📝 Transcription dialogue IELTS Speaking
I want to talk about how cities change. Recently our council proposed a redevelopment for the waterfront. They say it will modernize the area and create more jobs. Officials promised not to renege on plans to protect the old park and its trees. Yet last month they did renege on a smaller pledge about a community garden. If they renege repeatedly, public trust will be damaged. The designers suggested they might dismantle the old bandstand to make room for a glass pavilion. They plan to dismantle a few peripheral structures as well, according to the brief. Planners also say the scheme will curb traffic through better signals. But measures to curb pollution are not detailed. A consultant argued that some updates could mutilate the historical façade. I worry that modern extensions will mutilate original stonework beyond recognition. Officials insist they will only remove ten sculptures. However a leaked schedule lists thirty items to be taken away, which is worrying. They claim construction will take six months, while a neighbourhood petition stated it would last two years. My view is cautious. I support thoughtful upgrades. But I oppose rushed projects that dismantle character or mutilate heritage. We must curb excess, and demand the council not renege on clear promises.
📝 📚 Questions de pratique IELTS
1
What did officials promise not to do at the start of the plan?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
A
Explication:
Correct: The speaker says officials 'promised not to renege on plans to protect the old park and its trees.' Option B is wrong because the bandstand, not a glass pavilion, was mentioned as possibly being dismantled. Option C is wrong because officials said they'd remove ten sculptures, not thirty; thirty came from a leaked schedule. Option D is wrong because planners said the scheme would 'curb traffic through better signals,' not 'curb traffic entirely.'
2
Which structure is explicitly mentioned as possibly being dismantled?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
A
Explication:
Correct: The passage states that designers 'might dismantle the old bandstand.' Option B is incorrect because the library is not mentioned. Option C is incorrect; no museum is referred to. Option D is incorrect because the community garden was the subject of a previous pledge that was reneged on, not something described as being dismantled.
3
According to officials, how many sculptures would be removed?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
A
Explication:
Correct: Officials 'insist they will only remove ten sculptures.' Option B is incorrect because thirty is the number listed in a leaked schedule, not the official claim. Option C is not mentioned. Option D is incorrect because officials did say they would remove some sculptures (ten).
4
What can be inferred about the speaker's attitude toward the redevelopment?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
A
Explication:
Correct: The speaker says 'I support thoughtful upgrades' but also expresses worries about rushed projects, trust, and discrepancies, showing conditional support. Option B is wrong because the speaker does accept 'thoughtful upgrades.' Option C is wrong; the speaker knows about promises and notes when the council reneged. Option D is wrong because the speaker opposes rushed demolition and mutilation, not excited by it.
5
Why does the speaker mention the leaked schedule listing thirty items?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
A
Explication:
Correct: The leaked schedule showing thirty items contrasts with officials' claim of removing only ten, illustrating inconsistency. Option B is wrong because a leaked schedule suggests a lack of transparency, not praise. Option C is wrong because the leaked schedule lists items to be taken away, not to remain. Option D is incorrect; cost is not discussed in relation to the leaked schedule.
6
What is the best meaning of 'mutilate' as used in the passage?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
A
Explication:
Correct: The speaker fears that updates 'could mutilate the historical façade,' meaning they could severely damage or disfigure it. Option B is wrong; 'mutilate' does not mean to paint carefully. Option C is incorrect; it does not mean to close. Option D is wrong because the term conveys harm rather than improvement.
