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
=======
Pennsylvania's first congressional district includes primarily central and South Philadelphia, the City of Chester, the Philadelphia International Airport, and other small sections of Delaware County.  The district was strongly Democratic and was plurality black.  Bob Brady, the chairman of the Philadelphia Democratic Party, has represented the district since 1998. In January 2018, Brady announced that he will not run for re-election in 2018.The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania redrew this district in February 2018 after ruling the previous map unconstitutional; the new district will be similar to the old eighth district, including all of Bucks County and a sliver of Montgomery County, for the 2018 elections and representation thereafter. The old 1st district is geographically succeeded by the newly redrawn 2nd district which in November 6, 2018 elected Brendan Boyle, the incumbent from the 13th district. Brian Fitzpatrick was elected on November 6, 2018 to the newly redrawn 1st district.
One of the main characters of the Netflix original series House of Cards, Peter Russo, is depicted as representing the district in the United States House of Representatives.
