IELTS Listening Part 3: A Field Trip on Coastal Erosion

Part Three. You will hear two geography students discussing their field trip with their tutor.

Bagian tiga. Anda akan mendengar dua mahasiswa geografi membahas kunjungan lapangan mereka dengan dosen pembimbing.

First, you have some time to look at questions twenty-one to twenty-five.

Pertama, Anda punya sedikit waktu untuk membaca soal nomor dua puluh satu sampai dua puluh lima.

Now listen carefully and answer questions twenty-one to twenty-five.

Sekarang dengarkan baik-baik dan jawab soal nomor dua puluh satu sampai dua puluh lima.

So, how was the trip to Wenbury?

Jadi, bagaimana perjalanan ke Wenbury?

Amazing! Though it was freezing on the cliffs!

Luar biasa! Walaupun di tebing dinginnya minta ampun!

We measured how far the cliff edge has moved.

Kami mengukur seberapa jauh tepi tebing sudah bergeser.

It's losing about two metres every year.

Tebingnya terkikis sekitar dua meter setiap tahun.

Two metres? That's faster than I thought.

Dua meter? Lebih cepat dari dugaan saya.

And the locals say the storms are getting worse, too.

Warga setempat juga bilang badainya makin parah.

One café owner told us she'd lost half her garden.

Seorang pemilik kafe bilang dia sudah kehilangan separuh kebunnya.

She's lived there for forty years. It was really upsetting.

Dia sudah tinggal di sana empat puluh tahun. Sedih sekali mendengarnya.

Stories like that will make your report much stronger.

Cerita seperti itu akan membuat laporan kalian jauh lebih kuat.

We recorded six interviews altogether.

Total kami merekam enam wawancara.

Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions twenty-six to thirty.

Sebelum mendengar sisa percakapan, Anda punya sedikit waktu untuk membaca soal nomor dua puluh enam sampai tiga puluh.

Now listen and answer questions twenty-six to thirty.

Sekarang dengarkan dan jawab soal nomor dua puluh enam sampai tiga puluh.

Now, what did you conclude about protecting the coast?

Nah, apa kesimpulan kalian tentang perlindungan pantai?

I think the council should build more sea walls.

Menurut saya, pemerintah daerah harus membangun lebih banyak tembok laut.

Hmm, I'm not so sure about that.

Hmm, aku tidak begitu yakin.

Sea walls protect one village, but the erosion just moves further along the coast.

Tembok laut melindungi satu desa, tapi erosinya cuma pindah lebih jauh di sepanjang pantai.

But you can't just let people's homes fall into the sea!

Tapi kita tidak bisa membiarkan rumah orang jatuh ke laut begitu saja!

You both make good points. That's exactly the debate.

Kalian berdua punya poin yang bagus. Itulah inti perdebatannya.

In your report, present both options fairly,

Dalam laporan, sajikan kedua pilihan secara adil,

and include the cost of each one.

dan cantumkan biaya masing-masing.

Should we use the old photos from the town archive?

Apakah kami sebaiknya memakai foto-foto lama dari arsip kota?

Absolutely! Comparing them with today's coastline will be really powerful.

Tentu saja! Membandingkannya dengan garis pantai sekarang akan sangat mengena.

And the word limit is three thousand, isn't it?

Batas katanya tiga ribu, kan?

That's right. And it's due on the twentieth of May.

Betul. Dan tenggatnya tanggal 20 Mei.

Better start writing, then, Ben!

Kalau begitu, mending mulai nulis sekarang, Ben!

Ha! Fair enough.

Haha! Iya juga.

That is the end of Part Three.

Sekian Bagian Tiga.
