The exercises on this ESL university listening page will give you the option to practice listening to university vocabulary being spoken by a native English speaker. This will mean that when you meet an English speaker you will be better prepared to understand them.
For each of the tasks on this page there is a recorded passage that you need to listen to. After you have listened to it you will be able to answer the questions or do the required task. You can listen several times to each recording if you need to. There is also a recording of the university vocabulary being spoken by a native English speaker on the ESL university vocabulary page; you can listen to this to make sure you know how to say each of the words.
This ESL university listening page has the four following tasks for you to do:
For the first ESL university listening exercise you need to listen to the following recording and then decide which option (A-D) in each question has the words in the same order as in the recording. When you have finished you can use the get score button to see the correct answers.
