Porque é que os Leitores Graduados Funcionam

A investigação confirma que a leitura extensiva é uma das formas mais eficazes de construir vocabulário e melhorar a fluência. Os leitores graduados ajustam a dificuldade do texto ao seu nível CEFR, para que cada página seja suficientemente desafiadora para aprender, mas suficientemente fácil para desfrutar. Cada livro inclui um dicionário ao lado do texto, exercícios por capítulo e prática de vocabulário online — tudo o que precisa num só pacote.

Formatos: e-book, capa mole e superaudiolivro

As nossas leituras graduadas são publicadas em vários formatos. O texto, o nível CEFR e o glossário são iguais em todos — só muda a forma de ler. Escolha o que combina com o seu dia: o e-book no telefone a caminho do trabalho, papel e lápis à secretária ou o superaudiolivro quando quiser ler e ouvir ao mesmo tempo.

E-book (EPUB e PDF). Descarrega os dois ficheiros logo após a compra e lê num leitor de e-books, no telefone, no tablet ou no computador. As palavras difíceis têm a tradução numa nota que se abre com um toque: um toque e volta à história, sem procurar no dicionário. Cada capítulo termina com exercícios de vocabulário, e um link leva a exercícios gratuitos online com as mesmas palavras.

Capa mole. Um livro clássico de capa mole, impresso a pedido e enviado pelo correio. O glossário está na margem, mesmo ao lado da palavra que explica, por isso nunca precisa de virar a página. Os capítulos terminam com palavras cruzadas e exercícios de vocabulário, e os códigos QR levam-no, pelo telefone, aos exercícios online. Uma boa escolha se gosta de escrever nos livros ou quer fazer uma pausa do digital.

Formatos nesta lista (68 livros): E-book: 68 · Capa mole: 60 · Superaudiolivro: 68.

O superaudiolivro: ler, ouvir e consultar o significado das palavras ao mesmo tempo

Um superaudiolivro é um audiolivro em formato karaoke. Um narrador lê o livro em voz alta enquanto tem à sua frente o mesmo texto, por onde um marcador avança palavra por palavra. Sabe sempre qual é a palavra que ouve, por isso nunca se perde — mesmo quando o narrador fala mais depressa do que lê. Os ouvidos mostram aos olhos como soa uma palavra escrita, os olhos mostram aos ouvidos como se escreve o que ouvem — e os dois caminhos fixam as mesmas palavras ao mesmo tempo.

A diferença nota-se sobretudo quando surge uma palavra desconhecida. Num audiolivro comum, desaparece num segundo; num superaudiolivro, fica ao seu alcance: as palavras do glossário estão marcadas a cor e basta manter uma pressionada para ver a tradução na sua língua. Confirma o significado, continua a ouvir e não perde o fio à meada. Com um controlo deslizante, ajusta a velocidade do narrador entre 0,5× e 1,5×: no início abranda para apanhar cada sílaba e, com o tempo, acelera até ao ritmo natural da fala. As palavras que encontra durante a leitura voltam depois em exercícios curtos na aplicação, como umas minipalavras cruzadas ou formar uma palavra a partir das letras.

Ler enquanto se ouve tem bom apoio na investigação. Num programa canadiano descrito por Lightbown e colegas (2002), crianças que durante três anos aprenderam inglês apenas desta forma — lendo livros enquanto ouviam as respetivas gravações — compreendiam a língua tão bem ou melhor do que os colegas com aulas tradicionais. Waring e Takaki (2003) mostraram que é preciso encontrar uma palavra pelo menos oito vezes para ter sequer 50% de probabilidade de a reconhecer três meses depois. Voltar a ouvir um capítulo dá-lhe exatamente esses encontros extra com as mesmas palavras, sem precisar de um texto novo.

Nos níveis A1 e A2, o superaudiolivro ajuda a ligar a ortografia à pronúncia — o que é especialmente útil em línguas que não se leem como se escrevem ou que usam outro alfabeto. Em B1 e B2, acompanha-o ao ritmo da fala real, para que se habitue a ouvir com fluência e deixe de parar a cada frase. Aos leitores avançados, o narrador muitas vezes não faz falta — por isso decide sempre quando o ligar e quando ler em silêncio.

O superaudiolivro funciona na aplicação Pentecost ou no navegador, no telefone, no tablet e no computador. Pode juntá-lo a um e-book: na página do livro, marque «Adicionar o audiolivro» no cartão do e-book; se já tiver o e-book, pode comprar a gravação à parte. Com o acesso ilimitado, ouve sem limite todos os superaudiolivros gravados e, todos os meses, pode desbloquear a gravação de um livro que ainda não a tem — é gravada para si e a aplicação avisa quando estiver pronta. O filtro Audiolivro mostra os títulos com gravação, e pode ouvir uma amostra gratuita sem criar conta.

Sobre os escritores e tradutores

Os escritores clássicos desta lista vêm primeiro; os editores da Pentecost que adaptaram estes leitores seguem no bloco seguinte.

  • Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900–1944) was a French writer and aviator who drew on his own flying adventures. In 1944 his plane vanished over the Mediterranean during a reconnaissance flight, and the wreckage was only found more than half a century later.
  • Arthur Conan Doyle: Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) was a Scottish physician and writer, the creator of Sherlock Holmes. The brilliant detective was modelled on his university teacher, Dr. Joseph Bell, famous for his razor-sharp powers of observation.
  • George Orwell: George Orwell (1903–1950) was the pen name of Eric Arthur Blair, an English writer who fought in the Spanish Civil War. He coined terms such as "Big Brother" and "Newspeak," and his name gave us the adjective "Orwellian."
  • Jane Austen: Jane Austen (1775–1817) was an English novelist whose books were published anonymously in her lifetime, signed only "By a Lady." She completed just six novels, and today her portrait appears on the British £10 note.
  • Jules Verne: Jules Verne (1828–1905) was a French writer known as the father of science fiction and one of the most translated authors in the world. In his novels he foresaw submarines and space travel long before they existed.
  • Lewis Carroll: Lewis Carroll (1832–1898) was the pen name of Charles Dodgson, an Oxford mathematician and logician. He invented the story of Alice during a boat trip, to entertain a real little girl named Alice Liddell.

Tradutores e editores

Os editores da Pentecost adaptam o vocabulário e as notas para que a história se mantenha clara no seu nível.

  • Aino Snow: Aino Snow adapts Finnish fiction for English-speaking readers in the graded-reader series. Finnish cases and consonant gradation get short, reusable glosses instead of a grammar essay on every page. She prefers footnotes that point forward—hinting that a form will return—so readers start to recognise patterns.
  • Angela Borderkeeper: Angela Borderkeeper adapts German-language stories for English readers who are building vocabulary through extensive reading. She balances literal clarity with readable English, especially where German stacks nouns or uses modal particles that do not map neatly. Her side notes focus on collocations learners will meet again in real newspapers and podcasts.
  • Aniela Pogranicznik: Aniela Pogranicznik przygotowuje polskie opracowania tekstów niemieckich w serii dla samouków. Zwraca uwagę na to, by zdania były krótkie tam, gdzie trzeba, ale żeby nie straciły naturalnego szyku — szczególnie w scenach dialogowych. Często wraca do swoich notatek z kursów dla nauczycieli, gdy układa glosariusze i przypisy do trudniejszych zwrotów.
  • Catherine Thief: Catherine Thief edits English support layers for Portuguese originals, comparing European and Brazilian variants when the source mixes them. She prefers one clear editorial choice per title rather than hedging in every footnote. She reads aloud to catch phrasing that still sounds like translationese.
  • Christine Guardian: Christine Guardian edits graded-reader adaptations of French fiction for English-speaking adults. She keeps an eye on register—literary French can sound stiff in English if you translate every clause—and prefers footnotes that support the scene rather than pause it. She still reads long-form journalism in French to stay close to how people actually write today.
  • Clara Fieldlove: Clara Fieldlove edits English-language scaffolding around Spanish narratives for the extensive-reading list. She steers clear of over-literal cognates that mislead beginners and prefers short glosses tied to the immediate context. She has a soft spot for dialogue-heavy chapters where rhythm matters as much as vocabulary.
  • Edwina Finbow: Edwina Finbow edits English-facing material for Icelandic fiction in the graded-reader programme. Icelandic inflection and compound formation get one clear gloss at first occurrence, then lighter reminders. She likes crime and family drama where everyday vocabulary does most of the storytelling work.
  • Grace Earthland: Grace Earthland prepares English commentary for Norwegian texts in the graded-reader programme. Norwegian’s compact clauses can read abrupt in English; she smooths the seams while keeping the emotional temperature of the scene. She coordinates closely with whoever writes the chapter exercises so examples match the chapter’s new items.
  • Greta Thunderhill: Greta Thunderhill adapts Swedish fiction for English-speaking learners using the Pentecost graded format. She keeps an eye on compound words that look long but are common in Swedish, and explains them once where they recur. She likes endings where the payoff is emotional rather than lexical—those need the lightest touch in the notes.
  • Katarzyna Złodziej: Katarzyna Złodziej przygotowuje polskie teksty towarzyszące portugalskojęzycznej beletrystyce w serii na różne poziomy CEFR. Bacznie rozróżnia wariant europejski i brazylijski, gdy w oryginale ma to znaczenie. W pracy redakcyjnej woli jedną jasną decyzję niż pięć kompromisów, które rozmywają głos narratora.
  • Klara Linden: Klara Linden adapts Czech fiction for English-speaking readers in the Pentecost graded line. Seven cases and verb aspect carry what English does with prepositions and auxiliaries; she glosses an aspect pair once and lets the story repeat it. She points out where Czech word order carries the emphasis English would mark with stress.
  • Klara Polanowicz: Klara Polanowicz tłumaczy i upraszcza hiszpańskojęzyczne narracje dla polskich czytelników w serii lektur gradowanych. Często pracuje nad rejestrem: hiszpański z Ameryki Łacińskiej i z Półwyspu wymaga innych decyzji po polsku. W przypisach stawia na krótkość i kontekst, żeby słownik nie zasłaniał fabuły.
  • Krystyna Strażnik: Krystyna Strażnik od lat zajmuje się przekładem i redakcją tekstów literackich z francuskiego na polski dla dorosłych czytelników. W pracy nad wersjami uproszczonymi pilnuje, by poziom słownictwa zgadzał się z etykietą CEFR, a jednocześnie nie gubił się humor ani rytm dialogów. Prywatnie dużo czyta współczesną prozę francuskojęzyczną i chętnie poleca tytuły, które dobrze brzmią także po polsku.
  • Małgorzata Strzecharz: Małgorzata Strzecharz redaguje polskie wersje uproszczonych lektur do nauki angielskiego — od poziomów początkowych po średniozaawansowane. Łączy doświadczenie szkolne z pracą przy materiałach do czytania ekstensywnego: ważne jest dla niej, żeby bohaterowie nie brzmieli jak sztucznie uproszczone manekiny. Po godzinach i tak sięga po anglojęzyczne kryminały, bo lubi sprawdzać, jak brzmi żywy, współczesny idiom.
  • Margarete Reetdachdeckerin: Margarete Reetdachdeckerin verantwortet die deutsche Bearbeitung begleitender Texte zu englischsprachigen Lektüren der gestuften Reihe. Sie erklärt Phrasal verbs und idiomatische Kurzformen so, dass sie im Kapitel wiedererkennbar werden, ohne dass jede Seite zur Grammatiktafel wird. Sie liest laut, wenn ein Dialog noch nach Übungsbuch klingt.
  • Marie Bender: Marie Bender adapts Polish literary texts for English speakers learning Polish through parallel reading and footnoted editions. She explains case endings and aspect pairs in short, plain English, then lets the Polish carry the voice of the narrator. She reads each chapter twice: once for accuracy, once for pace.
  • Mary Guide: Mary Guide edits English-facing material for Japanese originals in the series. She explains honorifics and sentence-final particles in plain English without turning every line into a lecture. She still listens to casual Japanese podcasts to keep colloquial markers feeling current in the notes.
  • Nora Harper: Nora Harper edits the English notes for Irish texts in the extensive-reading list. Initial mutations hide the form a learner would look up, so her first gloss gives the plain word beside the one on the page. She keeps the “tá … ag” way of owning things apart from the copula, because English “is” blurs both.
  • Pauline Bird: Pauline Bird adapts Chinese-language fiction for English readers in the graded-reader line. She helps decide when to gloss a measure word, a place name, or a four-character idiom, and when context can carry the load. She likes contemporary urban settings because they recycle high-frequency vocabulary in natural ways.
  • Rita Mounts: Rita Mounts works on English notes and simplified renderings for Italian fiction in the graded series. She watches out for regional markers—north versus south—that English readers might miss without a light gloss. Her goal is that someone on a commute can follow the plot without stopping every line.
  • Ruta Amber: Ruta Amber prepares the English commentary for Lithuanian texts in the graded-reader programme. Lithuanian leans on participles where English would open a new clause, so she unpacks the first few and then trusts repetition. She notes the diminutives that carry affection rather than size, which a literal gloss loses.
  • Sophie Stay-Maggot: Sophie Stay-Maggot works on English notes for Russian fiction in the graded series. She balances literary archaism with the labelled CEFR level, sometimes marking a form as “recognition only” so readers are not asked to produce it too early. She pays extra attention to names, patronymics, and diminutives that carry social information.
  • Theresa White: Theresa White edits English support text for Hebrew originals in the extensive-reading list. She distinguishes modern Israeli usage from biblical echoes when it matters for comprehension, and keeps glosses short enough not to bury the plot. She coordinates Hebrew spelling and vocalisation choices across a whole book so they stay consistent.
  • Мария Гибкая: Мария Гибкая работает с польскими падежными цепочками так, чтобы они подкрепляли сюжет, а не отвлекали от него. В сносках — минимальный парадигматический набор и один-два примера; задания строго на формы, встреченные в тексте. Перед печатью она сверяет падежные подсказки с фактическими формами в тексте, чтобы не осталось «висячих» ссылок на несуществующие окончания.

Cada livro está disponível como ebook (EPUB e PDF) e em papel. Muitos títulos também como audiolivro: um narrador lê no aplicativo enquanto cada palavra se acende, como no karaokê.
