I'm Bryan Cranston, and today I'm going to read Professor Nincompoop, written by Jimmy V and illustrated by Ben Askew.
3
"Have I told you about my most impressively impressive discovery ever?" "No, Professor," Nick replied.
4
"But we watch your videos," Tess said.
5
"Of course you do!
6
I'm amazingly amazing !" "My discovery started here in one of the deepest
7
and darkest parts of the world !" "But pardon me, Professor, you know that's your closet, right?" Right?
8
Precisely, Tess.
9
I never travel without my trusty suitcase,
10
especially when I'm searching for an animal so mysteriously mysterious that only other animals know where it lives.
11
And with your help, I will reveal it and get my picture in the Professor's Hall of Fame.
12
My lifelong dream.
13
And we'll be the first to see it, right?
14
Right -o -neek?
15
And we'll get to take a selfie with it?
16
Indeed -es.
17
Wait, if only other animals know where to find this creature, how did you find it, Professor?
18
My dear boy, I speak 743 different animal languages.
19
And I'm even half fluent in flea.
20
I chatted with some cheetahs in Chan.
21
Meow meow, me me mo.
22
Bantered with baboons in Borneo.
23
Oh, ah, oh, oh, oh.
24
And palavered with porcupines in Peru.
25
Pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop.
26
Did they really tell you where to go, Professor?
27
exactly where to go, but before I could capture the critter, beastly beasts surrounded me.
28
Thanks!
29
I thought I was doomed.
30
Um, it doesn't look very scary to me, Professor.
31
Silly Nick, they were viciously vicious.
32
I only escaped thanks to my cat -like reflexes and my lucky suitcase.
33
Professor, Tess asked.
34
I walk right up to the critter.
35
It was massively massive!
36
Professor, it...
37
Doesn't look very big.
38
Tess, it was huge!
39
For its size.
40
Were you scared, Professor?
41
Of course not, my boy.
42
You can't scare an income poop.
43
I channeled my training in, I don't know, Taekwondo.
44
And after the scuffle, I lugged the beast home.
45
In a bicycle basket, Tess said?
46
We know you're making this up, Nick added.
47
Your conclusions are cabbywampus.
48
This story is indeed true and this species is indeed new.
49
Here are the facts.
50
Fact 1: Face like a panda.
51
Fact 2: Tail like a poodle.
52
Fact 3: Smells like chicken poop in a chicken coop.
53
Tess quirked an eyebrow.
54
"You can't be serious." Are you even a real professor?
55
Deep press.
56
Count to ten.
57
Bing, bing.
58
Yoga pose.
59
Professor Nincompoop is a scholar.
60
Not a liar.
61
I have incredibly credible degrees.
62
And I'm even on the Internet.
63
Everyone's on the Internet, Professor.
64
Oh!
65
This is scientific fact.
66
I'll prove it.
67
Behold!
68
The Panda Poodle Cuckadoodle!
69
We know that's not a panda or a poodle, and it doesn't smell like chicken poop or chicken coop.
70
Nick's brows knitted together.
71
Yes.
72
But, they do like to cuddle and take selfies, Tess giggled.
73
Smile, Professor.
74
Snap!
75
Is that for the famously famous Professor's Hall of Fame?
76
No, Professor, it's for the awesomely awesome Pets' Wall of Fame.
77
Indubitably, my lifelong dream.
78
Nincompoop is never wrong.
79
But, sometimes I must admit, I'm not quite right.
80
Come on, Lewis!
81
Let's go, Clark!
82
We'll find that elusively elusive critter and get into that Professor's Hall of Fame someday.
83
But at least we had some fun.
84
Made new friends and got our picture on the Pets' Hall of Fame.
85
Oh, Daddy loves his fuzzy little babies.
86
Thank you.
87
Professor Nincompoop.
88
That was fun to read.
89
And it reminded me of talking to friends when I was growing up about what was real and what was make -believe.
90
And it's good to have both, but it's also good to know when someone is making something up or when it's an actual true story.
91
So this book reminded me of that.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
