📝 Trascrizione dialogo IELTS Speaking
Three years ago I began a small community garden on a vacant lot behind our library. It was an experiment in neighbourhood cooperation. We had optimism from the start. That optimism helped when practical problems arrived. On opening day there was a commotion as delivery trucks arrived with soil and benches. The commotion lasted about an hour and then volunteers organised everything. To get permission we had to overleap several bureaucratic hurdles. We found ways to overleap red tape by presenting clear plans and talking to the council. A prolix council member gave a long speech at the ribbon cutting. His prolix remarks were polite but they tired some of the younger volunteers. During the first summer a heatwave made many seedlings shrivel despite our best efforts. If plants don't get water their leaves will shrivel quickly and die. We also learned that optimism is not blind hope. That optimism was practical; it kept people turning up at weekend shifts. For a while there were rumours that hundreds attended the opening, though only about two hundred actually came. Small setbacks caused commotion on a few afternoons, but steady work and less talk kept the project moving.
📝 📚 Domande pratica IELTS
1
How long ago did the speaker begin the community garden project?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
B
Spiegazione:
The passage begins: 'Three years ago I began a small community garden.' Options A, C and D are incorrect because they contradict this explicit detail.
2
What caused the initial commotion on opening day?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
C
Spiegazione:
The speaker says: 'On opening day there was a commotion as delivery trucks arrived with soil and benches.' The other options are plausible distractions but are not mentioned in the passage.
3
What did the speaker have to 'overleap' to start the garden?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
B
Spiegazione:
The speaker explicitly states they 'had to overleap several bureaucratic hurdles' and 'overleap red tape'. Options A, C and D are unrelated and not mentioned.
4
What happened to many seedlings during the first summer?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
C
Spiegazione:
The passage says: 'During the first summer a heatwave made many seedlings shrivel.' The other options contradict this factual detail or introduce events not described.
5
What can be inferred about the speaker's opinion of the council member's speech?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
B
Spiegazione:
The speaker describes the council member as 'prolix' and adds that 'his prolix remarks ... tired some of the younger volunteers.' This implies annoyance or fatigue due to length. Options A, C and D are inconsistent with that description.
6
Why, according to the speaker, was optimism important for the project?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
B
Spiegazione:
The speaker says 'That optimism was practical; it kept people turning up at weekend shifts.' This indicates optimism sustained participation. Options A, C and D exaggerate or contradict the passage: optimism wasn't sufficient by itself, it didn't prevent setbacks, and they did talk to the council to overleap red tape.
7
In the passage, what is the best meaning of the word 'prolix'?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
B
Spiegazione:
The context: 'A prolix council member gave a long speech' makes clear that 'prolix' means long-winded. Option A is the opposite, and C and D do not match the passage's use.
