Listen to this dialogue between Maya and Gabrielle as they talk about learning to surf. See if you can pick out the 4 IELTS vocabulary words as you listen. \t<\/p>\n<h3>Dialogue Part 1<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: You know what I\u2019ve been thinking about a lot the past few weeks?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: What?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: I think it\u2019s time for us to properly learn how to surf. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, for sure! I would love to actually be able to surf. I really enjoyed that surf lesson we had in San Diego. I\u2019ve wanted to surf since I was in high school, but since I\u2019ve never had my own car, it\u2019s always seemed impossible to get a surfboard to and from the beach. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Well my new place is so close to the water…we could probably just walk with our boards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: That\u2019s true…that\u2019s true. So is that what made you decide that now is the time to finally learn to surf for real? <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Well, yeah, first of all, we\u2019re so close to the beach…it\u2019s not like in Oregon. Back then we\u2019d have to plan a whole weekend trip just to get to the coast.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, who has the time for that?! Especially when the beaches are always so chilly! Like it\u2019s not fun to hang out on the beach when it\u2019s cold, and I don\u2019t want to have to wear a full wetsuit just to get in the water. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Right. Do you remember the last time we went out to the Oregon coast? It was literally pouring down rain and sleet…the road was so icy I thought we\u2019d never even make it to the beach.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, that definitely made surfing seem way less appealing to me. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Right?! Anyway, yeah, so now that we\u2019ve been blessed with a house close to the beach and such beautiful, balmy weather, I think we should learn how to surf for real. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: That makes sense. It\u2019s just intimidating to start something new I guess…I hate being a beginner. Once I tried to learn how to ice skate, but I got really frustrated because there were all these little kids there who were extremely good, and I could barely stand up. It\u2019s just sort of embarrassing to be surrounded by people who are much better than you at the activity you\u2019re doing. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah I feel the same, but I think we really need to learn how to be okay with not being perfect at everything. That\u2019s the only way to learn new skills! You have to start somewhere. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah. You\u2019re right. So where do we start?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Well this weekend definitely isn\u2019t the time. Have you noticed how weird the weather has been?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, it\u2019s kind of strangely humid and overcast all of a sudden. Isn\u2019t there a word for that?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah, it\u2019s muggy. So the reason it went from being super hot and sunny to actually kind of chilly, and then overcast but hot and humid over the course of two days is because there\u2019s a tropical cyclone coming in from the north this week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Oh, I just remembered that Colin texted me last night to say that he couldn\u2019t sleep because it was so muggy up north where he\u2019s working this week. I haven\u2019t heard that word used a lot before. But I guess it\u2019s typical cyclone weather! Anyways, he also said that he\u2019s annoyed he has to be at work when the surf is so good down south right now. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah, exactly — so what\u2019s happening is that this cyclone is coming in from the ocean and heading down the coast this weekend, and that creates these specials winds, which I guess make the surf really huge. Everyone\u2019s heading down south to surf right now. And apparently these weather conditions only happen once every ten years or something.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Okay, I see. So there are some super special waves coming in right now, but they\u2019re probably too big for beginners like us. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: To be honest I don\u2019t think I would be able to get all the surfing gear together by this weekend anyways, so the cyclone doesn\u2019t really make a difference. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: True. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: But it is nice to have some overcast days for once. Not that I don\u2019t love the sunshine and the balmy beach weather, but it becomes kind of old after a few months. Plus I feel like I\u2019ve been getting sunburned every time I go outside. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: For sure. Well maybe we can try and find some surfboards next week? I\u2019ll be done with summer school after Thursday. <\/p>\n<h3>Midroll<\/h3>\n<p>Before we find out the rest of Maya and Gabrielle\u2019s surfing plans, 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 smart and fun remote tutors ready to answer your questions<br \/>\nAre you ready to improve your score and get into your dream program?

I think my aunt might have some extra ones at her house actually. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Oh that would be fantastic. I have no idea how much a surfboard costs, but I assume they\u2019re not cheap. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, I definitely saw at least one board the last time I was over at her place. And even if she only has one, we could probably borrow that one and then just split the cost of the second board.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Great, that works for me! Okay so, do you think that we will need wetsuits? The water here is pretty warm, but I assume it gets chilly when you\u2019re out in the water for a few hours at a time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve seen anyone in wetsuits. You probably stay warm from the physical activity…remember how it was in San Diego? The water wasn\u2019t all that warm, but you\u2019re moving constantly so it\u2019s not a problem. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: You\u2019re right…I probably will have to buy a one-piece swimsuit though. My bikini is fine for swimming, but it\u2019s probably not the best for getting knocked around in the waves. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, okay, let\u2019s go look for swimsuits this weekend. Wow my hair is so frizzy today, this humidity is really too much for me. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: I kind of like that it\u2019s muggy, it reminds me of when I was in Bali. But also I don\u2019t have to deal with the frizz because my hair is in braids, so I guess it\u2019s not as much of a problem for me. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: What would you say is your favorite kind of weather?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Hmm, I think it really depends. I just like variety. Obviously a mild balmy climate is the best, but like I said before, even that gets old after a while. And actually, I don\u2019t mind \u201cbad\u201d weather. It feels so nice and cozy to stay inside when there\u2019s really nasty rain or sleet. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Ugh but sleet is the worst! You don\u2019t drive, so you don\u2019t know what it\u2019s like to have to deal with the roads being icy. It\u2019s terrible. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah, I guess you\u2019re right. But you don\u2019t even have a car right now! Anyways I don\u2019t think the weather will even get that bad here in the winter, we\u2019re too far south. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, that\u2019s why I moved here! <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: That was a very good call. Okay so this weekend we\u2019ll get swimsuits, and you ask your aunt about the surfboards. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Sounds perfect. So do you think we should…I don\u2019t know…take lessons?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah, I think if I just tried to go out into the water without any instruction I wouldn\u2019t actually be able to surf at all. I just don\u2019t remember how to do it. And plus if we learn with bad form it\u2019ll make things more difficult later. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Okay, yeah, you\u2019re right. How much do you think lessons cost?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: No idea. How about I\u2019ll look into that, and you try to get us the boards. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Sweet, sounds like a plan. I\u2019m so excited that we\u2019re finally going to learn how to surf. I think this could be really great!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah, I\u2019ve always wanted to surf, I just never made the commitment before. But I think we\u2019re finally ready. Plus we can support each other through the difficult beginning part. It\u2019s always nice to have a friend to learn new skills with. I\u2019m so glad you want to do this with me!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Absolutely, I couldn\u2019t agree more. <\/p>\n<h3>Outro<\/h3>\n<p>So how did you do?

Listen to this dialogue between Maya and Gabrielle as they talk about learning to surf. See if you can pick out the 4 IELTS vocabulary words as you listen. \t<\/p>\n<h3>Dialogue Part 1<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: You know what I\u2019ve been thinking about a lot the past few weeks?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: What?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: I think it\u2019s time for us to properly learn how to surf. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, for sure! I would love to actually be able to surf. I really enjoyed that surf lesson we had in San Diego. I\u2019ve wanted to surf since I was in high school, but since I\u2019ve never had my own car, it\u2019s always seemed impossible to get a surfboard to and from the beach. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Well my new place is so close to the water…we could probably just walk with our boards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: That\u2019s true…that\u2019s true. So is that what made you decide that now is the time to finally learn to surf for real? <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Well, yeah, first of all, we\u2019re so close to the beach…it\u2019s not like in Oregon. Back then we\u2019d have to plan a whole weekend trip just to get to the coast.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, who has the time for that?! Especially when the beaches are always so chilly! Like it\u2019s not fun to hang out on the beach when it\u2019s cold, and I don\u2019t want to have to wear a full wetsuit just to get in the water. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Right. Do you remember the last time we went out to the Oregon coast? It was literally pouring down rain and sleet…the road was so icy I thought we\u2019d never even make it to the beach.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, that definitely made surfing seem way less appealing to me. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Right?! Anyway, yeah, so now that we\u2019ve been blessed with a house close to the beach and such beautiful, balmy weather, I think we should learn how to surf for real. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: That makes sense. It\u2019s just intimidating to start something new I guess…I hate being a beginner. Once I tried to learn how to ice skate, but I got really frustrated because there were all these little kids there who were extremely good, and I could barely stand up. It\u2019s just sort of embarrassing to be surrounded by people who are much better than you at the activity you\u2019re doing. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah I feel the same, but I think we really need to learn how to be okay with not being perfect at everything. That\u2019s the only way to learn new skills! You have to start somewhere. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah. You\u2019re right. So where do we start?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Well this weekend definitely isn\u2019t the time. Have you noticed how weird the weather has been?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, it\u2019s kind of strangely humid and overcast all of a sudden. Isn\u2019t there a word for that?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah, it\u2019s muggy. So the reason it went from being super hot and sunny to actually kind of chilly, and then overcast but hot and humid over the course of two days is because there\u2019s a tropical cyclone coming in from the north this week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Oh, I just remembered that Colin texted me last night to say that he couldn\u2019t sleep because it was so muggy up north where he\u2019s working this week. I haven\u2019t heard that word used a lot before. But I guess it\u2019s typical cyclone weather! Anyways, he also said that he\u2019s annoyed he has to be at work when the surf is so good down south right now. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah, exactly — so what\u2019s happening is that this cyclone is coming in from the ocean and heading down the coast this weekend, and that creates these specials winds, which I guess make the surf really huge. Everyone\u2019s heading down south to surf right now. And apparently these weather conditions only happen once every ten years or something.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Okay, I see. So there are some super special waves coming in right now, but they\u2019re probably too big for beginners like us. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: To be honest I don\u2019t think I would be able to get all the surfing gear together by this weekend anyways, so the cyclone doesn\u2019t really make a difference. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: True. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: But it is nice to have some overcast days for once. Not that I don\u2019t love the sunshine and the balmy beach weather, but it becomes kind of old after a few months. Plus I feel like I\u2019ve been getting sunburned every time I go outside. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: For sure. Well maybe we can try and find some surfboards next week? I\u2019ll be done with summer school after Thursday. <\/p>\n<h3>Midroll<\/h3>\n<p>Before we find out the rest of Maya and Gabrielle\u2019s surfing plans, 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 smart and fun remote tutors ready to answer your questions<br \/>\nAre you ready to improve your score and get into your dream program?

I think my aunt might have some extra ones at her house actually. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Oh that would be fantastic. I have no idea how much a surfboard costs, but I assume they\u2019re not cheap. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, I definitely saw at least one board the last time I was over at her place. And even if she only has one, we could probably borrow that one and then just split the cost of the second board.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Great, that works for me! Okay so, do you think that we will need wetsuits? The water here is pretty warm, but I assume it gets chilly when you\u2019re out in the water for a few hours at a time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve seen anyone in wetsuits. You probably stay warm from the physical activity…remember how it was in San Diego? The water wasn\u2019t all that warm, but you\u2019re moving constantly so it\u2019s not a problem. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: You\u2019re right…I probably will have to buy a one-piece swimsuit though. My bikini is fine for swimming, but it\u2019s probably not the best for getting knocked around in the waves. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, okay, let\u2019s go look for swimsuits this weekend. Wow my hair is so frizzy today, this humidity is really too much for me. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: I kind of like that it\u2019s muggy, it reminds me of when I was in Bali. But also I don\u2019t have to deal with the frizz because my hair is in braids, so I guess it\u2019s not as much of a problem for me. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: What would you say is your favorite kind of weather?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Hmm, I think it really depends. I just like variety. Obviously a mild balmy climate is the best, but like I said before, even that gets old after a while. And actually, I don\u2019t mind \u201cbad\u201d weather. It feels so nice and cozy to stay inside when there\u2019s really nasty rain or sleet. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Ugh but sleet is the worst! You don\u2019t drive, so you don\u2019t know what it\u2019s like to have to deal with the roads being icy. It\u2019s terrible. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah, I guess you\u2019re right. But you don\u2019t even have a car right now! Anyways I don\u2019t think the weather will even get that bad here in the winter, we\u2019re too far south. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Yeah, that\u2019s why I moved here! <\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: That was a very good call. Okay so this weekend we\u2019ll get swimsuits, and you ask your aunt about the surfboards. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Sounds perfect. So do you think we should…I don\u2019t know…take lessons?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah, I think if I just tried to go out into the water without any instruction I wouldn\u2019t actually be able to surf at all. I just don\u2019t remember how to do it. And plus if we learn with bad form it\u2019ll make things more difficult later. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Okay, yeah, you\u2019re right. How much do you think lessons cost?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: No idea. How about I\u2019ll look into that, and you try to get us the boards. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Sweet, sounds like a plan. I\u2019m so excited that we\u2019re finally going to learn how to surf. I think this could be really great!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maya<\/strong>: Yeah, I\u2019ve always wanted to surf, I just never made the commitment before. But I think we\u2019re finally ready. Plus we can support each other through the difficult beginning part. It\u2019s always nice to have a friend to learn new skills with. I\u2019m so glad you want to do this with me!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gabrielle<\/strong>: Absolutely, I couldn\u2019t agree more. <\/p>\n<h3>Outro<\/h3>\n<p>So how did you do?
