IELTS LISTENING TIPS MULTIPLE CHOICE

Диктант - это не самая любимая часть занятий по русскому языку у школьников, но очень полезная. Так что давайте учиться понимать русский и грамотно его записывать!

Система будет такая. Я прочитаю текст два раза: в первый раз медленно, по несколько слов (ставьте эпизод на паузу, чтобы всё успеть), второй раз - быстрее, чтобы вы проверили, всё ли правильно записали.

Отправьте мне сообщение, как только закончите диктант, и я пришлю вам его текст для сверки. 

Первый текст - цитата Вячеслава Полунина о счастье. Очень рекомендую посмотреть его ted-talk “Счастье дурака”.

Там встречается два сложных слова - “дзынькает” и “на полную катушку”.
Удачного диктанта!

Слова Вячеслава Полунина о счастье (диктант)

La pie qui s'amuse
C’est moi, Mimi la pie. Blanc et noir est mon habit. Je suis très jolie et, très souvent, je ris. Et savez-vous ce qu’il y a dans mon nid ? Des radis, du pain de mie, des grains de riz et de l’eau-de-vie. L’après-midi, j’ai rapporté une boule de gui. Du gui dans mon nid pour la nouvelle année. J’ai invité toutes les pies dans mon nid décoré. On s’est fait des bibis sous le gui et on a dansé toute la nuit !
On s’amuse toujours entre amis chez Mimi la pie.

Forget bullet points and dry statistics. Capturing attention and sparking action requires a different approach: storytelling.  Effective communication transforms you from an information provider into a captivating storyteller, weaving a narrative that resonates with your audience.

Why Stories?

Humans are wired for stories. They tap into emotions, create a sense of connection, and make information more memorable.  A well-crafted story in a business presentation can:

Illustrate complex concepts: Imagine explaining a new marketing strategy. By weaving a story about a customer's journey, you make the strategy relatable and engaging.
Highlight challenges and solutions: Business is full of obstacles. Share a story about overcoming a past hurdle, showcasing your problem-solving expertise.
Inspire and motivate: The most powerful stories evoke emotions and ignite action. Use a story of a customer's success to inspire others to do the same.

Identify the Hero: Every story needs a hero. In a business context, the hero could be your customer, your team, or even your company itself.
Define the Obstacle: What challenges does the hero face? This could be a market disruption, a competitor's strategy, or an internal obstacle to overcome.
Showcase the Journey: How does the hero overcome the obstacles? This is where you highlight your product, service, or strategy in action.
Deliver a Satisfying Resolution: What is the positive outcome of the story? Did the hero achieve their goal? Leave your audience with a sense of accomplishment and hope.
Storytelling in Action:

Imagine pitching your innovative new software to potential investors. Instead of a dry presentation full of technical jargon, weave a story about a struggling small business frustrated with outdated software.  Highlight how your product transformed their operations, leading to increased efficiency and growth.  This narrative approach connects on an emotional level, making your pitch more memorable and impactful.
