I studied Listening Section Level4 Unit07, the title was 'Lindbergh fly alone, nonstop, across the Atlantic to Paris'.
There was a name, Charles Lindbergh in this story, but I had never heard the name.
But through this story, I learned that he was a great person who accomplished to fly alone, non stop, to Paris from Long Island in New York in 1927.
I was surprised to know that he was flying 33 hours long.
According to this story, I guess he might be tough and patient man.
And the pronunciation of this speaker was a little difficult to hear for me, so I think that I need to hear this type of English again and again.
