Read the IHT!

The International Herald Tribune http://www.iht.com/

You may have seen this newspaper at the airport or at the better newsstands around town. It has many good quality articles and most importantly in the online version, two features students have found quite useful.

Here's how you can get more out of your reading experience.

Click on an article you would like to read and then look in the little box to the right of the headline. Among other things, you will see:
1) “Listen to article”, so you can read along as you listen.
2) “Translate”, so if you need some help with the difficult words, you have them translated into German. You can also get English definitions.

Try it out with one of today’s stories...

or this one:
