IELTS Listening: Tardigrades

IELTS Listening: Tardigrades

This IELTS Listening Part 4 is about research into microscopic animals called tardigrades or ‘water bears’.

The speaker explains their extreme survival abilities - a topic that we covered in the previous Reading Podcast ('The secret of staying young').

This is an essential topic in IELTS, so don't miss this chance to review the vocabulary related to ageing and longevity.

You'll also pick up lots of tips related to gapfill questions.
