ABSTRACT

Listening comprehension is a complex process of understanding language. It is a complex psychological process that emphasizes the listener (language recipient) understands the language through auditory and it is also the interaction process between language and mental activity. British linguist Mary. Underwood divided complete listening process into three stages: the first stage is the stage in which the sounds go into a sensory store which is called input; the processing of the information from the short-term memory is the second stage, whose short term is processing; the third stage is transferring the information to the long term memory for later use) which is the output or response.
