The listening passage, a broadcast from United Nations radio, tells of a related theme, recent proposals for Security Council reform. In addition, the unit provides links to authentic reading passages on the un.org and other web sites.

Learners have the opportunity to review and summarize the information contained in this unit in the "Writing task".
