practice in listening and reading

Where can I find longer texts - both written and oral - for practicing my 'continuous' comprehension with cohesive text? Thanks!

Bonjour Lance,
Have you done all of the ones here on Progress with Lawless French?
First a caveat, I do not typically recommend other sites other than this one but I do understand your need as I assume you are seeking more advanced texts, oral and written, that the ones you have found here, so here are three, all from TV5Monde:

http://apprendre.tv5monde.com/
http://parlons-francais.tv5monde.com/webdocumentaires-pour-apprendre-le-francais/p-1-lg0-Accueil.htm

Each seems to go from A1 to B2, I guess that they feel that above B2, one can simply watch the TV program or listen to a radio transmission without the need of a transcript.

J'espère que ma réponse vous aidera.
Bonne chance dans vos études en français.

Many thanks, Ron, for your good answer.

I tried TV5Monde and they are really good - but hard for me!

I also got a very good response from kwiziq (Gareth) who said:

Yes, we have lots of reading and listening exercises in the blog. We'll be incorporating exercises in the library soon.

Thanks to you both.

Hi, can you show me where the exercises are for French comprehension? I have found some clips to listen to but can not find the exercises, ie the questions to answer.

Thanks. I've done quite a few of the tv5 ones and they're pretty good.
