Nice.
Hello, lovely, I'm Maria.
My name is Rory and we're the hosts of the IELTS Speaking for Success podcast.
The podcast that aims to help you improve your speaking skills as well as your listening skills along the way.
We start in this podcast to give you a grandma and vocabulary for your high-IELTS school.
Maria, can you hear that?
What?
It's like a weird noise.
No, I can't, but I'd like to hear you talking about noise.
Oh, is it the subject of today's episode?
Yes, in Speaking for the On, they can ask you questions about noisy.
Do any noises bother you?
I mean, context is everything, but generally I can't stand repetitive, high-pitched noises, like those in alarm clocks.
Although I suppose that's rather the point of them.
What else?
I don't like the shrieking of seagulls either.
It's horrendous, especially where I live, although that's the price you pay for living next to the sea.
What kind of noise do you come across every day?
Well, we already talked about bird calls, and we live near a railway, so you can hear the trains rumbling past when they get started.
What else? You can also hear the gates clicking open and closed as people come and go about their business.
What sounds do you like?
Oh, one of my friends has this great setup in his house where the lights raise, and then the radio turns on, but it doesn't turn on full blast.
It's sort of the chatter of the radio rises in volume over a prolonged period of time to a normal level.
So that's really nice. That's a great combination.
What else?
Oh, having low-fi hip hop playing in the background, not just in the morning, but generally is a really good thing.
I quite like the sound of dogs barking when they're playing, and people laughing as well. That's quite pleasant as well, as long as it's not like I say,
really high volume in your face or in your ear kind of thing.
Do you like to stay in a noisy place?
Does anyone, I mean, outside of a club or something like that, I can imagine a situation in which people would voluntarily
decide to be a Maristone Cacophony for a prolonged period of time. That would drive me absolutely nuts.
Are there any quiet places in your city?
Oh, plenty. I think the quietest would probably be something like the yoga studio or there are various churches and other places of worship,
which are quite tranquil.
Where else?
Well, there's lots of parks in the middle of the city, which you would think wouldn't prevent the racket from sort of sounding across them,
but because they have lots of trees, it breaks up the noise, which is quite impressive, no, I think about it.
Tillis, now we have our premium episodes for you where Rory and I are discussing fresh current speaking topics,
Part 2 and Part 3.
This week on our premium, Rory is talking about a rule that's important in his school or work.
And in speaking Part 3, we are discussing rules in general.
And in the description, do check it out.
Hey, so noise.
Are there any synonyms to noise?
Because we say noises, I dislike noise, noisy places.
There are plenty of synonyms.
Because we use specific words to name specific noises and sounds, de-listener.
And this topic, you show off your super vocabulary using specific precise words for specific sounds.
Some noises bother me.
They are annoying.
Like, I'm annoyed when I hear something, right?
Oh, this is really annoying.
So we usually say, it bothers me, annoying noises.
I hate repetitive high pitched noises.
I pitch like this.
So low, duged and high pitched.
Repetitive like they repeat over and over again.
I hate alarm clocks.
And do you remember this noise?
The slurping noise.
So I dislike slurping sounds.
Or I dislike slurping noises.
Or slurping noises are really annoying, de-listener.
Also, I'm annoyed when I hear shrieking seagulls.
Seagulls like birds.
They're like high pitched noises.
And seagulls shriek.
She can say that.
I find shrieking.
Seagulls really annoying.
Or the noise is horrendous.
Herendous is like horrible, terrible, horrendous.
Or slurping sounds are horrendous.
Sorry.
Also, you can say that I dislike whining babies.
Or whining children.
Rory, who are they?
I dislike whining people to be honest.
But that's like, that's when people complain.
Or winging, that's another one.
But both of these things describe noises or the kind of talk,
which is extremely irritating.
I dislike dogs barking.
I dislike dogs who are barking.
Or fingernails on a blackboard.
You know, there's some noises which make you just like fingernails on a board.
What about you?
Do you have any feelings for certain sounds?
Not for sounds.
Not unless it's like right next to me, in which case then I get goosebumps.
Like you're describing.
That's the feeling of the rising dots on your skin.
What about a fork and a knife and a rubbed against a plate?
Oh, that's horrible.
But how often does that happen?
Not often, no.
But, deal with it.
You can use these nice words, right?
For example, like a fork rubbed against a plate.
Or a knife rubbed against a glass bottle.
Or like a clicking pens, for example.
Just like the sounds.
Annoying mobile ringtones.
Snoring, deal with some.

And noise you place or immersed in noise.
Immersed in noise.
Or I said immersed in cacophony.
But it's the same thing.
It's just there's noise all around.
You cannot hear yourself think.
Which is another expression for dealing with noise.
Or not dealing with it.
And it's just a generally unpleasant experience.
Cacophony means all different sounds.
They are very loud.
And you can't hear your thoughts.
And then you can say it could drive me nuts.
Like it really annoys me.
It irritates me.
It drives me crazy.
It drives me nuts.
So like noisy clubs drive me nuts.
Or another one noisy clubs drive me up the walls.
Or barking dogs drive me nuts.
Barking wolf dogs drive me up the wall.
Bennie.
The wreck it of the city rory.
What's this?
Rack it.
Well, it's just the general noise.
Usually unpleasant if it's a racket.
The gets made in a city like the sound of construction work.
People talking loudly.
Cut traffic.
Especially the horns blaring on cars.
That's kind of thing.
We can say quiet places.
So not noisy places.
The quietest place.
Another synonym is tranquil.
Tranquil places.
Like the antenna noises.
Everything is calm.
You feel peace.
Tranquil places.
So, Dillisoner, you watch till the very end.
And now the juicy joke.
I woke up last night from a noise somewhere in the house.
My husband turned to me and said,
it must be a thief.
Go downstairs and check.
So I went downstairs and checked every room.
But I couldn't find the thief.
I knew he was hiding there somewhere.
But where?
And then I remembered.
I don't have a husband.
Oh, that's creepy.
It's creepy, I just like.
Yeah, that's so.
Did you get that listener?
Should I explain it?
Roy, what do you think?
No, don't explain the joke.
It's like dissecting a frog.
The subject will die in the process.
Thank you for watching.
Bye.
Bye.
Bye.
Do any noises bother you?
I mean, context is everything.
But generally, I can't stand repetitive, high-pitched noises.
Like, those in alarm clocks.
Although I suppose that's rather the point of them.
And what else?
Oh, I don't like the shrieking of seagulls either.
It's horrendous, especially where I live.
Although that's the price you pay for living next to the sea.
What kind of noise do you come across every day?
Well, we already talked about bird calls.
And we live near a real way, so you can hear the trains rumbling past when they get started.
What else?
You can also hear the gates clicking open and closed as people come and go about their business.
What sounds do you like?
Oh, one of my friends has this great setup in his house where the lights raise.
And the radio turns on, but it doesn't turn on full blast.
It's sort of the chatter of the radio rises in volume over a prolonged period of time to a normal level.
So that's really nice.
That's a great combination.
What else?
I'm having low-fi hip-hop playing in the background, not just in the morning, but generally is a really good thing.
I quite like the sound of dog sparking when they're playing.
And people laughing as well.
That's quite pleasant as well.
As long as it's not like I say, really high volume in your face or in your ear kind of thing.
Do you like to stay in a noisy place?
Does anyone, I mean, outside of a club or something like that,
I can imagine a situation in which people would voluntarily, well,
decide to be a mersting cacophony for a prolonged period of time.
That would drive me absolutely nuts.
Are there any quiet places in your city?
Oh, plenty.
I think the quietest would probably be something like the yoga studio or there are various churches and other places of worship,
which are quite tranquil.
Where else?
Well, there's lots of parks in the middle of the city, which you would think wouldn't prevent the racket from sounding across them,
because they have lots of trees that break up the noise, which is quite impressive, no I think about it.
