1
Part 2 You will hear a short talk given to a group of retired people about a club called Connect.
2
First you have some time to look at questions 11 to 15.
3
Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 15.
4
Hello, I've been asked to talk to you today about Connect.
5
Connect is a club for people who have retired from full -time work.
6
The first Connect club began back in 1960 in Brisbane, Australia.
7
Today, I'll concentrate on Frankston Connect, the club where I'm a member.
8
It services the communities around the suburb of Frankston here in Melbourne.
9
Okay, so what are our club aims? we're not a fitness club
10
or anything like that some connect branches do charity work
11
but that's not for us our objective is to provide social contact with others who have similar interests
12
and ideas now meetings we have monthly club meetings where the
13
usual club business is discussed for example at the last meeting we talked about how much money was spent
14
that month also at that meeting someone had just returned from an overseas trip and he spoke about that.
15
Then we looked at entries for our photography competition.
16
The winner will be announced soon.
17
Up until now we've used the school hall for our meetings
18
but that's about to be renovated so we needed to find an alternative.
19
It's been a great venue because of its size and it's
20
so easy to get to but I'm sure historical Frankston Hall will suit us just fine.
21
Our social committee plans and organizes club trips from time to time, and they're always looking for suggestions from members for new places to go to.
22
If you join, you should check the activities list that's posted on our website each month and attend anything that interests you.
23
Come and make friends.
24
We're just one big happy family.
25
So, how do you join and what about membership fees?
26
It's simple.
27
Just fill in the form and give it to me before you leave this morning.
28
There are a few payment options.
29
Some members prefer to make an annual payment, which is a slightly cheaper option, or you can pay monthly.
30
Why don't you get a group together?
31
It makes the activities more fun.
32
Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 16 to 20.
33
If you still haven't decided whether to join or not, let me try to tempt you with some of our upcoming events.
34
Our Moonlight Wildlife Walk was previously available to members' immediate families as well,
35
but this wonderful activity has become so popular that it's now limited to just members.
36
Although it's free, we do ask our members to pay something to the Wildlife Fund so it can continue its good work.
37
Everyone makes their way to the wildlife park independently, arriving at dusk, where a guide walks with the group and tells us about all the animals we encounter.
38
OK, theatre in the park.
39
We see a different play every month.
40
The park's on the train line and easy to access, so we don't organise buses or anything.
41
Come along and recline on a blanket on the grass, although some members prefer to take along their own seat.
42
No need to make a reservation, there's plenty of space.
43
After the play, we all walk to a local cafe where you can purchase coffee and cake.
44
It's a really fun night out.
45
Birdwatching is a regular activity and it's organised by the keen birdwatchers in the club.
46
This activity consists mainly of early morning and late afternoon walking trips to spot the birds when they're most active.
47
Birdwatching attracts only small numbers, so one of our ardent birdwatchers drives members in the club van to the best spots.
48
The City Botanical Gardens Walk is a popular activity that occurs a couple of times a year.
49
Members make their own way there and usually meet up outside the gates at 8 .45am, setting off for the hour's walk with the volunteer guide by 9am.
50
Many members bring a friend or relative and this is fine.
51
Now, the State Library.
52
Our visits here in the past have always been great because there's something for everyone.
53
You can easily spend a whole day in there.
54
There's a lovely restaurant
55
and you can take food into the small cinema there where
56
we'll be watching a short film about the history of our local area.
57
So, what else can I tell you?
58
That is the end of Part 2.
59
You now have 30 seconds to check your answers to Part 2.
60
Thank you.

Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 15.

✨ 推荐视频
这段视频的口语练习目标
这段关于Frankston Connect俱乐部的讲解非常适合用来提升雅思口语练习中的话题展开能力和自然表达流畅度。视频中详细介绍了俱乐部的历史、活动和入会方式,内容贴近日常生活场景,能帮助学习者掌握如何清晰、有条理地描述组织架构、活动安排等话题。通过模仿这段独白的节奏和语气,还能锻炼在正式场合下的口语表达自信,为雅思口语考试中的个人陈述部分打好基础。
实用短语库
- “concentrate on”(专注于):可用于说明话题重点,如“I'll concentrate on the main reasons”。
- “provide social contact with”(提供与……的社交联系):描述组织或活动的功能,适合在雅思口语中谈论社区活动。
- “from time to time”(偶尔,不时):替换“sometimes”,让表达更丰富,如“We organize trips from time to time”。
- “make their way to”(前往):比“go to”更生动,如“Members make their way to the park at 8am”。
- “consists mainly of”(主要包括):用于介绍活动内容,如“The course consists mainly of practical training”。
突破口语弱点:影子跟读训练
这段视频的语速适中,发音清晰,非常适合进行英语影子跟读(shadow speech)练习。讲解中包含不少连读和弱读现象,比如“back in 1960”中的“back in”连读,以及“it's so easy to get to”中的“to”弱读。通过反复跟读,能有效提升对英语语音节奏的敏感度,改善发音中的生硬感。建议先逐句跟读,模仿说话人的语气和停顿,再尝试整段跟读,逐渐缩短与原音的时间差。坚持练习,不仅能提高口语流畅度,还能为雅思口语考试中的即时反应能力打下基础。想要提升口语的同学,不妨把这段视频当作看视频学英语的素材,结合影子跟读,让英语口语练习更高效。
视频中的语法
说话人最常用的结构,并附上视频中的原话:
| 结构 | 视频中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 现在完成时 have/has + 过去分词 — 过去发生但与现在仍有关联的事 | I've been asked · have retired · haven't decided |
| 被动语态 be + 过去分词 — 强调发生了什么,而不是谁做的 | I've been asked · is discussed · will be announced |
| 定语从句 who / which + 从句 — 补充说明人或事物 | people who have · payment, which is |
| 用 “should” 提建议 should + 动词 — 表示应该做的事 | should check |
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。
