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.

SUMMARY
=======
Madrid (, Spanish: [maˈðɾið]) is the capital of Spain and the largest municipality in both the Community of Madrid and Spain as a whole. The city has almost 3.2 million inhabitants and a metropolitan area population of approximately 6.5 million. It is the third-largest city in the European Union (EU), smaller than only London and Berlin, and its monocentric metropolitan area is the third-largest in the EU, smaller only than those of London and Paris. The municipality covers 604.3 km2 (233.3 sq mi).Madrid lies on the River Manzanares in the centre of both the country and the Community of Madrid (which comprises the city of Madrid, its conurbation and extended suburbs and villages); this community is bordered by the autonomous communities of Castile and León and Castile-La Mancha. As the capital city of Spain, seat of government, and residence of the Spanish monarch, Madrid is also the political, economic and cultural centre of the country. The current mayor is Manuela Carmena from the party Ahora Madrid.
The Madrid urban agglomeration has the third-largest GDP in the European Union and its influences in politics, education, entertainment, environment, media, fashion, science, culture, and the arts all contribute to its status as one of the world's major global cities. Madrid is home to two world-famous football clubs, Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid. Due to its economic output, high standard of living, and market size, Madrid is considered the major financial centre of Southern Europe and the Iberian Peninsula; it hosts the head offices of the vast majority of major Spanish companies, such as Telefónica, IAG or Repsol. Madrid is the 10th most liveable city in the world according to Monocle magazine, in its 2017 index.Madrid houses the headquarters of the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), belonging to the United Nations Organization (UN), the Ibero-American General Secretariat (SEGIB), the Organization of Ibero-American States (OEI), and the Public Interest Oversight Board (PIOB). It also hosts major international regulators and promoters of the Spanish language: the Standing Committee of the Association of Spanish Language Academies, headquarters of the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE), the Cervantes Institute and the Foundation of Urgent Spanish (Fundéu BBVA). Madrid organises fairs such as FITUR, ARCO, SIMO TCI and the Cibeles Madrid Fashion Week.While Madrid possesses modern infrastructure, it has preserved the look and feel of many of its historic neighbourhoods and streets. Its landmarks include the Royal Palace of Madrid; the Royal Theatre with its restored 1850 Opera House; the Buen Retiro Park, founded in 1631; the 19th-century National Library building (founded in 1712) containing some of Spain's historical archives; a large number of national museums, and the Golden Triangle of Art, located along the Paseo del Prado and comprising three art museums: Prado Museum, the Reina Sofía Museum, a museum of modern art, and the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, which completes the shortcomings of the other two museums. Cibeles Palace and Fountain have become one of the monument symbols of the city. Madrid is the most visited city of Spain.

Las calles completas hacen mejores ciudades | Iñaki Romero | TEDxMadrid
Para Iñaki Romero Larrea las ciudades del futuro se compondrán de calles más completas y eficientes para la mayoría de los ciudadanos y no sólo para facilitar el tránsito de más vehículos. El desafío de la contaminación atmosférica, la falta de espacios urbanos de estancia y disfrute para los vecinos y los nuevos medios de transporte exigen rediseñar la ciudad desde un urbanismo para todos y basado en la experimentación. Arquitecto-urbanista por la ETSAM, con amplia experiencia en análisis urbano y GIS. Ha trabajado con algunos de los más prestigiosos urbanistas nacionales como Ramón López de Lucio, José María Ezquiaga y Jornet-Llop-Pastor arquitectes. Hace cinco años funda junto a sus cuatro socios Paisaje Transversal, una oficina con la que han revolucionado el urbanismo español. En estos momentos forman una alianza empresarial junto a las empresas Hécate (movilidad sostenible) y Creando Redes (restauración ecológica). This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at

Gracias a la dedicación y entrega de quienes trabajan cuidando, protegiendo y volcándose con quienes tienen otras capacidades, y más lo necesitan. Gracias a nuestros amigos de APANAS, que año tras año elaboran las figuras e instalan el belén del Palacio de Fuensalida, sede de la Presidencia del Gobierno regional.
¿POR QUÉ ES ESPECIAL DaLaNota? Teatro Nuevo Apolo - Camerata Musicalis
El programa Musicosocial DaLaNota de lavapiés actuó el pasado 9 de junio de 2018 junto a la Orquesta Camerata Musicalis
¿POR QUÉ ES ESPECIAL DALANOTA? , un espectáculo benéfico dirigido por Yolanda Rino y co-producido por DaLaNota y la Orquesta Camerata Musicalis, en el que hacimos un viaje por el espacio y el tiempo.
Tratamos temas actuales e importantes como: la situación del barrio actual de Lavapiés, la ecología y la igualdad, de la mano de la Orquesta del Programa Musicosocial DaLanota y la Orquesta Camerata Musicalis. Contamos, además, con maravillosas colaboraciones artísticas, como la de la marchosísima Swing Machine Orchestra y Bululú teatro.
DaLaNota es un programa de educación musicosocial gratuito e inclusivo dirigido a la infancia y la adolescencia, que tiene como misión formar personas preparadas para participar en sociedad de manera activa que construyan una comunidad equilibrada e inclusiva, a través de la música, como elemento clave de intervención y transformación social y cultural.
¿Por qué es especial? es un novedoso espectáculo de la orquesta sinfónica Camerata Musicalis que tiene por objetivo acercar la música clásica a nuevos públicos mediante un transgresor formato cargado de sentido del humor. De una forma amena y didáctica, ‘¿Por qué es especial?’ hace accesible la música clásica a aquellos que siempre han tenido demasiado respeto por este género, mediante una experiencia que combina diversión, conocimientos y cultura.

Jugamos SÚPER PARTIDO de LIGA DE 60 MINUTOS en FIFA 19
Asumimos un nuevo reto en este FIFA 19 que tantas alegrías nos está dando. No apostaba yo mucho por este título al incluirlo en el canal, pero he de reconocer que se ha convertido en el elemento estrella y no sin razón.
Sobre todo porque involucra a los suscriptores y nos hace sentir una COMUNIDAD, posteemos en el chat en directo o no. Y eso hace que yo también disfrute más con el juego y con la evolución de cada partida.
Como siempre, os recuerdo que da igual con qué equipo esté jugando. Poned vuestra camiseta y vuestros colores y vamos a descojonarnos un rato juntos, que de eso se trata.
Y no os perdáis los comentarios de SÚPER BANDIT, que está que se sale últimamente y de ANSELMO, que está hecho todo un LATIN LOVER.
