Theory and practice of the passive.

Hello, everyone.

Hello, everyone.
Here's a link to help you improve your listening while following the news and current events. The presenters are speaking for an international audience, so it's easier to follow than the BBC, while also including a reasonably complete transcript.

Please try it out, and leave a comment on the blog.
