Listening for Understanding Worksheet
Ask a partner or adult to read the listening passage aloud while you look away or cover it. Listen for key details, the order of events and how the hikers feel. Then answer the questions. You may hear the passage read twice.
A group of friends were hiking with their group on a mountain track. Before they set off, their guide said, “Stay on the track, walk together and stop if you hear the whistle.” The morning was cool, so Mei zipped up her jacket. Soon, the hikers reached a stream. Finn watched the current swirl around the stones and cautioned the others. He told them to wait while the guide checked a safe crossing. After they crossed, Levi heard a whistle. Everyone stopped and listened. The guide had spotted a small bird near the track and wanted the group to watch quietly. Mei felt excited but remembered to use a quiet voice. At the end of the hike, the friends were tired and pleased. They had stayed together and helped one another make safe choices.
