1
Part 3.
2
You will hear two students called Jamie and Martha discussing their environmental science course.
3
First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 26.
4
Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 26.
5
Hi, Martha.
6
Do you have time to talk?
7
We have to submit our evaluations of our course next week, and I thought it'd be useful to discuss what we both think.
8
Good idea.
9
That would help refresh my memory, especially about things we did in previous years.
10
I agree.
11
So let's talk about the modules we took.
12
What about statistics for environmental research?
13
I've always been hopeless with numbers, so I thought that I'd learn a lot.
14
But you know, it wasn't at a high enough level for me.
15
I actually had to do a lot of reading on my own.
16
Me too.
17
I had to get an additional reading list from the tutor.
18
Now, sewage and drainage systems.
19
I wasn't looking forward to that one.
20
Not exactly a pleasant subject,
21
but you know, the module convinced me that it's an essential topic to understand for both cities and rural environments.
22
Right.
23
And in the end, not a boring subject.
24
Not at all.
25
It was quite a revelation.
26
The module on agriculture and food security could have been good.
27
But the assigned readings were only those ancient government publications.
28
And the lecture notes clearly hadn't been updated for years.
29
I know.
30
What about the module on sustainable energy?
31
I really got into the project we had to do to invent something functional.
32
I devised a windmill to power my laptop.
33
Yep, the projects were great.
34
So hands-on, though the personal battery charger I built never really worked.
35
Too bad, but I'm sure you learned a lot nonetheless.
36
I did, and the government policy module.
37
I wish it had included policy in other countries.
38
It was a bit inward-looking, I thought, focused just on this country.
39
I mentioned that to the lecturer, but she said it was best to concentrate on one country in depth at first.
40
Maybe.
41
And there was that module called water management.
42
I must admit, I got lost in the discussion about the issues of groundwater levels and flood risk management, which weren't that essential.
43
You weren't the only one.
44
Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions 27 to 30.
45
Now listen and answer questions 27 to 30.
46
Okay.
47
I thought some aspects of the course organisation were particularly helpful.
48
Can we talk a bit about that? Of course.
49
Actually, I was disappointed that I couldn't take any module whenever I wanted.
50
That's true.
51
But the variety of modules on offer was a strong point and meant I managed to cover a lot of subjects.
52
Me too, more than I expected.
53
I had wanted to finish the course early by doing an extra module each term, which would have been useful,
54
but unfortunately that wasn't allowed.
55
I had to wait to do some modules, which I found hard to schedule,
56
And I think more assigned reading for the modules would have made the lectures easier to follow.
57
That would have been good.
58
But I was pleased that the course organisers were able to provide modules focusing on real-life issues, which we can apply later when looking for jobs.
59
True.
60
And I would have hated it if it had all been theory.
61
What about the written paper we had to do for Dr. Brown?
62
Are there any things we could suggest to improve the way that's handled?
63
Well, I got lots of help from Dr. Brown and his assistant in narrowing down what I wanted to write about.
64
Yes, they stopped me from doing something too ambitious.
65
But choosing a topic right at the beginning of the module was difficult.
66
Maybe he could postpone the decision until halfway through the term.
67
Good idea.
68
I was happy with the word limit for the assignment, though.
69
Well, as usual, I could have written on and on, but the limit made me refine my thoughts, so it was okay in the end.
70
I wish I could have had a session with Dr. Brown after he'd marked my written paper.
71
I know it would be time-consuming, but it would have been really useful.
72
Actually, I was satisfied with Dr. Brown's written feedback.
73
It was amazingly detailed, so I don't think I needed more.
74
But I wish they could arrange sessions where students get together and help each other before submitting their written work.
75
Good idea.
76
If they provided time for that, it would be quite convenient.
77
Right.
78
Now that we've almost finished our course, it's time to think about our career prospects.
79
What type of organization do you hope to work for?
80
That is the end of part three.
81
You now have 30 seconds to check your answers to part three.
82
Part 4
83
Thank you.
84
Thank you.
85
Thank you.

本节课学习内容
本节课通过一段雅思听力对话,练习英语听力理解与口语表达。对话围绕环境科学课程模块展开,涵盖课程评价、模块内容等话题。学习者可通过模仿对话中的语音语调、节奏,提升英语口语流畅度与发音准确性,同时积累学术相关词汇。

练习技巧
该视频对话语速适中,语气自然,适合进行shadow speech练习。建议先完整听一遍对话,熟悉内容;再逐句播放,暂停后立即模仿,注意模仿说话人的重音与停顿,如“the module convinced me that it's an essential topic”中“essential”的重读。对于“sewage”“groundwater”等较难发音的单词,可反复跟读,对比自身发音与原音的差异,逐步提高英语发音。
利用“看YouTube学英语”的优势,结合对话场景进行角色扮演,想象自己是Jamie或Martha,自然说出对话内容,增强英语口语练习的实用性。练习时可录音,对比原音,及时调整语调与节奏,提升口语表达的自然度。坚持shadowing练习,能有效提高听力与口语的同步反应能力。
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。
