – 18:19.10 (4.0s)
230
Because if you were, because you're trying to think of the word, what's the word, so when people don't really know the language, then they would stop.
18:19.52 – 18:27.80 (8.3s)
231
And also because you approach this not as a test, but more as a conversation, and you are very open and talk about your life in a very open way, that really helps with fluency.
18:28.02 – 18:40.54 (12.5s)
232
So again, top marks for fluency and coherence.
18:40.06 – 18:43.74 (3.7s)
233
Grammar, I didn't hear a single grammar mistake.
18:44.14 – 18:47.02 (2.9s)
234
The examiner will be thinking about the accuracy of your grammar, did you make any mistakes, and the range of your grammar.
18:47.06 – 18:52.82 (5.8s)
235
So if I talk to you about a birthday party in the past, did you use the appropriate past tenses?
18:52.82 – 18:57.74 (4.9s)
236
And then I ask you about, well, what do you do today?
18:58.32 – 19:00.48 (2.2s)
237
Did you switch tenses?
19:01.04 – 19:02.06 (1.0s)
238
Did you use the appropriate grammatical structures and tenses to talk about each situation?
19:02.30 – 19:07.20 (4.9s)
239
And again, you did that perfectly.
19:08.18 – 19:09.48 (1.3s)
240
Vocabulary, very natural.
19:10.24 – 19:12.74 (2.5s)
241
You use a nice mixture of just normal, everyday words, which everybody uses, and you also use idiomatic language very, very well.
19:11.76 – 19:21.32 (9.6s)
242
So as you can see, you're using very natural English.
19:20.72 – 19:24.76 (4.0s)
243
And overall, you would get a perfect band line, which is very rare.
19:25.26 – 19:30.32 (5.1s)
244
Oh, wow.
19:31.20 – 19:31.68 (0.5s)
245
Very, very rare.
19:31.94 – 19:32.76 (0.8s)
246
Okay.
19:33.46 – 19:33.72 (0.3s)
247
Well done.
19:34.44 – 19:35.32 (0.9s)
248
Thank you.
19:35.22 – 19:35.66 (0.4s)

重要词汇和短语
- Art (艺术): 指人类创造的各类文化作品，包括绘画、音乐、电影等。
- Photography (摄影): 捕捉瞬间的艺术，通常涉及到拍摄和编辑照片。
- Pet (宠物): 供人类陪伴的动物，像狗和猫。
- Birthday (生日): 一年中庆祝个人出生的日子，常常伴随聚会和礼物。
- Handwritten card (手写卡片): 以手写方式制作的祝贺卡，表达情感和祝福。
- Sentimental (情感的): 对擅长产生情感的物品或回忆较为看重。
本视频练习技巧
在观看和跟读此视频时，学习者应注意以下几点技巧以提高英语口语能力：
- 语速: 视频中的对话以自然的语速进行，建议学习者逐渐跟上语速，在理解意思后挑战自我。
- 口音: 关注视频中说话者的口音和语调，模仿其发音，以提高自己的发音准确性。
- 话题难度: 本课涉及的主题与日常生活息息相关，学习者可以在日常交流中积极运用相关词汇，增强自信心。
通过反复练习，学习者将显著提升他们的英语口语流利度和表达能力，为雅思口语考试做好充分准备。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
如何在ShadowingEnglish上有效练习
- 选择您的视频： 挑选一段语音清晰、自然的YouTube视频。TED演讲，BBC新闻，电影片段，播客或雅思口语范例都很好。将URL粘贴到搜索栏中。从较短的视频（短于5分钟）以及您真正感兴趣的内容开始——兴趣是最重要的导师。
- 先听，理解上下文： 第一次听的时候，将速度保持在1倍速并仅仅倾听。还不要尝试重复。专注于理解其含义，收集新词汇，并注意讲话人如何强调单词，连读声音及使用停顿。
- 设置跟读模式：
- 等待模式：选择
+3s或+5s——在每句话播放完毕后，视频会自动暂停以便您有时间大声重复它。如果您想完全控制并在每次重复后由您自己点击下一步，请选择手动。 - 字幕同步：YouTube字幕有时会在音频前或后略微出现。使用
±100ms使它们完美对齐以助您准确跟读。
- 等待模式：选择
- 大声跟读（核心练习）： 这是真正发生改变的一步。当一个句子播放出来立刻——或在暂停期间——大声、清晰且自信地重复出来。千万不要只是张张嘴：要模仿说话者的准确节奏、重音、音高和连读。力求听上去就像说话者的影子，而不仅是逐字背诵。使用重复功能多次练习同一个句子，直到感觉自然为止。
- 提高难度： 当练习段落变得相对舒适后，就去挑战自我。将速度增加至 <code>1.25x</code> 或甚至 <code>1.5x</code> 以训练高速语言反射。或者将等待模式调整为 <code>关闭</code> 以进行连续跟读——这是最进阶同样收益最大的模式。持续的每日15–30分钟的练习将可以在几周内产生可见的效果。
