This is an original production of The Gnomes of Wonder Garden,
2
with story, music, and performance by Nathaniel Santa Cruz,
3
and guest performance by Lisa and Sophia Santa Cruz.
4
Let's begin.
5
Chapter 11.
6
Missy Eliza Hummingbird.
7
Petty Pom rushed to open his front door.
8
Ruby and Citrine had come to drop off Tourmaline for the afternoon.
9
It was Yellow Day, which meant it was Petty Pom's turn to watch the little pixie
10
while the other fairies attended their fairy lessons with Pearl.
11
Hi, Petty Pom, said Tourmaline, twirling her skirt.
12
The little gnome welcomed her inside.
13
He turned to say goodbye to Ruby and Citrine,
14
but they were already gone.
15
Pettypalm spun around to find Tourmaline on the counter,
16
and a jar of biscuits shuddered on the floor.
17
Uh-oh, she said, looking at the mess.
18
Frantically, Pettypalm rushed over and quickly moved Tourmaline to a chair at the table.
19
Sister Flame appeared upon a candle and tried to entertain the little pixie while Pettypum cleaned up the mess.
20
But, unexpectedly, Tourmaline climbed onto the table and tried to grab her.
21
Immediately, Sister Flame vanished and reappeared on another candle.
22
Giggling, Tourmaline began leaping from table to chair to candle,
23
chasing the little flame as she jumped from candle to candle.
24
cried Petty Palm.
25
Quickly, he picked up termoline and gave her a biscuit.
26
Distracted, she sat on the floor with her legs outstretched and happily bunched on her snack.
27
With a sigh of relief,
28
Petty Palm sat down beside her and ate a biscuit too.
29
A quiet moment passed as they smiled at each other with mouthfuls.
30
Would you like some honey with your wicket? asked Pettypom.
31
What's honey? asked Tourmaline.
32
Pettypom gasped.
33
You've never had honey before?
34
Tourmaline just sat on the floor with a finger in her mouth and shook her head.
35
Quickly, Pettypom stood up to fetch his jar of honey,
36
only to discover it was empty.
37
Oh no, he said, I've run out.
38
Upon hearing this, Tourmaline's lip began to quiver,
39
and her eyes started to swell.
40
Oh, don't worry, he said quickly, reassuring her.
41
We just need to get some more.
42
Come follow me.
43
Okay.
44
Her frown quickly turned upside down,
45
and she grinned with happy teeth.
46
So Pettypom took his empty jar,
47
and Tourmaline followed him outside.
48
Together, they climbed down the plum tree and walked across the orchard to a hollow log where the honeybees were buzzing.
49
As they approached, Petty Palm began to sing.
50
Honey so sweet, I am swimming in honey so sweet.
51
From my head down to my little feet,
52
I am covered in honey so sweet.
53
Dearest friend, won't you come with me And we'll go up into the honey tree
54
And we'll dance with the honey bees Where the honey drips abundantly Come with me,
55
we'll eat honey so sweet We'll go swimming in honey so sweet From our heads down to our little feet
56
We'll be covered in honey so sweet Dearest friend won't you come with me And we'll go up into the honey tree
57
And we'll dance with the honey bees Where the honey drips abundantly Come with me and you'll see
58
Petty Palm was good friends with the honey bees And he knew how to talk to them by dancing.
59
Inside the beehive, the bees welcomed Petipalm to refill his jar while Tourmaline freely helped herself by licking honey off the walls.
60
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside and all the bees swarmed out,
61
leaving Petipalm and Tourmaline alone.
62
Following their lead, Petipalm peeked out to see what was happening.
63
To his surprise, he found the bees buzzing around a little bird who was trying to drink from the nearby flowers.
64
Pettypalm knew the bees did not like to share their flowers and could see that the little bird was distressed.
65
Without hesitation, Pettypalm quickly went over to help,
66
buzzing and dancing with vigor until the bees agreed to leave her alone and return to their hive.
67
Out of breath, the little bird thanked Pettypalm.
68
Thank you.
69
Kindly, the young gnome invited her to drink from the flowers and rest.
70
Once she had replenished herself,
71
she zipped and fluttered through the air like no one he'd ever seen.
72
Just then, Termaline joined them outside and asked, Who's that?
73
Hi, little one.
74
The little bird fluttered her wings and introduced herself as Miss Eliza Hummingbird.
75
Miss Eliza hummingbird I'm the smallest bird you've heard Not a buzzing bee,
76
not a fly you see I have feathers on my wings And a voice that proudly sings I'm a hummingbird,
77
a hummingbird No one can fly like me I'm a hummingbird,
78
a hummingbird Just watch me
79
and you'll see I can hover like a bee I can zigzag through the trees Zipping through the leaves,
80
cutting through the breeze You can hardly see my wings But can hear me proudly sing I'm a hummingbird,
81
a hummingbird, no one can fly like me.
82
I'm a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
83
just watch me and you'll see.
84
I'm a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
85
no one can fly like me.
86
I'm a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
87
just watch me and you'll see.
88
Amazed at how well she could fly,
89
Petty Palm explained how much he wished she could fly too.
90
Tourmaline flooded her tiny wings in agreement.
91
Well?
92
Said Eliza, zipping to and fro.
93
You were kind enough to save me from those bothersome bees.
94
I'd be delighted to give you a ride on my back.
95
Really?
96
They both said, their eyes twinkling.
97
Yes, of course!
98
She replied with excitement.
99
Without delay, Petty Palm and Termini hopped onto Eliza's back,
100
and up into the sky they soared.
101
They shouted.
102
Meanwhile, Thumpkin and Hamilton were enjoying their afternoon tea outside
103
when they looked up to see a new fairy joining Pearl's class in the sky.
104
But it didn't fly quite like the others.
105
Are you sure that's a fairy?
106
Thumpkin asked, squinting.
107
It looks like.. like Petty Pom!
108
Just then, the young gnome,
109
along with Termaline, darted by on Eliza's back,
110
laughter and giggles trailing behind them.
111
A sudden gust blew Thumpkin's hat off,
112
Settling it back on his head, he chuckled.
113
Well, it's about time that gnome could fly.
114
Thank you for listening, and we hope you enjoyed this story.

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。
