Rowling Narrated by Ty Farnsworth Chapter 1 The Boy Who Lived
3
Mr. and Mrs. Dursley of Number 4 Privet Drive were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much.
4
They were the last people you'd expect to be involved in anything strange and mysterious, because they just didn't hold with such nonsense.
5
Mr. Dursley was the director of a firm called Grunnings, which made drills.
6
He was a big beefy man with hardly any neck, although he did have a very large mustache.
7
Mrs. Dursley was thin and blonde, and had nearly twice the usual amount of neck, which came in very useful as she spent so much of her time craning over garden fences, spying on the neighbors.
8
The Dursleys had a small son called Dudley, and in their opinion there was no finer boy anywhere.
9
The Dursleys had everything they wanted, but they also had a secret, and their greatest fear was that somebody would discover it.
10
They didn't think they could bear it if anyone found out about the Potters.
11
Mrs. Potter was Mrs. Dursley's sister, but they hadn't met for several years.
12
In fact, Mrs. Dursley pretended she didn't have a sister, because her sister and her good -for -nothing husband were as un -Dursleyish as it was possible to be.
13
The Dursleys shuddered to think what the neighbours would say if the Potters arrived in the street.
14
The Dursleys knew that the Potters had a small son, too, but they had never even seen him.
15
This boy was another good reason for keeping the Potters away.
16
They didn't want Dudley mixing with a child like that.
17
When Mr. and Mrs. Dursley woke up on the dull grey Tuesday our story starts, there was nothing about the cloudy sky outside to suggest
18
that strange and mysterious things would soon be happening all over the country.
19
Mr. Dursley hummed as he picked out his most boring tie for work, and Mrs. Dursley gossiped away happily as she wrestled a screaming Dudley into his high chair.
20
None of them noticed a large tawny owl flutter past the window.
21
At half past eight, Mr. Dursley picked up his briefcase, pecked Mrs. Dursley on the cheek, and tried to kiss Dudley goodbye, but missed, because Dudley was now having a tantrum and throwing his cereal at the walls.
22
"'It'll take!' chortled Mr. Dursley as he left the house.
23
He got into his car and backed out of Number Four's Drive.
24
It was on the corner of the street that he noticed the first sign of something peculiar—a cat reading a map.
25
For a second Mr. Dursley didn't realize what he had seen, then he jerked his head around to look again.
26
There was a tabby cat standing on the corner of Privet Drive, but there wasn't a map in sight.
27
What could he have been thinking of?
28
It must have a trick of the light.
29
Mr. Dursley blinked and stared at the cat.
30
It stared back.
31
As Mr. Dursley drove around the corner and up the road, he watched the cat in his mirror.
32
It was now reading the sign that said Privet Drive.
33
No, looking at the sign.
34
Cats couldn't read maps or signs.
35
Mr. Dursley gave himself a little shake and put the cat out of his mind.
36
As he drove toward town, he thought of nothing except a large order of drills he was hoping to get that day.
37
But on the edge of town, drills were driven out of his mind by something else.
38
As he sat in the usual morning traffic jam, he couldn't help noticing that there seemed to be a lot of strangely dressed people about.
39
People in cloaks.
40
Mr. Dursley couldn't bear people who dressed in funny clothes.
41
The gid -ups you saw on young people!
42
He supposed this was some stupid new fashion.
43
He drummed his fingers on the steering wheel and his eyes fell on a huddle of those weirdos standing quite close by.
44
They were whispering excitedly together.
45
Mr. Dursley was enraged to see that a couple of them weren't young at all.
46
Why, that man had to be older than he was, and wearing an emerald green cloak.
47
The nerve of him!
48
But then it struck Mr. Dursley that this was probably some silly stunt.
49
These people were obviously collecting for something.
50
Yes, that would be it.
51
The traffic moved on.
52
And a few minutes later, Mr. Dursley arrived in the Grunnings car park, his mind back on drills.
53
Mr. Dursley always sat with his back to the window in his office on the ninth floor.
54
If he hadn't, he might have found it harder to concentrate on drills that morning.
55
He didn't see the owl swooping past in broad daylight, though people down in the street did.
56
They pointed and gazed open mouth as owl after owl sped overhead.
57
Most of them had never seen an owl even at night time.
58
Mr. Darsley, however, had a perfectly normal owl -free morning.
59
He yelled at five different people.
60
He made several important telephone calls and shouted a bit more.
61
He was in a very good mood until lunchtime
62
when he thought he'd stretch his legs and walk across the road to buy himself a bun from the baker's opposite.
63
He'd forgotten all about the people in cloaks until he passed a group of them next to the bakers.
64
He eyed them angrily as he passed.
65
He didn't know why, but they made him uneasy.
66
This lot were whispering excitedly too, and he couldn't see a single collecting tin.
67
It was on his way back past them, clutching a large doughnut in a bag, that he caught a few words of what they were saying.
68
The parters, that's right, that's what I heard!
69
Yes, the son Harry!
70
Mr. Dazley stopped dead.
71
Fear flooded him.
72
He looked back at the Whisperers as if he wanted to say something to them, but he thought better of it.
73
He dashed back across the road, hurried up to his office, snapped at his secretary not to disturb him, seized his telephone, and had almost finished dialing his home number when he changed his mind.
74
He put the receiver back down and stroked his mustache, thinking, no, he was being stupid.
75
Potter wasn't such an unusual name.
76
He was sure there were lots of people called Potter who had a son called Harry.
77
Come to think of it, he wasn't even sure his nephew was called Harry.
78
He'd never even seen the boy.
79
It might have been Harvey or Harold.
80
There was no point in worrying Mrs. Dursley.
81
She always got so upset at any mention of a sister.
82
He didn't blame her.
83
If he'd had a sister like that.
84
But all the same, there's people in cloaks.
85
He found it a lot harder to concentrate on drills that afternoon, and when he left the building at five o 'clock, he was still so worried that he walked straight into someone just outside the door.
86
Sorry, he grunted, as the tiny old man stumbled and almost fell.
87
It was a few seconds before Mr. Dursley realized that the man was wearing a violet cloak.
88
He didn't seem at all upset at being almost knocked to the ground.
89
On the contrary, his face split into a wide smile, and he said in a squeaky voice that made passers -by stare, Don't be sorry, my dear sir, for nothing could upset me today.
90
Rejoice, for you know who is gone at last.
91
Even muggles like yourself should be celebrating this happy, happy day.
92
And the old man hugged Mr. Dursley around the middle and walked off.
93
Mr. Dursley stood rooted to the spot.
94
He'd been hugged by a complete stranger.
95
He also thought he'd been called a muggle, whatever that was.
96
He was rattled.
97
He hurried to his car and set off home, hoping he was imagining things, which he had never hoped before because he didn't approve of imagination.
98
As he pulled into the driveway of number four, the first thing he saw, and it didn't improve his mood, was the tabby cat he'd spotted that morning.
99
It was now sitting on his garden wall.
100
He was sure it was the same one.
101
It had the same markings around its eyes.
102
"'Chew!' said Mr. Dazley loudly.
103
The cat didn't move.
104
It just gave him a stand look.
105
Was this normal cat behavior?
106
Mr. Dazley wondered.
107
trying to pull himself together he let himself into the house
108
he was still determined not to mention anything to his wife
109
mrs darsley had had a nice normal day she told him
110
over dinner all about mrs next door's problems with her daughter and how dudley had learned a new word shant
111
mr darsley tried to act normally
112
when dudley had been put to bed he went into the
113
living room in time to catch the last report on the evening news
114
and finally bird watchers everywhere have reported that the nation's owls have been behaving very unusually today.
115
Although owls normally hunt at night and are hardly ever seen in daylight, there have been hundreds of sightings of these birds flying in every direction since sunrise.
116
Experts are unable to explain why the owls have suddenly changed their sleeping pattern.
117
The newsreader allowed himself a grin.
118
Most mysterious.
119
And now over to Jim McGuffin with the weather.
120
Going to be any more showers of owls tonight, Jim?
121
Well, Ted, said the weatherman.
122
I don't know about that, but it's not only the owls that have been acting oddly today.
123
Viewers as far apart as Kent, Yorkshire and Dundee have been phoning in to tell me that instead of the rain I promised yesterday, they've had a downpour of shooting stars.
124
Perhaps people have been celebrating bonfire night early.
125
It's not until next week, folks.
126
But I can promise a wet night tonight.
127
Mr. Dursley sat frozen in his armchair, shooting stars all over Britain, owls flying by daylight, mysterious people in cloaks all over the place,
128
and a whisper, A whisper about the potters.
129
Mrs. Dursley came into the living room carrying two cups of tea.
130
It was no good.
131
He'd have to say something to her.
132
He clared his throat nervously.
133
Uh, Petunia, dear, you haven't heard from your sister lately, have you?
134
As he had expected, Mrs. Dursley looked shocked and angry.
135
After all, they normally pretended she didn't have a sister.
136
No, she said sharply.
137
Why?
138
Funny stuff on the news, Mr. Dursley mumbled.
139
Owls are shooting stars, and there are a lot of funny -looking people in town today. So?
140
Snapped Mrs. Dursley.
141
Well, I just thought maybe it was something to do with, you know, her lot.
142
Mrs. Dursley sipped a tea through past lips.
143
Mr. Dursley wondered whether he dared tell her he'd heard the name Porter.
144
He decided he didn't care.
145
Instead, he said, as casually as he could, "'Their son, he'd be about Dudley's age now, wouldn't he?' "'I suppose so,' said Mrs. Darsley stiffly.
146
"'What's his name again?
147
Howard, isn't it?' "'Harry.
148
Nasty common name, if you ask me.' "'Oh, yes,' said Mr. Darsley, his heart sinking horribly.
149
"'Yes, I quite agree.' He didn't say another word on the subject until they went upstairs.
150
While Mrs. Darsley was in the bathroom, Mr. Darsley crept to the bedroom window and pared down into the front garden.
151
The cat was still there.
152
It was staring down Privet Drive as though it was waiting for something.
153
Was he imagining things?
154
Could all this have anything to do with the Potters?
155
If it did, if it got out that they were related to a pair of.. well, he didn't think he could bear it.
156
The Dursleys got into bed.
157
Mrs. Dursley fell asleep quickly, but Mr. Dursley lay awake, turning it all over in his mind.
158
His last comforting thought before he fell asleep was that even if the Potters were involved, there was no reason for them to come near him and Mrs. Dursley.
159
The Potters knew very well what he and Petunia thought about them, and their kind.
160
He didn't see how he and Petunia could get mixed up in anything that might be going on.
161
He yawned and turned over.
162
It surely couldn't affect them.
163
How very wrong he was.
164
Mr. Dursley might have been drifting into an uneasy sleep.
165
But the cat on the wall outside was showing no sign of sleepiness.
166
It was sitting as still as a statue, its eyes fixed unblinkingly on the far corner of Privet Drive.
167
It didn't so much as quiver when a car door slammed shut in the next street, nor when two owls swooped overhead.
168
In fact, it was nearly midnight before the cat moved at all.
169
A man appeared on the corner the cat had been watching, appeared so suddenly and silently you'd have thought he'd just popped out of the ground.
170
The cat's tail twitched and its eyes narrowed.
171
Nothing like this man had ever been seen in Privet Drive.
172
He was tall.
173
thin and very old, judging by the silver of his hair and beard, which were both long enough to tuck into his belt.
174
He was wearing long robes, a purple cloak which swept the ground, and high -heeled buckled boots.
175
His blue eyes were light, bright, and sparkling behind half -moon spectacles, and his nose was very long and crooked, as though it had been broken at least twice.
176
This man's name was Albus Dumbledore.
177
Albus Dumbledore didn't seem to realize
178
that he had just arrived in a street where everything from his name to his boots was unwelcome.
179
He was busy rummaging in his cloak, looking for something.
180
But he did seem to realize that he was being watched, because he looked up suddenly at the cat, which was still staring at him from the other end of the street.
181
For some reason, the sight of the cat seemed to amuse him.
182
He chuckled and muttered, I should have known!
183
He had found what he was looking for in his inside pocket.
184
It seemed to be a silver cigarette lighter.
185
He flicked it open, held it up in the air, and clicked it.
186
The nearest street lamp went out with a little pop.
187
He clicked it again.
188
The next lamp flickered into darkness.
189
Twelve times he clicked the put -outer, until the only lights left in the whole street were two tiny pinpricks in the distance, which were the eyes of the cat watching him.
190
If anyone looked out their window now, even beady -eyed Mrs. Dursley, they wouldn't be able to see anything that was happening down on the pavement.
191
Dumbledore slipped the put -outer back inside his cloak and set off down the street towards number four, where he sat down on the wall next to the cat.
192
He didn't look at it, but after a moment he spoke to it.
193
Fancy seeing you here, Professor McGonagall.
194
He turned to smile at the tabby, but it had gone.
195
Instead he was smiling at a rather severe -looking woman who was wearing square glasses, exactly the shape of the markings the cat had around its eyes.
196
She too was wearing a cloak, an emerald one.
197
Her black hair was drawn into a tight bun.
198
She looked distinctly ruffled.
199
How did you know it was me?
200
She asked.
201
My dear Professor, I've never seen a cat sit so stiffly.
202
You'd be sit if you'd been sitting on a brick wall all day, said Professor McGonagall.
203
All day!
204
When you could have been celebrating!
205
I must have passed a dozen feasting parties on my way here!
206
Professor McGonagall sniffed angrily.
207
Oh, yes.
208
Everyone's celebrating all right, she said impatiently.
209
You'd think they'd be a bit more careful, but no. Even the muggles have noticed something's going on.
210
It was on their news.
211
She jacked a head back at the Dastley's dark living room window.
212
I heard it.
213
Fox of owls, shooting stars.
214
Well, they're not completely stupid.
215
They're bound to notice something.
216
Shooting stars down in Kent?
217
How about that was Daedalus Diggle?
218
He never had much sense.
219
You can't blame them, said Dumbledore gently.
220
We've had precious little to celebrate for eleven years.
221
I know that, said Professor McGonagall irritably.
222
But that's no reason to lose our heads.
223
People are being downright careless, out on the streets in broad daylight, not even dressed in muggle clothes, swapping rumours.
224
She threw a sharp sideways glance at Dumbledore here, as though hoping he was going to tell us something.
225
But he didn't.
226
So she went on.
227
A fine thing it would be if, on the day you know who seems to have disappeared at last, the Muggles found out about us all.
228
I suppose he really has gone, Dumbledore.
229
It certainly seems so, said Dumbledore.
230
We have much to be thankful for.
231
Would you care for a Shabbat Lemon?
232
A what?
233
A Shabbat Lemon.
234
They're a kind of Muggle sweet I'm rather fond of.
235
No, thank you, said Professor McGonagall coldly, as though she didn't even think this was the moment for Shabbat Lemons.
236
Yes, I see.
237
Even if you know who has gone.
238
My dear Professor, surely a sensible person like yourself can call him by his name.
239
All this you -know -who nonsense.
240
For eleven years I have been trying to persuade people to call him by his proper name.
241
Voldemort.
242
Professor McGonagall flinched, but Dumbledore, who was unsticking two Sherbet Lemons, seemed not to notice.
243
It all gets so confusing if we keep saying you -know -who.
244
I have never seen any reason to be frightened of saying Voldemort's name.
245
I know you haven't, said Professor McGonagall, sounding half exasperated, half admiring him.
246
But you're different.
247
Everyone knows you're the only one you know.
248
Oh, all right.
249
Voldemort was ever frightened of.
250
You flatter me, said Dumbledore calmly.
251
Voldemort had powers I will never have.
252
Only because you're too, well, noble to use them.
253
It's lucky it's dark.
254
I haven't blushed so much since Madame Pomfrey told me she liked my new earmuffs.
255
Professor McGonagall shot a sharp look at Dumbledore and said, the owls are nothing to the rumors that are flying around.
256
You know what everyone's saying about why he's disappeared, about what finally stopped him.
257
It seemed that Professor McGonagall had reached the point she was most anxious to discuss.
258
The real reason she'd been waiting on a curled hard wall all day, for neither as a cat nor as a woman had she fixed Dumbledore with such a passing stare as she did now.
259
It was plain that whatever everyone was saying, she was not going to believe it until Dumbledore told her it was true.
260
Dumbledore, however, was choosing another shabbat lemon and did not answer.
261
What they're saying, she pressed on, is that last night Voldemort turned up in Godric's Hollow.
262
He went to find the Potter's.
263
The rumor is that Lily and James Potter are.. that they're.. dead.
264
Dumbledore bowed his head.
265
Professor McGonagall gasped.
266
Lily and James?
267
I can't believe it.
268
I don't want to believe it.
269
Oh, Albus.
270
Dumbledore reached out and patted her on the shoulder.
271
I know.
272
I know.
273
He said heavily.
274
Professor McGonagall's voice trembled as she went on.
275
That's not all.
276
They're trying to say he...
277
He tried to kill the Potter's son, Harry, but...
278
But he couldn't.
279
He couldn't kill that little boy.
280
No one knows why or how.
281
But they're saying that when he couldn't kill Harry Potter, Voldemort's power somehow broke, and that's why he's gone.
282
Dumbledore nodded glumly.
283
It's...
284
It's true.
285
"'Faulted Professor McGonagall.
286
"'After all, he's done, all the people he's killed.
287
"'He couldn't kill a little boy.
288
"'It's just astounding.
289
"'Of all the things to stop him, but how in the name of heaven did Harry survive?' "'We can only guess,' said Dumbledore.
290
"'We may never know.' Professor McGonagall pulled out a lace handkerchief "'and dabbed at her eyes beneath his spectacles.
291
"'Dumbledore gave a great sniff as he took a gulden watch from his pocket "'and examined it.
292
"'It was a very odd watch.
293
"'It had twelve hands but no numbers, Instead, little planets were moving around the edge.
294
It must have made sense to Dumbledore, though, because he put it back in its pocket and said, Hagrid's late.
295
I suppose it was he who told you I'd be here, by the way.
296
Yes, said Professor McGonagall.
297
And I don't suppose you're going to tell you why you're here, of all places.
298
I've come to bring Harry to his aunt and uncle.
299
They're the only family he has left now.
300
You don't mean...
301
You can't mean the people who live here, cried Professor McGonagall, jumping to her feet and pointing at number four.
302
Dumbledore, you can't.
303
I've been watching them all day.
304
You can find two people who are less like us.
305
And they've got this son.
306
I saw him kicking his mother all the way up the street, screaming for sweets.
307
Harry Potter, come and live here.
308
It's the best place for him, said Dumbledore family.
309
His aunt and uncle will be able to explain everything to him when he's older.
310
I've written him a letter.
311
A letter, repeated Professor McGonagall faintly, sitting back down on the wall.
312
Really, Dumbledore, you think you can explain all this in a letter?
313
These people will never understand him.
314
He'll be famous, a legend.
315
I wouldn't be surprised if today was known as Harry Potter Day in the future.
316
There will be books written about him.
317
Every child in our world will know his name.
318
Exactly, said Dumbledore, looking very seriously over the top of his half -moon spectacles.
319
It would be enough to turn any boy's head famous before he can walk and talk, famous for something he won't even remember.
320
Can't you see how much better off he'll be, growing up away from all that until he's ready to take it?
321
Professor McGonagall opened a mouth, changed her mind, swallowed, and then said, Yes, yes, you're right, of course.
322
But how is the boy getting here, Dumbledore?
323
She eyed his cloak suddenly as though she thought he might be hiding Harry underneath it.
324
Hagrid's bringing him.
325
You think it wise to trust Hagrid with something as important as this?
326
I would trust Hagrid with my life, said Dumbledore.
327
I'm not saying his heart isn't in the right place, said Professor McGonagall grudgingly.
328
But you can't pretend he's not careless.
329
He does tend to...
330
What was that?
331
A low rumbling sound had broken the silence around them.
332
It grew steadily louder as they looked up and down the street for some sign of a headlight.
333
It swelled to a roar as they both looked up at the sky.
334
And a huge motorbike fell out of the air and landed on the road in front of them.
335
If the motorbike was huge, it was nothing to the man sitting astride it.
336
He was almost twice as tall as a normal man, and at least five times as wide.
337
He looked simply too big to be allowed, and so wild, long tangles of bushy black hair and beard hid most of his face.
338
He had hands the size of dustbin lids, and his feet in their leather boots were like baby dolphins.
339
In his vast muscular arms, he was holding a bundle of blankets.
340
"'Hagrid,' said Dumbledore, sounding relieved. "'At last!
341
And where did you get the motorbike?' "'Borrowed it, Professor Dumbledore, sir,' said the giant, climbing carefully off the motorbike as he spoke.
342
"'Young Sirius Black lent it to me.
343
I've got them, sir.' No problems with her.
344
No, sir.
345
House was almost destroyed, but I got him out all right before the muggles started swarming around.
346
He fell asleep as we were flying over Bristol.
347
Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall bent forward over the bundle of blankets.
348
Inside, just visible, was a baby boy fast asleep.
349
Under a tuft of jet black hair over his forehead, they could see a curiously shaped cut, like a belt of lightning.
350
Is that where.. whispered Professor McGonagall.
351
Yes, said Dumbledore.
352
He'll have that scar forever.
353
Couldn't you do something about it, Dumbledore?
354
Even if I could, I wouldn't.
355
Scars can come in useful.
356
I have one myself above my left knee, which is a perfect map of the London Underground.
357
Well, give him here, Hagrid.
358
We better get this over with.
359
Dumbledore took Harry in his arms and turned towards the Darsley's house.
360
Could I.. could I say goodbye to him, sir?" asked Hagrid.
361
He bent his great shaggy head over Harry and gave him what must have been a very scratchy, whiskery kiss.
362
Then suddenly, Hagrid let out a howl like a wounded dog.
363
"'Shh!' hears Professor McConnacle.
364
"'You'll wake the muggles!' "'Sorry!' sobbed Hagrid, taking out a large spotted handkerchief and burying his face in it.
365
"'But I can't stand it!
366
Lily and James dead and poor little Harry have to live with muggles!' Yes, yes, it's all very sad, but get a grip on yourself, Hagrid, or we'll be found, Professor McGonagall whispered,
367
patting Hagrid gingerly on the arm as Dumbledore stepped over the low garden wall and walked to the front door.
368
He laid Harry gently on the doorstep, took a letter out of his cloak, tucked it inside Harry's blankets, and then came back to the other two.
369
For a full minute, the three of them stood and looked at the little bundle.
370
Hagrid's shoulders shook.
371
Professor McGonagall blinked furiously, and the twinkling light that usually shone from Dumbledore's eyes seemed to have gone out.
372
"'Well,' said Dumbledore finally, "'that's that.
373
We've no business staying here.
374
We may as well go and join the celebrations.' "'Yeah,' said Hagrid in a very muffled voice.
375
"'I'd best get this bike away.
376
Good night, Professor McGonagall.
377
Professor Dumbledore, sir.' Wiping his streaming eyes on his jacket sleeve, Hagrid swam himself onto the motorbike and kicked the engine to life.
378
With a roar it rose into the air and off into the night.
379
"'I shall see you soon, I expect, Professor McGonagall said Dumbledore, nodding to her.
380
Professor McGonagall blew her nose in reply.
381
Dumbledore turned and walked back down the street.
382
On the corner he stopped and took up the silver put -outer.
383
He clicked it once and twelve balls of light sped back to their street lamps
384
so that Privet Drive glowed suddenly orange
385
and he could make out a tabby cat slinking around the corner at the other end of the street.
386
He could just see the bundle of blankets on the step of number four.
387
Good luck, Harry, he murmured.
388
He turned on his heel and with a swish of his cloak he was gone.
389
A breeze ruffled the neat hedges of Privet Drive, which lay silent and tidy under the inky sky, the very last place you would expect astonishing things to happen.
390
Harry Potter rolled over inside his blankets without waking up.
391
One small hand closed on the letter beside him, and he slept on, not knowing he was special, not knowing he was famous, not knowing he would be woken in a few hours' time
392
by Mrs. Dursley's scream as she opened the front door to put out the milk bottles, nor that he would spend the next few weeks being prodded and pinched by his cousin Dudley.
393
He couldn't know that at this very moment, people meeting in secret all over the country were holding up their glasses and saying in hushed voices,
394
To Harry Potter, the boy who lived.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
