大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【挑战】的话题。
你的生活中，遇到过的最大的挑战是什么呢？我想了一下我自己的经历，有两件事情我觉得是很大的挑战。
第一件事情是，大三的时候我去日本留学。大一大二的时候我学习非常努力，最后通过了面试，拿到了去日本当一年交换生的机会。那是我第一次出国，在那以前，我从来没有坐过飞机。在紧张和害怕中，我开启了日本留学之旅。到了日本以后，因为文化差异，语言障碍和学习压力，我遇到了很多的挑战。但是人往往是在困难中成长的，这一年我经历了很多，也成长了不少。
第二件事情是，我决定从兼职的中文老师变成全职的。在这之前，我在一家日本公司上班。我很喜欢我的同事，但是我对我的工作不是很有激情。我给学生上课的时候就很不一样了，我更开心，也更有活力。决定辞职是一个很大的挑战，因为我要考虑很多的事情。例如，收入是不是稳定？我是不是喜欢在家办公？最后我还是决定辞职了，因为我觉得可以做自己喜欢的工作是一件很幸运的事情，我应该好好抓住这个机会。
你现在的生活有什么挑战呢？我觉得我最大的挑战是做好时间管理，因为我想要做的事情太多了。我每天要给学生上课，我还做中文播客，做中文学习视频。我还想做更多的学习资料，帮助我的学生学好中文。这需要时间，我应该耐心点，一点点做。
关于挑战，你有什么故事？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

挑战 challenge（Intermediate and advanced level）

In the late 1970s, a naive young secretary abandons her hometown in Cleveland for San Francisco, and heads into a brave new world of strange and wonderful characters, in this cult classic novel by the Charles Dickens of San Francisco Armistead Maupin. Maupin writes in a simple, but creative way to blend together the lives of some of the city's most-eccentric inhabitants; which makes the story highly accessible for language learners*.

*Suitable for adults over the age of 18.
