Gary the Dreamer by Gary Soto Illustrated by Elizabeth Gomez I was born in April,
2
a month when it rains and rains.
3
Maybe this is why when I was three years old, I liked to open my mouth and taste rain.
4
Also, April is when flowers bloom, bees arrive out of nowhere.
5
I lived in a small white house.
6
My dog's name was Blackie.
7
My cat's name was Boots.
8
I had a canary just bigger than a big person's thumb.
9
But my bird flew away when the little door of its cage was left open.
10
So sorry, little canary, but I think it was me who left it open.
11
I remember my high chair.
12
I remember watching my parents and older brother at the dinner table.
13
When I got a little bigger, I got to sit with them.
14
Most mornings I ate oatmeal sprinkled with brown sugar.
15
The sugar was like rocket energy.
16
I blasted out of the house, ready to play.
17
I played tag with the neighbor kids.
18
I played hide-and-seek.
19
I played catch with oranges.
20
In our backyard we had an orange tree.
21
We also had plum, lemon, and apple trees.
22
Lucky me!
23
Anytime I was hungry for a snack, I just went outside and picked a fruit.
24
I didn't have many toys.
25
My army men were pinto beans and pebbles.
26
I played with them in the dirt.
27
I got dirty from playing hard.
28
It seemed like a giant pepper shaker had sprinkled me with dust.
29
My favorite fruit was watermelon.
30
After I ate a slice of watermelon, I ended up with seeds in my mouth.
31
These seeds were my ammo to spit at my older brother.
32
He would spit some back at me.
33
It was sort of like a fun war.
34
The seeds flew all over the place.
35
In kindergarten, I learned my colors.
36
I learned to tie my shoes and to be nice.
37
I liked to sing, too.
38
My brother said he could hear me from the next classroom.
39
I made my first friend, Daryl.
40
I made another friend, Jose.
41
At recess, we went on the slide.
42
It was like a big shiny spoon and slippery.
43
Then we went on the swings.
44
It was scary but fun going high and jumping out.
45
Then we went on the monkey bars.
46
If I fell, I never got hurt.
47
In first grade, I practiced writing the alphabet.
48
The letters were big and blocky.
49
I wrote my name, G-A-R-Y.
50
Some days my nice teacher would have to tell me, Gary, sit still.
51
I wiggled a lot in my chair.
52
I dreamed a lot.
53
I was busy looking at the floor or my hands or out the window.
54
Wow, could that be my canary in the tree?
55
I couldn't pronounce some words.
56
I couldn't say sandwich.
57
I would say Sammy.
58
I knew that 2 plus 2 was 4.
59
But what was 5 plus 7?
60
I counted out my answer on my fingers, sticky from the peanut butter and jam, inside my Sammy.
61
In second grade, we collected money to help children in Africa.
62
They didn't have anything to eat.
63
I collected pennies, lots of pennies.
64
I noticed that the pennies were the same as me.
65
You see, I was naturally brown, and even browner from running in the sun.
66
I felt like I was giving poor Africa a piece of me.
67
My classmates got taller, but I seemed to stay the same size.
68
I still liked playing at recess.
69
I liked dodgeball, kickball, and foursquare.
70
I would tumble when I played soccer.
71
I was quick.
72
I admire people who are quick and who play fair.
73
By third grade, I was a good reader.
74
I loved picture books.
75
The pages were bright and colorful as toucans, those tropical birds with long beaks.
76
Every week I went to the public library.
77
I checked out mountains of books.
78
I was still a dreamer.
79
Sometimes I watched ants going in and out of their holes, or I would watch water racing in the curb.
80
The river of water carried matchsticks, leaves, gum wrappers, and those poor little ants.
81
I rescued some of those ants.
82
I put them carefully on my finger and set them on the cement curb.
83
They lay for a while like weak little shadows.
84
Then they woke up and staggered away.
85
It was fun in third grade.
86
I still stayed small, like those ants, I guess.
87
I was scared of math, poor me.
88
But reading was what I really liked.
89
I read on the couch, I read in bed with carrot sticks, like pencils in my hands.
90
I liked to read in my favorite tree.
91
Once when Boots came by, I tossed a piece of bark at him.
92
He looked around and meowed.
93
I giggled.
94
I tossed another piece of bark at him.
95
This time Boots saw me and climbed up the tree.
96
We sat on a fat limb, the two of us.
97
I read him a story about a bird.
98
He licked his paws.
99
The engine inside him began to purr.
100
I guess Boots liked reading too.
101
On weekends, my family went to Chinatown.
102
We bought groceries there at the Mexican store.
103
I remember mariachis roving the street.
104
Their sombreros were huge.
105
You couldn't see their eyes, only their hanging mustaches.
106
Their trumpets blared, the guitars strummed, their violins seemed to weep.
107
The guitarrant thumped deeply.
108
One time, I saw a dog dance to the mariachi music.
109
The dog went back and forth, back and forth, like he was doing the cha-cha.
110
Every night I took a bubble bath in our deep tub.
111
The water roared from the faucet as I climbed in.
112
The bubbles rose like mountains.
113
No, like really pretty clouds.
114
I scooped up the bubbles and patted them onto my face.
115
I pretended that I had a beard.
116
I placed some of the bubbles on my head.
117
Oh, a sombrero.
118
I was a dreamer.
119
I was sometimes in another world.
120
In bed, I covered myself with two blankets.
121
I thought about the day before I fell asleep, so tired.
122
My legs kicked.
123
As I dreamed I was running for a touchdown, and the whole school was watching me.
124
Gary Soto grew up to be an author.
125
He dreamed up ideas for more than 40 books for children and grown-ups.
126
He shares his Mexican-American culture through his poems and stories.
127
Thank you.

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.
