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.

The National Assembly (Pashto: ملی شورا‎ Mili Shura, Persian: شورای ملی‎ Shura-e Milli), also known as the Afghanistan Parliament, is Afghanistan's national legislature. It is a bicameral body, comprising two chambers:

Meshrano Jirga (Pashto: مشرانوجرګه‎)) or the House of Elders: an upper house with 102 seats.
Wolesi Jirga (Pashto: ولسي جرګه‎) or the House of the People: a lower house with 250 seats.According to Chapter Five of the Constitution of Afghanistan, "the National Assembly of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan as the highest legislative organ is the manifestation of the will of its people and represents the whole nation. Every member of the National Assembly takes into judgment the general welfare and supreme interests of all people of Afghanistan at the time of casting their vote".The National Assembly is located in south-western Kabul, across the ruined Darul Aman Palace.. The current building for the Assembly was built with Indian assistance and inaugurated in late 2015 by Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi and Afghan President Ashraf Ghani.
