Chinese Terracotta Army
I just found a nice podcast from the Guardian newspaper about the exhibition last year at the British Museum of various parts of the collection of the Terracotta Army.

I studies it a little at school but my knowledge is extremely limited, so it was good to have the Podcast. I then went to the Museum website and downloaded the educational guide which you might also find interesting.

TOEFL materials – videos
Ive been exploring the wonderful information superhighway (otherwise known as Web2.0) for some good resources for Toefl students here is what i have found.
I started looking for items relating to the speaking exam
The first site is via Youtube and its a slightly scarey American called Steve Ford who gives you some tips which i think would be helpful
Another possible resource via Youtube are some model answers being given by students and teachers
check this one for example …
this third clip may help you with your writing exam…

Online Translation Sites
Do any of you currently use any software or sites for tranlsating between different languages?
I tend to use Babylon. Probably because it was the first site i found that was quite good and i like the layout
You can find Babylon here …
Babylon’s translation and dictionary software offers results from a database of 1,300 sources in 75 languages. The database includes 25 professional dictionaries in 14 languages developed by Babylon’s own linguistic team: English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Hebrew, Chinese (Traditional), Chinese (Simplified), Dutch, Russian, Korean and Swedish.
Do you have any other sites that you would recommend???
