Listening Recall — Explain What You Understood
Type or speak a short summary. This section checks whether you can reconstruct the situation in your own words.
Do not copy the transcript. Reconstruct Lucas’s first-day briefing as if you needed to start the orchard shift safely without asking Ben to repeat everything.
Your task: In at least 50 words, summarize when and how Lucas clocks in, where and how he should pick, what happens to damaged fruit and full bins, and the main heat, break and safety instructions.
