a- If you do not understand something you can always
refer to a text and even an online dictionary.
b- If there’s something you do not understand,
try to imitate the sounds because that’s good
to improve your pronunciation.

a - 9 is the number of languages that the speaker has learnt.

a- Technology means revolution and this has been wonderfully
exploited by English Language Teachers

to be in his teens.

decades ago.
