How to Delegate Effectively and Achieve Better Results

14 Listening tips for your IELTS exam

    Attempt all questions – there are no penalties for incorrect answers.
    Watch out for plurals in answers. If the question requires a plural answer, a singular answer is incorrect.
    Answers appear in the order they are heard in the audio. They come quickly or with large gaps between them.
    Prepare to hear a potential answer that is not the actual answer. This is common when two people are making plans. They first agree on meeting at a certain time, but then one remembers that they cannot so they decide on a new time.
    Take care when you transfer your answers and pay attention to the word limit for your answers on your answer sheet!
    Multiple-choice answers will ask for a letter (a, b, c, d). Write the letter and not the corresponding answer.
    When asked to complete a sentence using no more than two words, and the correct answer is “leather coat,” then “a coat made of leather” is incorrect. Same goes for numbers.
    Hyphenated words (like “part-time”) are considered as one word.

    Focus on what the speaker is saying not how they say it.
    Don’t take notes in complete sentences – jot down the key points and abbreviate. You only need to write down enough to help your memory later.
    Get the habit of distinguishing between essential and non-essential information. If two people are talking about making plans for a dinner date, the important information is the date/time they finally agree upon. Other dates/times they considered become irrelevant.
    Try to guess what the speaker is going to say. Speakers, will often drop clue words or outline what they will to talk about beforehand. This gives you the ability to start your own outline to then fill in.
    Listen to the audio while reading the audio script. This will help you get a sense of how questions are spaced out, as well as learning some useful common expressions that are frequently used in listening tests.

Today I’m going to talk about School uniform in Japan.
The school uniform is totally changing recently from my school days. How are they changing? Please listen to today’s podcast! Thank you!
*************************************
4月　新しい制服を着て桜の花をバックに写真を撮る親子を何組か見かけました。
日本の中学校、高校では、ほとんどの学校で制服を着ます。私が通っていた中学校では、女子は　冬はジャンパースカートにブレザーとカッターシャツ、夏は吊りスカートに白いカッターシャツを着て、男子は詰襟（つめえり）とスラックスでした。　高校では、冬は紺色のセーラー服に紺のリボンと紺のスカート、夏は白のセーラー服に紺のスカートを着ていました。男子は同じく詰襟でした。私はこの制服が大好きでした。
学校によって制服が違って、制服を見ればどこの学校の生徒かわかるようになっていました。　ですから、「私たちの制服」という気持ちが強かったと思います。
この制服が、最近　どんどん　変わってきています。　以前は、男子はスラックスで、女子はスカートというスタイルが当たり前でした。でも、今は「性別に関係なく着られる制服」を選ぶ学校が増えてきているのです。　ですから、生徒たちは、スカートでもスラックスでも自分が着たいほうを選ぶことができるのです。
さらに、地域共通のブレザーの制服が広まりつつあるそうです。地域全体で同じ制服を着ることには、いくつかメリットがあって、一つは、制服の値段が安くなること。そして、もう一つは、地域内で引っ越したときに、学校が変わっても制服を買い直さなくてもいいということだそうです。
私個人的には、みんな同じ制服だと、学校ごとの個性がなくなって、なんだか寂しいような気がしますが…。
