Street Scenes In China, 1950s - Film 37413
Street scenes from a riverside city in China.
Chinese flag flying. Village streets, very dilapidated poor housing, many children smiling and laughing at the camera. Nicer wider street, children walking along. Water collection point. Elderly woman cooking. Man cooks rice using solar power on contraption that looks a bit like a satellite dish. He shows bystanders his rice. Smarter suburban tree lined street with young children playing on a kids slide in a playground. A grand colonial building children run across the lawn and enter. Inside they stop and look at wooden carved toys of African animals. People march along a street carrying banners. Tranquil lakeside.Chinese water colour painting and carvings. Exterior of a building with statue in front, museum? View of city from rooftop. Executive car exits from the driveway of a Chinese building, looks like a government building. Rickshaw with passenger briefly pedals along the street. Silhouette of Chinese temple roof line with carved dragon. Inside temple, icons and shrines.
Messerschmitt Me 262
The Messerschmitt Me 262 Schwalbe (English: Swallow) of Nazi Germany was the world's first operational jet-powered fighter aircraft. Design work started before World War II began, but engine problems and top-level interference kept the aircraft from operational status with the Luftwaffe until mid-1944. Compared with Allied fighters of its day, including the British jet-powered Gloster Meteor, it was much faster and better armed. One of the most advanced aviation designs in operational use during World War II, the Me 262 was used in a variety of roles, including light bomber, reconnaissance, and even experimental night fighter versions.
Me 262 pilots claimed a total of 542 Allied kills, although higher claims are sometimes made. The Allies countered its potential effectiveness in the air by attacking the aircraft on the ground and during takeoff and landing. Engine reliability problems—from the pioneering nature of its Junkers Jumo 004 axial-flow turbojet engines, the first ones ever placed in mass production—and attacks by Allied forces on fuel supplies during the deteriorating late-war situation also reduced the effectiveness of the aircraft as a fighting force. In the end, the Me 262 had a negligible impact on the course of the war as a result of its late introduction and the consequently small numbers put in operational service.

Makati City | Wikipedia audio article
This is an audio version of the Wikipedia Article:
Makati City
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.
