How to learn English? (30/30 Challenge)

[Dark magician]

Hi Torsten
I'll take your instructions in this a report:

The Art sport English Channel showed a report about British designer for Italy team soccer. Before the final match:

British fashion designer Neil Barrett will pay attention to what the Italian football team is wearing this evening when they play in the World Cup final and he designed their uniforms.

He told "Of course the Italians would have to be first"

And when I am seeing my design in the Berlin stadium in the final my dream will be true.

And I was grateful that my native England had not faced Italy.
Because I don't know any team I support it.

This report I watched it before 3 hours from match start.

By the way, congratulation to Italy and hard luck to France.

Note: I record the report on my Video and I replay it.

Thank for the corection.

Today I listend BBC-News for 15 minutes. Subject was the crime trial about the case Milutinovic. Milan Milutinovic is the ex-President from Serbian. Him and other Serbian officials are charged to be involve in the Kosovo-Conflict in 1999. They deny the reproach and say that they not murded and persecuted Albanians.

The case comes four months after the dead from the ex-Yugoslav President Milosevic.

Many peoples complain oft the length of the proceeding. The indictement alleges that the accused try to contiune Serb control over the province. The prosecution says it takes at last a year for the evidence and the defence takes at least as long.

This was my listening report.

Hello Torsten,
today I startet to whatch CNN for 10 minutes. It was Newstime at 5 pm.
The first report was about the conflict in the Middle East. Michael Holmes, the speaker, introduced some correspondents. They reportet from Beirut. There, many rockets hit houses, damaged bridges and the airport. Actually 63 persons are killed and 116 injured. The hospital is damaged, too. Windows has been splittet and injured emploees. In Beirut, july is season for many tourists. But there is nobody on the street. Shops and banks are closed and there is no traffic. Beside of destruction and killing, the terror also hurts tourist industry, which is very important for the country.

Hope you understand my short report and that it does not content to many faults.

Regards
