THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA



Hi again María I hope you feel better
Here is the listening that it’s very hard more than four hours to understand what you can read but many words are impossible to understand them




Miranda Presley is the Editor in Chief of Runway.
So you don’t read Runway.
No
No to mention a legend.
And before today you’ve never heard about me?
No
If you work for one year for her you can get a job in anywhere and seeing anyone
You have no style or sense of fashion
But I
No, no it wasn’t a question
You get a job a fashion magazine, it would phone interview?
It’s that sad that impresses
We doing before nature speech and we go home
I’ll start to take out one year.
And then I could come to New York to do to be a journalist but I can’t ( ) to get to me.
I need from ten to fifty skirts.
What kind of skirts?
Please bore someone else with your questions.
Never ask Miranda anything
Miranda errands
Hello

( ) boards
A million of girls will kill to do this job
I thought take a chance hire this mark fat girl
She hates me nice job
Is any way do you can help me
No
Please I’m desperate
I know it’s tragic
Do I wear ( )
Will ( ) stone and fishing line wearing ( )
I’m stunner same person better clothes
No like feel clothes
Angie you look so sick you look so thin

Just one stomach clothe ( ) my go away
Happy birthday dear so sorry
It’s my first time in my life hand by a thread
Natural happens disasters in over world
( ) my whole life is going up in smoke
Ms is time for promotion
Do you know I hired you?
She great with you she self in you
People think success happens to do it doesn’t
Want this life
This is injurious

Good try, Charo!

Here's the correction:

Miranda Presley is the Editor in Chief of Runway.

No
Not to mention a legend.
And before today, you had never heard of me?
No
If you work for one year for her you can get a job in anywhere and seeing anyone
You have no style or sense of fashion
But I
No, no it wasn’t a question
Wait. You got a job at a fashion magazine?
-Mm-hmm. -What was it, a phone interview?
Who is that sad little person?
Are we doing a before-and-after piece I don't know about?
I just have to stick it out for one year.
And then I can do what I came to New York to do.
Be a journalist. But I can't let Miranda get to me.
I need 10 or 15 skirts from Calvin Klein.
-What kind of skirts? -Please bore someone else with your questions.
you run errands
Hello
Where are my eggs?
Lingerie
boogie boards
A million girls would kill for this job.
I thought take a chance.
Hire the smart, fat girl.
She hates me, Nigel.
There is a way that you can help me
No
Please I’m desperate
I know, it’s tragic
-Will that fit me? -Oh, yeah.
A little Crisco and some fishing line, and we're in business.
I’m still the same person better clothes
And I liked the old clothes
Angie you look so chic you look so thin
Do I?
I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight.
Happy birthday.
I'm so sorry.
My personal life is hanging by a thread, that's all.
That's what happens when you start doing well at work.
Let me know when your whole life goes up in smoke.
That means it's time for a promotion.
Do you know why I hired you?
I see a great deal of myself in you.
People think success just happens to you. It doesn’t
Do you want this life?
The decision in yours.
I need it go home tonight
No one is flying out because of the weather
Please it’s just, I don’t know, drizzling
