Material Matching: Listen to the audio and connect the people with their way to work.

  • Josef
  • Jennifer
  • Iggy
  • Mohammed
  • Mariah
  • Rides the bike to work
  • Takes the bus to work
  • Takes the subway to work
  • Takes the car to work
  • Takes the ferry to work

Exercise B

Fill in the Gap: Listen to the audio and fill in the missing words. Remember that misspelling names will not detract points as long as the name is recognizable.

Exercise C

True or False: Listen to the following audio. You will hear (fictional) announcements from the New York subway, which have been closely edited together. These announcements follow similar structures so you may want to identify them first and then focus on the unique pieces of information while listening for a second time. Note which of the following statements are true or false. If they are false, correct the statement.
