每日口說挑戰傾聽內心：只有你能帶領自己走完 (A-Z - The Inner Voice)

Hello VoiceTubers! Benson here again! Have you ever given up your dreams just because people keep laughing at them? Well, I’ll let you in a little secret of mine, I nearly gave up on my music dream before, because everyone told me that it was impossible to accomplish and laughed at me saying I’m just daydreaming. And what did I do? I just kept on going until I accomplished it! Now I can tell them I released two of my own singles. The journey wasn’t an easy one but once you reach there I can tell you it’s the best feeling in the world, knowing that you accomplished something that seemed impossible at first. Don’t ever let anyone bring you down with words, hopefully the video for today can help you feel that you are invincible. Now let’s take a look at the sentence of the day.

No armor will make you stronger, faster, better. Don't fool yourself. Only one thing can take you from A to Z...You.
沒有任何盔甲能讓你更強壯、更快、更好。別再騙自己了。只有一個東西能從頭到為陪伴你...你自己。

Only you will be giving your best effort to achieve your goals, so there’s no need to care too much about others’ opinions and judgements since it’s not even THEIR goals to begin with. , Okay guys? Alright, that’s all I want to tell you, so now let’s move on to pronunciation tips.

Armor 為 armour 的美式拼法。補充幾個 armor 相關詞彙，armor-plated (a.) 意思是「有裝甲的」，armored car (n.) 為「裝甲車」，而armorer (n.) 則為「軍械士」。

Fool 除了可以當動詞使用外，也可作形容詞與名詞使用，當作形容詞時意思是「愚蠢的」，當作名詞時意思是「笨蛋」。補充幾個fool的動詞片語，fool around 就是「幹蠢事，瞎弄」的意思，而 fool with sth，意思是「使用有難度（或危險）的東西」。
例句
Don’t be fooled by that liar.
不要被那個騙子騙了。
