【本集文稿】 Hey folks, welcome to my last episode of daily pronunciation challenge. And by popular demand, today I’ll be introducing a psychological and philosophical topic: Who are you?
That’s right, we’ve probably been asking ourselves this question since the beginning of time. Who am I? What’s the purpose of my being? What can I achieve in the future? To answer that question, remember that before we achieve we’ve gotta believe. If you’re in doubt, not sure about your decisions at the moment, that’s okay, because that is life telling you to slow down and calm down and to think within your heart. Life is constantly whispering answers to you, you just have to find a way to translate it.
And that my friends, brings us to our sentence of the day.
Don't succumb to someone else's idea of who you're supposed to be, discover what it means exactly, to be the best version of yourself.
Humans have a special instinct and common habit, which is to become better and to improve. Therefore, don't doubt the possibility of pursuing your goals and dreams, and never underestimate your true potential. What if a businessman was supposed to be a sculptor? What if the janitor was supposed to be a florist? And what if the receptionist was supposed to travel to space? You define who you are, nobody else does.
Who defines a vocabulary? Hmm.. The dictionary does. So let’s look at the vocab we’ve got here.
【Question Time!】 1. Who are you? Describe yourself using at least three adjectives. 2. If you were given one free wish, what would you wish for?
【本集結尾】 Alrighty then! And that’s it for the day. We all need some positivity from time to time. I Hope you guys enjoy the show today. Believe in yourself, YES YOU CAN.
Folks thank you so much for listening to my pronunciation challenge show. I started out back in February and now after 6 months I’m saying goodbye to you. I wish you all the best and a rosy future. Bye!
Just kidding, I’ll be back next week for the CNN 10 pronunciation challenge. I’ve seen your responses from the survey You guys really gave me some great advice And I would like to thank every listener, especially those of you who told me your names. I will take notes from your advice and suggestions for the CNN 10 show. And from now on, I’ll be with you guys every Tuesday. Bringing you something new, just for you, and only on VoiceTube.
Love you guys!

漫漫人生路，退休的日子卻如飛的過去，我退休16年了！
對生命已經心滿意足，非常感恩！
