Test 4.
2
This is the IELTS listening test.
3
You will hear a number of different recordings and you will have to answer questions on what you hear.
4
There will be time for you to read the instructions and questions and you will have a chance to check your work.
5
All the recordings will be played once only.
6
The test is in four parts.
7
At the end of the test,
8
you will be given 10 minutes to transfer your answers to the answer sheet.
9
Now turn to part one.
10
Part one.
11
You will hear a man phoning to inquire about a cleaning service for his apartment.
12
First, you have some time to look at questions one to five.
13
Now listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.
14
Hello, Easy Life Cleaning Services, Jacinta speaking.
15
Oh, hello.
16
I'm looking for a cleaning service for my apartment.
17
Do you do domestic cleaning?
18
Sure.
19
Well, it's just a one-bedroom flat.
20
Do you have a basic cleaning package?
21
Yes.
22
For a one bedroom flat,
23
we're probably looking at about two hours for a clean,
24
so we'd do a thorough clean of all surfaces in each room and polish them where necessary.
25
Does your apartment have carpets?
26
No, I don't have any,
27
but the floor would need cleaning.
28
Of course.
29
We'd do that in every room.
30
And we'd do a thorough clean of the kitchen and bathroom.
31
Oh, OK.
32
Then we have some additional services,
33
which you can request if you want.
34
So for example, we can clean your oven for you every week.
35
Actually, I hardly ever use that.
36
But can you do the fridge?
37
Sure.
38
Would you like that done every week?
39
Yes, definitely.
40
And would ironing clothes be an additional service you can do?
41
Yes, of course.
42
It wouldn't be much, just my shirts for work that week.
43
That's fine.
44
And we could also clean your microwave if you want.
45
No, I wipe that out pretty regularly,
46
so there's no need for that.
47
We also offer additional services that you might want a bit less often, say every month.
48
So, for example, if the inside of your windows need cleaning,
49
we could do that.
50
Yes, that'd be good.
51
I'm on the 15th floor,
52
so the outside gets done regularly by specialists.
53
but the inside does get a bit grubby.
54
And we could arrange for your curtains to get cleaned if necessary.
55
No, they're okay.
56
But would you be able to do something about the balcony?
57
It's quite small and I don't use it much,
58
but it could do with a wash every month or so.
59
Yes, we can get the pressure washer onto that.
60
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
61
you have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.
62
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
63
Now if you're interested, we do offer some other possibilities to do with general maintenance.
64
For example, if you have a problem with water and you need a plumber in a hurry,
65
we can put you in touch with a reliable one who can come out straight away.
66
And the same thing if you need an electrician.
67
Right, that's good to know.
68
I've only just moved here,
69
so I don't have any of those sorts of contacts.
70
And I don't know if this is of interest to you,
71
but we also offer a special vacuum cleaning system
72
which can improve the indoor air quality of your home by capturing up to 99% of all the dust in the air.
73
So if you're troubled by allergies,
74
this can make a big difference.
75
Right.
76
In fact, I don't have that sort of problem,
77
but I'll bear it in mind.
78
Now, can you tell me a bit about your cleaning staff?
79
Of course.
80
So all our cleaners are very carefully selected.
81
When they apply to us,
82
they have to undergo a security check with the police to make sure they don't have any sort of criminal background.
83
And of course, they have to provide references as well.
84
Then if we think they might be suitable for the job,
85
we give them training for it.
86
That lasts for two weeks,
87
so it's very thorough, and at the end of it they have a test.
88
If they pass that, we take them on,
89
but we monitor them very carefully.
90
We ask all our clients to complete a review of their performance after every visit and to email it to us,
91
so we can pick up any problems straight away and deal with them.
92
OK, well, that all sounds good.
93
And will I always have the same cleaner?
94
Yes, we do our best to organise it that way,
95
and we usually manage it.
96
Good, that's fine.
97
Right, so I'd like to go ahead and...
98
Thank you.

背景与上下文
在本次视频中,您将收听一段关于清洁服务的对话。对话主要涉及一位男士打电话询问清洁服务的细节,目的是为他的公寓寻找合适的清洁方案。清洁服务提供者通过简洁的对话,回答了男士关于服务内容、价格及其他额外服务的提问。这类场景在日常生活中非常常见,因此理解和掌握相关用语对于提升日常交流能力尤为重要。
日常交流中的五个常用短语
- Do you do domestic cleaning? - 你们提供家庭清洁服务吗?
- Do you have a basic cleaning package? - 你们有基础清洁套餐吗?
- Actually, I hardly ever use that. - 事实上,我几乎不使用那个。
- Would you like that done every week? - 你希望每周都进行清洁吗?
- Yes, that'd be good. - 是的,这样很好。
逐步跟读指南
为了更好地提高英语发音和口语能力,采用英语影子跟读的方法是非常有帮助的。在收听本视频时,请按照以下步骤进行:
- 先听后看:开始时,先收听对话并了解大意。然后,查看对应的文本,确认每一句话的意思。
- 逐句跟读:选择一小段对话,先听一次,然后暂停,试着模仿对话中的发音和语调。这是一种有效的shadowspeak方法,能帮助提高发音及语感。
- 注意重音与节奏:观察说话者重音的放置以及语调的变化,尝试在跟读时复现这些音调特征,这将有助于声音的自然流畅。
- 重复练习:每天抽出几分钟时间进行重复练习,直到能流利模仿对话的内容为止。同时也可以利用各类shadowing site进行反复练习。
- 录音与对比:在练习后的最后一步,推荐录下自己的声音与原声对比,这样可以清楚地了解自己的进步与不足。
通过以上步骤,并结合日常生活中常用的短语,您将能够有效地提高英语听说能力,变得更加自信。坚持下去,您会发现自身的口语水平有显著提升!
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。
