Task 3. Listen to the news from VOA and judge whether the statements are true or false.
From VOA Learning English, this is the Health & Lifestyle report.
Children grow quickly, especially their feet. But many families cannot buy new shoes each
time a child needs them. As a result, about 300 million children around the world go barefoot.
Those children risk picking up diseases and parasites from the soil.
An American man may have a solution for those barefoot kids — a shoe that grows with the
child. VOA correspondent June Soh traveled to Idaho to interview Kenton Lee. We bring that
story to our Learning English audience. Kenton Lee is the creator of “The Shoe That Grows”. He
explains how the shoe works and how it is able to last so long. “It grows in three places: the front;
it can also grow on the side with Velcro; and on the back with our buckle. It can last up to five
years. The bottom is compressed rubber like tire rubber. The top is just high-quality leather.” The
shoe comes in two sizes: small that fits children aged 4 to 9 and large for children aged 9 to 14.
