    It appears that you translated the reading materials on-the-fly, into English, your native language; when in fact the purpose of this exercise is intended for you to read it, as written. Please try again, in French this time.

    Much better this time. Sounds like French to me now. :) Actually many commenters also simply critique on the (supplied) written text and neglected to play the student's sound clip. You sounded like you have learnt French a while back and just now returning to it, and have forgotten a few pronunciation rules. Practice the French sounds of: U, P, I, R. ► tu (remember the French U) ► pas (non-aspirated P sound) ► une femme ► un homme ► riche ► pauvre ► petit ► grand I made an audio for you. I'm just a beginner. So I tried my best.
