みんなの日本語、第５課41ページ、かいわより。 リスニングとリーディングのれんしゅうです。私が言ったあと、リピートしてください。 2かいめは少しはやいです。 
It‘ｓ for your practice of listening and reading. Repeat after me without reading げんき１, even if you have the textbook. I speak a little faster the second time. 
这是为了你的听力和阅读练习。 即使你有课本，也不要读　げんき１、跟着我重复。 我第二次说得快一点。 

もしあなたが中級（ちゅうきゅう）でも、いいれんしゅうになると思います。 
It should still be good practice even if you are an intermediate-level student. 
即使您是 N4 或以上级别的学生也很有用。
