Does any one have any practice listening tasks relating to journeys that I could use to prepare for one? I would be greatly appreciated.

listening tasks? so u mean things like the teacher reads out a poem or story, and then its something like a Paper 1 Section 1? i never had one for my HSC English course...and that was a year ago.

or do u mean an oral presentation?

No, I mean a listening task. In my case it involves a tape been played twice, we take notes on techniques and write them down on a sheet which gets marked.

mmmmmm u could try this:

get some written texts (poems, short stories, extracts, articles, etc...) that relate to journeys and get a mate to read it out to you while u jot down notes. ur mate takes the place of the tape recorder/player.

good examples to do:
-stimulus booklet texts --> wind in the willows, journey to the interior, text 7, the road not taken.
-interviews --> particularly those who has had a signficant change in their life
-short stories --> ones that involve physical journeys are good to do.
etc...be creative and found something interesting to test ur technique finding skills! LOL

your mate can write up REALISTIC questions 4 u to do. do the same to him/her, so its a nice study group exercise.
