8
when you first started working on basil the bee well at the start i thought it wouldn't take much time
9
because it was a cartoon yeah but i suppose
10
that even a simple story is a bit of a challenge i mean
11
when you're trying to decide what's going to happen in it
12
you spend longer than you realize Is the character you give a voice to, Basil the Bee, like you in any way?
13
I think maybe in appearance.
14
He does look like me, I suppose, although his head is rounder than mine.
15
But he wasn't supposed to look like me.
16
That wasn't the plan.
17
The team of artists just designed a face that we all enjoyed looking at.
18
We felt that he was cute and a bit funny.
19
How did your family feel about hearing your voice in a cartoon?
20
I'm not exactly sure about my children.
21
The little one doesn't recognise it as me, but she loves bees.
22
She always insists on seeing the DVD of Basil before she goes off to bed at night.
23
Did you expect it to be so popular with children?
24
Well, during the time we were making it,
25
I occasionally showed my children and some of their friends little parts of it on the computer.
26
They'd go crazy and watch it over and over again.
27
It's so funny.
28
There's nothing more fun than entertaining children, but I never intended it as a movie specially aimed at them or teenagers.
29
I just wanted to make it as funny as I could.
30
Why do you think that so many people see bees as good bugs?
31
I think they have a complicated society, which is very scientific, and the organisation to produce honey,
32
which of course is the whole idea, like what their life is for, is about making honey.
33
So, we see them as almost human in their behaviour Doing a job,
34
getting on with life, and so on And you yourself, do you feel you care more about bees than you used to?
35
Bees are the bugs I've always preferred Apart from that,
36
I'm not a great fan of bugs on the whole With bees,
37
they live like we might do one day They fly around so fast, each with his or her own little flying machine.
38
They visit flowers which are beautiful and they create something delicious.
39
Somehow, I feel they're a quite different creature from other bugs.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
