IELTS雅思高分技巧聽力測驗第二部分

在IELTS雅思聽力測驗的部份，你會聽到一段對話，型式為一個人直接對另一個(群)人說話。對話內容可能是不正式的，例如，一個導遊在跟一群遊客 說話；或者是較正式的，例如一個錄音的訊息。話題是日常生活裡大家會聊的事，所以你不需要具備專業的知識。所有你需要用來答題的資訊都在播放的錄音裡。今 天的範例，則為截取一個談論關於如何塑身的廣播節目。

IELTS雅思聽力測驗題型: 完成表格

對於這類型的題目，你必須要從錄音內容裡找出答案，以填寫在表格的空格裡，完成表格。

在你開始聽錄音內容前:

1. 詳細看清楚題目說明，看看你可以在格子裡寫幾個字 (通常最多為三個字)。
2. 仔細看看表格，大略知道整個主題在講什麼。
3. 看看每一個空格，想想看你需要什麼資訊來完成每一格。例如，一個價錢或一個名字；如果有可能，試著想想可能的答案。
4. 記得要檢查你的拼字是否正確

Choosing the right sport

Presenter:… next on the show, we are we lucky enough to be joined by Dr. Randal McLeish., an eminent sports therapist who has worked with a number of top athletes, including the British Olympic Equestrian team. But today he's going to tell us how we can get off the couch and start to get into shape for the New Year.

Randy:Thank you kindly Jennifer, it's a great pleasure to be here on the show. Now, I want to begin today by looking at some of the most popular ways of getting fit, and how you can get started.

The first activity seems obvious: walking. We do it every day, but unfortunately, nowadays, most people don't walk enough. The great advantage of walking is that it costs absolutely nothing to do. You can also go out your own pace and vary the intensity to match your fitness level. Another advantage is that it's a great way to get out and enjoy beautiful scenery, so what are you waiting for?

If you want to try a more intensive activity, you could try running; possibly the ultimate way to get fit. And almost anyone healthy can do it, although if you have a history of chest pain or high blood pressure, you should consult your doctor first. Like walking, running is very cheap. All you need is a good pair of trainers, or running shoes, which should cost you no more than about £50. But remember, when you go running, it is essential to warm up properly before you begin, otherwise you run the risk of seriously injuring yourself.

Another popular, inexpensive way to get fit is swimming. Most towns and now have leisure centres, so it should only cost you about £2 or so to go to a pool any time of year. Swimming is an excellent way to exercise most of your major muscle groups, and if you increase your pace, you can get a great aerobic workout, too. If you can keep going for a longer period, you'll also find it's a great fat-burning exercise.

Possibly the best exercise for your heart is cycling, as cyclists are half as likely to have heart problems as non-cyclists! So if you cycle to the shops, not only are you helping the environment, you are also extending your life expectancy. It's also fairly cheap, with a good mountain bike costing as little as £200. A lot of us do already have bikes; there are an estimated 27 million in the UK alone. The problem is a lot of us never actually use them.

If you fancy something more competitive, what about trying racket sports, like tennis or badminton? The great thing about these is that they are multiple sprint sports – in other words, the tax all your energy systems at once, and require skill, stamina and strength. If you are very out of shape, there is a higher chance of injury with these sports, so you need to be relatively healthy if you are going to try them, and make sure you warm up properly first. Equipment and club fees can make this a more expensive activity, but to get started, you should be able to buy a couple of fairly good quality tennis rackets and a set of balls for around £60, and a lot of public tennis courts are free or very cheap to rent.

Now, moving onto contemporary dance, …
