📝 Trascrizione dialogo IELTS Speaking
The old Victoria Hotel closed two years ago. The council now plans to renovate the building into mixed-use housing and community space. It will convert the former hotel into twenty affordable flats and a community room. The council has hired Treader Ltd to lead the work after a competitive tender. The Treader team will begin on site in April next year. The project is scheduled to take around 14 months to renovate interiors and install energy-efficient heating. Costs are estimated at 3.2 million pounds, funded by the council and by private investors. Ground floor plans include a cafe and a small shop to serve residents. Planners emphasise they intend to preserve the original facade rather than demolish the structure. Some locals mistakenly believe the building will be knocked down or turned into a museum, so the council has held public meetings to correct these rumours. Project managers add that the conversion will create jobs during construction and deliver long-term benefits for the local economy. The council stresses that renovating the old hotel keeps the street character while providing much-needed housing.

Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:

5
Why does the council want to preserve the original facade?
Risposta Sbagliata

Spiegazione:
The passage explains that renovating the old hotel keeps the street character while providing housing, so preserving the facade is intended to maintain heritage appearance. Options B, C and D contradict the idea of preservation or are not supported by the passage.

Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:

In the phrase preserve the original facade, what does facade most nearly mean?

Facade refers to the front exterior of a building. The passage contrasts preserving the facade with demolishing the structure, so options B, C and D are incorrect meanings in this context.
