What to do in 茫茫英文字海?
Let's face the reality of the situation here.
English isn't difficult, it is just vast.
Non-native speakers without solid foundation will feel frustrated in most situation where the listening materials are intented for native speakers, especially when the materials are sophisticated and worth listening to.
What makes the challenge so daunting? English speaking societies are highly developed. Materials from highly developed societies are expected to be more nuanced.
There are only two basic ways to improve your listening skill.
1. Listen by yourself. When you encounter something you don't understand, you can switch to a easier materials or stay the course.
2. Listen with somebody who's willing to explain everything when you don't understand. This one can be more expensive, obviously.

Thanks for your suggestion.

I apologize if my previous post doesn't sound like a practical suggestion. Learning to listen to a new language is like learning to walk, except once you think you know how to walk, you may find yourself on your knees crawling again.

Your suggestion stimulates deep thought.
I very appreciate.

Most English learners in Taiwan somehow believe that they can just learn a little but get to know a whole lot. Well, it is amazing how much information the human brain can hold. Those whom haven't learned just aren't inspired enough to learn or unwilling to take the time and effort, not because they are stupid.
Nobody can listen and understand things that are totally unfamiliar to them. Listening comprehension is the battle against the relentless unfamiliarity at first. The objective is to get over the learning curve as soon as possible.

Learning Curve Effect

The learning curve effect and the closely related experience curve effect express the relationship between experience and efficiency. As individuals and/or organizations get more experienced at a task, they usually become more efficient at them. Both concepts originate in the adage, "practice makes perfect", and both concepts are opposite to the popular misapprehension that a "steep" learning curve means that something is hard to learn. In fact, a "steep" learning curve implies that something gets easier quickly.
