- 选择比你现有水平稍高一点点的材料。能听懂60%-80%的内容。如果几乎全懂,说明太简单;如果几乎不懂,则太难。
- 不暂停播放的情况下,能大致跟上并理解主要内容。遇到几个生词或听不懂的句子是正常的,这正是学习的起点。

Or maybe a tiger on my back.D: Yeah, but it's something that you'll have forever. They use indelible ink that can only be removed with laser treatment. On top of all of that, I've heard it hurts a lot.C: Really?D: Of course! They use a machine with a needle that pokes your skin and inserts the ink.C: Ohh, I didn't know that. I thought they just painted on your skin or something.D: I think you should reconsider and do some more research about tattoos. Also, find out where the nearest tattoo parlor is and make sure that they sterilize the needles and the place is hygienic.C: Umm... maybe I should just get a tongue piercing.D: Eww.- indelible ink,or an indelible stain cannot be removed or washed out.
