Listening

Listen to the description of the park.

Let me tell you about my local park. There's a big tree in the middle of the park, and a wooden bench is under the tree. Next to the bench, there's a small rubbish bin. Between the pond and the playground, there's a narrow path. Behind the pond, there's a row of tall trees. In front of the gate, there's a flower bed with colourful flowers. On the grass, in front of the playground, children like to play football. My dog loves to run under the wooden bridge, next to the pond.
