Hi Sofia, well-done!!! you have been the first.
the listening is ok, there are just some basic mistakes.
Check number 3. They boy wants to join a gang "not to tear (torn) a bike.
Number 10 the little boy wants to get rid of this belly. He says his "pot belly" which means that he is a bit fatty. he´s hot a round belly...
The other sentences are ok, just some mistakes in the use or articles such as "the 10%". You have to use it without the article.
In number 18 it is to quit smoking.
In general very good.
You´ve got a positive mark.

Hi Pablo. It´s your turn now.
Very good!!!! not many mistakes.
You have the same mistake as Sofia in number 3. The boy wants to join a gang. The missing word was "join".
In number 19 it is not "quite" but QUIET.
you´ve got a positive mark as well!!

Hi Maicon!!! Well-done. I see you have understood most of it!! Congratulations.
In number 3 the missing work is join and in number 19 you have the same mistake as Pablo. It is not "quite" but QUIET.
very good and you have a positive mark as well.

hiye, Sara and Alex!.
i see you have more or less the same mistakes. Some problems in number 3 that is "join" and not "torn" and the last one, number 19 instead of quite it is QUIET.
APART from that, there are other minor mistakes, you can check in your classmates´s corrections ok? Any doubt aske me about it, all right?
See you tomorrow.
