Objective & content
This Great Stuff Short answers one question: "What's Big Ben?" One speaker believes it is the clock tower in London, and the other explains that Big Ben is the bell inside the Elizabeth Tower, which first rang in 1859. The episode also gives the height of the tower (about 96 metres) and the number of steps (399). The language focus is present simple and "be" sentences used to state facts, with large numbers and sightseeing vocabulary. The skill is listening comprehension, with cultural awareness of a London landmark.
