What is hearing?

Answer

Hearing is an involuntary process. All sounds, noises, music, and speech that enter the ears are part of hearing.

Card 2Core Concepts

What is listening?

Answer

Listening is a voluntary and active process. It means trying to understand each sound and noise with attention and purpose.

Card 3Core Concepts

Why is listening called an active process?

Answer

Listening is active because the mind works on the sounds being heard. The listener pays attention, selects important details, and tries to understand the meaning.

Card 4Importance of Listening

Why should listening be practised carefully?

Answer

Listening should be practised carefully to comprehend and respond appropriately, become a better communicator, resolve conflicts, improve relationships, empathise, reflect, and follow instructions.

Card 5Listening Habits

What is the first rule for good listening?

Answer

Remove distractions and focus only on what is being said. Full concentration helps in catching important information clearly.

Card 6Listening Habits

Why is it helpful to look at the speaker?

Answer

Looking at the speaker helps catch information that may be missed by hearing alone. Facial expressions and movements also support understanding.

What kind of notes should be taken during listening?

Answer

Brief notes of important details and keywords should be taken. The aim is to capture useful points, not write the entire passage.
