Section 1.
2
You will hear a telephone conversation between a musician and a man working in a music agency.
3
Hello, Music Alive.
4
How can I help you?
5
Hi, I've just moved to the area and I saw your advert.
6
I wanted to find out about your services.
7
Sure, what would you like to know?
8
Well, I've got a number of questions if that's okay.
9
Have you got a few minutes? Of course.
10
Can I make a note of your name?
11
Yes, I'm Jim.
12
Jim Granley.
13
Thanks.
14
And do you represent every type of musician?
15
Can you tell me a bit about that?
16
Well, we're basically a networking agency for musicians,
17
but we don't actually find you work.
18
We have all our members on our database,
19
the type of music they play,
20
and also we can put people in touch if they want to form a band, for example.
21
Is there a lot of live music here?
22
Yes, and venues contact us when they need musicians,
23
etc. We deal with modern music,
24
especially rock, which is what most people seem to enjoy around here.
25
But we do also represent some jazz musicians.
26
We don't accept classical music, I'm afraid.
27
No, that's fine.
28
What do you play?
29
Guitar and violin, and a bit of flute.
30
As I'm new here, I thought you could help me get in touch with people.
31
I see.
32
Sure.
33
We actually have a newsletter I could send you
34
that would give you a good idea of what we do and how you can benefit from joining.
35
The latest one came out this week.
36
Would you like me to send you a copy?
37
That would be great.
38
Is it weekly?
39
No, every month.
40
Weekly would be too much work, I think.
41
Right.
42
And what are the costs for joining and becoming a member?
43
Is it expensive?
44
I'm on a tight budget.
45
You and every other musician in the region.
46
No, we do everything to keep costs down because we know what it's like.
47
We're pretty much all musicians ourselves too.
48
So to join is just £35 and that's a one-off payment.
49
Oh actually that's the discounted rate for young musicians under 18s.
50
The standard rate is £45.
51
Unfortunately I'm over 18.
52
And how about joining?
53
Can I join when I want?
54
Now, for example?
55
Or do you have a limit on numbers?
56
No, you can join anytime.
57
We don't have a limit on the numbers of members we can have.
58
The more the merrier, in fact.
59
Our membership's gone up recently from 700 to 750.
60
That's good.
61
And your ad says you also have facilities there that musicians can use.
62
Can you explain a bit about that?
63
Sure.
64
Well, it's not huge, but we do have a couple of rooms where you can rehearse.
65
They're soundproof.
66
And we've just opened a studio, a small one.
67
And it's already proving popular with bands that want to send demo tapes to venues and record labels.
68
Wow, that sounds brilliant!
69
And is that free?
70
Guess not.
71
No, that's extra.
72
But we do have some free services.
73
For example, we can offer legal advice if you need it,
74
for contracts and things like that.
75
Pretty useful stuff, you know.
76
Great!
77
So if I'm interested, what's the next step?
78
How do I become a member?
79
Well, simple really.
80
Just send us a letter with your contact details,
81
and a recording made within the last couple of months.
82
That'll give other members an idea of what you play.
83
And where are you based?
84
We're at 707 Kipax Street, Marbury.
85
How do you spell Kipax?
86
It's K-I-P-P-A-X.
87
And is there an email address?
88
Yes, it's music.talent at bsu.co.uk.
89
Talent as in the word?
90
Yes.
91
Right.
92
Section 2 You'll hear the organiser of a fishing competition giving a talk to people participating in the event.
93
Hello everyone and welcome to the Albany Fishing Competition.
94
I'm going to give you some information you'll need for the next two days.
95
Right, let's talk about registration.
96
You'll need to head to the registration desk before the event starts.
97
If you're here to compete rather than just watch,
98
you'll have already paid your entrance fee online and you will have been given a competitor number.
99
But to fully complete your registration in the competition,
100
we'll need to see some form of identification today.
101
So make sure you show that at the desk,
102
otherwise you won't be properly entered.
103
Right, so what do you get for your entrance fee?
104
This is a fully catered competition.
105
So whenever you're hungry, either today or tomorrow,
106
just go down to the dining tent.
107
As for things necessary for fishing,
108
you know, your hooks, rods,
109
all your gear, I'm sure you've brought all that with you.
110
And if you fancy fishing from a boat,
111
you'll need to cover the cost of petrol.
112
Okay, now, if you want to fish in this country,
113
you must have a fishing license and have it with you.
114
If you don't have one,
115
don't worry, You can always go online and they'll issue you one immediately.
116
We wanted to be able to sell them here at the competition,
117
but the council wouldn't allow it, sadly.
118
I think it's also possible to call the Department of Fisheries,
119
but they send them by post,
120
so obviously you won't get that in time now.
121
OK, so the competition starts today and ends on Sunday evening.
122
At 5.30pm you will all have to stop fishing
123
and at 6pm exactly the judges will start weighing the fish
124
to see how heavy they are in order to choose the winners.
125
So you'll need to be in the judging area before then.
126
The prize giving will happen later in the evening.
127
Right, have a look at your maps and I'll point out the important places.
128
First, the registration area.
129
To get to it, go to the roundabout in the middle of your map.
130
From there, take the road that heads to the east.
131
You'll find the registration desk on that road.
132
It's a nice shady area surrounded by trees.
133
OK, if you're planning to fish from the shore tomorrow,
134
then there's a specially designated area for you.
135
The shore fishing area is in one particular spot,
136
you can't just go anywhere on the coastline.
137
You'll find the area directly to the north of the skate park.
138
If you're planning to fish from a boat,
139
you'll need to go to the boat launching area.
140
To reach it, you should go to the roundabout and take the road that's on the right.
141
Follow that road to the beach and that's where you launch your boat.
142
When the competition is over,
143
you need to take your catch to the judging area so we can determine who the winner is.
144
To get there, head out from the car park and take the first road on your left.
145
Go past the first aid tent and the judging area will be set up down there.
146
Meals will be served in the dining area.
147
To get there, you'll need to go to the roundabout and take the road that leads west.
148
Follow that road and just where there's a sharp bend,
149
you'll find where you can eat.
150
If you keep going, you'll come to a lighthouse.
151
If you're lucky enough to win,
152
or you just want to see the winners get their prizes,
153
you'll need to head to the prize-giving area.
154
It's north of the roundabout, past the playground.
155
The prize-giving area's at the end of that road, right on the beach.
156
OK.
157
Question 3.
158
You will hear two first-year art students called Max and Abby talking about their end-of-year art exhibition. So, Abby,
159
we have to prepare our individual displays for the end-of-year exhibition
160
to showcase all the work we've done for the first year of our art degree.
161
Yeah, Max, I've been thinking about how to put it all together.
162
I'm excited about letting my friends and family see all the stuff I've produced.
163
Me too.
164
Actually, I'm really keen to see the work of the other students on our course.
165
I mean, it'll be great to see all the finished displays.
166
But we've seen what they've been doing throughout the year already, really.
167
Anyway, what about getting feedback on our exhibition from our tutor?
168
I wonder what that'll be like.
169
Mmm, I'm a bit nervous about that part.
170
Mmm, I hope our stuff ends up looking as good as some of the displays in last year's exhibition.
171
Yeah.
172
Do you remember that display of printed textiles?
173
Fantastic mixtures of silk and wool,
174
all coloured with natural dyes.
175
Yeah, I can't actually remember that.
176
What sticks in my mind are those ten wooden reproductions one student made,
177
all of different types of transport,
178
little cars and trains and stuff.
179
Yes, it was really delicate work and much harder to do than if he'd tried to construct them out of metal.
180
So, our tutor asked us to come up with a name for our display which reflects the work we've done.
181
What have you gone for?
182
Well, most of what I've done has focused on the countryside,
183
so I've been thinking of things connected to that.
184
A lot of my larger pieces are views of farmland.
185
That's not a particularly memorable name, though.
186
I've gone for Mother Nature in the end,
187
though I did think about the name Seasons,
188
as the fields are shown at different times over the farming year.
189
Oh, OK.
190
Do you think it's going to be challenging putting our displays together?
191
Well, I've pretty much come to a conclusion about which pieces I'll include now.
192
I'll have to miss out some of my preparatory drawings for
193
the bigger pieces to make sure my best work fits into the space we've been allocated.
194
I'm more concerned about how long it will take me to put everything in place.
195
We've got a day and a half.
196
That'll be plenty.
197
Hmm, we'll see.
198
What about writing the summary of our work?
199
It's for people who visit the exhibition to read and I'm absolutely certain they will.
200
It explains the reasons behind our work and they'll want to know what it all means.
201
We've got a strict word limit to stick to,
202
but I've got so much to say it won't be easy to say it in so few words.
203
Hmm, so what about other organizational stuff?
204
We'll need good lighting for one thing.
205
The technical guys are doing that, aren't they?
206
Yeah.
207
One thing to do is copy a load of comment forms so people can write what they think of the exhibition.
208
Hopefully they'll be kind.
209
I'm sure they will.
210
I don't know about the journalists who've been invited though.
211
They might not be quite as nice to us.
212
Well, fingers crossed.
213
You never I don't know.
214
So, our tutor suggested visiting a few exhibitions to look at the way work is presented
215
and to give us a few ideas about improving and displaying our own work.
216
Yeah, I liked the On the Water exhibition.
217
The way the artist used the brush strokes in the oil painting to create a sense of movement was amazing.
218
Mmm, it takes a long time to develop skill like that.
219
Maybe we'll get there one day.
220
What I liked about the City Life exhibition was the fact that,
221
although the paintings themselves were of busy places,
222
the display itself wasn't crowded at all.
223
Perhaps the fact that the paintings were actually quite small was what created a more open feeling to the exhibition.
224
Yeah, though the way they were arranged wasn't especially unusual.
225
And then there was the Faces exhibition.
226
Yeah, I mean, painting people's portraits isn't a new thing.
227
But what I did like was the way the artist managed to reproduce the exact tones of the skin
228
and hair of the people in the pictures.
229
And the last exhibition we went to see was moods.
230
Hmm, I expected that to show emotions.
231
People laughing, crying, whatever.
232
But it was about plants.
233
You don't tend to think of trees and flowers having feelings.
234
And I'm not sure they do.
235
But it certainly seemed that way in the pictures.
236
Not the most obvious choice of subject, that's for sure.
237
Anyway, I guess we'd better get on with it.
238
Section 4.
239
You will hear part of a student presentation about a conservation project on the Florida coast of the United States.
240
Today I'm going to be talking about the first year of a regeneration project in a mangrove forest.
241
Mangrove forests are found along river estuaries and coastlines and are important
242
because they prevent flooding by acting as a barrier between the land and sea sea.
243
The mangrove trees have special roots which can breathe and allow them to survive in thick, airless mud.
244
They are also a very important habitat for wading birds,
245
fish and other animals.
246
In the area where the project is taking place,
247
there have been a number of problems since the area was first settled over 100 years ago.
248
Many of the mangrove trees were initially burnt as firewood by local farmers.
249
The mangrove forests were also poisoned by settlers' farming methods
250
because the farmers used fertilizer to increase crop yields and this started to seep into the water,
251
eventually killing part of the mangrove forest.
252
Farming in the area wasn't successful,
253
and what was left of the mangrove forest area wasn't valued by local people as crops couldn't be grown there.
254
And so what happened was that the area started to be used as somewhere to dump trash.
255
Action was urgently needed to protect the mangrove forest and prevent flooding,
256
and so the mangrove regeneration project was set up.
257
The conservationists involved decided to construct a sand barrier around the forests.
258
But unfortunately, this proved to be ineffective.
259
The only way forward appeared to be to grow new mangroves from seed.
260
Several species of mangrove inhabit the forests in this area of the United States,
261
but it is the gray mangroves that we are concerned with here.
262
The seed of this plant is about the size of an almond,
263
and most seeds fall only when they are fully ripe.
264
The Mangrove Regeneration Project first began three years ago.
265
The first set of seedlings was planted in small pots and left to germinate in a hothouse.
266
The plants thrived, and large roots appeared at the bottom of the pots.
267
Ideally, these seedlings should have been conditioned with increasingly salty water before being planted in the sea.
268
They had, in fact, only been watered with rainwater.
269
As the plants weren't used to a saline environment,
270
it was decided to plant them out on the south side of a small island nearby.
271
It was hoped that this would allow them to get used to salt water gradually,
272
since this part of the island was flooded every day at high tide.
273
There were over 100 plants planted in this particular spot,
274
and it was necessary to protect them not from the large number of wading birds which visit the area looking for food,
275
but from the large rabbit colony living in the area.
276
The process for the second set of seedlings was completely different.
277
Young seedlings were collected from the forests and then taken to a new site.
278
The seedlings were then planted in the seabed behind old mangrove roots for protection.
279
However, this method did not prove very successful,
280
and the vast majority of these seedlings were washed away in a storm.
281
Luckily, the first set of seedlings survived,
282
and this method is the one which the project will continue to use in the future.
283
That is the end of the listening test.

练习技巧
在进行英语影子跟读的练习时，建议您根据视频的语速和语调进行模仿。首先，请放慢视频的速度，以便您能够更清楚地听到每一个单词的发音。接着，尝试跟随录音的节奏进行朗读。您可以重复某些短语，直到您能够自如地说出它们为止。此外，注意对话中的情感色彩和语调变化，这将有助于您提高英语口语练习的效果。
在练习过程中，保持放松的心态，并记录下您的发音，定期回放检查进步，以便逐步提高您的发音水平。在逐渐适应了视频的语速后，您可以恢复到正常速度进行更深入的跟读练习。
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。
