📝 Transcription dialogue IELTS Speaking
Today I want to talk about how technology and social media shape public behaviour. I will mention both the tools and the people who use them. Many users are outspoken online. Some are outspoken about politics. Other people use profane language to get attention. Platforms try to moderate profane posts. Still, profane comments often slip through automated filters. Social media can amplify vice. By vice I mean gambling, addiction and other harmful habits. It can also magnify everyday vice, like compulsive scrolling. For some creators, the platform is literally a means of subsistence. Others earn subsistence-level income that barely covers living costs. Algorithms give laser-sharp targeting to advertisers. Some researchers also use laser sensors for eye-tracking studies of attention. Interestingly, one well-known platform reduced its character limit to 240 last year, and it set up a moderation team in Dublin. That detail is controversial. Critics say the claim about Dublin may not be accurate. The result, however, is that outspoken voices still gain traction. Companies sometimes respond with strict rules. But community enforcement is uneven. The consequence is that hateful speech and vice persist. We should study how technology can reduce harm without undermining free speech.
📝 📚 Questions de pratique IELTS
1
According to the speaker, what do some creators rely on social media for?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
A
Explication:
Correct: The speaker says 'For some creators, the platform is literally a means of subsistence.' Option B is wrong because the speaker contrasted subsistence with casual uses; option C is not mentioned; option D is unrelated to the passage.
2
What technology does the speaker mention researchers using for eye-tracking studies?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
A
Explication:
Correct: The passage states 'Some researchers also use laser sensors for eye-tracking studies of attention.' Microphones, GPS trackers and thermal cameras are not mentioned in relation to eye-tracking and are therefore incorrect.
3
Which character limit did the speaker claim a platform reduced to last year?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
B
Explication:
Correct: The speaker said 'reduced its character limit to 240 last year.' Option A (140) is a plausible distractor historically associated with platforms but not what the speaker said. Option C (280) and D (320) are not the figures mentioned.
4
Which city was mentioned as the location of the platform's moderation team?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
A
Explication:
Correct: The speaker mentioned that 'it set up a moderation team in Dublin.' The speaker also said that detail is controversial, but Dublin is the city named. The other cities are plausible moderation hubs but were not mentioned.
5
What can be inferred about the speaker's view of moderation on social media?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
B
Explication:
Correct: The speaker notes that 'Platforms try to moderate profane posts' but also that 'profane comments often slip through automated filters' and 'community enforcement is uneven,' indicating inconsistency. Option A and D are contradicted by those lines. Option C is too extreme; the speaker acknowledges moderation attempts.
6
What does the speaker imply about outspoken voices on social media?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
B
Explication:
Correct: The speaker says 'outspoken voices still gain traction' even though companies respond with rules. Option A and C are false given that traction occurs and bans are not stated. Option D is incorrect because the speaker explicitly says some are outspoken about politics.
7
In the passage, what is the best synonym for 'subsistence' as used by the speaker?
Réponse incorrecte
Réponse correcte:
B
Explication:
Correct: 'Subsistence' is used to mean a basic way to cover living costs; the passage contrasts 'subsistence-level income that barely covers living costs.' Option A (luxury) is the opposite. Option C (hobby) and D (extra income for travel) misrepresent the minimal, necessary nature implied by subsistence.
