Grammar
Preposition
I have a grammatical question that I can't understand the structure of the sentence exactly:
" You need to integrate both the key ideas and the important examples or details from the material you read or listen to "
My problem is that how we can use a preposition like "to" at the end of a sentence. Is it related to any subject in grammatical book?
Thanks

A very formal, and rather clunky, way of expressing this would be '...from the material which you read or to which you listen'.

Your example is right, i cannot deny it.
I also said : listen to is active and hear is passive
But you have misunderstood what i said. I said that listen to doesn't has all the same meaning as hear, but in some way, it does. We are talking about the meaning not using.
