  1. Listening blog of Sara Delfrate.

    I watched a documentary this afternoon about the Grand Canyon because I was travelling to this National Park. I listened this dvd twice for about 20 minutes.

    This documentary speaks about the geology and geoghaphy of the Gran Canyon, especially it describes this wonderful place like a huge fissure in the Colorado Plateau.The Grand Canyon is famous for its colorful landscape and, for thousands of years, it has been continuously inhabited by Native Americans who built settlements within the canyon and its many caves.

    I think I understand about 60% because the speaker has told this description very fast.

    When I listened this documentary, I have tried to find the main idea, but also many details, which were interesting.
