1
Hi, it's Dog.
2
Today we have a question about April Fool's Day from someone named Mira.
3
Let's give her a call now.
4
Hi, Dog.
5
Hi, Mira.
6
I have a question for you.
7
Why do we celebrate April Fool's Day?
8
That's a great question.
9
April Fool's Day is always the day of the year you have to be a little careful.
10
You never know, you might walk into a room and find out it's been filled with balloons.
11
Or maybe you find your classroom has been covered in newspaper.
12
April Fool's Day might be one of the strangest holidays there is.
13
A holiday where people play pranks on each other.
14
Little things that might annoy someone or make them laugh or sometimes just confuse people.
15
Here's one of my favorite pranks.
16
This teacher played a prank on his students by giving them the hardest spelling quiz ever.
17
Alright, going through the list with the spelling.
18
You're checking your own list.
19
Here we go.
20
The first word was Blorsky.
21
I lost my Blorsky at a carnival.
22
B-L-O-R-S-K-E-E The next word is speeku.
23
Look, there's a speeku.
24
S-P-E-E-K-U-Z-S-L-M-N.
25
There's silent letters at the end of that one.
26
But then he told them the truth.
27
This is an April Fool's joke!
28
I'm an April Fool's joke!
29
I'm an April Fool's joke!
30
Close enough.
31
April Fool's.
32
No one knows exactly why or when April Fool's Day started, but it's been going on a while.
33
Every year for a long time now, newspapers tend to print at least one fake story or picture.
34
Most people have fun trying to spot the one story or photo that's fake.
35
But always, every April Fool's Day, there's someone who forgets what day of the year it is and they wind up getting tricked.
36
Like maybe someone offers you a cookie, only for you to find out it's been filled with toothpaste.
37
Yuck.
38
Have you ever had someone play an April Fool's prank on you?
39
Now'd be a good time to pause the video and discuss.
40
Since lots of April Fool's pranks are about confusing or annoying people, not everyone loves getting pranks played on them.
41
Like imagine you found your car covered in post-it notes.
42
You might find the prank funny, but other people might be upset.
43
It could really depend on how far the prank goes.
44
For example, one year on April Fool's Day, a television station in Boston, USA, a place that has no volcanoes,
45
aired a fake news story claiming that a nearby hill had started to erupt lava.
46
It was meant as a joke, but a lot of people took it seriously.
47
They panicked and they packed their cars up and left their homes.
48
When they later found out that it wasn't true, the news station got in big trouble.
49
Modern technology makes it harder and harder to know what's fake.
50
Like, take these two photographs.
51
You've got a photo of a lion and a photo of a child.
52
But using a computer, it's actually fairly easy to take the child out of the photo and make it look like,
53
see, there's a child reaching out and giving a lion a hug.
54
And it's not just photos that someone can fake using modern technology.
55
One year, the British television channel BBC aired this video.
56
Can you spot what's wrong with it?
57
It shows penguins flying, but this video is not real.
58
Animators used computer software to draw penguins, then used special effects to make it seem like a real video.
59
They did such a good job that some people saw this video and were actually fooled.
60
They thought someone found penguins that could fly.
61
Will you remember not to get fooled on April Fool's Day?
62
Here's a tip.
63
Just always remember what day it is.
64
If it's the beginning of April and you hear or see something that seems a little unbelievable, maybe think twice.
65
That's all for this week's question.
66
Thanks, Mira, for asking it.
67
Now, for the next episode, I reached into my question jar and licked three questions submitted to me that I'm thinking about answering.
68
When this video is done playing, you'll get to vote on one.
69
You can choose from, what makes food delicious?
70
Why do different instruments make different sounds?
71
Or, why do we have allergies?
72
So submit your vote when the video is over.
73
I want to hear from all of you watching.
74
There are mysteries all around us.
75
Stay curious and see you next week.

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.
