broadcast internationally Among the best known are the BBC
World Service, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, and the
Voice of America
These stations provide good listening practice You might find it
particularly useful to listen to
• news broadcasts
Listen to a specific item and try to identify the names of the

people involved, what happened, the time, the place, and any
other significant details
• sports programs
Listen for the names of places, contestants and teams, the scores
and who scored
• the weather report
Note: If you want to check that you have understood correctly you
can always check for the same information in the newspaper
It may also be useful to listen to talk shows, interviews and news
magazines in order to practise the skills necessary for listening to a
dialogue
The same sort of exercises can be carried out watching television
Programs such as the BBC world channel, the ABC or CNN are
useful for this if you are not in a country with English language
television broadcasts
