When someone says, “Listen up!” they mean you should listen carefully or pay attention. Computers can help you develop good listening skills in English. This week, let's look at several websites where you can practice your listening skills.
Randall’s ESL
Cyber Listening Lab offers listening practice quizzes at 3 levels: easy, medium, and difficult. If you click on the first easy one, Answering Machine, a new page will appear that has important vocabulary and questions to answer as you listen.
To listen, click either the
Listen with Real Player button or the Listen with Windows Media Player
button. Of course, you must have either Real Player or Windows Media
Player installed on your computer. They’re free, so you can download
them if you don’t already have one.
While you are listening, you
should answer the quiz questions and then click the Final Score button
to find out how well you could understand. If you want, you can listen
again and again until you get a perfect score!
There are so many listening
activities at Randall’s ESL Cyber Listening Lab. It will give you
listening opportunities for many days. So, everybody, “Listen up!”
