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
=======
MZR is the brand name of a generation of Inline-four engines engineered and built by the Mazda Motor Corporation from 2001 to the present. MZR stands for "MaZda Responsive". The MZR generation includes gasoline and diesel powered engines ranging in displacements from 1.3L to 2.5L.
All gasoline-powered MZR engines feature an all-aluminum block construction with iron cylinder liners. The diesel MZR-CD engines use a cast-iron block (virtually identical to the Mazda F engine) and an aluminum cylinder head.
There are three specific engine families within the MZR which include:

the small 1.3L to 1.6L Mazda Z engine
the mid-sized 1.8L to 2.5L Mazda L engine
the 2.0L and 2.2L common-rail diesel Mazda R-engineThe DISI turbocharged MZR L3-VDT was on the Ward's 10 Best Engines list for 3 consecutive years for 2006, 2007 and 2008.
The Ford Motor Company owns rights to build and use the MZR generation of engines under their Duratec brand name for global service in its vehicles since 2003.
As of 2011, Mazda discontinued development of the MZR generation of engines and replaced it with their new SkyActiv generation of engines. Some early 2012 Mazda cars are equipped with the 2.0 MZR engines as an option as well. Ford continues to develop and manufacture variants of the Z and L engines for their Duratec and EcoBoost four-cylinder engines. The third generation MX-5 was still produced with the MZR 1.8 or 2.0 engine, which may be shipped from the factory with a Ford oil filter fitted, suggesting a shared production line.
