OpenAI Shuts Down the Sora Video App — Disney Pushback and a Refocus
HSK 2 Chinese listening practice. OpenAI decides to close its Sora video-making app after Disney pushback — what happened and what comes next.
This is an HSK 2 Chinese listening episode that runs about 3 minutes. The full Mandarin script is shown with tap-for-pinyin and a line-by-line English translation, so you can listen and read at once — comprehensible input in the sense of Stephen Krashen's i+1 theory. It teaches 14 key vocabulary words such as 科技、决定、工具 and walks through 5 grammar patterns, each explained in English with examples. The same news story is retold at 4 difficulty levels — use the level selector above to find the version that is challenging but still understandable for you.
