Hearing comprehension 4

We propose you a hearing comprehension exercise. We're going to give you a paragraph every week (Mondays, except this week because of Christmas holidays) to practice with it. Try to understand every single word. We advise you to write it, as if it were a dictation. You can send us your writtings here below clicking in 'comments'. We'll give you the right answer the following week. Try it!



Here is the transcription to the last week listening:

If you don't mind, I'm going to take off. I have to attend a charity concert organized by the association where my wife works. I hope I don't fall asleep in the middle of the third movement. Oh, I almost forgot. I left the final draft of the concract for the stand in the book fair on your desk. Look it over and if everything's okay, sign it and forward it to Simpson in the Legal Department.
