About this listen

Get lost in a whirlwind of lust, chance encounters, and tricky dilemmas while testing your reading and listening skills. After each short story, you can either read or listen to the comprehension questions. Each question is followed by the answer, allowing you to study on your own. The stories do not contain any explicit scenes. The audio and print versions of this ESL guide are available at major online retailers.

"The Park Bench": Lilly knows she wants more out of life than a dull marriage and a boring career, but she can't quite put her finger on what. When she meets an attractive man one afternoon during her lunch break, her life begins changing in unexpected ways.

"What's More Important to You": Sarah thought she had it all figured out. She was going to be a career woman and climb her way to the top with the new corporate job she nabbed. It took one unexpected encounter to through her whole life into question.
