📝 Trascrizione dialogo IELTS Speaking
I live beside a small river that has become an eyesore. Plastic and foam drift along the bank. I started a local clean-up campaign last spring. When I first described the plan at a coffee morning, people would giggle at the idea. They thought one person couldn't make a difference. A week later I heard a knock at my door. A neighbour offered help, and we began picking up waste. Teenagers sometimes giggle at the colourful posters we put up. Their laughter worried me at first. Then we organised a weekend event and many turned up. I fumbled through my notes when I spoke publicly, but I kept the message simple. Council members did not act fast. They seemed to fumble their response, blaming other departments. Meanwhile a nearby factory, which the town claimed closed in 2019, still emits steam when it rains. That detail surprised volunteers. I also mentioned a statistic that the town reduced single-use items by 60% in six months. That number impressed some and sounded exaggerated to others. Storms can knock trees into the river and make clean-up harder. I am certain local effort matters. Small actions can create a knock-on effect that changes habits over time.
📝 📚 Domande pratica IELTS
1
What was the speaker's initial reaction when people laughed at the campaign?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
B
Spiegazione:
Correct: The speaker says 'I fumbled through my notes when I spoke publicly, but I kept the message simple,' showing they continued and simplified their approach. A is wrong because the speaker did not give up; instead they organized events. C is wrong; there is no mention of the speaker laughing back. D is wrong because no hiring of a professional speaker is mentioned.
2
Which environmental problem is central to the passage?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
B
Spiegazione:
Correct: The speaker repeatedly describes plastic and foam drifting along the river and organising clean-ups, so river pollution is central. A is incorrect because while the factory emits steam, the main issue discussed is river litter. C and D are not mentioned in the passage.
3
When did the neighbour first show practical support?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
C
Spiegazione:
Correct: The passage states 'A week later I heard a knock at my door. A neighbour offered help...' so the neighbour showed support after knocking. A is wrong because volunteers turned up at the weekend event later; the neighbour's offer came earlier. B is wrong; the neighbour's arrival is not tied to a council meeting. D is wrong; the factory's alleged closure is unrelated to the neighbour's help.
4
What can be inferred about the teenagers who 'giggle at the colourful posters'?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
B
Spiegazione:
Correct: The phrase and context ('Their laughter worried me at first') imply the teenagers treated the campaign as unimportant or amusing. A is not supported; there is no evidence they joined. C is unsupported; no mention of them designing posters. D is unlikely; giggling suggests amusement rather than anger, and the speaker does not indicate they were angry.
5
What does the phrase 'knock-on effect' most likely mean in this passage?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
B
Spiegazione:
Correct: 'Knock-on effect' is used figuratively to mean that small actions can lead to wider changes over time. A is wrong because the phrase is metaphorical here, not physical. C is incorrect; it doesn't refer to literal knocking. D is wrong; there's no indication it's about penalties.
6
Why might some volunteers have found the '60% in six months' statistic suspicious?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
B
Spiegazione:
Correct: The passage says 'That number impressed some and sounded exaggerated to others,' so volunteers may have thought a 60% reduction in six months was implausible. A is irrelevant; the factory detail is separate. C is wrong; posters are mentioned as colourful but not described as ineffective. D is incorrect; the council did not ban clean-ups.
7
In this context, what is the best synonym for 'fumble' as used in the passage?
Risposta Sbagliata
Risposta Corretta:
B
Spiegazione:
Correct: The speaker says 'I fumbled through my notes' and 'Council members... fumble their response,' implying awkward or clumsy handling. A is the opposite of fumble. C (plan a detailed strategy) is not implied. D (throw away quickly) is unrelated.
