3
One afternoon, Elephant said, It sure is quiet around here today.
4
Monkey wiggled her ears.
5
Maybe too quiet, she said.
6
Just then, cousin Mimi and her baby stopped by.
7
Good news, said Mimi.
8
My mashed banana pie won first prize in the Yum Yum Baking Contest.
9
Ooh, that is good news, said Monkey, clapping her hands.
10
What's the prize? asked Elephant.
11
A cart full of coconuts, said Mimi.
12
Nice, said Monkey.
13
Yes, said Mimi, but I must pick them up at tasty cooking school.
14
Too far to take my babies.
15
Not too far for me, said Baby 1.
16
Not far for me, said Baby 2.
17
Not me, Teehee, said Baby 3.
18
If only I had a babysitter, said cousin Mimi.
19
Monkey looked at Elephant.
20
It's really too quiet around here, she said.
21
We will babysit for you, Mimi.
22
We will? said Elephant.
23
Of course we will, said Monkey.
24
Right, Elephant?
25
She gave him a little poke.
26
Hmm, said Elephant. Of course.
27
Oh, thank you, monkey and elephant, said cousin Mimi.
28
I'll bring the babies over tomorrow after breakfast.
29
Mmm, I like breakfast, said baby one.
30
Mmm, and lunch, said baby two.
31
Mmm, and snacks, teehee, said baby three.
32
Mimi and the babies waved bye-bye and headed for home.
33
Monkey, said Elephant, have you ever babysat before?
34
Monkey shrugged.
35
No, not really. Have you?
36
No, never, said Elephant.
37
Well then, best friend, said Monkey, here we go again.
38
Together on another adventure.
39
Chapter 2 Some Rules Monkey, said Elephant the next morning, do you think babysitting will be hard?
40
Monkey scampered up his trunk and settled behind one big ear.
41
For babysitting, she said, we need some rules.
42
What rules? asked Elephant.
43
Monkey scratched her head and looked down the path.
44
I will tell you when I know, she said, scrambling down Elephant's trunk.
45
They're here!
46
We want to play, shouted Baby One.
47
Play with you, shouted Baby Two.
48
Play with me.
49
Tee-hee, shouted Baby Three.
50
Mimi blew kisses and hurried away.
51
The babies ran around Elephant.
52
They grabbed his tail, squeezed his ears, and jumped rope with his trunk.
53
Ouch! cried Elephant.
54
Rule number one, said Monkey.
55
Play, but not too rough, okay?
56
Okay, they all agreed.
57
I want to race now, hollered Baby One.
58
Race fast, shouted Baby Two.
59
Race me!
60
Teehee, squealed Baby Three.
61
No, me, me, me, they all shouted.
62
Quiet, please, said Monkey.
63
Rule number two.
64
No, me, me, me.
65
She drew a line in the dust.
66
Everyone starts here at the same time, okay?
67
Okay, the babies agreed.
68
Now listen for elephant's trumpet, said monkey.
69
Wah, wah, wah, elephant blew.
70
Go!
71
The babies raced back and forth, back and forth, until...
72
Too hard, said Baby 1.
73
Give me water, said Baby 2.
74
I'm hungry, said Baby 3 without a teehee.
75
Uh-oh, said Elephant.
76
Are they whining?
77
I think so, said Monkey.
78
Is there a rule for it?
79
Monkey held up three fingers.
80
Rule number three, snack now, nap later.
81
Elephant set down cups of water.
82
Monkey gave the baby some banana chips.
83
They nibbled and yawned, nibbled and yawned.
84
And when you finish eating, said Monkey, it's nap time.
85
But by then, they were already snuggled up asleep.
86
Ahoo, elephant yawned, babysitting, sure is hard work.
87
Monkey closed her eyes.
88
Yes, it sure is.
89
Chapter 3, Home Again Wrestle, wrestle, wrestle.

In the tall, dry grass, three riffraff wildcats crouched low and whispered,
91

92
Did you know that baby monkeys are the very best snack?
93
Oh?
94

100
And stay away! snorted elephant.
101
The babies woke up.
102
They rubbed their eyes and looked around.
103

112
Sounds nice and busy, said Mimi.
113

114
Cousin Mimi pulled a cart full of coconuts out of the tall grass.
115
Here, she said.
116
She put a big pile of coconuts in the grass.
117
For you, good babysitters, she said.
118

128
They helped one another into the cart.
129
Me me, said elephant.
130
Even though you have a cart now, sometimes can we still babysit? so things won't get too quiet, said Monkey.
131
What do you say, babies? asked Mimi.
132
Sometimes, for sure!
133
Wait!
134
They agreed and waved bye-bye.
135
Monkey and Elephant sat in the shade, sipping fresh coconut juice.
136
Ah, sighed Monkey.

A nice way to end this adventure.
138
Mmm, adventure, said Elephant.
139
What we both like, said Monkey.

Forever, Monkey and Elephant promised together.

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.
