Listen to this dialogue between Andre and Yuriko as they talk about their new jobs. See if you can pick out the 4 IELTS vocabulary words as you listen. <\/p>\n<h3>Dialogue Part 1<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Wow, it\u2019s so good to see you Yuriko. How long has it been? Eight months?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Yeah eight months\u2026I\u2019ve been traveling a lot for work. But I\u2019m so glad we could get lunch while I\u2019m in town! I\u2019m flying out again on Friday. It\u2019s so hard to fit everything into my schedule these days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Sounds like it. So tell me about this new job. Last time I saw you, I think you were still a raft guide in Colorado\u2026?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Well, I graduated at the end of last May, and that\u2019s when I started the guiding job. But that was just for the summer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Remind me what your degree was in again?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: I did a Bachelor of Arts in Environmental Science and Sustainable Agriculture.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Oh yeah, I remember now. Okay, so you were a raft guide for the summer\u2026was that in the Grand Canyon?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Yes, we were in the Grand Canyon. It was such an amazing opportunity. As you know, I\u2019ve spent a lot of time in the backcountry, but there\u2019s no place on earth quite like the Grand Canyon. I really got to know the land. But the National Parks Service is facing a lot of challenges…it was so sad to see how fast the erosion of the canyons is progressing. The way we\u2019re treating the land really isn\u2019t sustainable. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: So why did you leave that job?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Oh, that kind of guiding is just seasonal work, and I needed to be making money year-round. I would love to go back again, but I\u2019m pretty locked in to my current job for now. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, so tell me about this new job!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Well my official job title is Environmental Sustainability Consultant. I work as a part of a larger consulting firm of about thirty-five people. We\u2019re contracted out to help companies create plans and programs that will reduce their negative impact on the environment…things like bringing down their emissions, properly disposing of their waste, cutting down on pollution…that sort of stuff. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: And that has you traveling a lot? How do you like that lifestyle?<\/p>\n<p>Yuriko: Yeah, I\u2019ll go to the headquarters, or different worksites, and get a feel for what sort of policies the company already has in place. From there we can develop a plan for the areas where they may be able to improve. It\u2019s really important to get facetime with the people on the ground, and I love seeing new places…but it can be exhausting to be on the road all the time. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: But you like the work, overall?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: It was a difficult transition for me at first, of course. Going from being out on the river every day to a lot of paperwork and corporate stuff and waiting in airports. As a raft guide, you get to be out in nature, but you\u2019re also seeing the negative effects humans are having on the environment\u2026the dams, and the pollution, the trash in the river…and you can\u2019t do anything about it. At least at this job I feel like I\u2019m really making a difference. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: It does bother me that I\u2019m flying so much though\u2014from an environmental perspective. Did you know that one round-trip flight from New York City to Los Angeles produces the same amount of greenhouse gas emissions as ten weeks of driving a car? The carbon footprint of air travel is huge.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Oh wow, I knew planes used a lot of fuel, but I didn\u2019t realize it was that much. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Yeah. Hopefully as technology advances we\u2019ll be able to create more sustainable ways of traveling\u2026.but what about you, what are you up to these days? Still leading backpacking trips?<\/p>\n<h3>Midroll<\/h3>\n<p>Before we hear from Andre, let\u2019s pause for a word from Magoosh.<\/p>\n<p>Do you want a great IELTS score?<br \/>\nMagoosh can help! <\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what you\u2019ll get with Magoosh:<br \/>\nIn-depth video lessons that cover concepts, pitfalls, and shortcuts<br \/>\nOver 200 practice questions to help you prepare for your exam<br \/>\n24\/7 email access to a team of remote tutors ready to answer your questions<br \/>\nAre you ready to improve your score and get into your dream program?

It\u2019s definitely a for-profit organization, but I like the work. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: What kind of trips have you been leading?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: I specialize in the Southwest. So we\u2019re doing one to three month trips out in the desert and canyonlands, which is a whole lot of hiking, as well as courses on outdoor survival skills and ecology. We teach students some of the same things you were talking about: the erosion of the land from farming and development, and how the desert ecosystems have been impacted by people. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: I actually did my college thesis on the erosion caused by industrial farming practices in the parts of Arizona that get their water from the dams. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Oh wow, I didn\u2019t know that…you should definitely pass that along to me, I\u2019d love to share some of that information with my students. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: I\u2019d be happy to. Helping businesses lower their emissions is obviously important, but it\u2019s so vital to connect with the younger generation and teach them about the land. How does that quote about love and conservation go? <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: It\u2019s \u201cPeople protect what they love, they love what they understand, and they understand what they\u2019re taught.\u201d Jacques Cousteau. Good quote for a teacher to know [chuckles]. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: [Laughs] Yeah, you were ready for that one. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: So how\u2019s your family doing?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: They\u2019re good. My younger sister is about to start university, so I think my parents are getting a little emotional. Empty nest and all that. I know they miss me, but they respect my work. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, I mean it\u2019s hard to criticize your daughter when she\u2019s fighting corporate pollution. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: I do what I can. How about you, are you still with Amelia?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, we\u2019re good…we\u2019re good. We just got a place together on the west side. It\u2019s a big step for me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Wow, that\u2019s amazing! I\u2019m so happy for you!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, the idea of moving in with someone has always been a bit scary to me…but when you think about it, we\u2019re both out leading trips for at least six months out of the year. And those six months don\u2019t necessarily overlap. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: So Amelia works for the Outdoor Leadership School as well?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, we met as co-trip leaders actually. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: That\u2019s very sweet. <\/p>\n<p>[phone rings]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Oh, sorry, I\u2019ve got to take this. But I\u2019ll be right back, don\u2019t go anywhere!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: No worries, take your time! I\u2019ll get another coffee. <\/p>\n<h3>Outro<\/h3>\n<p>So how did you do?

Listen to this dialogue between Andre and Yuriko as they talk about their new jobs. See if you can pick out the 4 IELTS vocabulary words as you listen. <\/p>\n<h3>Dialogue Part 1<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Wow, it\u2019s so good to see you Yuriko. How long has it been? Eight months?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Yeah eight months\u2026I\u2019ve been traveling a lot for work. But I\u2019m so glad we could get lunch while I\u2019m in town! I\u2019m flying out again on Friday. It\u2019s so hard to fit everything into my schedule these days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Sounds like it. So tell me about this new job. Last time I saw you, I think you were still a raft guide in Colorado\u2026?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Well, I graduated at the end of last May, and that\u2019s when I started the guiding job. But that was just for the summer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Remind me what your degree was in again?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: I did a Bachelor of Arts in Environmental Science and Sustainable Agriculture.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Oh yeah, I remember now. Okay, so you were a raft guide for the summer\u2026was that in the Grand Canyon?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Yes, we were in the Grand Canyon. It was such an amazing opportunity. As you know, I\u2019ve spent a lot of time in the backcountry, but there\u2019s no place on earth quite like the Grand Canyon. I really got to know the land. But the National Parks Service is facing a lot of challenges…it was so sad to see how fast the erosion of the canyons is progressing. The way we\u2019re treating the land really isn\u2019t sustainable. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: So why did you leave that job?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Oh, that kind of guiding is just seasonal work, and I needed to be making money year-round. I would love to go back again, but I\u2019m pretty locked in to my current job for now. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, so tell me about this new job!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Well my official job title is Environmental Sustainability Consultant. I work as a part of a larger consulting firm of about thirty-five people. We\u2019re contracted out to help companies create plans and programs that will reduce their negative impact on the environment…things like bringing down their emissions, properly disposing of their waste, cutting down on pollution…that sort of stuff. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: And that has you traveling a lot? How do you like that lifestyle?<\/p>\n<p>Yuriko: Yeah, I\u2019ll go to the headquarters, or different worksites, and get a feel for what sort of policies the company already has in place. From there we can develop a plan for the areas where they may be able to improve. It\u2019s really important to get facetime with the people on the ground, and I love seeing new places…but it can be exhausting to be on the road all the time. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: But you like the work, overall?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: It was a difficult transition for me at first, of course. Going from being out on the river every day to a lot of paperwork and corporate stuff and waiting in airports. As a raft guide, you get to be out in nature, but you\u2019re also seeing the negative effects humans are having on the environment\u2026the dams, and the pollution, the trash in the river…and you can\u2019t do anything about it. At least at this job I feel like I\u2019m really making a difference. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: It does bother me that I\u2019m flying so much though\u2014from an environmental perspective. Did you know that one round-trip flight from New York City to Los Angeles produces the same amount of greenhouse gas emissions as ten weeks of driving a car? The carbon footprint of air travel is huge.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Oh wow, I knew planes used a lot of fuel, but I didn\u2019t realize it was that much. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Yeah. Hopefully as technology advances we\u2019ll be able to create more sustainable ways of traveling\u2026.but what about you, what are you up to these days? Still leading backpacking trips?<\/p>\n<h3>Midroll<\/h3>\n<p>Before we hear from Andre, let\u2019s pause for a word from Magoosh.<\/p>\n<p>Do you want a great IELTS score?<br \/>\nMagoosh can help! <\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what you\u2019ll get with Magoosh:<br \/>\nIn-depth video lessons that cover concepts, pitfalls, and shortcuts<br \/>\nOver 200 practice questions to help you prepare for your exam<br \/>\n24\/7 email access to a team of remote tutors ready to answer your questions<br \/>\nAre you ready to improve your score and get into your dream program?

It\u2019s definitely a for-profit organization, but I like the work. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: What kind of trips have you been leading?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: I specialize in the Southwest. So we\u2019re doing one to three month trips out in the desert and canyonlands, which is a whole lot of hiking, as well as courses on outdoor survival skills and ecology. We teach students some of the same things you were talking about: the erosion of the land from farming and development, and how the desert ecosystems have been impacted by people. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: I actually did my college thesis on the erosion caused by industrial farming practices in the parts of Arizona that get their water from the dams. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Oh wow, I didn\u2019t know that…you should definitely pass that along to me, I\u2019d love to share some of that information with my students. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: I\u2019d be happy to. Helping businesses lower their emissions is obviously important, but it\u2019s so vital to connect with the younger generation and teach them about the land. How does that quote about love and conservation go? <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: It\u2019s \u201cPeople protect what they love, they love what they understand, and they understand what they\u2019re taught.\u201d Jacques Cousteau. Good quote for a teacher to know [chuckles]. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: [Laughs] Yeah, you were ready for that one. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: So how\u2019s your family doing?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: They\u2019re good. My younger sister is about to start university, so I think my parents are getting a little emotional. Empty nest and all that. I know they miss me, but they respect my work. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, I mean it\u2019s hard to criticize your daughter when she\u2019s fighting corporate pollution. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: I do what I can. How about you, are you still with Amelia?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, we\u2019re good…we\u2019re good. We just got a place together on the west side. It\u2019s a big step for me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: Wow, that\u2019s amazing! I\u2019m so happy for you!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, the idea of moving in with someone has always been a bit scary to me…but when you think about it, we\u2019re both out leading trips for at least six months out of the year. And those six months don\u2019t necessarily overlap. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: So Amelia works for the Outdoor Leadership School as well?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Yeah, we met as co-trip leaders actually. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: That\u2019s very sweet. <\/p>\n<p>[phone rings]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andre<\/strong>: Oh, sorry, I\u2019ve got to take this. But I\u2019ll be right back, don\u2019t go anywhere!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yuriko<\/strong>: No worries, take your time! I\u2019ll get another coffee. <\/p>\n<h3>Outro<\/h3>\n<p>So how did you do?
