The Amazing Voyages of Sinbad Part 1 Hey Tick!
2
Hey Tick!
3
Can I ask you something?
4
Why is this ocean so boring all the time?
5
Boring?
6
What are you talking about?
7
This is the place of adventure and fearless explorers!
8
Oh!
9
Yay!
10
The adventures of the water!
11
The waves are a gem to see.
12
And these voyagers are so fearless to feed me stale food.
13
Now, now, don't be so negative, Tick.
14
Every once in a while, there comes a man who shows courage and love for the unknown, like Sinbad.
15
Sinbad?
16
Yes, Sinbad the Sailor.
17
Don't you know him?
18
Wait, let's go to the magic pot.
19
His voyages are worth seeing.
20
Well, this is just water.
21
Are you going to do some abracadabra?
22
Ah, abracadabra is old now.
23
Watch and learn.
24
Water, water, clear and blue.
25
Show us all that is lost in you.
26
Oh, magic water, show us the story of Sinbad the Sailor.
27
Welcome to Baghdad.
28
The city of thrills and the home for our Sinbad the sailor.
29
Sinbad, I have heard that you are off to go to another market for business.
30
Yes, Uncle.
31
I was foolish to spend all the money my father had earned.
32
I have nothing left.
33
I have to carry on his business.
34
I will set sail tomorrow with other folks of Baghdad.
35
Very well, son.
36
Bon voyage!
37
Have a safe journey.
38
And so, Sinbad left for his first voyage.
39
Sinbad loved the first time on board.
40
The breeze, the wind, the fresh blue waters.
41
It called out to him.
42
But slowly, he grew tired of it.
43
He desperately wanted to step on the land.
44
But there was no sign of a single island nearby. When suddenly...
45
Captain!
46
I can see a small island!
47
Yay!
48
Captain, look!
49
Oh, this water is killing me!
50
Finally a piece of land!
51
This island looks beautiful!
52
Hey, Sinbad!
53
Where are you going?
54
Food is ready!
55
I will be back soon.
56
I want to look around a bit.
57
This is all beautiful, but I have a feeling that something is wrong.
58
The land feels a little different.
59
Wait!
60
What is happening?
61
Why is the land moving?
62
I have to get back to the ship!
63
Sinbad ran with full speed, but he was so deep into the forest, it was a long way back.
64
Meanwhile, the other merchants also felt the movement in the land.
65
Why is the island moving?
66
Did you feel that too?
67
Hey, wake up!
68
The island is moving!
69
Something is wrong!
70
Yeah!
71
Let's go back to the ship!
72
Run!
73
This is not an island!
74
This is a sleeping whale!
75
We woke her up with the fire!
76
No!
77
Why is this whale sleeping above the water?
78
Take yourselves!
79
Run!
80
And that's what it was!
81
The whale had slept for so long that an entire forest had grown over it!
82
Everyone was so terrified they didn't even know who got on the ship!
83
And who was left behind?
84
Sinbad was running as fast as he can. But then...
85
Whoa!
86
The land just went in.
87
What is happening?
88
The whale was going into the water.
89
And it was going to take the entire forest along with it.
90
No!
91
Wait!
92
Oh!
93
Sinbad thought that it was over for him.
94
But fate had something else in mind.
95
Oh, my man!
96
The ship is gone!
97
What do I do now?
98
I must not lose hope.
99
This water will take me somewhere.
100
Sinbad floated on the tree for days and nights.
101
Finally, he reached ashore.
102
He was so tired, he immediately fell asleep.
103
When he woke up, he was very hungry and thirsty.
104
Ah, this place has nothing.
105
If I want to survive, I have to try to climb this.
106
There must be something up there.
107
Wow, what is this place?
108
Water.
109
Oh, good grace.
110
When I was on this ship, I missed land.
111
Now I am here, I missed water.
112
I am so hungry.
113
What is that noise?
114
Horses!
115
So there must be people around too!
116
You are a strong horse!
117
Where is your rider?
118
Hey!
119
We never saw you here!
120
Who are you?
121
Oh!
122
I am so glad to finally meet some humans!
123
Don't worry, I am not a thief or anything!
124
I was hungry, so I came to the forest for food!
125
I am a sailor!
126
I was on a floating island, which in fact was a whale who drowned me! a whale who drowned me.
127
I then, haha, a whale!
128
Okay, maybe you have hit your head too hard, my friend.
129
Let's give you some food first.
130
I'm sure I hit my head, but it really was a whale.
131
But yes, some food would be nice.
132
And then it took me down with it.
133
I mean, imagine!
134
All these years the whale floated with a forest on its back.
135
An entire forest.
136
And then a handful of men and fire forced it to go under the water!
137
I am not surprised that the whale was angry.
138
Hehehehehe!
139
I am telling you, my crew didn't miss me at all as they pulled the anchor.
140
Can't blame them.
141
Everybody was scared for their lives.
142
My hard luck, I say.
143
I was the only one who drifted off in the sea.
144
Hard luck?
145
What are you talking about?
146
Your story is brilliant!
147
Do you know we come to this part of the island only once a year to feed the king's horses?
148
Had you drifted here tomorrow, we would have been gone!
149
You would have never found a way to the inhabited part of the land without us!
150
Inhabited part? Of course!
151
Where the people live!
152
Let us take you there.
153
Our king will be happy to hear your story!
154
The soldiers took Sinbad to the inhabited part of the island.
155
It was a small kingdom with kind people.
156
Sinbad met the king and narrated his story.
157
Hmm, the sea is filled with surprises and mysteries indeed.
158
You are a brave man.
159
I will ask my men to take good care of you.
160
Oh, your highness, this is more than I wished for.
161
Just this morning I thought I will die on this island.
162
And here I am, standing in front of a generous king.
163
Please, let me be of some use to you.
164
So, you want to earn your living here.
165
I am impressed.
166
Didn't you say you were a merchant?
167
Well, then I have the perfect job for you.
168
Why don't you help us to keep records of all the goods in transit on the port?
169
Oh, that would be great.
170
Sinbad was honored to be of some help.
171
After all, they saved his life.
172
A few weeks passed, and Sinbad being Sinbad got bored of the job.
173
How do I ever go back to Baghdad?
174
There's no way the king would lend me a ship to go back.
175
And how do I even get back?
176
Like I know the way.
177
Anyway, for all I know, I might end up with a whale again.
178
I bet her life is more adventurous than mine right now.
179
Once, as Sinbad was keeping record of the cargo.
180
So, this belongs to Sinbad.
181
What?
182
Sinbad?
183
Hey, I know you.
184
Really?
185
I wouldn't think my face is that common.
186
This cargo belongs to a merchant we had on our ship, Sinbad the Sailor.
187
Sadly, we lost him back in the sea.
188
Good grace!
189
I am Sinbad the Sailor.
190
And I am the king of this land.
191
And that was a very bad joke.
192
I know the king of this place, and I am telling the truth.
193
I know about the whale.
194
It took me into the water, and I floated here.
195
I really am Sinbad.
196
Oh, I never told you about the whale.
197
You are telling me the truth, aren't you?
198
Oh, Sinbad, it is so nice to see you again.
199
Are you coming back with us?
200
Yes, of course.
201
I miss home.
202
I will have to meet with the king and explain him everything.
203
You are a lucky man to be able to go back home, Sinbad.
204
You have worked very hard here.
205
I will ask my men to hand over your payment to you.
206
And here, keep this.
207
Have a good journey.
208
You are the kindest, your highness.
209
And so, Sinbad took the ship and reached back home to his people, friends, and family.
210
Wow, Tech!
211
This ocean is definitely filled with a lot of mysteries.
212
A forest on a whale.
213
Who would have thought?
214
Uh-uh-uh!
215
That's not all, Tech.
216
Don't you know about the egg story and the snakes one?
217
What?
218
No tell me tell me!
219
All in good time my friend.
220
Now let's go and eat something.
221
I am hungry Let's go on the sleeping whale.
222
What?
223
No, I am not flying that much now Thank you.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
