IELTS Preparation. Band 8-9 Answers. Part 3 - Gifts. Question 3.

Speaker one: I’ve had many language lessons over the years. My lessons at school were mundane and a waste of time. They involved rote learning which meant we just repeated everything the teacher said, and we had a lot of grammar lessons! However, when I started university, everything changed. The classes were engaging and practical. I remember a grammar lesson about conditionals in my first term. The teacher introduced the language through a funny picture story and included many engaging activities to help us work out the rules for ourselves and practice the language in a meaningful way. Not only was it enjoyable, but it was also effective as I left the class feeling like I’d really learned something.


Speaker two: Honestly, I think my most enjoyable English classes were at primary school. Our teacher, Miss Hinker was wonderful and very musical. She loved singing and taught us new songs all the time. She gave us musical instruments that we could use too. I’ll never forget the time she taught us a new song called ‘There was an old lady who swallowed a fly.’ I must have been around eight at the time. It was a song about a lady who ate many animals, finishing with a horse. It was hilarious. First, she showed us all the actions and then we sang the song many times and played the instruments. We laughed a lot, and I still remember the words to this day. I never wanted those lessons to end.

こんばんは！Atsushiです。
北海道はどんどん寒くなってきました。
日によって変わりますが、日が沈むと寒いですね。

ということで、今日は車のタイヤについて、話します。
みなさんの国では、冬になったら、車のタイヤを変えますか？日本は、西日本ではほとんど必要ありませんが、北海道や東北、日本海側など、冬に雪が降る場所では、スタッドレスタイヤに変える必要があります。

先週、タイヤを交換しました。
これで、道路が少し凍っていたり、雪が積もっていたりしても大丈夫です。

ノーマルタイヤだと滑ってしまって、事故になります。だから、必ず変える必要があります。

僕は鳥取に住んでいた時にも、冬はスタッドレスタイヤに変えていたので、少し慣れています。ですが、北海道の冬ははじめてなので、少し不安ですね。

この千歳、という場所は、1.2月の平均気温が-12℃ぐらいまで下がるようです。雪はそんなにたくさんは積もらない、らしいです。

今年はせっかく北海道で冬を過ごすので、楽しみたいと思います！


ということで、今回はスノータイヤに変えました！という話でした。最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

今回は、ベルリンに向かう電車の話をします。

いよいよ、電車に乗って出発！しましたが、また新たな問題が発生しました。どこに座ればいいか問題。

2等の席のチケットを予約しました。
なので、2等の席に座っていました。次の駅に停まった時、人が乗ってきました。座っていると1人の男性に声をかけられました。彼はここが自分の席であることを言いました。僕たちは、ん？となってわからなかったのですが、席をあけました。

そして、他の席に座って、ネットで調べてみました。2等の席でもお金を払えば予約することができるみたいでした。それで、席の通路側にデジタルのサインが出ることがわかりました。予約されている時は、どこどこーどこどこ、フランクフルトーベルリン、のように表記されるようでした。

でも、席によっては、予約されているかもしれないけどわからない、というような表記がありました。日本ではそういう表記はしないだろうなと思い、おもしろいなと思いました。

結局、そのあいてるかあいてないかわからないよ、という表記の席に座りました。

それでようやく落ち着いて座ることができました。と言いながら、駅で停まるたびに、ここ、私の席です、と言われないか気になりました笑

そうやって、無事、ベルリンに着きました。


ということで、今回は以上です。
また続き、話しますね！

最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
