Listening- Places to visit

Happy New Year!!! I hope you had a lovely Christmas, and that you had time to relax and disconnect so you now bring renewed energy to face the second part of the course.

As the saying goes... better late than never! So here is the listening I told you about on places to visit. 
I also asked you to write three similar descriptions, one of a natural park, another one of a place where you can enjoy art or culture, and finally, an amusement or theme park. 

This is the audio track:



And here is the exercise:

You are going to listen to some short extracts about places to visit with children. Match extracts 1 to 5 with sentences A to H. There are two sentences you don't need to use. Extract 0 is the example (letter C).

A It was built in the 17th century, and you can learn about the stars.
B You don't have to pay for special exhibitions. 
C It's near the sea and there are many different types of activities.
D You have to pay for a trip on the sea.
E You can see paintings of people and there is a good view from the top of the building.
F It's ok if the weather is good, and you can do a lot of water sports.
G You can learn about a type of transport, and it's more interesting than the speaker expected.
H There aren't many places to eat or drink.
