Good job Martha.
Your text is easy to read and the use of grammar is correct in general.
There are some aspects to concentrate on: spelling (ex: becouse, cost, caracteristic), word form (for they, with she, irresponsibles) subject verb agreement (she tolerate, San Pedro talk, she wander, etc), vocabulary (ex: all parties, a history) and sentence structure (ex: for that never can rest).
How about your recording?
Keep working!

Your recording is good but you still need to check the pronunciation of new words because you sometimes pronounce something different from what is written.
I recommend your this link: www.thefreedictionary.com
Keep going!
