1
All winter, George loved playing with Chef Biscetti's mobile.
2
But when winter was over...
3
It's spring now, Giorgio.
4
Time to take this down.
5
Huh?
6
Oh...
7
Springtime seemed like a bad excuse to get rid of something fun.
8
Hmm.
9
So why not make a new spring mobile?
10
What's more spring -like than fresh fruit?
11
George thought his mobile had everything a mobile needs.
12
Had he forgotten something?
13
Balance.
14
That's what you need.
15
Like this.
16
Oh, wow!
17
Great!
18
For our next demonstration of perfect balance, we need a volunteer from the audience.
19
Save it for the show, Claire.
20
She means we can fix that.
21
Ta -da!
22
George wondered who were these incredible fruit balancers?
23
Zucchinis!
24
Piscati!
25
Giorgio, these are my friends, the famous zucchinis.
26
We can bite to order food for our rehearsal.
27
Our show is tonight.
28
I'm gonna deliver it myself.
29
Thanks!
30
Ciao!
31
When he woke up that morning, George had never heard of them.
32
But now, all he wanted was to be an amazing balancing zucchini.
33
zucchini.
34
Being a cat, Gnocchi didn't see what was so tough about balancing.
35
But George needed to see how the zucchinis did it.
36
You want to deliver this to the zucchinis for me?
37
Maybe you'd like to see them again
38
Because you want to be a zucchini, eh?
39
Oh, I know, I know, I know Because, Giorgio, I too dream that I could be an amazing zucchini.
40
Follow your dream, Giorgio.
41
But hurry up before the pizza gets cold.
42
Steve, come on.
43
Work with me here.
44
Aw, give it up, Betsy.
45
You're too small to move a big brother like me.
46
Hi, George!
47
Hey, what do you got there?
48
Mmm, smells good.
49
Hey, what happened?
50
You moved closer, and now it's like we weigh the same.
51
Thanks, George.
52
Ah, food!
53
Sustenance!
54
That which gives us the strength to perform our amazing feats!
55
I think he wants to join us.
56
It's not that easy.
57
It takes lots of practice to do things like us.
58
Balance requires total control.
59
I never sneeze unless...
60
A cat!
61
Leo's allergic to cat hair and sneezing is very bad for his balance.
62
It would wreck our show.
63
Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow.
64
Gnocchi was determined to go back in there and watch what was going on.
65
Or maybe lie in the sun.
66
Leo made juggling look easy.
67
Hey!
68
Okay, George, watch how I do this.
69
These poles aid in maintaining balance.
70
See?
71
George, you're just supposed to watch.
72
That's not a balance pole!
73
Whoa!
74
Hold it closer to the heavy end!
75
George, do you want to do something just like we do that you don't have to practice for?
76
Hand out these flyers to everyone.
77
That's how I started, you know.
78
Oh!
79
Okay, bye -bye!
80
Cats!
81
George was proud to be a starter zucchini.
82
He gave out every flyer.
83
And that night, everyone he knew came to the show.
84
Everyone.
85
Gnocchi just wanted to watch.
86
She found a quiet place where she couldn't possibly bother anyone.
87
Woo!
88
Ladies and gentlemen, for our first amazing feat, we are going to need a volunteer.
89
Hmm.
90
What about you, Chef?
91
Oh, yes.
92
Yes, me.
93
Yes, yes.
94
Okay, just relax, Chef.
95
We'll do everything.
96
This is like a dream come true.
97
Gnocchi ran to Chef Biscetti whenever she saw him.
98
So why should now be any different? Is that a...
99
Oh, it's Gnocchi.
100
Leo, don't sneeze.
101
I...
102
I.. can't.. can't.. help...
103
Look, they made Gnocchi part of the act too.
104
George knew this was a problem.
105
Leo, just back up.
106
I can't back up!
107
Gnocchi couldn't decide who she'd rather go to. So...
108
Gnocchi couldn't decide who she'd rather go to.
109
She stopped and fought it over.
110
I can't last much longer.
111
Giorgio, walk out on the wire and take Nuki away, okay?
112
On the wire?
113
Isn't that the monkey who always knocks us down?
114
Oh, no!
115
Gnocchi, go with Chio Chio.
116
This was just like that mop, so George shifted his hands.
117
Now I know where George was all day, practicing to be in the show.
118
We made it!
119
After a sneeze break, the show went on and was a great success.
120
And when it was over...
121
Because of their great balance, we voted to make George and Chef Piscetti official zucchinis!
122
And you're welcome to practice with us anytime!
123
So that was all real?
124
Oh, I'm glad I didn't know.
125
I would have worried.
126
Nothing to worry about.
127
George is a natural.
128
But maybe he should stick to the high wire.
129
When winter began, everything outdoors looked different.
130
The days were short, the grass was brown, and the trees were bare.
131
George, don't forget your coat.
132
It may be sunny, but it's turning really cold out there.
133
George had toys for summer and toys for snow.
134
But there were no toys for just plain cold.
135
There weren't even birds to watch.
136
But even the dullest monkey day could be saved by a visit with bunnies.
137
The hutch was empty.
138
There must have been a big bunny breakout.
139
What's wrong, George?
140
Oh, are you looking for the bunnies?
141
Uh -huh.
142
Ah, don't worry.
143
I brought them in out of the cold.
144
Oh!
145
Phew!
146
I'm glad you're here.
147
We have to go to my grandmother's.
148
Can you do me a favor while I'm gone?
149
George knew Bill was going to ask him to take care of the bunnies.
150
It's something he'd dreamed about.
151
Ah!
152
George would pick only videos that bunnies liked.
153
and games they could win, and show them his best bunny picture books.
154
I'm taking the bunnies to stay at my grandmother's house for the rest of the winter.
155
Well, it's too cold out, and my folks won't let me keep them in the house.
156
Grandma has a warm place they can spend the entire winter.
157
So, could you do me a favor and put out some nuts and seeds for that jumpy squirrel every day?
158
I don't want him to go hungry if the ground gets too cold and hard and he can't find food.
159
See you later, George!
160
George remembered how it was not too long ago.
161
Why did all fun things have to be taken away just because of some old season?
162
He wasn't going to let winter ruin his.. well, ruin his winter.
163
This little monkey was going to prove that winter couldn't stop him from doing whatever he wanted.
164
Really cold water can change a monkey's plans just like that.
165
George, I'm back.
166
I bought some of that really good hot cocoa.
167
Uh, what are you doing?
168
Soaking your feet in warm water because you gotta chill?
169
Well, when it's too cold to play outside, it's hot.
170
Coco to the rescue!
171
The next day felt like the coldest day of the year.
172
Don't forget your scarf!
173
But George was not about to let it stop him from having fun the way he wanted to.
174
Time for fun!
175
I'm not sure what's going on.
176
George had won.
177
He was having fun like winter had never come.
178
The bubble froze.
179
It was pretty interesting.
180
But it wasn't what George wanted it to do.
181
He knew his dolphin couldn't freeze.
182
He could play with that any way he wanted.
183
Yesterday's summer fun had turned into today's humongous ice cube.
184
At that moment, Jumpy Squirrel remembered why he stayed in trees.
185
There!
186
That'll warm you up.
187
George was thinking two things.
188
Hello?
189
Boy, was this Coco good.
190
And that he was giving up.
191
How can a monkey have any fun when his stuff all freezes up?
192
Then he knew exactly how.
193
Oh, my God.
194
I'm afraid it's going to be even colder tomorrow.
195
Sorry.
196
You can still have warm dreams, though.
197
Good night.
198
Colder tomorrow?
199
George couldn't wait.
200
Don't forget your hat!
201
Ah!
202
He -he -he!
203
Ah!
204
Ah!
205
George's plan was working.
206
Ah!
207
Ah!
208
Ah!
209
Ah!
210
Ah!
211
Ah!
212
Ah!
213
Ah!
214
Ah!
215
Ah!
216
George had made an ice bowling set.
217
He was finally having fun.
218
Then, Chumpy did something unexpected.
219
At first, George thought squirrels must really hate bowling.
220
But Jumpy only wanted to get the frozen nuts.
221
I'm not sure what's going on.
222
I'm not sure what's going on.
223
I'm not sure what's going on.
224
I'm not sure what's going on.
225
I'm not sure what's going on.
226
I'm not sure what's going on.
227
I'm not sure what's going on.
228
George and Jumpy played nut hockey till the sun went down.
229
Then he set up for the next day.
230
In the morning, George bundled up.
231
You're not gonna need that hat and scarf.
232
It's warmer today.
233
It was a perfect day.
234
It turned out winter could be fun.
235
Except now, it wasn't cold enough to freeze anything solid.
236
All that work inventing fun stuff, and it was all for nothing.
237
Winter.
238
It was like a roller coaster of blah.
239
It started already?
240
We're supposed to get a ton of snow tonight.
241
Well, good thing I bought a new shovel.
242
Maybe inventing stuff wasn't all for nothing.
243
It helped him survive the dull of winter till the first snow.
244
George, it's snowing in the house.
245
Yeah, winter is a roller coaster.
246
And monkeys love roller coasters.
247
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.
