Explanation:

The passé composé is a compound past tense in French. The past participle form (écouté) is used in this tense. "Listened" is the past - participle form of "listen" in English. Option A ("is going to listen") is a future - continuous - like structure in English (not a past form). Option C ("listening") is the present - participle form. Option D ("will listen") is the simple future form.

Answer:

B. listened
