Harry : Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans?
Ron : They mean every flavor! There's chocolate and peppermint and also, spinach, liver and tripe. George sweared he got boogie flavored one once.
Harry : These aren't real frogs, are they?
Ron : It's just a spell. Besides, it's the cards you want. Each pack's got a famous witch or wizard. I got about 500 meself. Watch it! That's rotten luck. They've only got one good jump in them to begin with.
Harry : I've got Dumbledore!
Ron : I've got about 6 of him.
Harry : Hey, he's gone!
Ron : Well you can't expect him to hang around all day, can you? This is Scabbers by the way. Pathetic, isn't he?
Harry : Just a little bit.
Ron : Fred gave me a spell to turn him yellow. Want to see?
Harry : Yeah!

5)On our very first day at Harvard...
a very wise professor quoted Aristotle.
"The law is reason free from passion."
Well, no offense to Aristotle...
but in my three years at Harvard...
I have come to find that passion is a key ingredient...
to the study and practice of law and of life.
It is with passion, courage of conviction...
and strong sense of self...
that we take our next steps into the world...
remembering that first impressions...
are not always correct...
you must always have faith in people...
and most importantly...
you must always have faith in yourself.
Congratulations, Class of 2004.
We did it!

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men created equal.
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character

Mayu's immitation
1)The best gift I ever survived
2) 2;22-3;183)In spring term, I listened to this lecture. I was moved to it.
4)
5) And this, and then this. It was a rare gem -- a brain tumor, hemangioblastoma -- the gift that keeps on giving.
And while I'm okay now,
I wouldn't wish this gift for you.
I'm not sure you'd want it.
But I wouldn't change my experience.
It profoundly altered my life
in ways I didn't expect
in all the ways I just shared with you.
So the next time you're faced
with something that's unexpected,
unwanted and uncertain,
consider
that it just may be a gift.
Misaki's imitation of Chirles Chaplin from The Great Dictator

Soldiers! Don’t fight for slavery! Fight for liberty!
In the seventeenth chapter of St. Luke, it’s written “the kingdom of God is within man”, not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people, have the power, the power to create machines, the power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure. Then in the name of democracy, let us use that power.
Let us all unite.
Let us fight for a new world a decent world that will give men a chance to work, that will give youth a future and old age a security. By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfill their promise. They never will!
Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people!
Now let us fight to fulfill that promise! Let us fight to free the world! To do away with national barriers! To do away with greed, with hate and intolerance!
Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men’s happiness.
Soldiers, in the name of democracy, let us all unite!

Alice: You see, I was following...
Doorknob: Rather good, what? Doorknob, turn?
Alice: Please, sir.
Doorknob: Well, one good turn deserves another! What can I do for you?
Alice: Well, I'm looking for a white rabbit. So, um, if you don't mind...
Doorknob: Uh? Oh!
Alice: There he is! I simply must get through!
Doorknob: Sorry, you're much too big. Simply impassible.
Alice: You mean impossible?
Doorknob: No, impassible. Nothing's impossible! Why don't you try the bottle on the table?
Alice: Table? Oh!
Doorknob: Read the directions, and directly you'll be directed in the right direction. He he he!
Alice: 'Drink me'. Hmmm, better look first. For if one drinks much from a bottle marked 'poison', it's almost certain to disagree with one, sooner or later.
Doorknob: Beg your pardon!
Alice: I was just giving myself some good advice. But... hmm, tastes like oh... cherry tart... custard... pineapple... roast turkey... goodness! What did I do?
Doorknob: Ho ho ho ho! You almost went out like a candle!
Alice: But look! I'm just the right size!
Doorknob: Oh, no use! Ha ha ha ha. I forgot to tell you, ho ho ho ho! I'm locked!
Alice: Oh no!
Doorknob: Ha ha ha, but of course, uh, you've got the key, so...
Alice: What key?
Doorknob: Now, don't tell me you've left it up there!

Yes, the Commission does want to increase its powers. Yes, it is a
non-elected body and I do not want the Commission to increase its
powers against this House, so of course we are differing. Of
course, the chairman or the President of the Commission, Mr. Delors, said at a press
conference the other day that he wanted the European Parliament to be
the democratic body of the Community, he wanted the Commission to be
the Executive and he wanted the Council of Ministers to be the Senate.
No. No. No.
Or…. or…..or.. Perhaps the Labour party would give all those things
up easily. Perhaps it would agree to a single currency, to total
abolition of the pound sterling. Perhaps, being totally incompetent
with monetary matters, they’d be only too delighted to hand over full
responsibility as they did to the IMF, to a central bank. The fact is
they have no competence on money, no competence on the economy, so,
yes, the right hon. Gentleman would be glad to hand it all over.

Ayano's imitation（Don't eat the marshmallow!）

5)transcript:
I'm here because I have a very important message: I think we have found the most important factor for success.
And it was found close to here, Stanford.
Psychology professor took kids that were four years old and put them in a room all by themselves.
And he would tell the child, a four-year-old kid, "Johnny, I am going to leave you here with a marshmallow for 15 minutes. If, after I come back, this marshmallow is here, you will get another one. So you will have two."
To tell a four-year-old kid to wait 15 minutes for something that they like, is equivalent to telling us, "We'll bring you coffee in two hours." Exact equivalent.
So what happened when the professor left the room?
As soon as the door closed... two out of three ate the marshmallow.
Five seconds, 10 seconds, 40 seconds, 50 seconds, two minutes, four minutes, eight minutes.
Some lasted 14-and-a-half minutes.
Couldn't do it. Could not wait.
What's interesting is that one out of three would look at the marshmallow and go like this ...
Would look at it. Put it back.
They would walk around.
They would play with their skirts and pants.
That child already, at four, understood the most important principle for success, which is the ability to delay gratification.

Or else find the boy who lit the fire in the first place, to see if you can change him." But I know she will anyway, so instead I'll always keep an extra supply of chocolate and rain boots nearby, because there is no heartbreak that chocolate can't fix. Okay, there's a few heartbreaks that chocolate can't fix. But that's what the rain boots are for, because rain will wash away everything, if you let it. I want her to look at the world through the underside of a glass-bottom boat, to look through a microscope at the galaxies that exist on the pinpoint of a human mind, because that's the way my mom taught me. That there'll be days like this. ♫ There'll be days like this, my momma said. ♫ When you open your hands to catch and wind up with only blisters and bruises; when you step out of the phone booth and try to fly and the very people you want to save are the ones standing on your cape; when your boots will fill with rain, and you'll be up to your knees in disappointment. And those are the very days you have all the more reason to say thank you. Because there's nothing more beautiful than the way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shoreline, no matter how many times it's sent away.

2) 2:39 - 3:37
3) I chose this because I have taken to this poem.
4)
5) Here's the transcript.
You will put the wind in winsome, lose some. You will put the star in starting over, and over. And no matter how many land mines erupt in a minute, be sure your mind lands on the beauty of this funny place called life. And yes, on a scale from one to over-trusting, I am pretty damn naive. But I want her to know that this world is made out of sugar. It can crumble so easily, but don't be afraid to stick your tongue out and taste it. "Baby," I'll tell her, "remember, your momma is a worrier, and your poppa is a warrior, and you are the girl with small hands and big eyes who never stops asking for more." Remember that good things come in threes and so do bad things. And always apologize when you've done something wrong, but don't you ever apologize for the way your eyes refuse to stop shining. Your voice is small, but don't ever stop singing. And when they finally hand you heartache, when they slip war and hatred under your door and offer you handouts on street-corners of cynicism and defeat, you tell them that they really ought to meet your mother.
Ayaka's imitation of Spirited away
1) I'll imitate the ending of the of movie Spirited away which is one of the most famous Hayao Miyazaki's movies(link). In Japanese, the title of it is "Sen-to-Chihiro-no-kamikakushi". Sorry, I can't find voice actor's name.
2) I'll imitate the part 1:56:23-1:58:00.
3) I chose this because it is one of my most favorite animation movie. The movie has very deep theme. I chose this part because it is climax scene and maybe everyone know.

S: Hey, granny!
Y: Granny?
S: You’re right. A deal’s a deal. Okay, I’m ready. I’ll take your test.
Y: Hmm, you’ve got guts. I’ve got your contract right here. Come this way. This’ll only take a minute.
S: Don’t worry.
Y: See if you can tell which of these pigs is your mother or father. You get one try. If you get it right, you can all go home.
S: Huh? There must be a mistake. None of these pigs are my mom or dad.
Y: None of them? Is that really your answer?
S: Mm-hmm.
All: Oh, you got it!
S: Thank you, everyone.
Y: All right, you win. Get out of my sight.
S: Thank you for everything, Granny. Good-bye!
All: Good-bye!
S: Thank you!

Sombe:I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.
Mitsuya:I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."
Mitsuya:I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
Sombe:I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
Mitsuya:I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.I have a dream today!
Sombe:I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of "interposition" and "nullification" -- one day right there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.

Now, you will receive us.
We do not ask for your poor or your hungry.
We do not want your tired and sick.
It is your corrupt we claim.
It is your evil, who will be sought by us.
With every breath we shall hunt them down.
Each day we will spill their blood till it rains down from the skies.
Do not kill, do not rape, do not steal.
These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace.
These are not polite suggestions.
They are codes of behavior and those that
ignore them will pay the dearest cost.
There are varying degrees of evil.
We urge you lesser forms of filth.
Not to push the bounds and cross over into true corruption...
into our domain.
For if you do, there will come the day
when you look behind you and see we three.
And on that day you will reap it.
And we will send you to whatever God you wish.

Mark's Imitation of Heather's Confession in the Blair Witch Project
Hi everyone,
In connection with Halloween and horror, how is something like this?
1) I'll imitate the ending of the of movie Blair Witch Project (1999) (link).
2) I chose this because it is one of the more famous horror movie monologues. Here's the trailer for the whole movie.
2) I'll imitate a little over a minute of the following clip. It is the ending of the movie, just before the last student disappears...
3) Here's the video clip.
http://www.horrorlair.com/scripts/blairwitch_transcript.txt
(Cuts to night, Heather looking into camera)
(The confessional)
Heather: I just want to apologize to Mike's mom and Josh's mom and my mom
and I'm sorry to everyone. I was very naive. (Looks away from camera
scared) I was very naive and very stupid and I shouldn't have put other
people in danger for something that was all about me and my selfish motives.
I'm so sorry for everything that has happened because in spite of what Mike
says now it is my fault. Because it was my project and I insisted on
everything. I insisted we weren't lost. I insisted we keep going. I
insisted we walk south. Everything had to be my way and this is where we've
ended up. And it's all because of me were here now hungry and cold and
hunted. I love you mom and dad. I am so sorry. It was never my intention
to hurt any one and I hope that's clear. (Begins to hyperventilate as mucus
streams from her nostrils) I am so scared. What was that? I'm scared to
close my eyes and I'm scared to open them. I'm going to die out here.
Every night we just wait for them to come. (Breaks down and sobs)
Hmm...a little longer than one minute...where can I cut it?

ICU S&L with Mark
Kaoru's Imitation of Sarah Kay, TED (2011)
Hi everyone,
1) I will imitate in English the first minute of the TED "If I should have a daughter..." by Sarah Kay. This is a short spoken word poetry made by Sarah.
2) In terms of time on the video, it is between 00:18 and 01:27.

3) I like this talk because I just found Sara's talk amazing. I actually did not spoken word poetry before I saw this but thought it was moving, motivating, and genius.Her poem made me think or feel in new ways. After watching this I learnt that it was so important to express my feeling by my own words and spoken word poetry helped me express myself in ways I couldn't before. This inspired me in so many ways. I hope this would inspire my classmates also, that's why I finally chose this.
4) Video from TED embed code
5) Transcript
If I should have a daughter, instead of "Mom," she's gonna call me "Point B," because that way she knows that no matter what happens, at least she can always find her way to me.
And I'm going to paint solar systems on the backs of her hands so she has to learn the entire universe before she can say, "Oh, I know that like the back of my hand."
And she's going to learn that this life will hit you hard in the face, wait for you to get back up just so it can kick you in the stomach.
But getting the wind knocked out of you is the only way to remind your lungs how much they like the taste of air.
There is hurt, here, that cannot be fixed by Band-Aids or poetry.
So the first time she realizes that Wonder Woman isn't coming, I'll make sure she knows she doesn't have to wear the cape all by herself because no matter how wide you stretch your fingers, your hands will always be too small to catch all the pain you want to heal.
Believe me, I've tried. "And, baby," I'll tell her, don't keep your nose up in the air like that. I know that trick; I've done it a million times.
You're just smelling for smoke so you can follow the trail back to a burning house, so you can find the boy who lost everything in the fire to see if you can save him.

Mark's Imitation of the ending of "活着" (1994)
Hi everyone,
1) I will imitate in Chinese the last minute of the film "To live" by Zhang Yimou. The dialogue includes three characters, the father (actor Ge You), son, and mother (actress Gong Li).
2) In terms of time on the video, it is between 2:08:57 and the end.
3) I like this film because it portrays the strong bonds between members of a family despite repeated tragedies. Another reason I like it is that it includes depictions of several periods in modern Chinese history from the feudal dynastic period to the war with Japan to the Chinese Communist party revolution, including the years of the chaotic Cultural Revolution. The little boy is very cute at the end, and the scene is symbolic of China's hope for a better future after the difficult periods it went through.
4) Video from YouTube's embed code.

Mark's imitation of Jay Walker
Hi everyone,
I will imitate 0:18-1:18 of Jay Walker's English Mania TED lecture. Enjoy!
Let's talk about manias. Let's start with Beatle mania: hysterical teenagers, crying, screaming, pandemonium. Sports mania: deafening crowds, all for one idea -- get the ball in the net. Okay, religious mania: there's rapture, there's weeping, there's visions. Manias can be good. Manias can be alarming. Or manias can be deadly.
The world has a new mania. A mania for learning English. Listen as Chinese students practice their English by screaming it.
