# Day 100
今天是我百日的口說挑戰日。真的很挑戰，從第一天開始要花5小時以上練習到現在半小時左右就完成了。我的經驗分享是持之以恆不間斷，即便我出國旅遊也是找時間練習。在錄音前我先查單字熟記後再聽主持人的講解練習，熟背短文後默寫再錄音。過程中有時也很挫折，但堅持下去不放棄，相信日後一定會更進步。很感謝Voice Tube 提供這麼實用的平台練習口說英文，也由衷感謝所有的Hosts 專業的解說。大家一起繼續努力！

Before you keep listening, please make sure you’re not eating. If you’ve just eaten, I suggest that you come back later as in this episode we’ll be talking about poop.
