>>I suggest that you watch TED talk TV (https://www.ted.com/talks) Speakers deliver short but powerful talks and they cover almost all topics. One thing great is that, each video has subtitles,the transcript, and details of their speech. You can listen to it over and over again while reading the transcript. You can also watch a scene from a movie or TV show with subtitles, and a You Tube video with transcripts. I\'m sure these would really help you improve your listening skill. ^ ^
