儿子中午没有睡着觉，偷偷地鼓捣着什么，我走近一瞧，原来在看苏斯博士的书，全十册，就剩下三本没看了，我让他不要躲在被窝里看书，毁眼睛。他央求我不要告诉爸爸，唉，这个鬼精灵只害怕他爸爸吵，不想想视力受到影响怎么办啊？

让我们开始《卡由》之旅，置身在语言的氛围中才能自然习得这门语言，这是语言的本能，聆听是语言学习的王道。CAILLOU(卡由)系列动画229集（英语原版）无中文配音和字幕。这是PBS（美国公共广播公司）播出的著名儿童系列节目。该节目的对象是学龄前儿童，在南美很受孩子们欢迎。我国也有Caillou的品牌童装销售。卡由（Caillou）是一个4岁的光头（法语意为小石头或小卵石）小男孩。剧集就是叙述他和2岁的妹妹（Rosie）、小猫（Gilbert）及家人和小朋友的生活故事。这些孩子生活中的“琐碎事”，或大多数孩子都经历过，正因为如此，孩子们才会感到亲切，看的时候才心情放松（把它视为英语资料另论）。画外音唱：“你正在成长为一个大男孩”。卡由唱道“我只是一个4岁的孩子，每天我长一点儿；我喜欢探险，我是卡由；如此多的事情要去做，每一天的新鲜事，我将与你们分享；我是卡由，我的世界是转动的，每一天都在变；有妈妈，爸爸帮助，成长不是如此的艰难，除非我已经受够了；但是这里有很多有趣的东西；我是卡由，卡由，卡由，我是卡由！那就是我，是我！是我！是我！”卡由系列一直以来深受好评，作者是个儿童心理专家。
推荐这套碟子理由如下：
第一，卡由系列关于儿童心里的描绘敏感而又准确，这系列很准确地将儿童期两个不同的阶段刻画了出来，不但四岁的卡由心里描绘的恰如其分，连其两岁的妹妹的心理也刻画的恰到好处。真不愧是儿童心理学家的作品。
第二点，故事情节的铺展给人以温文尔雅，平和，普通感觉，也就是没有脱离我们的生活环境。这个和目前流行的故事情节让人虽激动不已，但却近乎于歇斯底里的儿童片有很大的不同。卡由系列看似平淡但却让小朋友们可以深刻体会到儿童生长中碰到的点点滴滴的快乐和痛苦，充分地让孩子们有一种替代感。
第三点，也许不是这个系列所特有的，就是关于父母的刻画让人耳目一新，抛弃传统的二元论的方式，即父亲的角色代表了事业上的一帆风顺，而母亲的角色则是圣洁的家庭守卫者，片中的父母更具人性化，他们也有自己的娱乐，也会因为要参加宴会而临时找个保姆。
第四，也是最重要的一点，片中配音非常专业、清晰，对孩子们的纯正英文的输入是非常有帮助的。
寒假作业就是精看《卡由》四个故事，两星期一个。精看的意思是反复看，反复听，甚至他在玩耍的时候也给孩子们当背景音乐放起，掌握重点句型和词汇，然后他们愿意继续看多少集都随他们，并且会陆续把语言点整理收录如下，以备参考。

00:11:08       Bugs, mommy.
00:11:18       There, all gone.
00:11:19       They were just shadows.
00:11:21       But what about the scratchy monster?
00:11:24       I don't hear a scratchy monster.
00:11:26       There is a scratchy monster in here.
00:11:30       He's making scratchy sounds.
00:11:32       I'm sure you think you heard something.
00:11:36       But there's no need to be afraid of monsters.
00:11:38       Do you know why?
00:11:40       Because monsters aren't real.
00:11:43       They're just make-believe.
00:11:45       Good night, dear.
00:11:47       (Sing-song) I'm not afraid of monsters, I'm not afraid of monsters.
00:11:54       (Rustling) ahh!
00:12:04       Ow! huh?
00:12:06       Daddy!
00:12:11       It's okay, caillou.
00:12:13       It's just your toy snaky.
00:12:14       yes, but there was a flying monster, and the scratchy monster, it's in my room.
00:12:20       you probably just imagined you heard something, caillou.
00:12:24       I can't find anything.
00:12:25       But the scratchy monster, he went krsh-krsh-krsh.
00:12:31       Try listening to the music box.
00:12:33       It'll make happy sounds for you while you sleep.
00:12:37       Good night, caillou.
00:12:42       (Rustling) (gasps) mommy! daddy!
00:12:51       The scratchy monster, he's got me.
00:12:54       Help!
00:12:55       Ahhh! a two-headed monster.
00:12:58       .. the music box a...
00:13:01       I heard a "eeeee" ..
00:13:04       The wind was making the tree branch hit the window.
00:13:07       That's what was making the scary noise.
00:13:10       See, darling?
00:13:10       Sometimes ordinary things can seem scary.
00:13:14       So the scratchy monster was just the tree?
00:13:18       (Rustling) look, the scratchy monster.
00:13:24       It wasn't a monster, it was just gilbert.
00:13:28       Dad: that cat.
00:13:29       Mom: you'll be able to sleep fine now, dear.
00:13:31       With a little help from teddy.
00:13:34       (Sigh of relief) I hope there won't be any more scary sounds.
00:13:39       I know how teddy can help make sure there won't be any more scary sounds.

00:11:03       Whatever's the matter, caillou?
00:11:05       You don't look very happy.
00:11:08       I've got nobody to play with.
00:11:12       Don't you have any friends?
00:11:15       No. I don't.
00:11:17       at that moment caillou really thought he didn't have any friends, and that made him feel even more sad and lonely.
00:11:25       I'm sure you must have some friends.
00:11:27       Let's see if we can think of one.
00:11:30       What about that nice girl clementine?
00:11:33       Caillou: clementine loves candies.
00:11:37       Can i?
00:11:39       Nope.
00:11:42       Okay, want some?
00:11:49       Oh no.
00:11:56       I'm putting the yellow ones in a row.
00:12:03       caillou, that candy was on the floor.
00:12:06       It's not going in your mouth.
00:12:09       Wait a minute.
00:12:10       I have some more here.
00:12:11       They're clean.
00:12:16       Grandma: well, that's one friend.
00:12:18       Do you have any others?
00:12:20       .. I don't think so.
00:12:25       ..
00:12:27       What about that boy, leo?
00:12:29       Caillou: leo's funny.
00:12:31       (Giggles) mom: what's so funny, you two?
00:12:36       Nothing, mommy.
00:12:41       (Pfft) (giggles) well now. that's two friends.
00:12:48       Do you have any others?
00:12:50       No.
00:12:51       Really?
00:12:53       What about gilbert?
00:12:54       Isn't he your friend?
00:12:56       Yay!
00:12:57       caillou had forgotten about gilbert.
00:12:58       Of course, gilbert was his friend.
00:13:02       Yay gilbert, you're my friend.
00:13:04       Storyteller: caillou was much happier now.
00:13:06       He started out thinking he didn't have any friends.
00:13:10       But now he knew he had three.
00:13:12       And now that he knew he had three friends, caillou began to think about whether he had any more.
00:13:19       Rosie's my sister, grandma, but she's my friend, too.
00:13:23       That's right.
00:13:25       Caillou.
00:13:28       (Lawnmower starts) hello, everybody.
00:13:31       Caillou: hello, mr. hinkle.
00:13:33       And mr. hinkle's my friend, too.
00:13:35       I have lots of friends, don't i, grandma?
00:13:38       Yes. you do.
00:13:46       Look who's coming.
00:13:48       Caillou: it's mommy and daddy.
00:13:49       Mommy! daddy! you're my friends.
00:13:51       And so's rosie and gilbert and mr. hinkle.
00:13:54       And clementine and leo.
00:13:56       Are those all your friends?
00:13:59       Yes.
00:13:59       Aren't you forgetting someone?
00:14:02       ..
00:14:03       And you're my friend, too, grandma.

00:17:21       -Hello Caillou. How nice to see you again.
00:17:25       Now how's that ear coming along? Let's take a look.
00:17:29       -No. My dinosaur's going to bite you.
00:17:33       -So your dinosaur isn't happy to see me.
00:17:36       Hmmm... Do you think he'd mind if I looked in your ear?
00:17:42       -Last time Caillou was at the doctor's, his ear hurt him a lot.
00:17:53       -So this is what's bothering you.
00:17:56       -You put that in my ear. You hurt me.
00:17:59       -Would you like to look through it, Caillou?

00:18:26       -I'm very pleased. You'll be all better in a day or two.
00:18:32       Oh, no. He's not going to bite me, is he?
00:18:37       Ah. I see. You want me to check the dinosaur's ear...
00:18:42       -Yes.
00:18:44       -Hmmm... Hmmmm....
00:18:46       I think you must have been giving him the right medicine, Doctor Caillou.
00:18:51       Well done, Doctor Caillou. Your dinosaur's all better now.
00:18:57       -When Doctor Caillou got home, he couldn't wait to find someone with an earache.
00:19:01       -It's funny in your ears, Gilbert.

一到周末，课内作业也超多，可怜我儿忙完语文又去写数学，一晚上都忙个不停。
除了看英文碟子，儿子根本没时间看别的，他说，明天一定要到另一个小区去捡银杏叶，希望能抽出空来。
