This Google Translate (Web Translator and Reader) application which has been developed on the Android platform allows you to translate the news from yahoo on the web into Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Korean.
In addition to allowing you to read at your own pace, this application also provides you the feature of dictating the news automatically in either English, Spanish, German or French, so that you can just listen to the news and focus on multitasking rather than staring at your phone all the time.
All you need to enter is the URL of the news article from Yahoo and click on the Read icon to have the news dictated to you automatically.
Examples of some urls are as follows:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_terror_bomb_plot
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_daycare_center_fire
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20110225/ts_alt_afp/lifestylehealthusanimalobesity
