You are going to watch a video of a news report. Read the introduction and answer the questions.

May 14 – Triumph’s latest solar bar aims to put a photovoltaic charge into undergarment demand – or at least a cellphone.

Featuring a built-in solar panel, the bra captures and redistributes the sun’s bounty and can generate enough energy to power a cell phone or an iPod

Before you listen:

  1. Who is the target audience?
  2. What kind of news do you think the audience will be interested in?
  3. What do you think the tone of the report will be?

Now listen and answer the comprehension questions:

  1. What product is being promoted?
  2. In which country is Triumph based?
  3. What other products have the company produced?
  4. How does the model feel about wearing the product?
  5. Why is washing it a problem?

Compare your answers with each other. Can you think of any good ideas for an invention?
