Katya, I got you a present.
11
Hmph.
12
You really think I don't remember it's April 1st?
13
And what, is that some holiday?
14
You're such a sneak.

You scared me half to death you two
19
Hey, come on, we were just joking Great joke.
20
Way to go.
21
You ended up giving the hiccups to her.
22
Humans use their lungs to breathe with the help of special muscles, the intercostal and the diaphragm.
23
When these muscles contract, you inhale, and when they relax, you exhale.
24
On its way in, air passes through the vocal cords.
25
If you swallow unchewed food, drink a lot of water in one gulp, or just get scared, then the diaphragm starts contracting uncontrollably.
26
These contractions make the vocal cords close very very quickly which produces a sharp sound that is called a hiccup
27
Looks like they're gone you see Simka no need to worry.
28
Thank goodness, but you shouldn't have done that
29
They're back Katya you gotta try holding your breath
30
Hold it, hold it!
31
I can't anymore.
32
Well, did they stop?

Ah!
34
Someone told me if you have hiccups, someone's thinking about you right now.
35
You're right. But who?
36
Mom?
37
Guess not.
38
Your dad?
39
Not him.
40
Chewsocka!
41
For real, Chewsocka.
42
Nolik.
43
Sorry.
44
The chameleon?
45
Maybe my teacher?
46
Santa Claus in April?
47
All right.
48
We need a different method.
49
Nolik, why aren't you helping?
50
Do you know anything we can try?
51
Uh, of course I know.
52
You need to jump up and down on one leg and count while you're doing it.
53
What?
54
Nice try there.
55
Then think of something yourself.
56
Alright, we'll try your method.
57
One, two, three, four, five, how long should I count?
58
Uh, I didn't figure that out yet.
59
You mean you just came up with this idea?
60
But look, your hiccups are gone.
61
You're right.
62
Aw, thanks, Nolik.
63
You saved the day.
64
People like joking so much that they even came up with the idea the holiday for it, April Fool's Day.
65
For centuries, kids and adults have been playing tricks on each other on that day.
66
For instance, 300 years ago, a crowd of townsfolk gathered together to watch a unique show.
67
But when the curtains opened, there was nobody on the stage.
68
But that's what happens.
69
And if you're not careful, you could get fooled too.
70
One One time they showed a story on television about harvesting pasta that grows on trees.
71
And many people believed it.
72
How funny is that?
73
Yes, tricks and jokes can be lots of fun, but it's important that they not be mean.
74
Before playing a trick on someone, think about whether you would find it funny if someone did it to you.
75
I heard that once there was this guy, he had the hiccups for a hundred years.
76
And was it the poor old guy's friends who scared him?
77
An idea.
78
You need to eat something really sour.
79
Do you have a lemon?
80
Thanks.
81
Why don't you eat it first?
82
Why would I?
83
You got the hiccups.
84
It's all because of you and your stupid tricks.
85
Well, it's not my fault that you can't take a joke.
86
What was that?
87
Happy April Fool's Day.
88
And now it's you, Katya?
89
Well, at least your hiccups are gone.
90
You're right, they are.
91
Simka picked a pack of pickled pack -o -mats.
92
Hooray!
93
Tideesh!
94
I guess the hiccups are contagious.
95
Just don't worry.
96
I have a surefire way to get rid of them.
97
The Online Store One, two, three, turn it!
98
Simka, you need to turn it in the opposite direction.
99
No, it's righty -tighty -lefty -loosey.
100
Why don't you come down here and do it, and I'll sit back and watch you?
101
My dissertation?
102
It went great.
103
I successfully defended it.
104
Professor Eugenius?
105
No, he didn't congratulate me.
106
I told the professor over and over not to forget about that.
107
He wouldn't be our Eugenius if he wasn't forgetful.
108
You should stop your joking and go and tell the professor about Elisa.
109
Five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, and wait, go fix it once again.
110
Hey!
111
Whoa!
112
Guess we shouldn't bother him.
113
Then what do we do now?
114
Look at that, Tweek!
115
What is it?
116
A store on the Internet?
117
Uh -huh.
118
The professor probably wanted to buy flowers, but got distracted.
119
I think we should finish ordering them for him.
120
There are so many bouquets to choose from!
121
I'm sure he'd want the biggest one!
122
What do you think these numbers mean?
123
The number of flowers that are in it.
124
Oh, everything's already filled in.
125
The name, address, and a number for some kind of card.
126
There, done!
127
Tideesh!
128
They'll get here in an hour.
129
If there's something you want to buy, you don't have to go out to a store anymore to get it.
130
Clothing, fresh food, electronics, supplies for your pet or a toy you might like.
131
You can order almost anything you want from an online store without leaving home.
132
It's simple You pick out what you want put it in a shopping cart and pay for it
133
But kids should only shop online with the help of an adult before
134
you know it your order will be delivered straight to your house
135
Just as long as you gave them the right address that is Ah, what a lovely smell.
136
Oh, there's a note in here.
137
To Professor Eugenius, thanks a lot.
138
Hmm?
139
I was certain they were for me.
140
Hey, you got it all wrong.
141
They're from him.
142
They're for you.
143
We can fix this, no problem. To Elisa.
144
Done.
145
Ah!
146
Another bouquet?
147
These kind of flowers always set off my allergies.
148
Professor Eugenius is so absent -minded.
149
First they get sent to the wrong person, then he sends the wrong kind.
150
We can fix it, no problem.
151
Name, address, done.
152
Why does my phone keep making all these funny sounds today?
153
Don't worry, this time we know that we got everything right.
154
Good job, guys.
155
What is this?
156
How?
157
What happened?
158
Um, someone used my card and ordered a ton of flowers without me knowing.
159
No, not a ton.
160
Just three.
161
Bouquets, that is.
162
What?
163
You mean you guys never told the professor?
164
Never told me about what?
165
Well, um, Elisa, she was crying.
166
And you were busy working.
167
We decided to help you out.
168
You decided to help me out by spending a lot of my money?
169
Money?
170
What do you mean, money?
171
You think you can get flowers on the internet without having to pay?
172
That's what those numbers must have been about.
173
But you wanted to order flowers anyway, didn't you?
174
Yes, I did.
175
And look, I've already done it.
176
And then you.. you...
177
Professor Eugenius, you remembered!
178
When you're playing a game with play money, you can spend as much as you want.
179
But when you're playing a game on the Internet, you have to be careful.
180
Many of the websites out there that offer games and cartoons charge real money that is collected using credit or debit cards.
181
Adults get these cards from their banks or through work.
182
They're convenient for paying in places like restaurants, theaters, or stores.
183
Salesmen put the card in a reader to take money from the buyer's bank account,
184
and the buyer gets a message saying how much money he has left.
185
Now people can pay for things directly from their phones.
186
Only kids, you have to remember this simple rule.
187
Don't buy anything through the internet without the help of an adult.
188
Because with just one click, money can be gone for good!
189
Congratulations on defending your dissertation.
190
You did so well.
191
Thanks so much.
192
But you spent much too much money, dear professor.
193
Oh, nothing is too much for you, Elisa.
194
Yes, and I'll make sure that the plant is taken care of properly.
195
It will get watered and fed every single day.
196
And I'll watch it, so I can tell you how you're supposed to be watering them.
197
The Book Where did
198
Tom Thomas go today?
199
He went with his mom to the post office to pick up a package from his grandma.
200
Class!
201
I can't wait to see it!
202
Well, what did your grandma send you?
203
It's the number one coolest present.
204
Did you really get a pack -o -mat?
205
What?
206
I'm allowed to dream, right?
207
I wish it was a pack of math.
208
It's a book.
209
Oh, wow!
210
That's Treasure Island.
211
What's the difference?
212
I think books are as boring as it gets.
213
I agree.
214
Guys, come on!
215
Inside of this book are really cool adventures.
216
What are you talking about?
217
Inside that book are letters.
218
So, you're really not interested at all?
219
Nuh -uh.
220
By the way, inside this book there aren't just letters, it's got pictures.
221
Pictures?
222
A lot of them.
223
And they're exciting, colorful, and huge!
224
How about we take a little peek at those pictures?
225
Oh!
226
Pirates!
227
Uh -huh, a gang of the...
228
Simka, help me out!
229
Whoa!
230
Check out that skull!
231
What's going on here?
232
Well, if we want to find out, we'll have to read it.
233
Will you read it to us?
234
All right.
235
Having taken a hold of the map, the pirates set off to find the stolen treasure, and they walked on and on.
236
The road was winding, and went up and down.
237
Finally, that very pine appeared in the distance.
238
It towered almost 200 feet above the thicket.
239
Sensing that the treasure was close, the pirates rushed forward.
240
Even Silver hopped along on his peg leg.
241
After a moment, everyone was standing at a huge pit.
242
It was dug a long time ago.
243
Its edges were already crumbling and grass was growing at its bottom.
244
There were old boards from boxes lying around, but there was no chest filled with untold riches.
245
Someone had already been there and had stolen the treasure right out from under the noses of the pirates.
246
700 ,000 pounds had disappeared.
247
So what happened after that?
248
Yeah, who stole the treasure from there?
249
Read it.
250
Read it?
251
But reading's boring, you said.
252
Then don't read.
253
I don't care.
254
Me neither.
255
Oh, it's the guy who thinks reading is boring.
256
What?
257
I wasn't reading.
258
I was looking at the pictures.
259
I can't believe you.
260
You're reading it without me?
261
Grab it!
262
Chewsocka, this is not yours.
263
Give me back my book.
264
Pull it harder, harder.
265
Yes.
266
Oh, this is bad.
267
That book was his grandma's present.
268
We'll fix it.
269
In ancient times, people copied books by hand, but now they are made in printing houses.
270
First a mock -up is produced to place the text and pictures where they belong.
271
The pages are then transferred to metal plates which are loaded onto rollers.
272
Ink on the rollers is pressed onto paper as it passes through the printer.
273
The pages are then trimmed to size and stacked into reams.
274
Next the pages are put into order, stitched together into the inner book, and finally glued to the cover.
275
Good.
276
Now carefully.
277
Great job.
278
So now can you read the book to me?
279
I think it's someone's time to go to bed right now.
280
Just a little more, okay?
281
So, it's not boring then?
282
It's not!
283
Tom Thomas, were you reading?
284
Mom, Treasure Island is really great!
285
You were right!
286
It's the number one coolest present!
287
I am so glad you like it.
288
But why don't you continue reading tomorrow?
289
Now it's time for bed.
290
All right.
291
You've managed to wear it out already.
292
Well, me and Chewsocka, we were fighting over the book.
293
I think she also wanted to read it.
294
The Weather Station So what's the word?
295
Did you finish your homework yet?
296
Uh -huh.
297
Way to go.
298
So now you'll finish drawing us, yeah?
299
I don't know.
300
Katya.
301
Let's go outside.
302
Finally, we have some nice weather.
303
Our weather station says it'll be sunny for the rest of the day.
304
What weather station?
305
Our new home one.
306
I just bought it yesterday.
307
Come on, I'll show you.
308
She's never got time for us.
309
It's always school or homework or who knows what.
310
Like sleep and right now she's going out for a walk.
311
Thanks to new technology this time, you've got to admit, that device is pretty cool.
312
A home weather station is a smart thermometer.
313
It measures the current weather conditions outside and predicts what the weather will be like over the next few hours.
314
And not just the temperature, but also the speed of the wind and whether you can expect any rain or snow.
315
In order to do this job, the station needs two parts an outdoor sensor, and an indoor bay station with a screen to display the information.
316
Many of today's weather stations can also send this information to your smartphone.
317
Told you!
318
It's a great gadget!
319
I'll shoot a review after our walk.
320
Uh -huh.
321
I'll go get ready.
322
And what do you think Katya and her mom will do if we go and change the weather a little?
323
With the power of our minds?
324
Not quite with the power of a fixie tab.
325
Time for a little magic.
326
We did it!
327
There we go.
328
You going?
329
Tweek, I promise you, I'll draw you after my walk.
330
All right?
331
Of course that's all right.
332
It's only that I saw the forecast is predicting rain.
333
Uh -huh.
334
Like I really believe that.
335
Katya, grab an umbrella.
336
The forecast just changed.
337
But that's not a big deal, right? Who cares?
338
A little rain won't hurt us.
339
That's what we've got umbrellas for.
340
Actually, I forget where I saw it last.
341
Will you help me find it?
342
All right.
343
What are you going to say now?
344
It's here.
345
What?
346
Mom, check it out.
347
Wow, did it get colder.
348
Let's grab our scarves.
349
Keek, let me do it.
350
The End Since ancient times people have tried to predict the weather.
351
At first their predictions were made by interpreting signs.
352
If birds were flying low it meant it would rain.
353
If the night sky was clear it would be freezing the next day.
354
In the 17th century when Galileo Galilei invented the thermometer, the science of meteorology was born.
355
In those days a weathercock or weathervane was used to show what direction the wind was blowing.
356
And a device called a hydrometer would show how humid the air was.
357
Today all of the changes in the weather are registered by sensors.
358
Their data is being collected every second and is processed by powerful computers.
359
And that's not all!
360
There are satellites orbiting the Earth that are collecting data about the weather down here from up into outer space.
361
I'm not sure if the weather's gone crazy or if this weather station has.
362
Should we check what it says on the internet?
363
Good idea.
364
Where's my phone?
365
Hey, Fixies.
366
What are you planning on doing next?
367
Get out of there or just forget about me drawing you.
368
What else could we do to keep you at home?
369
Stop your sulking.
370
I can draw an extra picture of you after my walk.
371
Yeah!
372
Tideesh!
373
But only if you fix the weather station you broke.
374
What do you mean?
375
We didn't break it.
376
So you two.
377
Peace?
378
Peace.
379
It looks like our weather station got it all wrong.
380
I just made peace with it.
381
It needed a restart.
382
Now it's working fine.
383
What a smart girl you are.
384
Then let's go before the weather changes again.
385
What shall we do while they're away?
386
Go stroll together?
387
Hey, look, Tweak.
388
Now it's really showing rain.
389
And they forgot to take umbrellas.
390
That's why the forecast must have changed.
391
If you forget your umbrella, count on getting rained on.
392
The Quest Oh, colleagues!
393
I've been looking for you.
394
Can you help?
395
Just a minute, Professor.
396
We're finishing up a quest.
397
Uh, the what?
398
The quest.
399
It's a game.
400
Hmm, now chess I've heard of.
401
And backgammon, of course. But quest?
402
I don't know that one.
403
Wow!
404
I thought you knew everything.
405
You're a professor.
406
Sure, I'm a professor, of course.
407
That's very true.
408
It's just I haven't, um, played it, that's all.
409
You've never been on a quest before?
410
Uh, yeah, but I'm not much for kids' games.
411
I have an image to uphold.
412
The quest is not just for kids.
413
A quest is made up of many different tasks that the players have to complete in order to win the prize, like a treasure, for example.
414
First the players learn the lore of the game.
415
Depending on the quest, they can be detectives, Ghostbusters, or even astronauts.
416
The players can explore lots of different locations while looking for clues, or they can arrange a quest right at home.
417
You just have to come up with the story and the tasks.
418
Then invite your friends and let the game begin.
419
Good luck on your quest.
420
I'm gonna go and...
421
How about going on a quest, Professor?
422
I'd love to, but science awaits, my friends.
423
I, uh...
424
Are you scared you might lose, Professor?
425
Me?
426
Pfft!
427
How long does one of these quests take?
428
Ten minutes.
429
Ten?
430
I'll do it in five.
431
Okay, you're a seasoned detective.
432
In this quest, you're investigating the mysterious disappearance of a valuable museum artifact.
433
Something's gone missing?
434
Don't worry, that's only the lure.
435
I think I understand.
436
Now find the missing item before the thieves escape with it.
437
Wait, Katya!
438
The timer's on.
439
Where do I start?
440
Hey, look for the clue.
441
Ah, there it is.
442
What is it?
443
It's a fragment of a picture.
444
No hinting.
445
Yes, Nolik, I've figured it out.
446
Now I just have to find the others.
447
Ah, there's another fragment.
448
Now where are the other two?
449
This looks to me like an animal cell.
450
Is this the missing artifact?
451
That's not it.
452
It's over there!
453
I've got it!
454
It's over there!
455
Okay, let's see now.
456
Did you break the skeleton's finger?
457
Sure, for the quest.
458
Don't worry, Professor.
459
Just put it back.
460
The first quests appeared a long time ago.
461
In ancient Rome, quests were tales of great heroes' adventures.
462
In the 19th century, a popular game had players searching through their cities for notes marked with secret codes.
463
At the 20th century's end, computer quests became all the rage.
464
These computer games were simple at first, but then entire lifelike virtual worlds appeared, where you could walk through simulated locations looking for clues.
465
One day, a man met a woman playing a virtual computer game.
466
She was stuck in a room searching for an exit.
467
And he had an idea.
468
What if somebody could recreate an exciting quest and put it inside a real, actual room?
469
And that's how quests like ours began.
470
Now everyone in the world can enjoy them.
471
Almost there, Professor. Where?
472
Here?
473
Time's up.
474
Just a little more time.
475
I don't think these quests are for me.
476
Hey, I think I found it.
477
Tideesh!
478
Quest complete!
479
You finished your first quest.
480
Yay!
481
I, a respected professor, on a quest for a chocolate trophy.
482
Uh -huh.
483
Why are you eating it, Professor Eugenius?
484
I'm eating it, so no one else will steal it.
485
The Fitness Tracker What's with all the stomping?
486
It feels like we're having an earthquake in the TV.
487
Huh?
488
Sorry, Nolik.
489
I'm trying out this fitness tracker.
490
Awesome!
491
It's yours?
492
My mom's.
493
She uses it for working out.
494
So it belongs to your mom, but you're trying it out?
495
She left it at home today, so I just, uh, borrowed it.
496
Now that I think of it, I'm helping her out.
497
How?
498
My mom told me that you need to walk 10 ,000 steps every single day.
499
So I'll walk them for her, and the tracker will count them.
500
10 ,000 steps, are you sure?
501
How can you do that in one day?
502
A fitness tracker can help you maintain a healthy, fit lifestyle.
503
It has different built -in sensors.
504
They measure your heart rate, blood pressure, count your steps throughout the day, and can even serve as your alarm clock.
505
Everything gets recorded and displayed on the screen.
506
But remember, all the tracker does is count and display numbers.
507
It's up to you to do the getting up, walking, running, and exercising.
508
But I'm sure you can handle that.
509
One hundred ninety -nine, two hundred, two hundred and one, two hundred and two, two hundred and three.
510
At this pace you'll be at it all day.
511
Try running instead.
512
That's more like it.
513
All right, all right.
514
Keep it up.
515
Keep it up, keep it up.
516
Enough.
517
I think 500 steps is enough for me.
518
But what about your mom?
519
She'll be tired at the end of the day.
520
Who's going to get her steps in?
521
Ugh.
522
Now I'm done.
523
Let me do it.
524
Come on, Nolik, you've got this!
525
Nope.
526
Maybe we should put the tracker on Chewsocka.
527
No, wait.
528
We can finish this ourselves.
529
Right, Tom Thomas?
530
Exercise is one of the best things you can do for your health.
531
Although not everyone has the strength or makes enough time for it, there's actually an easy way to keep yourself in shape.
532
Walking.
533
Preferably outdoors if you can.
534
Every day.
535
To make it easier to walk long distances, you can try using walking poles.
536
This style is known as Nordic walking.
537
Or if the weather outside is bad, you can walk on a treadmill inside.
538
You can try walking at different speeds and inclines on a treadmill.
539
Or you can try race walking.
540
Race walkers use a special walking technique and can cover dozens of miles, set records, and even compete in the Olympic Games.
541
9 ,900.
542
98, 9 ,999?
543
Stop!
544
What?
545
Didn't you say a person needs to walk 10 ,000 steps a day? So?
546
Well, what if you take more steps than that?
547
What do you think could happen?
548
Well, maybe your legs could fall off.
549
Tom Thomas, I'm home.
550
Come help me with the groceries, please.
551
What do I do now?
552
Sit still and don't take any steps.
553
Just don't move.
554
Tom Thomas, I've been calling you.
555
Didn't you hear?
556
Yeah, I did, but I can't move.
557
And why not?
558
Because I've already walked 10 ,000 steps for the day.
559
Well, that's wonderful, dear.
560
But what's wrong?
561
I can't walk any more than that.
562
You can walk as much as you want to.
563
One day, I walked 20 ,000 steps.
564
Sometimes that's what it's like at work.
565
Now come help me and we'll go walk in the park, okay?
566
Park!
567
Park!
568
The Crane We did it!
569
The first floor of our Fixie skyscraper is done!
570
And only a hundred floors left to go.
571
I got this!
572
Let me try and help you.
573
We need something a bit bigger and stronger.
574
Oh!
575
DJ, come here.
576
Wow!
577
With this crane, we could build an actual skyscraper.
578
A crane is a very tall tower used for building things with a long arm called a jib.
579
The jib has a rope with a hook which lifts up the cargo.
580
But building a crane isn't easy.
581
You need a big cargo truck.
582
And finally, once the crane is nearly built, they put on a climbing frame.
583
It's like a big metal frame on the tower.
584
It builds itself using these new frames.
585
They just keep going until it's as tall as it needs to be.
586
A little left, more, a little more, a little lower, now more left.
587
Building a tower?
588
Dive scraper!
589
Well, let's hurry then.
590
Lower, go on.
591
That's it.
592
Now that's how it's done, Nolik.
593
But now it's crooked.
594
See?
595
It's fine.
596
I have an eye for these things.
597
Digit, grab the next one.
598
No, use the green one.
599
It's pretty.
600
Actually, red.
601
No, use the green one. Or yellow?
602
So wait, which one?
603
Take the blue one.
604
Did you stop?
605
If we keep arguing like this, we'll never finish.
606
But Fire, we want it to be pretty.
607
It doesn't need to be pretty.
608
Just tall, right?
609
Don't you guys have a blueprint?
610
We hadn't really thought about all that.
611
No blueprint?
612
Your tower's gonna fall.
613
It's fine so far.
614
What's most important is that it's pretty.
615
No, you're wrong.
616
You need a plan.
617
Digit, don't worry.
618
Just keep going.
619
Get the green one.
620
Lift it.
621
Wait, not yet.
622
Simka, we'll take care of this while you draw a plan.
623
Without a plan, you can't build.
624
And it really won't be beautiful.
625
This is ridiculous.
626
Let's all draw a plan.
627
First we have to make sure the colors match.
628
It's fine, just go.
629
But it needs a blueprint.
630
It doesn't matter if it's ugly.
631
It needs a plan.
632
Oh my goodness, just stop.
633
People, when you just go, they're going to be super fast.
634
In ancient times, humans lived in caves.
635
Eventually, they made pit houses.
636
Take a pit, stack some logs, boom!
637
Problem was, these were pretty dark inside.
638
Later, people learned how to make houses from stones.
639
The first multi -story houses appeared in ancient Rome thousands of years ago.
640
These were called insoli.
641
Over the years, we learned how to build taller.
642
At the end of the 19th century in America, they built the first 10 -story building.
643
People thought it was so tall, it could touch the sky.
644
That's where they got.. the term skyscraper.
645
I suppose they also could have called it a cloud scraper.
646
Today, the world's tallest building is in Dubai.
647
It's a skyscraper 163 stories tall.
648
It's not a plan.
649
It'll be a map.
650
Hey, stop fighting.
651
Look, it's done, guys.
652
Cool.
653
I believe it's actually super cool.
654
You did an amazing job.
655
She's right.
656
That's a pretty sweet building.
657
But you gotta fix that block over there.
658
Can you move the spire, please?
659
Oh, be careful!
660
Aw, it used to be cool. But it was pretty
661
Should have had a plan
662
That's alright guys
663
We'll build a new one I guess so
664
But we could use a few more supervisors
665
The Safety Harness Hey Nolik I say we go scare Elisa What do you think?
666
Yeah I'm in Alright let's go
667
Hey Nolik Where are you going?
668
What about the rock climbing?
669
We changed our plans for you.
670
Getting some lessons was your idea.
671
You're right.
672
Fire, I'm sorry.
673
I wish we could play our trick, but they invited me.
674
I invited you too, didn't I?
675
But you did it later.
676
You want to join us?
677
No, thanks.
678
Fire, are you upset with me?
679
Just go already.
680
They're tired of waiting around.
681
Why did Nolik do that?
682
Just trade me in for the new kids.
683
Just you waiting, Nolik.
684
you'll be crying your heart out to be with me.
685
There we go!
686
Pull yourself up!
687
This harness is just getting in my way.
688
Look where fire climbed all the way to!
689
And without any of these ropes!
690
You know, maybe it's less comfortable with a safety harness, but I'm sure I wouldn't want to fall without one.
691
Rock climbers wear special belts called climbing harnesses with loops on them.
692
Fastened to one of the loops is a hook with a lock called a carabiner.
693
The carabiner is connected to a secure rope protecting the climber from a dangerous fall.
694
By the way, safety harnesses?
695
They're not just for mountain climbing.
696
They protect window cleaners on skyscrapers and aerial gymnasts under the circus big top.
697
And come to think of it, a seatbelt in a car is a safety harness too!
698
Really?
699
No reaction?
700
Then wait till you see these, Nolik!
701
I'm going to go to the next one.
702
I'm going to go to the next one.
703
I'm going to go to the next one.
704
I'm going to go to the next one.
705
I'm going to go to the next one.
706
I'm going to go to the next one.
707
I'm going to go to the next one.
708
I'm going to go to the next one.
709
I'm going to go to the next one.
710
Check this out!
711
While we climbed up one mountain, Fire climbed up ten of them!
712
Together with my true friend Digit?
713
Then what am I?
714
Wait, give me that!
715
I could be wrong, but I think there's some cutting and pasting here.
716
You see?
717
That Digit's from another picture.
718
Look, there you can see some of the laboratory.
719
It looks like your best friend wasn't doing any climbing today.
720
Only, um, I don't get why he did that.
721
Yo, Nolik, you've got to be bored over there.
722
How can your rock climbers even compare to me?
723
Uh -huh.
724
Well, no one can compare with your lying.
725
My what?
726
Those mountains of yours are not real.
727
What makes you say that?
728
You're not even wearing a harness.
729
Because I don't need one.
730
Yeah!
731
Hey, stop fire, you could fall.
732
I'm not a scaredy cat like some fixies who I know quickly to the laboratory
733
you could get hurt without a harness you know what what did you protect him.
734
Help!
735
Fire, hang in there!
736
We're coming to save you!
737
Before trying to become a real mountain climber, beginners should start by getting some training at a rock climbing wall with an instructor.
738
While the wall is not a real mountain, it's still important to follow the rules.
739
The best kind of clothes for wall climbing are gym clothes.
740
For your footwear it's best to wear athletic shoes that have a non -slip sole on them.
741
You must never start climbing until after the instructor checks that you're wearing your safety harness correctly and that it's fastened securely.
742
While you wait for your turn move away from the wall
743
so another rock climber can't land on your head and no selfies up there.
744
While you don't need to be afraid of falling if you have your harness on,
745
it's still a lot more interesting to make it all the way to the top.
746
That fall could have killed you.
747
As if anyone cares what happens to me.
748
Hey, we all care about you, Fire.
749
You really care?
750
Nolik, you're my best friend in the whole world.
751
Woo -hoo.
752
When are you going to tell Digit?
753
By the way, that looks like a good climb.
754
Wanna try it?
755
Only you'll do it the right way this time.
756
Biggie!
757
One, two, Virtual Reality.
758
Four, five.
759
Ready or not, here we come.
760
You find Tom Thomas, I'll find Katya.
761
I never found anyone before that quickly.
762
It's just because I'm bigger than you.
763
That's all.
764
It's not a problem for Katya.
765
Now, where could she be?
766
You're so small.
767
That hiding's easier, everything's easier.
768
Not a care in the world.
769
You sure about that?
770
I'd love if I could become a fixie, but it's just not possible.
771
Hmm.
772
It's possible.
773
How?
774
If you put on a pair of virtual reality glasses.
775
Oh, yeah.
776
Katya's got a pair of them here.
777
She's going to be so upset she wasn't here when you used them.
778
Yeah?
779
Well, you won't be able to find them without me.
780
Virtual reality glasses have a pair of lenses inside of them that are each projecting a different image.
781
The left image is very close to the one on the right, but it's shot from a slightly different angle,
782
making the brain believe it's looking at one 3D scene.
783
No matter how far you turn your head, the view doesn't end.
784
By the way, special sensors can track your movements, which means you can use these glasses to play games, take rides, or even exercise!
785
The game's done!
786
What we made for you is so cool!
787
You'll love it!
788
Now we'll see what kind of fixie you'd be.
789
You need to get to the kitchen on your own and then fix the toaster.
790
You get five minutes total.
791
I'll need only three.
792
Turn on the game.
793
Ah, whoa!
794
Everything's so huge!
795
It's so high!
796
Jump!
797
To the floor?
798
Like I said, he won't get through a minute of this.
799
Tideesh!
800
That wasn't too hard.
801
Now try getting to the stairs.
802
It's only three steps to get there.
803
More like a hundred and thirty -three.
804
Run, Tom -Thomas!
805
Faster!
806
Oh!
807
Where are the fixie boards?
808
A fixie can solve any problem with quick thinking.
809
Tom Thomas, there's a rope in front of you.
810
Grab it!
811
We should try doing that sometime ourselves.
812
Chewsocka, hi there!
813
Chewsocka?
814
In our home?
815
I was joking around.
816
Huh?
817
Hey, it's me!
818
Don't celebrate yet, you still got a toaster to fix.
819
You've only got one minute left.
820
But I don't have a pack -o -mat. So?
821
Just another joke there.
822
Help me!
823
Help me!
824
Run inside the toaster!
825
You're a fixie!
826
It's dark in here and my hair doesn't glow.
827
Save me!
828
I don't want to be a fixie anymore!
829
That's enough!
830
The first glasses for seeing three -dimensional pictures were invented as far back as the 19th century.
831
That device was called a stereoscope.
832
Doesn't it remind you of something?
833
Today, people wear quite similar glasses when they watch 3D movies.
834
But let's travel back in time to the last century.
835
It was then that the first entertainment attraction with virtual reality was built.
836
When a person would put his head inside of the machine, he could have found himself feeling like a racer.
837
He'd see the picture, hear the sound, even smell the sea.
838
And the chair he was sitting on would vibrate.
839
Today it's not necessary to sit in one place.
840
You can just put a helmet on your head, grab a pair of sensors, and be right inside the game.
841
Save me!
842
Save me!
843
Time's up!
844
You can take the glasses off.
845
Who am I?
846
Where am I?
847
So, is it easy to be a Fixie?
848
Not a care in the world.
849
Actually, I would say being human is easier.
850
I've got another game for us to try.
851
At least I won't have to hide from anyone in this one.
852
No!
853
Not again!
854
The Christmas Surprise Ho ho ho!
855
Merry Christmas!
856
Ha!
857
All done!
858
The robot's all fixed up, and we can finally go home!
859
Uh -huh.
860
Masi and Papus are waiting for me.
861
Oh!
862
But Mr. Norm is still here!
863
Yeah!
864
He's gotta clean up.
865
That's his job.
866
But today's Christmas Eve!
867
We're going home to celebrate, and he'll be here all alone.
868
I hear ya, but he's doing his job!
869
Ta -da!
870
Merry Christmas!
871
Nolik, enough with all the pranking.
872
I was just trying to be festive.
873
Quiet.
874
Mr. Normal hear you.
875
I bet he's feeling really low.
876
I can't believe he has to spend Christmas Eve all by himself.
877
Hey, I've got it.
878
He just needs a Christmas cracker.
879
Great idea.
880
You want us to scare him?
881
Oh, come on, guys.
882
It's super fun.
883
Hey, why not?
884
But I have no idea how we would make one.
885
Come on, I'll show you.
886
We'll come up with our own idea.
887
Right, Tula?
888
You can make a simple Christmas cracker right in your own home.
889
Just roll up a piece of cardboard, or you can use a toilet paper tube.
890
Then you pick up a balloon and cut off the top part, and tie the balloon in a knot.
891
Pull the balloon over the cardboard and wrap your cracker with pretty paper or drop pictures on it.
892
Then put some confetti and glitter inside.
893
Aim your cracker straight up, pull at the neck of the balloon, and boom!
894
Awesome, right?
895
Huh?
896
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, ho ho ho, Merry Christmas, ho ho ho,
897
Merry Christmas, ho ho ho, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas.
898
And here on Christmas Eve, on Christmas Eve, the clock sticks lower,
899
and miracles come out of nowhere,
900
and miracles come out of nowhere, on Christmas Eve.
901
Who's there?
902
Show yourself!
903
That cheered him right up.
904
I told you it would scare him.
905
Not like you and Tula did any better.
906
No fighting.
907
We were all just trying to help.
908
Yeah, but look how that turned out.
909
Poor guy.
910
He'll be working all night long.
911
Many people celebrate Christmas and New Year's at work.
912
For example, take doctors.
913
They're always on call in case someone urgently needs help.
914
Guards, police officers, and firemen remain on duty to handle any emergency that comes up.
915
The good news is, you can be festive anywhere, even at work.
916
On flights and train rides, the crew wish the passengers a happy new year at midnight.
917
Astronauts celebrate Christmas and New Year's far from Earth in zero gravity.
918
But they still attach a Christmas tree to the ceiling and decorate it.
919
And then they call
920
Earth and wish all their loved ones a happy and merry holiday.
921
The Fixies are on duty as well, always ready to help someone in need.
922
Ah, kids.
923
Professor.
924
Good evening, Mr. Norm.
925
And a very Merry Christmas.
926
What's the broom for?
927
Strange things have been happening all night.
928
The balloons, the lights, Christmas crackers going off with no warning.
929
Ah, looks like someone else had the same idea to bring you some holiday cheer. Who?
930
Uh, Santa Claus, of course
931
Look, that right there
932
That's Santa Claus Ah, you guys
933
Alright then Come on, Grandpa Poppet Hooray!
934
Hooray!
935
On Christmas Eve The cloth sticks so as And miracles
936
Come out of the way
937
Now it feels like Christmas!
938
Peace!
939
The Disco And one, two,
940
three, one, two, three, one, two, three, one, two...
941
Don't stop now, you're really getting it.
942
Ow!
943
Are you dancing?
944
Sweet!
945
Think I can join in?
946
Hmm, you don't appear to have a partner.
947
I can dance with Tula.
948
I mean, you're all set.
949
Hold it.
950
I know I'm good, but I still need to practice.
951
I know.
952
Digit can be my partner. Where were we?
953
Digit, will you come dance with me?
954
Er, I don't know how.
955
Verde can teach us.
956
She's a really experienced dancer.
957
Well, all right.
958
This hand goes here.
959
Now just do what we do.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
