1
So Tav, the test today will be around 12 to 15 minutes and if you're happy we can start?
2
Okay.
3
Fantastic.
4
Tav, I want to start please by talking about technology.
5
Tell me, how often do you use technology?
6
Well, I'm exposed to digital technology every day.
7
It has become an integral part of my daily routine.
8
The one stand out is my smartphone.
9
Yesterday I used it for learning online, or stream movies and use Google Maps to get around.
10
Thank you.
11
Excellent.
12
What devices do you use most?
13
Actually, the device that I rely on heavily is my smartphone.
14
This is due to the fact that it's small
15
and fit perfectly in the parts of my hands
16
so I can carry around in order to keep in touch with my family and friends anywhere, anytime.
17
Moreover, it's versatile so I can use it for both learning and entertainment.
18
Fantastic, well done.
19
Has technology improved your life?
20
It has a positive effect on my life.
21
For example, I can in the quarantine of COVID-19,
22
thanks to the technological advancement, I was able to attend online classes.
23
Moreover, high tech solutions and public transport can help me save time and effort.
24
They can work more productively and enjoy more free time.
25
Wonderful.
26
Thank you so much.
27
But are there any disadvantages to using technology?
28
Absolutely, yes.
29
I would say technology, overusing technology also has a detrimental effect on humans' mental health.
30
If people spend too much time online instead of socializing in real life,
31
it can make them feel isolated.
32
Moreover, there is a lot of violent content on the internet
33
so it can make people more aggressive behavior.
34
Definitely, thank you.
35
Let's talk about friends now.
36
How often do you see your friends now?
37
Actually, nowadays I rarely see my friends because of my headache schedule.
38
However, in the past, I used to spend my holiday traveling with my close friends.
39
This is due to the fact that we were both passionate about traveling and we liked to learn about new cultures
40
and gain a deeper understanding of the local people's way of life in order to broaden our horizon and create unforgettable memories.
41
Thank you so much.
42
What do you usually do with your friends together?
43
Yeah, like I mentioned both, I love traveling with my close friends.
44
Yeah.
45
In the past, we just used weekends hanging out together,
46
watching movies and eating out.
47
But then when we grow older, we have our own salary.
48
Yeah, we're getting rich.
49
Yeah, we enjoy something fancy like traveling.
50
Yeah, wonderful.
51
Contrast as you grow up.
52
Welcome.
53
Do you prefer to have just a few close friends or many friends?
54
I would say I would love to have a few buddies.
55
I believe quality is better than quantity.
56
I don't really care about the number of friends I have.
57
I pay more attention to their personality,
58
whether they are compassionate and whether we share the same views.
59
Having a few friends is enough as long as they are always there for me when I'm in trouble
60
and can give me helpful advice.
61
Thank you very much.
62
And to finish part one, let's talk about shopping.
63
Tao, do you enjoy shopping?
64
Absolutely, yes.
65
For example, last week I went to a Dior store and treated myself to a nice handbag and I felt open immune.
66
I believe shopping is not only helps me relax and unwind after a long day at work,
67
but also gives me a strong sense of fulfillment.
68
Thank you, I agree.
69
Do you prefer shopping online or in-store?
70
To be honest, in the past I referred shopping at physical stores
71
because I could try things on and see if they fit me properly
72
and I also wanted to feel the texture before making a purchase.
73
However, nowadays I enjoy shopping online, especially on Shopee.
74
This is due to the fact that it saves me time and effort and I can find a lot of discounts.
75
Yeah, which is very important because I don't have much disposable income.
76
I thought you just told me you're rich.
77
my business after I have a family.
78
Yeah, I know that feeling.
79
Wonderful, thank you.
80
Okay Tao, that brings us to the end of part one.
81
Well done.
82
Now we will move on to part two where I will give you a question here, okay?
83
And you have one minute to prepare.
84
The question is please Tao, describe a person who you think is very successful.
85
Yes.
86
Okay Tao, that brings us to the end of the one minute.
87
When you're ready, please start.
88
Absolutely.
89
There are many accomplished individuals I could talk about.
90
However, if I had to pick one, it would be Taylor Swift.
91
I chose Taylor Swift because she has had a profound influence on my life.
92
When I was in my teenagers,
93
In my teenage years, I was fed up with learning English and I often slept through my classes.
94
However, everything changed when I happened to hear her song You Belong With Me on Disney Channel.
95
That was a turning point in my life since it changed my perspective on learning English.
96
From then on, I started to enjoy learning English.
97
So I can vividly remember I used to buy a large number of textbooks just to write down
98
her song lyrics and I also tried to sing along while listening which helped improve my pronunciation and listening skills.
99
So let me tell you more about Taylor Swift.
100
She is a world famous singer songwriter.
101
She has won numerous Grammy Awards,
102
for example, particularly for albums like Fearless and Midnight,
103
which earned widespread critical acclaim.
104
In my opinion, Taylor Swift is the most beautiful woman in the world, not only because of her stunning looks,
105
but also because she has a heart of gold.
106
For example, she helped her pregnant friends by buying her house after knowing about her difficult situation situation in the future.
107
I would love to meet Taylor Swift and give her a heart.
108
Fantastic.
109
Thank you so much.
110
Well done, Tao.
111
I can tell and feel your passion towards Taylor Swift is wonderful.
112
Let's move on now to part three, Tao and I want to start by talking about the topic of success.
113
Tell me, how do people define success?
114
Well, that's an interesting question.
115
Some people think it is closely related to wealth.
116
This is due to the fact
117
that being rich can allow people to afford luxury items such as a Rolex watch or Mercedes Maybach,
118
which can reflect their social status.
119
Others think success means famous because when people have a good reputation,
120
it can help them stand the test of time.
121
However, I believe success is more about the way you are living in a healthy lifestyle.
122
Thank you.
123
Perfect.
124
Do you think success is more about money or happiness?
125
To be honest, it's definitely happiness.
126
What I mean is that people who are happy usually have more energy and they can work more productively.
127
And as a result, they sooner or later will be able to achieve success. For example,
128
in Korea there are many famous artists
129
but they are not happy because they were depressed or have suffered from cyberbullying.
130
And finally, they took their life, their own lives.
131
Yeah.
132
Moreover, success, true success comes from enjoying your life, having good relationships.
133
I agree.
134
Thank you.
135
How has the definition of success changed over time?
136
Oh, that's a great question.
137
In my opinion, it depends on age.
138
For all people, success means the national freedom.
139
This is due to the fact that many of them lived through World War II and experienced the loss of family members.
140
Therefore, nothing makes them feel more successful than having liberty.
141
In contrast, young people think success is something like being rich and famous.
142
Not only because being rich can help them enjoy a better quality of life,
143
but also being famous can help their reputation stand the test of time.
144
Thank you, thank you.
145
I love that contrast there, brilliant.
146
Now let's move on to talk about role models now.
147
Why do some people look up to successful individuals?
148
It's definitely because it's normally a positive influence because successful people
149
normally have achieved success in their field,
150
which is very important because they can help built a thriving community.
151
However, in my opinion, it's also because of their personality.
152
This is due to the fact that to become successful,
153
They worked very hard and didn't give up when they faced difficulty in life.
154
So they can set good examples for many people.
155
Thank you, thank you.
156
Very interesting.
157
How do famous people influence society?
158
Normally it's a positive effect.
159
Celebrities and influencers,
160
They are successful and they can inspire their fans and set good examples for many people to follow.
161
For example, in Vietnam there is a famous award named WeJoyce Award
162
where people honor the ones who positively contribute to the community.
163
Moreover, there are negative effects.
164
If famous people engage in bad behaviors like violence or drug use,
165
they can affect many people especially children in a harmful way.
166
Definitely, wow very interesting.
167
Okay Tam and that brings us to the final question now.
168
What qualities make someone a good role model?
169
Yeah some people think it's wealth because when people are rich they can enjoy a better quality of life.
170
But in my opinion, I believe it's about warm-hearted.
171
Kindness can make the world more peaceful,
172
which allows people free to pursue their dream and therefore they can achieve success in the future.
173
Fantastic, thank you.
174
I totally agree.
175
And that brings us to the end of the test.
176
Well done.
177
Fantastic, good job, good job.
178
How did you find that?
179
I find a great sensor for a few minutes because I overcome the abstract, the topics, license test.
180
I'm absolutely blown away from that.
181
You know, I love you, but I tried to pick a little bit more challenging topics for part three for you to try and push you.
182
I think that if you get a topic like travel or hometown, it's a lot easier to speak.
183
But when you're talking about success, role models and influence, it's far more challenging.
184
So I thought we did a great job.
185
Wow.
186
I know that you're feeling nervous a little bit before.
187
Yes.
188
Amazing.
189
Now, listen, the part one is phenomenal.
190
Yeah, your part one is absolutely amazing.
191
The part two about Taylor Swift, I was just blown away by it.
192
I will be honest, in the real, you spoke a little bit too long.
193
We were at two minutes and 20.
194
In the real exam, they would cut you off at two minutes, but I was enjoying listening so much.
195
And I think that people would benefit so much from listening to your answer for that.
196
So I let you run a little bit.
197
I love that you followed the technique too.
198
And you followed it perfectly.
199
Absolutely beautiful.
200
Have you always loved Taylor Swift?
201
Yes.
202
Yeah, okay.
203
You could feel that.
204
I was in my teenage years for real.
205
So was that story true about him inspiring you to learn?
206
Maybe I have to. Have to.
207
You're a really good liar.
208
Yeah.
209
Amazing.
210
So for me, if I was to give you a little bit of feedback, part one is beautiful, part two, excellent.
211
For part three, of course, I love that you use the different techniques.
212
So the first one, answer by example, alternative, beautiful.
213
The second one, some people think, but I, in fact, you pushed it even more more some people think others believe
214
but I wow unbelievable and then for that one question about defining success
215
when you used it depends on age I loved that as well
216
and I felt the emotion in your voice one thing I will say is
217
if I was to be really critical and just
218
if I was to say there was quite a lot not a lot
219
but there was a little hesitation a little bit um um
220
while thinking about ideas in the part three that's something
221
that I wanted to work on you know
222
if I was to be really critical
223
but to be honest I mean as a first go it was phenomenal absolutely brilliant I'm
224
so proud of you well done though thank you good luck in the exam yeah amazing thank you brilliant

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。
