It is recommended that you study in the following ways:
Step 1: Gist listening. Listen to get the main idea. (more times if necessary)
Step 2: Read the text to find out words you didn't get, then look up the dictionary. 
Step 3: Listen and imitate as much as you can without looking at the text.
Step 4: Write down what you hear if you want to practise writing.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
每个人多多少少都有一些烦恼，不同年龄的人烦恼的事情可能不太一样。今天我们来听听一个采访，从5岁到90岁的人，聊聊他们人生的难题。采访有点长，我们分两次听，今天先听5岁到40岁的。
5岁：能不能不去上学啊？
10岁：我都这么大了，还要上学，所以应该没有办法了，就是要上一辈子学。我的人生难题是我以后上清华还是北大呀。
15岁：你先能考上初中再说吧。我喜欢我们班上的一个男生，他好像不喜欢我。
22岁：有可能是他不喜欢女生啊。（我的难题是）找不到男朋友。
25岁：找不着挺好的。因为找着也得分，挺不靠谱的，你还不如25岁找完了直接就结婚呢。
25岁：我想给我爸妈买房。我就想知道那些三十岁的人是怎么做到的。
30岁：你应该去问四十岁的人。我也没钱。我感觉自己到了人生的瓶颈期，比较迷茫。
40岁：在这个年龄有这种感觉我特别懂，不过，不要怕，坚持就是胜利。因为未来还有更大的瓶颈。我从15岁半就开始工作挣钱了。当过歌手，很有趣；当过演员，也很有趣；现在当导演了，也很有趣。我的疑问就是，我什么时候可以退休啊。
你几岁？你的人生难题是什么呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
