How Do You Raise Your Listening Comprehension? You can raise your listening comprehension by listening! Here is a story that you can listen to for practice with idioms. First, read the vocabulary (the List of Idioms). Then as you hear the story, try to stop the player after each idiom that you hear. Think about how it fits into the story. If you cannot hear each of the idioms, that is very good; this page is good practice for you. Simply listen again and again until you can hear each idiom. You may read the story anytime you like, but it is best if you read it only after you have heard the story three or four times. Some people find it convenient to read the story as you listen. Even better is to read the story out loud while you listen. Please feel free to listen as many times as you like.
