Hello, everyone!
You see, to practise my listening today I chose an episode from Ted Video for Listening and an audio track from ESL-lab.
Searching site www.ted.com, I found there some show talks related to business. I decided to watch an episode under the title 'Amy Lockwood: Selling condoms in the Congo', because I thought it would be connected with some serious problems as AIDS. And I was almost right. The reporter was talking about HIP prevalence people in Congo and about marketing fails in selling condoms campaign.
In general, I found that site great, because all the videos were quite simple and understandable. The language is rather clear, so I could hear everything well.
As for the track from ESL-lab, I chose the track from Medium under the title 'Breakfast Resipes and a small surprise!'. It was a dialogue between father and daugter. They were arguing about the dish for breakfast. And the end of the story brings a really nice and unexpected suprise. Generally speaking, I understood the conversation very well and answered all the questions correctly.
So, as for me, I like listening to different kinds of extracts, because they allow me to practice English and to learn some interesting facts at the same time. That is some kind of great practice for me!
Thank you.
