IELTS Listening: 'Street Play Scheme' ⛹️‍♂️⛹🏻‍♀️🚗

IELTS Listening: 'Street Play Scheme' ⛹️‍♂️⛹🏻‍♀️🚗

This is a really useful Part 2 IELTS Listening (Book 15) about a community that closed their road to traffic so that the children could play safely outside.

It practises Multiple Choice and Choosing from a list.

Useful vocab:

'the idea caught on' = the idea became very popular in other places

'give it a go' = try it

Useful grammar:

Present Perfect vs Past Simple

'The scheme's been up and running for 3 years' = 'The Street Paly Scheme first took place 3 years ago'.

'Be able to' with conditionals

'We'd love to be able to close our road for longer'.

Conditionals

  • 'People can use their cars as long as they drive at under 20kph'.
  • 'They're happy to see children outside - even if it does get quite noisy'.
  • 'Kids are getting fresh air, even if they're not doing anything energetic'.

Past Perfect

  • As we'd predicted, air quality was better, but what I hadn't expected was how much quieter it would be.

Academic Task 1 Vocabulary

  • 'Sales in the shops went up considerably'.

Writing Task 2: talking about benefits/outcomes

  • develop confidence
  • get fresh air
  • get to know people in the street
  • air quality was significantly better/less air pollution
  • much quieter/less noise pollution
  • they felt safer/improved safety

IELTS Reading: How did writing begin? 🏺🏺🏺

IELTS Reading: How did writing begin? 🏺🏺🏺

On a scale of 1 - 10 in terms of difficulty, this is a 10 sorry 😐!! So if you’re aiming for a 7/8 it’s worth a listen, but please don’t feel discouraged by it! Focus on the strategy rather than the answers in this example. The questions are perfectly divided according to the text structure (‘problem’/‘solutions’) (problem = no-one knows; solution = lots of theories).
