Creazione lezione...
1
Once there was an old man called Geppetto.
2
He was poor, and he lived alone in a small town near the sea.
3
Geppetto was a carpenter.
4
He made things out of wood.
5
And one day, Geppetto made himself a boy out of wood.
6
He made a wooden puppet.
7
I will call you Pinocchio, said Geppetto.
8
Put me down, Dad, said the puppet.
9
Oh, said Geppetto.
10
You can talk?
11
Of course I can, said Pinocchio.
12
Put me on the floor, Dad.
13
I feel full of life and I want to dance.
14
Are you a good boy, asked Geppetto.
15
Of course I am, said Pinocchio.
16
I am the best boy in the world.
17
Then he ran out of the door.
18
Pinocchio, my son, cried old Geppetto.
19
Come back!
20
The little puppet was having a good time, so he didn't listen.
21
He just ran.
22
But Geppetto loved his son, and so he ran after him.
23
Come back, Puppet Boy, shouted Geppetto.
24
He tried to grab the wooden puppet, but Pinocchio ran faster and faster.
25
Geppetto was old and could not catch him, and suddenly he could not see him either.
26
Puppet Boy, where are you?
27
Geppetto cried.
28
Pinocchio ran back to Geppetto's room, but no one was there, because Geppetto was still out searching for his puppet.
29
Pinocchio was all alone, and he was hungry, but there was no food.
30
Then he heard a voice.
31
Pinocchio, look up!
32
There was a green cricket on the wall, and it had very bright eyes.
33
Boys should be good to their parents, it said Good boys go to school and help people But you're not a good boy, are you?
34
You're just a bad little wooden puppet
35
Then Pinocchio did another bad thing He shouted at the cricket and chased it away So now he was alone again
36
Pinocchio ran out into the cold, dark street Then he knocked on someone's door Oi, be quiet, shouted a man.
37
What do you want?
38
Please, Mr. Man, I want some bread, said Pinocchio.
39
Oh, do you, said the man.
40
Wait there.
41
He went inside, and then he came back to the window and poured a bucket of water all over Pinocchio.
42
Here, have a drink, he said.
43
Now shut up and go away, or I'll throw the bucket at you too.
44
Then Pinocchio began to cry.
45
He was wet and cold and hungry, and he was all alone.
46
Pinocchio ran back to Geppetto's room and fell asleep by the fire.
47
Then his wooden feet got burnt.
48
When Geppetto came home, Pinocchio cried, Oh, Dad, Daddy, I'm sorry that I was a bad boy.
49
Make me some new feet, Dad, and give me something to eat.
50
Geppetto wanted to be angry, but then he saw Pinocchio's poor burnt feet.
51
Oh, my poor boy, he said.
52
What a funny little wooden puppet you are.
53
And he gave him all the food he had, three hard green pears.
54
Pinocchio was so hungry, he ate them all.
55
Geppetto made Pinocchio some new feet, and the little puppet gave him a big hug.
56
Listen, said Geppetto, I want you to go to school.
57
I want you to work hard and be a good boy.
58
But Dad, I need a writing book, said Pinocchio.
59
I can't go to school without a writing book.
60
Wait there, said Geppetto.
61
I'll get one.
62
When Geppetto returned, Pinocchio said, Where's your coat, Dad?
63
Geppetto didn't answer.
64
He just said, Look, here's your writing book.
65
Oh, Dad, said Pinocchio.
66
You sold your coat to buy my book, didn't you?
67
Oh, Dad, I'll be a good boy, Dad.
68
I'll go to school tomorrow.
69
But on his way to school, Pinocchio saw something.
70
Two pence, said a man.
71
It only costs two pence to see the famous puppets dance.
72
I'm going to school, said Pinocchio, and I don't have any money.
73
Hey, said the man.
74
Go to school tomorrow.
75
Listen, I'll give you two pence for that writing book.
76
Come on, come and see the famous dancing puppets.
77
It did sound interesting, so Pinocchio said, Okay, I will.
78
But the puppets stopped dancing when they saw Pinocchio.
79
Hey, puppet boy, they shouted.
80
Come and dance with us.
81
Then everyone in the audience turned and looked at him.
82
Then the nasty puppet master arrived.
83
Why aren't you puppets dancing?
84
He shouted.
85
And who's this?
86
He asked, looking at Pinocchio.
87
The puppets were so afraid that they could not move.
88
Okay, shouted the puppet master.
89
Time for bed.
90
But first I need some wood for the fire.
91
I want to cook my dinner.
92
He grabbed an old puppet.
93
Ah, here's some wood, he laughed.
94
This will do.
95
Then Pinocchio did something brave.
96
Let him go, he cried.
97
Put that old puppet down.
98
Pinocchio was brave.
99
Take me, he shouted bravely.
100
Put me on your fire and let this old puppet go.
101
What? said the puppet master.
102
What did you say?
103
You heard me, said Pinocchio.
104
The puppet master looked at Pinocchio.
105
He could not understand why Pinocchio was not afraid.
106
He looked at Pinocchio's eyes.
107
Pinocchio's eyes were not afraid.
108
Suddenly, the old puppet master felt tired.
109
He dropped the old wooden puppet onto the floor.
110
Okay, he said.
111
No more dancing today.
112
You can all go to bed.
113
In the morning, the puppet master spoke to Pinocchio.
114
Where do you come from?
115
He asked.
116
My father's a poor old carpenter, said Pinocchio.
117
He sold his coat to buy me a writing book, but I sold that book to see your puppet show.
118
I've been bad, but I want to be good.
119
You're an interesting thing, said the puppet master, and brave.
120
Here, take these coins.
121
Give them to your father.
122
Now go, quick, or I might keep you.
123
Oh, thanks, Mr. Man, said Pinocchio.
124
Then he grabbed the coins and ran.
125
Pinocchio started to walk home through the streets of the town.
126
On the way, he met the Fox Brothers.
127
Hello there, Pinocchio.
128
said Tommy Fox.
129
What are you doing?
130
I'm going home, said Pinocchio.
131
I've got five coins, so I'm going to buy a new coat for my dad and a writing book because I need to go to school.
132
Forget about the coat, said Danny Fox.
133
Winter will be over soon.
134
And you don't need school, said Tommy Fox You need to go into business Listen,
135
there's a magic field outside the town Plant those coins in the magic field
136
and they will grow into money trees Each one will have a thousand coins A thousand coins shining in the sunlight
137
Wow, said Pinocchio Okay.
138
But first, let's eat, said Tommy Fox.
139
I know a place outside town.
140
And he took them to a restaurant called the Red Lobster.
141
Waiter, shouted Danny Fox.
142
Twenty ducks with hot cream.
143
And I'll have twenty chickens in hot butter, said Tommy Fox.
144
Little ones, I'm not very hungry.
145
And you, the waiter asked Pinocchio.
146
Uh, said Pinocchio, do you have any pears?
147
Not today, said the waiter.
148
Then just some bread and cheese, please, said Pinocchio.
149
At the end of the meal, the Fox Brothers said, We're just going to wash our hands, and then we'll pay the bill.
150
But they never came back.
151
So Pinocchio had to pay for the meal himself.
152
Then he only had one coin left.
153
Outside it was dark.
154
Pinocchio walked for a few minutes.
155
And then he saw the cricket again.
156
Pinocchio, said the cricket.
157
It looked at him with bright eyes.
158
Coins do not grow into trees.
159
I haven't got any coins, lied Pinocchio.
160
And when he told this lie, his nose suddenly got longer.
161
Just then, two robbers grabbed Pinocchio.
162
Give us your money or die, they cried.
163
I haven't got any money, lied Pinocchio.
164
And when he told this lie, his nose grew longer again.
165
What's wrong with your nose, said the robbers.
166
Pinocchio put the coin into his mouth to hide it.
167
It's in his mouth, shouted the robbers.
168
They grabbed him and held him upside down.
169
Drop it, Big Nose, they shouted.
170
Let's have it.
171
But Pinocchio kept his mouth shut.
172
A kind lady came to help Pinocchio and took him to her home.
173
Hello, Pinocchio.
174
I'm a friend and I saw it all, she said.
175
Those bad robbers were trying to steal your money.
176
Money, said Pinocchio.
177
What money?
178
And his nose grew longer again.
179
They wanted your money, said the kind friend.
180
Where is it now?
181
Under the tree, lied Pinocchio.
182
Really, it was in his hand.
183
So many lies.
184
Again, his nose got longer.
185
Your nose has grown, smiled the friend.
186
You're lying.
187
I'm not, said Pinocchio, and his nose grew longer again.
188
I hid it under the tree.
189
And suddenly, poor Pinocchio's nose was as long as the bed.
190
Listen, said the kind friend.
191
Stop telling lies.
192
So then he showed her his coin, and at once his nose was perfectly all right again.
193
Now don't tell any more lies, said the friend kindly.
194
Be good and go and find your father.
195
So Pinocchio thanked her and hurried off along the road, back to town.
196
But then, oh no, he met the Fox Brothers again!
197
Ah, said Tommy Fox, here you are, you bad boy.
198
Where have you been?
199
And where is the money?
200
Pinocchio didn't want to tell a lie, so he said, Here, and showed them the coin.
201
Now, said Danny Fox, let's plant it in the magic field.
202
No, said Pinocchio, I don't want to.
203
Look, said Tommy Fox Here we are already Here's the place,
204
the magic field Pinocchio saw an ordinary field Come on,
205
said Tommy Fox And pulled Pinocchio over the wall Dig a hole, said Tommy Fox Plant your coin,
206
said Danny Fox Just think, soon you'll be rich But first, said Tommy Fox, you need to water that coin.
207
So go and fetch some water, okay?
208
Pinocchio fetched some water and came back.
209
He waited and waited, but nothing happened.
210
Then he saw the cricket again.
211
The cricket looked at him with very bright eyes and said, Pinocchio, you've been robbed.
212
Then Pinocchio looked in the hole and saw that it was empty.
213
It was dark, and it was the middle of the night.
214
Pinocchio ran up the country road.
215
He wanted to find the kind friend again.
216
He wanted to see her, and he wanted to speak to her.
217
But Pinocchio couldn't find the kind friend's cottage.
218
He could only find a big stone.
219
and Pinocchio thought that she might be dead.
220
So he started to cry.
221
Suddenly, a large white bird appeared.
222
Come with me, Pinocchio, it said.
223
I will carry you to the sea.
224
Your father's looking for you.
225
He's in a little boat.
226
So Pinocchio got on the bird's back and they flew away.
227
They came to the sea.
228
And the wind was strong.
229
Pinocchio saw Geppetto in a little boat.
230
Father, he cried.
231
Dad!
232
His father looked up and saw him and waved.
233
And then, suddenly, he fell into the water.
234
Dad, shouted Pinocchio.
235
I will help you!
236
And bravely, he jumped from the bird's back into the wild sea.
237
The waves were big, and Pinocchio went up and down, and up and down all day.
238
But he couldn't see or find his father.
239
And in the evening, the water carried Pinocchio to an island.
240
Pinocchio lay on the sand for some hours.
241
He was tired, lonely, and hungry. But he was alive.
242
And after a while, he got up.
243
He saw people working.
244
Two men were making baskets.
245
Hello, Mr. Men, said Pinocchio.
246
Can you give me some bread?
247
You have to work for your food here, they said.
248
Another man was mending a net.
249
Do you know how to mend a net, he said.
250
Eh, said Pinocchio.
251
Eh.
252
Then an old woman said, Help me carry this bucket, and I'll cook something for you.
253
Pinocchio didn't want to carry the bucket of water, but he was very hungry.
254
The bucket of water was very heavy, but Pinocchio carried it all the way to the old woman's house.
255
Thank you for your hard work, she said.
256
and she cooked something nice for him.
257
Then Pinocchio saw her blue hair.
258
It's you, he cried, the kind friend.
259
Yes, she said, but you've changed.
260
Yes, I have grown older.
261
Will I grow older? asked Pinocchio.
262
No, she said.
263
Puppets can't grow.
264
They are made of wood.
265
Only real boys can grow.
266
Then Pinocchio started to cry.
267
I want to be a real boy.
268
I don't want to be a wooden puppet.
269
Well, if you go to school and work very hard,
270
said the kind friend, then one day you will become a real boy.
271
So the very next day, Pinocchio went to school.
272
Oh, shouted the school bullies.
273
A puppet!
274
Give us your jacket, puppet, said a boy.
275
You can't learn anything, wooden head.
276
But Pinocchio didn't listen to them.
277
He worked hard.
278
He was good.
279
He listened to the teacher.
280
He didn't talk in class, and he made friends with a boy called Candlewick.
281
The kind friend was pleased with him.
282
Tomorrow evening, you'll be a real boy, she said.
283
But the very next day, Candlewick said, Hey, Pinocchio, I'm not going to school today.
284
I'm going to Lazy Land.
285
Oh, said Pinocchio.
286
What's that?
287
It's a fun place, said Candlewick.
288
Nobody does any work.
289
There are no teachers.
290
We just play and eat sweets all day.
291
Then a very strange bus arrived.
292
It was pulled by eight gray donkeys.
293
Come on, said Candlewick.
294
You are my friend, aren't you?
295
The bus did look interesting, so Pinocchio said, Okay.
296
You'll be sorry, said one of the donkeys.
297
I was a boy like you once.
298
Lazy Land was a noisy place.
299
There were children everywhere, playing and shouting and eating sweets.
300
It was fun at first, but soon Pinocchio felt tired and he wanted to go home.
301
Oh, come on, said Candlewick.
302
Have some more sweets.
303
The next day, Pinocchio felt strange.
304
Ah! he cried.
305
Candlewick, help!
306
My ears!
307
Oh no!
308
Your ears are the same!
309
We've got the donkey sickness, said Candlewick.
310
We're changing into donkeys!
311
It was true.
312
Soon they had tails and fur.
313
Then the bus driver took them to a donkey market and sold them.
314
An angry man bought Pinocchio, but after a few weeks, he didn't want him anymore.
315
I'm gonna throw this donkey into the sea and get a new one, he said.
316
Pinocchio fell into the deep blue water, and slowly he changed back into a puppet.
317
Then a huge whale opened its mouth, and suddenly Pinocchio found himself inside.
318
There he could breathe, and there, inside the whale he saw, his father.
319
Dad! he cried.
320
I saw you fall, and I tried to help.
321
Nothing to eat but fish, said the old man.
322
How can we get out of here?
323
The way we came in, said Pinocchio.
324
Hold my hand, Dad, and let's go.
325
When the whale opened its mouth, they swam out.
326
Then a dolphin came and carried them both back to land.
327
Now Geppetto was too old and tired to work, so Pinocchio took him home.
328
They went back to Geppetto's cold room, and Pinocchio went back to school.
329
You are a good boy, Pinocchio, Geppetto said.
330
But I'm not a boy, Dad, said Pinocchio.
331
I'm just a wooden puppet. So Pinocchio worked hard.
332
Every day he went to school and listened to his teacher.
333
And at night, he helped Geppetto around the house.
334
Together they cooked their evening meal and talked about Pinocchio's day at school.
335
The kind friend was getting old, too, so Pinocchio took food to her and helped her carry buckets of water.
336
Some time later, Pinocchio had a dream.
337
The kind friend spoke to him.
338
Pinocchio, she said, you are brave, and now you have also learned to be kind.
339
You work hard and you are good.
340
Because of this, you have changed.
341
You have grown and your heart has become a real heart.
342
One day you will be a real man.
343
Pinocchio, you are not a puppet anymore.
344
You have become real.
345
You are a real boy.
346
And when Pinocchio woke up, he saw that it was true.

Obiettivi di parlato per questo clip
Questo video di "Pinocchio" è perfetto per lavorare sulla fluency e sulla capacità di seguire un dialogo spontaneo. I bambini e gli adulti possono esercitarsi a riprodurre la velocità e l'intonazione delle frasi, soprattutto quelle con emozione (come il pianto di Pinocchio o il grido di Geppetto). È un ottimo modo per approfondire il shadow speak, una tecnica dove si ripete immediatamente dopo il parlante, migliorando la pronuncia e la fluidità. Ideal per chi vuole superare la paura di parlare in inglese e acquisire confidenza!
Banca di frasi riutilizzabili
- "I feel full of life" – "Mi sento pieno di vita" (utile per esprimere entusiasmo)
- "Come back!" – "Torna indietro!" (frase base per richiamare qualcuno)
- "I'm sorry that I was a bad boy" – "Mi dispiace di essere stato un bravo ragazzo" (per chiedere scusa)
- "Wait there" – "Aspetta lì" (comando semplice e diretto)
- "He went inside" – "Entrò dentro" (descrizione di azioni quotidiane)
Queste frasi sono semplici ma potenti: le puoi usare in conversazioni reali o per esercitarti nel shadowspeak, ripetendole ad alta voce mentre guardi il video.
Correggi i tuoi punti deboli
Il dialogo di Pinocchio aiuta a migliorare la pronuncia delle consonanti come "p" in "Pinocchio" o "b" in "bad boy", e la ritmica delle frasi brevi. Molte espressioni hanno una intonazione ascendente (come le domande: "You can talk?") o discendente (i comandi: "Put me down!"). Con la tecnica del shadow speech, puoi esercitarti a seguire queste variazioni: metti il video in pausa, ascolta una frase, poi ripettala immediatamente, cercando di imitare il tono e la velocità. Ricorda: l'obiettivo non è essere perfetto, ma essere capito e sentirsi a proprio agio. Imparare l'inglese con i video è divertente e efficace – e questo "Pinocchio" è la prova!
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | I've been · has grown · you've been robbed |
| Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa | you've been robbed · are made · was pulled |
| Past continuous was/were + -ing — un’azione in corso in un momento del passato | was having · were trying · were making |
| Possibilità con “might / may” might/may + verbo — qualcosa di possibile ma non certo | might keep · might be |
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
