And now we'll finish with something you may have heard of, that when I was a boy, I had a favourite treat.
2
I had a favourite, favourite treat, and it was when my mum made...
3
Chocolate cake.
4
Spaghetti bolognese, that's...
5
I had a favourite treat and it was when my mum made...
6
Spaghetti bolognese.
7
No, it was chocolate cake, actually, that's all right, yeah.
8
I was just fooling you, that's good.
9
So we'll do it properly, we'll do chocolate cake.
10
I had a favourite treat and it was when my mum made...
11
Chocolate cake.
12
I loved chocolate cake.
13
My mum, she says to me, listen, Michael, if there's any chocolate cake left over at the end of the day,
14
you can take some to school tomorrow to have at playtime or lunchtime.
15
And I used to go to school with a little box like that.
16
It was right there, and I knew the chocolate cake was inside, so I'm off to school and I go, and I know it's in there, yeah!
17
And I think about it, all shiny and sticky.
18
I know it's in there!
19
Then I'd get to school and it's playtime and I'd put it down, open it up and...
20
Yeah!
21
And take it out and it's all...
22
You just peel it off like that.
23
It's all sticky.
24
Oh, a bit dribbling.
25
Ha, ha, ha, ha!
26
Whoa!
27
Ah!
28
Oh, hang on, somebody's name.
29
No, never mind.
30
Ah!
31
Oh, no, somebody's name.
32
Yeah.
33
Ah!
34
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.
35
Mmmmm!
36
At one time, there was some chocolate cake left over in the middle of the night, and I was fast asleep, fast asleep, fast asleep in bed.
37
And then suddenly, I woke up and I thought, Chocolate cake!
38
Maybe I could get up and go downstairs and have a little look at it.
39
I'm not going to eat any.
40
No, I'm just going to go downstairs, have a little look.
41
So I get out of bed really quiet.
42
Shh!
43
Doesn't make any noise.
44
There's my brother.
45
He's asleep on the other side of the bedroom.
46
Don't wake him up.
47
He's bound to tell on me.
48
Really quiet out the room.
49
Shh.
50
Out the room, down the passage.
51
Careful not to tread on the creaky floorboard outside my mum and dad's room because if they hear that, I am in big...
52
Big trouble!
53
Exactly, so really carefully, really carefully, and then not tread on it.
54
Grrr! Did they hear?
55
No, it's okay.
56
Grrr!
57
It's okay.
58
On down the passage, into the kitchen, over to the cupboard and...
59
Yeah!
60
No, shhh!
61
I mustn't wake them up, they're upstairs.
62
I'm just going to take it out and have a little look at it.
63
I'm not going to eat any.
64
And now I can see it's all shiny and I can see some little...
65
Oh, it's dribbly again.
66
I can see some little crumbs on the plate.
67
I think I could pick up some of those crumbs and no one would know anything at all about it.
68
Yeah, here we go.
69
Well, yeah, it's really nice.
70
I love that.
71
Yeah, it's a hot one.
72
Mmmmm!
73
And then I notice some little crumbly bits on the side
74
of the cake all mixed up with a bit of this sticky icing, So I think if I take a knife, I could just tidy it up a little bit.
75
No one would know anything at all about it.
76
No, here we go.
77
And then I scoop it all together.
78
Yeah! And I've...
79
Oh, yeah.
80
Put the chart in there.
81
Yeah, belly, belly, belly.
82
What's that?
83
Oh, mm-mm.
84
Mm-mm.
85
Mm-mm.
86
Mm-mm.
87
Mm-mm.
88
And then I think if I've tidied it up over here, maybe I could just even it up a bit over here.
89
So I take the knife through the crispy icing on the top, through the squashy icing in the middle, here we go, a whole slice.
90
And I've got a whole slice this time and it's gonna go in there.
91
I love it.
92
And now I can't stop myself.
93
I take the knife and I go...
94
Oh, no. It's all gone.
95
Oh, no, they're bound to notice now.
96
A whole chocolate cake doesn't just disappear.
97
What am I going to do now?
98
I don't know how to make a cake.
99
I know!
100
I'll wash up the plate and the knife, I'll put them away and they won't know anything at all about it.
101
Good thinking.
102
Take the plate and the knife.
103
Pshh.. onto the drainer.
104
And the knife.
105
Careful, health and safety.
106
And then take the cloth, here we go, with the plate.
107
Shoo-shoo-shoo.
108
Shoo-shoo.
109
Into the cupboard.
110
Pfft!
111
Pfft!
112
And the knife, here we go.
113
Careful health and safety in the drawer.
114
And then upstairs, here we go, upstairs, along the passage.
115
I know where the creaky floorboard is now, so all I've got to do is tread over it, because if I tread on it, and Mum and Dad hear, I am...
116
Dead.
117
Yeah, that's it.
118
Really careful, don't tread on it.
119
Do they hear?
120
No, it's OK.
121
Do they hear?
122
No. And then down the passage, into the bedroom, into bed, under the covers.
123
Where have I heard that before?
124
Under the covers, nice warm feeling, chocolate cake in my belly, goody, goody, goody, and I go to sleep.
125
Then when I get up in the morning, I go downstairs and I'm having my breakfast.
126
You have your breakfast.
127
Here we go.
128
Have your breakfast.
129
And my mum, she's really busy over here.
130
She's really busy over there.
131
And then she says, Michael, don't forget your book folder.
132
And she hands me my book folder.
133
And then I carry on having my breakfast and she's really busy over here, she's really busy over there, and then she says, oh yes, and there's something else nice.
134
There's some chocolate cake left over from yesterday for you to take to school today.
135
And I went, um, no, it's okay.
136
And she says, what's the matter?
137
You usually jump at the idea of having chocolate cake.
138
And I went, no, it's okay, it's all right.
139
And she's looking at me really closely just here.
140
And she points at it and she says, what's that?
141
And I said, what's what?
142
She said, what's that?
143
I said, what's what? Where?
144
What do you mean? what, what do you mean?
145
She said, it's not chocolate cake is it?
146
And I went, hmm.
147
And then she went over to the cupboard.
148
It's gone.
149
The chocolate cake's gone.
150
You haven't eaten the whole of the rest of the chocolate cake, have you? Have you?
151
And I said, I don't know.
152
She said, you don't know.
153
You don't know.
154
You must know.
155
Listen, that's the last time you ever have chocolate cake to take to school.
156
Do you hear me?
157
And I said, yeah.
158
I was very good at saying, yeah.
159
She said, off you go to school.
160
No, before you go to school, go to the bathroom and wash your dirty, sticky face.
161
I went in stores.
162
I went to the bathroom.
163
I looked in the mirror and I saw it just there.
164
the chocolate smudge, the chocolate blob, and I looked at it and I thought, maybe next time we have chocolate cake, she'll forget about it.
165
Do you think she will?
166
How many of you here have got a mum who'll forget about it?
167
And how many of you here have got a mum who'll remember and remember and remember our main?
168
I can tell you something.
169
My mum was brilliant at forgetting.
170
That's why I'm a spoiled brat.
171
Thank you.
172
Hooray!
173
Thank you.

Por que praticar a fala com este vídeo?

Este vídeo apresenta a performance de Michael Rosen, onde ele recita seu poema "Chocolate Cake". Assistir e praticar com vídeos como este oferece uma excelente oportunidade para aprender inglês de forma divertida e envolvente. Através da narrativa cativante de Rosen, você pode mergulhar em um contexto dinâmico que não apenas melhora sua compreensão auditiva, mas também ajuda na formação de estruturas de fala natural. O ato de shadow speak, ou seja, imitar o que ouve, pode substancialmente aumentar sua fluência e confiança ao falar. Além disso, você tem a chance de praticar a entonação e a expressividade, elementos fundamentais na comunicação em inglês.

Gramática e expressões em contexto

Durante a performance, há várias estruturas gramaticais e expressões que merecem destaque:

  • "I had a favourite treat": Essa construção simples é uma ótima maneira de introduzir gostos pessoais. Tente replicar essa estrutura ao falar sobre suas próprias preferências.
  • "If there's any chocolate cake left over": Aqui, vemos o uso condicional que é comum em cenários hipotéticos. Praticar sentenças condicionais pode enriquecer seu vocabulário e sua comunicação.
  • "I'm not going to eat any": A forma negativa e o futuro com “going to” são essenciais para expressar intenções. Use essa construção para descrever suas próprias decisões.

Essas expressões não só são relevantes no contexto, mas também são úteis para conversas gerais e podem ser facilmente incorporadas ao seu vocabulário diário.

Armadilhas comuns de pronúncia

A pronúncia pode ser um desafio, especialmente para palavras que podem não ser comuns no dia a dia. Algumas palavras e frasas que podem causar confusão incluem:

  • "Chocolate cake": A pronúncia pode ser rápida e fluida, prestando atenção ao som do "o" e ao "late", que pode ser facilmente confundido com "light".
  • "Left over": A junção dessas palavras pode soar diferente, sendo importante praticar a fluidez. Tente imitar o jeito que é dito no vídeo.
  • "Playtime": Preste atenção ao uso do “a” que pode ser pronunciado de várias maneiras. Envolva-se em atividades na frente de YouTube, onde você pode escutar e repetir para melhorar a pronúncia em inglês.

Praticar essas armadilhas de pronúncia através do shadow speak pode ajudar a suavizar sua articulação e tornar sua fala mais natural. Experimente repetir várias vezes para internalizar a sonoridade correcta.

Com a prática regular utilizando este vídeo, além de outros recursos, você pode fazer grandes avanços no seu aprendizado de inglês. Aproveite cada momento e divirta-se ao aprender inglês com YouTube!

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
