Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

Last Chance Skijoring Race for Gold in Helena, Montana
Skijoring is a combination of Montana’s favorite things: snow, skis and horses. There is a long course where the horse and rider run straight down the middle while pulling a skier behind with a rope. The skier maneuvers through obstacles. The object of the game is to go as fast as you can through the course. It is a thrill to watch. Many of the horses and riders are dressed in their finest cowboy frills. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly.
