Gary the Dreamer by Gary Soto Illustrated by Elizabeth Gomez I was born in April,

a month when it rains and rains.

Maybe this is why when I was three years old, I liked to open my mouth and taste rain.

Also, April is when flowers bloom, bees arrive out of nowhere.

I lived in a small white house.

My dog's name was Blackie.

My cat's name was Boots.

I had a canary just bigger than a big person's thumb.

But my bird flew away when the little door of its cage was left open.

So sorry, little canary, but I think it was me who left it open.

I remember my high chair.

I remember watching my parents and older brother at the dinner table.

When I got a little bigger, I got to sit with them.

Most mornings I ate oatmeal sprinkled with brown sugar.

The sugar was like rocket energy.

I blasted out of the house, ready to play.

I played tag with the neighbor kids.

I played hide-and-seek.

I played catch with oranges.

In our backyard we had an orange tree.

We also had plum, lemon, and apple trees.

Lucky me!

Anytime I was hungry for a snack, I just went outside and picked a fruit.

I didn't have many toys.

My army men were pinto beans and pebbles.

I played with them in the dirt.

I got dirty from playing hard.

It seemed like a giant pepper shaker had sprinkled me with dust.

My favorite fruit was watermelon.

After I ate a slice of watermelon, I ended up with seeds in my mouth.

These seeds were my ammo to spit at my older brother.

He would spit some back at me.

It was sort of like a fun war.

The seeds flew all over the place.

In kindergarten, I learned my colors.

I learned to tie my shoes and to be nice.

I liked to sing, too.

My brother said he could hear me from the next classroom.

I made my first friend, Daryl.

I made another friend, Jose.

At recess, we went on the slide.

It was like a big shiny spoon and slippery.

Then we went on the swings.

It was scary but fun going high and jumping out.

Then we went on the monkey bars.

If I fell, I never got hurt.

In first grade, I practiced writing the alphabet.

The letters were big and blocky.

I wrote my name, G-A-R-Y.

Some days my nice teacher would have to tell me, Gary, sit still.

I wiggled a lot in my chair.

I dreamed a lot.

I was busy looking at the floor or my hands or out the window.

Wow, could that be my canary in the tree?

I couldn't pronounce some words.

I couldn't say sandwich.

I would say Sammy.

I knew that 2 plus 2 was 4.

But what was 5 plus 7?

I counted out my answer on my fingers, sticky from the peanut butter and jam, inside my Sammy.

In second grade, we collected money to help children in Africa.

They didn't have anything to eat.

I collected pennies, lots of pennies.

I noticed that the pennies were the same as me.

You see, I was naturally brown, and even browner from running in the sun.

I felt like I was giving poor Africa a piece of me.

My classmates got taller, but I seemed to stay the same size.

I still liked playing at recess.

I liked dodgeball, kickball, and foursquare.

I would tumble when I played soccer.

I was quick.

I admire people who are quick and who play fair.

By third grade, I was a good reader.

I loved picture books.

The pages were bright and colorful as toucans, those tropical birds with long beaks.

Every week I went to the public library.

I checked out mountains of books.

I was still a dreamer.

Sometimes I watched ants going in and out of their holes, or I would watch water racing in the curb.

The river of water carried matchsticks, leaves, gum wrappers, and those poor little ants.

I rescued some of those ants.

I put them carefully on my finger and set them on the cement curb.

They lay for a while like weak little shadows.

Then they woke up and staggered away.

It was fun in third grade.

I still stayed small, like those ants, I guess.

I was scared of math, poor me.

But reading was what I really liked.

I read on the couch, I read in bed with carrot sticks, like pencils in my hands.

I liked to read in my favorite tree.

Once when Boots came by, I tossed a piece of bark at him.

He looked around and meowed.

I giggled.

I tossed another piece of bark at him.

This time Boots saw me and climbed up the tree.

We sat on a fat limb, the two of us.

I read him a story about a bird.

He licked his paws.

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.

过去进行时 was/were + -ing — 过去某一时刻正在进行的动作	was giving · was doing · was running

需要注意的发音

说话人用了 5 次缩略和弱读形式，例如 couldn't, didn't。请按听到的简短形式来说。

词尾辅音 — 要读清楚，后面不要加元音: ant /ænt/, seed /siːd/, collect /ˈkɑlɪkt/, toss /tɔs/, bark /bɑɹk/
/r/ 和 /l/ 的区别: naturally /ˈnæt͡ʃ.(ə.)ɹə.li/, carefully /ˈkɛɹf(ə)li/, tropical /ˈtɹɑ.pɪ.kəl/, classroom /ˈklɑːsɹʊm/, colorful /ˈkʌl.əɹ.fl̩/

如何用这段视频练习

用正常速度逐句跟读，每句重复到你的节奏与说话人一致为止。
录下自己的声音并与原声对比，特别注意 bubble, ant, seed 这类单词。

什么是跟读法？

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
