book 7: tester-round content fixes
- Bob and Dave / Martha and Sally listening stories become their own dialogue activities; the What-Didn't-You-Hear questions REFERENCE them (the whole passage no longer sits inside the question prompt) - Brutus the Cat: the full story is a dialogue activity, and the follow-up questions REFERENCE it (testers had to answer from memory) - vocab tags moved to the first line that actually teaches the word (gate, dog/cat/bird, run/climb inflections, sky) - long read-only paragraph lines split into sentence-sized cards (airports, circle definitions, winter yard) - self-study wording: removed classroom "this week" phrasing Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
