Second Term Exam - Listening Practice

Please use the following videos to practice for the listening section of the term exam. During the exam you won't watch the video, you will just listen to the audio, but watching these videos and listening to the audios will be a good training for the test.

Important:

• Make sure to understand the general idea (this should be done during the first time you listen to the audio).
• Take notes: this will help you to select the most important information and to get some details.
• Practice listening to the videos several times. Compare and complete the information you understand each time.
• During the exam: read the questions first and then listen.
