I started listening to the stories in English about different people’s lives in order to improve my English listening.

At first, I downloaded (下载) in my iPad very short stories. They were about one or two minutes long. But I quickly became bored of the same old topics and speakers. Then someone told me that there were free audio (音频) books. I was surprised because I knew that it was still difficult for me to listen to long passages. However, at that moment I suddenly realized that not so long ago I had read several wonderful stories by Somerset Maugham in Russian. And it would be a great idea to try listening to them in English, So, as I knew the ideas of those stories, it would be easier for me to understand these stories 69. ______ listening. I have been listening to Maugham’s works for one week every day while walking to college. I like these clever stories. In my opinion. it is a very useful way to improve my listening. Also, I started listening to the texts not only after reading them in advance (提前). but also I try to listen to new books. And it is very difficult for me to do so. There are many websites on the Internet with lots of different books of many types. You can use these sites to download books for free according to your choice.

The more you listen. the more easily you will learn English. The only way to study something is to do it. So if you want to develop listening, you have to listen to the things in English as much as possible.
