''Rashomon'' #2
Written by Ryunosuke Akutagawa 1915
『羅生門』(らしょうもん） 芥川龍之介・著　
   第二話


旧記によると、仏像や仏具を打ち砕いて、
その丹がついたり金銀の箔がついたりした木を、
路ばたにつみ重ねて、薪の料に売っていた
という事である。
洛中がその始末であるから、羅生門の修理などは
元より誰も捨てて顧みる者がなかった。
するとその荒れ果てたのをよい事にして、
狐狸が棲む。盗人が棲む。とうとうしまいには、
引取り手のない死人を、この門へ持ってきて、
棄てていくという習慣さえできた。
そこで、日の目が見えなくなると、誰でも気味を
悪るがって、この門の近所へは足ぶみをしない事に
なってしまったのである。

How do you improve your IELTS band score. In this podcast I’m going to give you 1 simple strategy to help you get the band score you need.

The technique I’m going to teach you is paraphrase. Yes, paraphrasing is very important, and it’s something that IELTS examiners listen out for. In the IELTS band descriptors you will see that you can not get a band score 6 or 7 unless you can paraphrase effectively.

Let me give you an example.

Let’s say in part 1 the examiner asks you about your hometown and asks you this question: Is your hometown a popular destination for foreigners?

You should answer the question by choosing a synonym for foreigners, for example, tourists.

You could also choose a synonym  for destination, for example visit.

So, when the examiner asks you “Is your hometown a popular destination for foreigners?” you could answer like this:

Yes, many tourists visit my hometown. 

So, you’ve answered the question using paraphrase.

Instead of foreigners you said tourists and instead of destination, you said visit.

Let me teach you again. If the examiner asks you “Is your hometown a popular destination for foreigners?” you could answer:

Yes, many tourists visit my hometown.
