listening report week 6
video
1.Main idea: A plane crashed near Rawalpindi, Paskistan.
2.Tone: informative because they let us know that information.
3.Organization: There is no controversy in the report; something is described about.
4.Summary: The plane was flying and it was almost near the airport when it went down. The news people were going through debris which included plane parts and body parts. So far 131 deaths have been counted, but the crash was near a residential area so there could be more deaths, but they don't know for sure yet.
5.My opinion: I choose this video because this is the second crash with a plane in the last month.
