Proposed changes

Welcome everyone.

Thanks for coming to this information evening.

The purpose of this meeting is to give you a chance to learn more about the road and rail improvement project.

We've identified several problem areas and we've come up with some changes that we think will improve the local environment.

For the shared access paths, by those I mean the paths shared by both bikes and pedestrians, we plan to turn these into open areas with grass around them.

Cyclists and pedestrians need to be able to see each other clearly to avoid any accidents.

So we've decided to remove the large native trees from the area for that reason.

Now along the highway we want to put trees that are native to this area to add shade and make it more attractive.

We thought possibly the spotted gum which grows naturally here.

Now I know those of you who live in the housing estate are disturbed by the sound of traffic nearby.

We are aiming to solve this problem by constructing a wall between the estate and the road and possibly in the future we might consider adding some artwork to it.

We think this will be quite an effective solution.

Moving on now to the local roads we want to encourage more public transport use and solve some of our traffic problems.

So we're going to add a considerable number of stops to the bus routes that run along those roads.

Just finally as a way of thanking the community for their cooperation we plan to make the picnic area in the park near the bus terminal more attractive.

So we're adding some colourful new rose beds that gardeners will be putting in at the completion of the project.

Before you hear the rest of the talk you have some time to look at questions 16 to 20.

Now listen and answer questions 16 to 20.

Now I'd like to give you more information about the renovations to Richlands train station.

Can you all see a copy of the plan?

We envisage Richlands station as more than just a train station.

It'll be a transport hub linking all forms of transport in the area.

To this end we're building an underground park and ride car park so commuters can drive to the station, park and then ride to work on the train.

That's the entrance to it on the corner of Progress and Garden Road.

You can drive into it from Progress Road.

Now on the Progress Road side of the site on the top left of your map is where we plan to put the bus interchange.

Commuters will have direct access to the platform from the bus interchange via a covered walkway.

Cycling is an important part of our city's transport plan so cyclists will also be fully catered for with 80 new bicycle lockers.

You can see where they are on the plan in the bottom left hand corner next to the bike path.

Cyclists can ride to the station, store their bikes in the lockers and board the train.

Oh and I forgot the most important thing.

You'll even be able to shower at the station after your bike ride as we're installing showers between the toilets and the platform.

We'll also install a fountain at the station to make the area more attractive.

You can see it in the centre of the plan and between the fountain and the ticket machine we're putting in a lift for our elderly and disabled passengers.

They will be able to buy their ticket then pass directly to the platform via the lift.

So I hope that gives you a much better idea of the new facilities that will be available at Richlands station.

Now we would like your feedback about the project so...

Giải thích chi tiết

Hello Dolbie 🤩 Cùng chinh phục câu hỏi này nhé 😁

🌱 Đọc hiểu câu hỏi: Shared access paths → Đây là các con đường dùng chung cho cả người đi bộ và người đi xe đạp. Hãy chú ý thông tin nói về sự thay đổi dự kiến cho loại đường này. Các từ khóa trong đáp án sẽ được paraphrase trong audio, vì vậy hãy chú ý nghe thông tin tương tự như: grass, area, open space, clear visibility...

▶️ Bắt đầu nghe ở: "For the shared access paths…"

☺️ Giải thích:

Trong bài nghe, người nói đề cập rõ: "we plan to turn these into open areas with grass around them." (biến chúng thành khu vực mở với cỏ xung quanh).
Đáp án phù hợp là "E create new grassy area" (tạo ra khu vực cỏ mới).

✅ Đáp án đúng: E

🧐 DOLBIE lưu ý: ❌ D plant native trees: => Người nói có đề cập đến cây nhưng là việc loại bỏ cây đi, không phải trồng cây mới, nên đây là thông tin ngược lại hoàn toàn.

❌ F build a noise barrier: => Đây là đáp án dành cho một khu vực khác (housing estate), không phù hợp với đường dùng chung cho người đi bộ và xe đạp.

Chúc Dolbie học tốt và tự tin hơn trong bài thi IELTS nha 🥳💪
