Part 3.
2
You will hear two veterinary science students called Diana and Tim discussing their work placements and their course modules.
3
First you have some time to look at questions 21 to 26.
4
Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 26.
5
So, Tim, we have to do a short summary of our work experience on a farm.
6
Right.
7
My farm was great, but arranging the work experience was hard.
8
One problem was it was miles away and I don't drive.
9
And also, I'd really wanted a placement for a month,
10
but I could only get one for two weeks.
11
I was lucky.
12
The farmer let me stay on the farm,
13
so I didn't have to travel.
14
But finding the right sort of farm to apply to wasn't easy.
15
No, they don't seem to have websites, do they?
16
I found mine through a friend of my mother's, but it wasn't easy.
17
No. My farm was mostly livestock, especially sheep.
18
I really enjoyed helping out with them.
19
I was up most of one night helping a sheep deliver a lamb.
20
On your own?
21
No, the farmer was there,
22
and he told me what to do.
23
It wasn't a straightforward birth, but I managed.
24
It was a great feeling to see the lamb stagger to its feet and start feeding almost straight away,
25
and to know that it was okay.
26
Then another time, a lamb had broken its leg,
27
and they got the vet in to set it,
28
and he talked me through what he was doing.
29
That was really useful.
30
Yes, my farm had sheep too.
31
The farm was in a valley,
32
and they had a lowland breed called Suffolk's,
33
although the farmer said they'd had other breeds in the past.
34
So were they bred for their meat?
35
Mostly, yes.
36
They're quite big and solid.
37
My farm was up in the hills,
38
and they had a different breed of sheep.
39
They were cheviots.
40
Oh, I heard their wools really sought after.
41
Yes, it's very hard-wearing, and they use it for carpets.
42
Right.
43
I was interested in the amount of supplements they add to animals' feed nowadays.
44
Like, even the chickens got extra vitamins and electrolytes in their feed.
45
Yes, I found that too.
46
And they're not cheap.
47
But my farmer said some are overpriced for what they are,
48
And he didn't give them as a matter of routine,
49
just at times when the chickens seemed to particularly require them.
50
Yes, Mai said the same.
51
He said certain breeds of chickens might need more supplements than the others,
52
but the cheap and expensive ones are all basically the same.
53
So, did your farm have any other livestock, Diana?
54
Yes, dairy cows.
55
I made a really embarrassing mistake when I was working in the milk shed.
56
Some cows had been treated with antibiotics,
57
so their milk wasn't suitable for human consumption,
58
and it had to be put in a separate container.
59
But I got mixed up,
60
and I poured some milk from the wrong cow in with the milk for humans,
61
so the whole lot had to be thrown away.
62
The farmer wasn't too happy with me.
63
I asked my farmer how much he depended on the vet to deal with health problems.
64
I'd read reports that the livestock's health is being affected as farmers are under pressure to increase production.
65
Well, he didn't agree with that,
66
but he said that actually some of the stuff the vets do,
67
like minor operations, he'd be quite capable of doing himself.
68
Yeah, my farmer said the same,
69
but he reckons vet skills are still needed.
70
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
71
you have some time to look at questions 27-30.
72
Now listen and answer questions 27 to 30.
73
Now we've got to give a bit of feedback about last term's modules,
74
just short comments apparently.
75
Shall we do that now?
76
OK.
77
So, medical terminology.
78
Well, my heart sank when I saw that,
79
especially right at the beginning of the course,
80
and I did struggle with it.
81
I thought it'd be hard,
82
but actually I found it all quite straightforward.
83
What did you think about diet and nutrition?
84
OK, I suppose.
85
Do you remember what they told us about pet food
86
and the fact that there's such limited checking into whether or not it's contaminated?
87
I mean, in comparison with the checks on food for humans,
88
I thought that was terrible.
89
Hmm.
90
I think the module that really impressed me was the animal disease one.
91
When we looked at domesticated animals in different parts of the world,
92
like camels and water buffalo and alpaca,
93
the economies of so many countries depend on these,
94
but scientists don't know much about the diseases that affect them.
95
Yes.
96
I thought they'd know a lot about ways of controlling and eradicating those diseases,
97
but that's not the case at all.
98
I loved the wildlife medication unit.
99
Things like helping birds that have been caught in oil spills.
100
That's something I hadn't thought about before.
101
Yeah.
102
I thought I might write my dissertation on something connected with that.
103
Right.
104
So, actually, I was thinking something along the same lines...
105
That is the end of part three.
106
You now have half a minute to check your answers to part three.

关于本课

在本节课中,学习者将通过聆听两位兽医学学生迪安娜和蒂姆讨论他们的实习经验与课程模块,提升英语听力和口语能力。通过了解他们在农场工作时的经历,学生将能学会如何描述工作经历,提升自己的英语表达能力。这对准备雅思口语练习或任何英语口语练习都是非常有帮助的。特别是对于那些希望通过看YouTube学英语的学习者来说,这段对话提供了一个真实且生动的学习情境。

关键词汇与短语

练习技巧

为了有效提升口语技能,建议学习者在观看这段视频时进行影子跟读 (shadowing)练习。首先,体会视频中的语速和语调,选择一个合适的段落进行练习。可以从较慢的节奏开始,逐渐过渡到快速的对话。在聆听时,尽量模仿发音、语调和节奏,增强真实对话的体验。

在影子练习的过程中,可以暂停视频,反复聆听特定的句子,确保自己发音准确,尤其是关键词汇如“实习经验”和“饲料”,这些在日常交流中非常常用。对于想要提高雅思口语能力或英语口语练习的学习者,常常进行这种影子演练将能够显著改善口语表达能力。

通过这样的方式,不仅能够有效练习语言技能,还能帮助你更好地理解生态与养殖的一些专业术语。如果你想在一个少有的话题上展开更多讨论,参与相关的在线论坛或社群也会是一个不错的主意。

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。
