Section 2.
3
You will hear a man who owns a holiday home talking on the phone to a woman who is staying there.
4
First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 13.
5
Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 13.
6
Hello?
7
Hi, it's Laura Carlton here.
8
We've just arrived at the holiday flat,
9
but I can't get the hot water and heating to work.
10
Oh right, that's easy.
11
Don't worry, in the upstairs cupboard you'll find the water heater.
12
You'll see three main controls on the left at the bottom of the heater.
13
The first one, the round one on the far left,
14
is the most important one for the heating and hot water.
15
It's the main control switch.
16
Make sure it's in the on position.
17
The switch itself doesn't light up,
18
but the little square below will be black if the switch is off.
19
That's probably what's happened.
20
It's got switched off by mistake.
21
The middle one of these three controls,
22
you'll see it's slightly larger than the first one, controls the radiators.
23
If you feel cold while you're there and need the radiators on,
24
this needs to be turned to maximum.
25
The last of the three controls,
26
the one on the right,
27
is usually on about a number four setting,
28
which for the water in the taps is usually quite hot enough.
29
Below the heating controls in the middle is a small round plastic button.
30
If there isn't enough water in the pipes,
31
sometimes the heater goes out.
32
If this happens, you'll need to press this button to reset the heater.
33
Hold it in for about five seconds and the heater should come on again.
34
Then there's a little square indicator under the third knob that's a kind of alarm light.
35
It'll flash if you need to reset the heater.
36
It sounds complicated.
37
I'm sure you won't have any problems with it.
38
There should be some more instructions on the side of the heater.
39
Call me back if you can't make it work.
40
Okay.
41
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
42
you have some time to look at questions 14 to 20.
43
Now listen and answer questions 14 to 20.
44
While you're on the phone,
45
we haven't managed to find a few things we need,
46
like extra pillows for the beds and some washing powder.
47
Is there any here?
48
Pillows, yes.
49
If you look in the cupboard,
50
the large white one upstairs,
51
to the left of the bathroom door,
52
there should be four or five on the top shelf.
53
And if you want to do some washing,
54
there's some powder for that,
55
um, probably by the back door.
56
There's a kind of shelf there above the sink.
57
In fact, I'm sure there's some there in a large blue box.
58
You need about half a cupful for each wash.
59
Oh, and that reminds me.
60
The spare key to the back door is hanging on a hook on the wall by the sitting room window.
61
Please make sure to put it back when you've used it.
62
The previous guest lost it in the garden and I had to get another one made.
63
And if you have any trouble with the lamps,
64
you'll find some spare bulbs in a large cardboard box.
65
It's on top of the washing machine with all kinds of useful things in it.
66
Oh, and another thing I forgot to mention when we last spoke.
67
Yes?
68
I've left you a local map,
69
so you'll be able to find your way around easily.
70
It shows the whole area.
71
I put it in the top drawer of the chest under the TV in your bedroom.
72
There's a whole file of local information in there too.
73
Thanks.
74
What about visiting the town?
75
Can you give us any advice?
76
Yes.
77
You'll need to take the car.
78
It's too far to walk from the flat, really.
79
You have to pay to leave your car in all the car parks now, I'm afraid.
80
I like the one that's by the station best,
81
and you can walk to the town centre from there in five minutes.
82
That's where all the best restaurants are.
83
But if you want a takeaway,
84
the Italian one does really good pasta and pizzas.
85
Call 7362-81 for that one,
86
or 766-119 for the Chinese.
87
They're both good, and they'll both deliver to the flat.
88
As for places to visit,
89
yes, do go and see the Railway Museum.
90
The exhibition is small, but really good.
91
It gets very crowded on Sundays,
92
so I suggest you visit it on a quieter day,
93
later in the week, but not on Thursdays, which is market day.
94
You won't find anywhere to park.
95
And it's also the only day of the week when they're not open.
96
Anything else?
97
Not for the moment, thanks.
98
That is the end of section 2.

关于本课
在本课中，学习者将通过听取关于热水器的对话，提高他们在英语环境中的理解能力。通过这段对话，您将练习听力并模拟发音，尤其在涉及与居住相关的日常用语时。这是提高英语发音和雅思口语练习的绝佳机会，帮助您增强自信心并在实际情况下应用英语口语。
关键词汇与短语
- 水加热器 (water heater) - 设备用于加热水。

练习技巧
在本视频中，您会听到一位男士与一位女士就热水器的使用进行交流。练习时，请使用shadowing技巧：跟随对话进行重复，以达到提高英语发音的效果。建议您采取以下步骤：
- 首次收听时，专注于理解对话内容，标记出不清楚的部分。
- 接下来，使用慢速在shadowing site上重复说出每一句话，确认每个词的发音。
- 每次跟读时，尽量模仿说话者的语调和节奏，注意声调的抑扬顿挫。
- 如果发现节奏过快，可以将播放速度调整至适中，便于准确跟读。
- 最后，尝试在日常生活中使用这些关键词汇，在实际场景中进行英语口语练习。
通过这种方法，您不仅可以提升对对话的理解，还可以在雅思口语练习中表现得更加自信！
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。
