B4S4 - Listening 1

Luisa: Hi, Bruno! Did you attend the History class today?

Bruno: Yes, it was very interesting. Why weren’t you there?

Luisa: Because I had an appointment with the dentist at 10:30 a.m. What was the class about?

Bruno: It was about World War II. The teacher explained to us what happened at Pearl Harbor.

Luisa: That happened before the United States entered the Second World War, right?

Bruno: Exactly! The Japanese Navy attacked the Naval Base on December 7th, 1941.

Luisa: I read that it was on a very early Sunday morning, and more than 2,400 American servicemen and women died.

Bruno: Yes, and in those years, communication used to take a lot more time.

Luisa: That was terrible. I will investigate more about it. Where is Pearl Harbor located?

Bruno: It’s in Honolulu, Hawaii. You should research it because there is an assignment to be done.

Luisa: Oh! What is it about?

Bruno: We have to write an essay. It’s for the next class.

Luisa: Then, I must start tonight. Thank you, Bruno!

Bruno: No problem. Remember, the class starts at 10:00 o’clock. See you tomorrow!
