English Audio Request

Note to recorder:

Hi there. The following text is from an ESL textbook, which was not written by native speakers of English, so I think there remain several phrases which sound not natural to you. If so, please feel free to alter them.

My students are in their 4th grade, so please help me make two separate recordings for the text – one at your normal/natural speed, and the other at your slow speed.

I think the recording with your normal speed will be useful to their listening practice because it will be challenging enough, and hopefully they will not be bored! Meanwhile, the recording with your slow one will help them differentiate different sounds, and thereby enable them to copy your pronunciation.

Thank you in advance!

Yesterday, I went to the swimming pool in the morning. Then, I went to the supermarket by bus. I bought a CD and a new toothbrush. I had lunch in the café. I ate spaghetti and drank soda. In the afternoon, I went to the cinema with my sister. I saw a good film.

As a native English speaker I would probably not ay "I saw a good film." I would probbaly say "I saw a good movie" or "I watched a good movie." :)
