WOW!
Tara,This week’s audio news report is so difficult and I couldn’t understand the subject without seeing the text.
I listened to the news many times and heard only these words:
discovered, new story, children, Dr.seuss, this fall, after he died, Australian, is duty, photograph, in addition, real force, finished, celebrate, real peace, mother, as a hobby.
In addition, I could fill in the blanks the words:
Australian, celebrates and pieces.Because of being the so difficult text, I cannot present my opinion about the subject now and then I should study it carefully again and again.
Thank you so much.
Best wishes and have a wonderful week in nice Canada,
