Idioms are a crucial aspect of the IELTS speaking test as they can help you demonstrate a higher level of English proficiency. Using idioms shows that you have a good grasp of the language and can express yourself in a more natural and nuanced way. In part 3 of the speaking test, where you engage in a discussion with the examiner, incorporating idioms can make your responses more engaging and memorable.

For example, instead of saying "I think it's important to consider both sides of the argument," you could use the idiom "to see both sides of the coin." This not only adds variety to your language but also showcases your ability to use idiomatic expressions appropriately.

Another example could be using the idiom "to kill two birds with one stone" when discussing the benefits of multitasking in the workplace. This not only demonstrates your fluency in English but also adds a touch of creativity to your responses.

Overall, incorporating idioms in your IELTS speaking test can help you stand out and impress the examiners. So, don't be afraid to sprinkle some idiomatic expressions throughout your responses!

Once again, the Mediterranean diet has been named the world's best by US News & World Report.

The diet, which is eaten across the world but is based on foods and recipes from countries around the Mediterranean Sea, has now been at the top of the list for six years.

Its focus on fruit, vegetables, olive oil and fish has helped the Mediterranean diet to the top, according to US News.

A team of experts looked at 24 different diets, putting them in order from best to worst.

There were also a number of different category winners.

The Mediterranean diet was chosen as the best plant-based diet, and, along with the flexitarian diet, it tied as the best for families. It also tied with the DASH diet as the best for healthy bones.

The flexitarian diet encourages people to eat a vegetarian diet most of the time, but still allows some meat.

The DASH diet is meant to help people with high blood pressure. It focuses on fruit, vegetables and whole grains, as well as low-fat products.

The flexitarian and DASH diets also tied for second place on the overall list.

The Mediterranean diet is not exactly the same across all Mediterranean countries, but these countries do share the same basic eating principles.

This low-fat way of eating — which also includes beans and grains, and not much red meat or butter — has been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease and other health problems.

Speaking to CNN, Gretel Schueller from US News said we can all use these ideas to eat a Mediterranean diet wherever we are in the world.

はい、こんにちは。今回は、ポッドキャストの14回目です。私は一昨日の夜、久しぶりにカレーを作りました。前回にもお話ししたように、私は普段、カレーを食べる時は近所のインド料理レストランでテイクアウトをしています。最近、コロナウイルスの影響で、このレストランが午後の4時までしか開いていないので、夕飯が買えません。なので一昨日は自分で作ることにしました。

Hello. This is the podcast episode 14. I made curry the night before last, for the first time in a long time. As I told you last time, when I eat curry, I usually get takeout from an Indian restaurant in my neighborhood. Lately, due to the coronavirus, this restaurant is only open until four in the afternoon, so I can't buy dinner. So the day before yesterday I decided to make it myself.

材料は、人参と、玉ねぎと、じゃがいもと、牛肉と、カレールーで、カレールーというのはスパイスや、スープの素を固めたものです。野菜を炒めて、煮て、水を入れて、カレールーを入れると、カレーが完成します。ものすごく久しぶりに、自分でカレーを作りました。作り方は間違っていなかったはずなんですけど、このカレーはすごくまずかったです。

The ingredients are carrots, onions, potatoes, beef, and curry roux, which is a hardened mixture of spices and soup stock. Stir-fry the vegetables, boil, add water, and add the curry roux, and the curry is ready. It has been a very long time since I made curry by myself. I'm sure I made it right, but this curry was really bad.

私は子供の時、カレールーで作るカレーをすごく美味しいと思っていました。でも最近は、レストランのカレーばかり食べています。やっぱりレストランのカレーと比べると、カレールーで作るカレーは味が薄くて美味しくないですね。そして調べてみたら、スパイスから作るカレーは、そんなに材料が高くないし、作り方も簡単なことを発見しました。だから今度挑戦してみたいと思います。

When I was a child, I used to think that curry made with curry roux was very tasty. But recently, I have been eating only restaurant curry. Compared to restaurant curry, curry made with curry roux has a thinner taste and is not as tasty. Then I did some research and found out that curry made from spices is not that expensive and easy to make. So I'd like to try it next time.
