Is the follow-up exercise helpful for IELTS listening? ?

First, follow-up training can standardize pronunciation. By distinguishing and imitating the correct pronunciation intonation, we can master some basic English pronunciation rules and phonetic features, such as aphonia, continuous reading, missing sound, stress reading and weak reading, which are the key test points of IELTS listening test.

Second, IELTS listening mainly examines the details, and the answer must be in the original text. Follow-up training can cultivate instantaneous or short-term memory ability and improve the ability to grasp the core information of corresponding sentences.

Thirdly, follow-up exercises can cultivate listening accuracy and reaction speed, improve listening recognition ability, store words with ears, and ensure that you can still master the core information of the corresponding sentence without understanding the meaning of the sentence. For example, if you fill in a word and write down what you hear, sometimes you can determine the spelling according to the pronunciation rules as long as you know the pronunciation of the word.

Fourth, the combination of reading and dictation, although hard and boring, will certainly improve listening and even oral expression.
