introduction as well as the general questions 在第一部分的介紹以及一般問題中 jaleel very cleverly uses numbers so that her information is easy to understand for the examiner Jalil非常巧妙地使用數字,讓考官更容易理解她的資訊 this strategy is called quantification meaning explaining qualitative ideas with quantitative numbers 這個策略稱為量化,意即用數量來說明質性觀點 like when she explains that she lives in kolkata in a three-bedroom detached house 就像她說她住在加爾各答的三房獨立房子裡 this gives us a clear sense of the size of the house that she lives in 這讓我們清楚知道她住的房子的大小 also when asked about work and play how often does she work 此外,當被問到工作與娛樂時,她工作多頻繁 she uses natural english by saying that she works quite a bit 她用自然英語說自己工作蠻多的 but how much is that really for the listener that's not yet clear because it's just qualitative 但對聽者來說,這到底有多常還不清楚,因為只是描述性 so she continues to explain that she works monday to friday from 9 00 am until 6 pm 所以她繼續解釋,她從星期一到星期五,早上九點到下午六點工作 these numbers and days of the week clearly quantify what she means 這些數字和星期幾明確量化了她的意思 when she says i work quite a bit 當她說我工作蠻多時 use this strategy in all parts of your speaking to improve your band score 在你的口語所有部分都使用這個策略,可以提升你的分數 make sure to practice now 一定要練習 --- **00:04:54** part two that is

is up Jalil,你的準備時間到 please begin speaking 請開始說話 i've been thinking of a great idea recently which is very lucrative in the long run and that is to make online fashion competitions through social media like youtube and instagram 我最近一直在想一個很有利可圖的好點子,長期來看,就是通過社交媒體如YouTube和Instagram舉辦線上時尚比賽 basically my idea is to bring together fashion designers on a youtube channel 基本上,我的想法是把時尚設計師聚集在一個YouTube頻道上 and the designers that get most likes in prizes ultimately 並且那些獲得最多點贊的設計師最終可以獲得獎品 with the growing popularity of my channel and some of the designers big brand names like gucci or calvin klein can contribute some sponsorship deals 隨著我頻道的日益流行,一些大品牌如古馳或卡文克萊的設計師可以提供贊助合作 also i can sell the merchandise of the fashion designers participating in my project 我也可以銷售參與我項目的時尚設計師的商品 i think in order to make my idea real i need to come up with a clever name for my youtube channel 我認為,要實現這個想法,我需要想出一個聰明的YouTube頻道名稱 as well as i need to convince some ambitious designers 我還需要說服一些有抱負的設計師 i think about this idea just because i think that there are a lot of fashion designers out there who have trouble getting recognized 我之所以想到這個點子,是因為我覺得有很多設計師很難被認識 and this could be a great way for them to gain some exposure 這對他們來說是一個很好的曝光機會 and also the viewers can get the excitement from the competition 而觀眾也可以從比賽中獲得刺激 i think once i'm in my fashion school in london there will be more opportunities for me to do much of this 我認為,一旦我進入倫敦的時裝學校,會有更多機會做這些事情 just because there will be a lot of like-minded people there 因為那裡會有很多志同道合的人 when this project start making money 當這個項目開始賺錢 i will invest this into my career and make more designer projects 我會把這些錢投資到我的事業,做更多設計師相關的項目 --- **00:06:36** your time is up i will stop you there and now i will take back the questions 你的時間到了,我會打斷你,現在我會收回問題 jaleel's part two cue card response is also a band nine but what does that actually mean Jalil的第二部分卡片回答也是滿分九分,但那到底代表什麼 what does it really take to be an expert user of the english language when giving a one to two minute mini presentation 成為一個英語專家,能在一到兩分鐘內做出精彩的簡短演講,真的需要什麼 well first of all she answers all the questions on the card clearly 首先,她清楚回答卡片上的所有問題 most importantly she chooses a good answer to talk about her business idea about fashion using social media 最重要的是,她選擇一個好的話題來談論她的商業點子,關於用社交媒體做時尚 this is clearly an original idea and she does a wonderful job of explaining it 這是一個明顯的創新點子,她解釋得非常精彩 when picking your idea for part two it's really important that you think of at least two to three possible choices 在第二部分選擇點子時,非常重要的是要想出至少兩到三個選擇 oftentimes the first idea isn't the best choice 很多時候,第一個點子並不是最佳選擇 the one that you finally settle on to talk about for part two should be easy to discuss 最後你決定用來談的點子,應該是容易討論的 there should be lots of content and it should be original 內容要豐富,而且要有創意 talking about social media and fashion was just that for jalil 談論社交媒體和時尚,正是Jalil的好選擇 now she also kept in mind that when discussing an idea a person must explain where the idea came from 她也記得在討論一個點子時,必須解釋這個點子來自何處 what is required for this idea 這個點子需要什麼 what are the expected outcomes for the idea 預期的結果是什麼 and potentially how can this idea be improved 以及這個點子如何可以改進 when thinking about these points as well as the questions on the cue card you can easily talk for one to two minutes without repetition and with lots of detail 在思考這些點以及卡片上的問題時,你可以輕鬆地談一到兩分鐘,內容不重複且充滿細節 just like jalil 就像Jalil一樣 let's talk about her strategies for band nine in part three 我們來談談她在第三部分的滿分九分策略 uh please put the note paper to the side turn it over with the pencil yes thank you 請把筆記紙放到一旁,把鉛筆翻轉,謝謝 and now we will 現在我們將進行 --- **00:07:24** continue with part three 繼續第三部分 for this part i will ask you a question related to your response 在這部分,我會就你的回答提問相關問題 and some questions on this topic 以及一些關於這個主題的問題 have you taken any steps so far to start this project 你到目前為止有採取任何措施來啟動這個項目嗎? yes i have 是的 i've been brainstorming ideas for names and for designs and layout for the youtube channel and instagram 我一直在頭腦風暴,想名字、設計和YouTube頻道及Instagram的佈局 let's talk about making money 我們來談談賺錢 why do many people invest a lot of effort to make more and more money 為什麼很多人努力賺更多錢 i think that people nowadays are more materialistic 我覺得現在的人更物質主義 and they decide to make a lot of money so that they can buy 他們決定賺很多錢,這樣就可以買到 luxury items like big house or a fancy car or maybe a lot of clothes 奢侈品,比如大房子、豪華汽車或很多衣服 honestly i wouldn't mind myself having these things 說真的,我自己也不介意擁有這些東西 is this always good 這總是好嗎? i think it is for most of the part 我認為大多數情況下是好的 because they can have more money and they can lead a luxurious life 因為他們可以有更多錢,過上奢華的生活 and it is actually depends on the way people think 這實際上取決於人們的想法 how have money making opportunities changed from one generation before 賺錢的機會是如何從上一代變化的? that's a tricky question 這是一個棘手的問題 i think during my parents' time people used to invest more in land and businesses 我認為在我父母那一代,人們更傾向於投資土地和企業 but nowadays people are more into investment types like cryptocurrencies and online money making 但現在人們更傾向於投資加密貨幣和線上賺錢 what new opportunities may be available in the future to make more money 未來可能有哪些新機會可以賺更多錢? i suppose there will be people who are really interested to invest and control resources like fresh water or air 我猜會有人對投資和控制資源(如淡水或空氣)非常感興趣 because the human population is increasing and resources are decreasing 因為人口在增加,資源在減少 some people feel that it is important to save as much money as possible 有人認為儘可能存更多錢很重要 is this a good idea 這是個好主意嗎? i think saving money is a good idea because it helps people to lead a successful life 我認為存錢是個好主意,因為它幫助人們過上成功的生活 but in order to make the economy flow, money needs to be spent 但為了讓經濟運作,錢需要被花出去 so i think it's better if someone tries to spend enough money as well as save enough money 所以我覺得,最好是既花得夠多,又存得夠多 --- **00:08:02** let's talk about financial freedom 我們來談談財務自由 what does it mean to have financial freedom 擁有財務自由意味著什麼 having financial freedom means a person doesn't have to worry about making money for sustenance needs like food, shelter, or clothing 擁有財務自由意味著一個人不用擔心賺錢來滿足如食物、住所或衣服等基本需求 and they don't have to work every day in order to meet these needs 也不用每天工作來滿足這些需求 and they can have enough money to last them a lifetime 他們可以擁有足夠的錢,維持一輩子 what are ways that people achieve financial freedom 人們實現財務自由的方法有哪些 i think there are so many ways to achieve it 我認為有很多方法 like they can have a successful business 比如說,他們可以經營成功的生意 just like the idea that i've mentioned before starting the online fashion competition 就像我之前提到的那個在線時尚比賽的點子 or just simply being lucky or winning a lot of money 或者僅僅是幸運或贏得很多錢 if a person has reached financial freedom 如果一個人已經實現了財務自由 what is a good way to invest their time afterwards 之後投資時間的好方法是什麼 i hope that one day i'll be in a position to really have to concern myself about that 我希望有一天我能處於那樣的地位,真的不用擔心這個問題 but jokes aside 但開玩笑的 i personally think that people need to invest their money and their time once 我個人認為,人們需要一次性投資他們的錢和時間 they are no longer concerned about anything financially 一旦不再擔心經濟問題 they can actually do something like philanthropy helping people and nature 他們可以做一些事情,比如慈善,幫助人和自然 also maybe starting a charity to empower people to lead a healthy life 也許可以創立慈善機構,幫助人們過上健康的生活 that is the end of part three 這就是第三部分的結束 that concludes the speaking section of the exam 這標誌著考試的口語部分結束 you will see your mark online in about two days

answers all of the questions giving explanations and often including examples to make clear what she is explaining 在第三部分,Jalil是個專家,因為她回答所有問題,並給出解釋,經常包括例子來闡明她的說明 her examples link the information by reflecting back on some of her part to cue card response about fashion and business as a good source of making money 她的例子通過回顧她在卡片部分關於時尚和商業的回答來聯繫資訊,這是賺錢的好途徑 she uses a broad range of vocabulary like consumerism and she is able to bring about logical answers for her explanations 她使用了廣泛的詞彙,比如“消費主義”,並能提出合邏輯的回答來解釋 when you watch this video again pay attention to how jalil uses common modern day concepts that are well known around the world to explain herself 當你再次觀看這個影片時,請注意Jalil如何運用一些在世界各地都很熟悉的現代概念來自我闡述 such as saying that in the past investments into property and the stock market were popular 例如說,過去投資房地產和股市很受歡迎 however these days people tend to invest in cryptocurrencies and online businesses 然而,這些天人們更傾向於投資加密貨幣和線上企業 make sure to use your worldly knowledge especially in part three 一定要善用你的世界知識,特別是在第三部分 don't overthink it think simple 不要想太複雜,簡單就好 simple is not easy but you can do it with practice 簡單不代表容易,但只要練習你就可以做到 good luck the next time use it your ielts exam for more video
