Chapter 1.
3
Guitar and Drums My friend Kate loves music.
4
She's always singing and playing her guitar, and she's good, too.
5
She usually plays in her bedroom, but today she's going to play in the town square.
6
She's going to play in front of people and she's afraid.
7
So I'm going with her.
8
My name's Lucy and I'm Kate's best friend.
9
We arrive at the square and there are lots of people.
10
Near the flower shop there is a living statue.
11
She is silver from head to foot.
12
Her face, her hat, her coat, everything.
13
She isn't moving, I say.
14
How does she do that?
15
The man from the flower shop hears me.
16
Oh, the silver statue never moves, he laughs.
17
She stands there every day, from early morning to late afternoon.
18
We walk across the square and stop near a cafe.
19
I'm going to sing here, I think, says Kate.
20
She gets her guitar out of its bag.
21
Good luck, I say.
22
Thanks.
23
Kate begins to sing and play her guitar.
24
She's good, but she's usually better.
25
She's afraid, I can see.
26
Perhaps she's thinking, are people going to like my music?
27
But some people stop and listen, and soon, Kate is happier.
28
She begins to play better.
29
Then, suddenly, everything changes.
30
I hear something new.
31
Drums.
32
Loud drums.
33
A young man is sitting in the square and he's playing drums on three white buckets.
34
Kate sings louder, but it doesn't help.
35
Nobody is listening now because nobody can hear her over the drums.
36
Kate stops playing.
37
How can I play over that terrible noise? she asks angrily.
38
It isn't terrible.
39
He's a good drummer, but I can't say that now.
40
Kate puts her guitar in its bag.
41
Let's have a drink at the cafe and wait, I say.
42
At the cafe, Kate says, Those drums are loud.
43
The woman from the cafe smiles.
44
Oh, that's Joe, she says.
45
He plays here every Saturday.
46
We finish our drinks and wait, but the drums don't stop.
47
Let's go, Kate says.
48
We can come back next week.
49
The silver statue watches us.
50
Of course she says nothing.
51
Chapter 2.
52
An Early Morning The next week, Kate wants to get an earlier bus.
53
I don't know, Kate.
54
I don't like getting up early on a Saturday, I tell her.
55
But I want to arrive at the square before that drummer, and I need you there.
56
Please, Lucy.
57
Okay, I say.
58
Of course, the silver statue is there when we arrive.
59
Then we look across the square.
60
Someone is sitting near the cafe.
61
It's Joe, with his drums.
62
Look, says Kate.
63
He's here early too.
64
She begins walking fast across the square.
65
Wait, Kate, I say, but she doesn't listen to me.
66
You're playing the drums here again, Kate says.
67
Joe looks up and says, I always play here on a Saturday.
68
But you're very loud, says Kate angrily.
69
I want to help.
70
Perhaps you can play first, I say to Joe. And then...
71
But now Joe is angry too.
72
This isn't your square, he tells Kate.
73
And then he begins playing.
74
And that isn't music, Kate shouts over the drums.
75
But Joe closes his eyes and plays.
76
Let's go to the cafe again, I say.
77
We can wait there.
78
But Kate is walking away.
79
Next week is going to be different, she says.
80
Chapter 3 Louder and Louder The next Saturday, we're back in the square.
81
The silver statue is there, of course, but we don't see Joe today.
82
Kate has her guitar, but that isn't all.
83
She has an amp and a microphone too.
84
They're from our school.
85
When Kate begins playing this time, the music is louder.
86
People stop and listen.
87
They like her.
88
I know it.
89
Some people give her money.
90
They put it in her guitar bag.
91
But when Kate is singing her third song, we suddenly hear drums.
92
We look across the square and see Joe.
93
This time, Kate is ready.
94
She doesn't stop playing, no. She smiles and turns up the amp.
95
That's better.
96
But then Jo begins playing louder too.
97
Kate turns up the amp again.
98
Now her music is very loud.
99
But wait, the drums are louder now too.
100
Some of the people in the square begin walking away.
101
People can't hear Kate's music very well because Joe's drums are very loud.
102
And they can't hear the drums well because Kate's song is loud too.
103
Together, they're making a terrible noise.
104
Suddenly, there is a shout.
105
Stop!
106
Chapter 4 A Note Stop!
107
Someone shouts again.
108
It's the woman from the cafe.
109
Kate and Joe stop playing and look back at her.
110
Nobody wants to hear this, the woman says.
111
She's right.
112
Nobody is sitting at the tables in front of her cafe now.
113
Kate and Jo walk across to the woman.
114
Sorry, they say.
115
OK, says the woman.
116
Jo, you can play first for 30 minutes.
117
She looks at Kate.
118
Then you can play.
119
All right?
120
Yes, they say.
121
Kate and I sit at the cafe for the next 30 minutes.
122
Of course, we can hear the drums.
123
But I can see something too.
124
Under the table, Kate's foot is moving.
125
She likes Joe's drums.
126
Soon, Joe finishes, and Kate begins playing.
127
She sings well, and Joe listens to her.
128
After the last song, Kate and I take the money from her guitar bag.
129
Wait, I say, what's this?
130
It's a note for you.
131
What does it say? asks Kate.
132
Sorry about today.
133
Your music is good.
134
Perhaps we can play together next week?
135
11am?
136
I look up.
137
It's from Joe, I think.
138
On the bus home, I have only one question.
139
So, are you going to meet Joe next week?
140
Perhaps, Kate says.
141
He is an okay drummer.
142
I want to shout, and he has nice eyes.
143
But for Kate, music is everything.
144
Chapter 5.
145
Silver Paint.
146
The next Saturday, I arrive at the square after Kate.
147
I find her with Joe near the cafe.
148
They're talking before they play together.
149
Kate sees me and says, You're here!
150
Thanks, Lucy.
151
That's okay, I say.
152
I want to hear this.
153
Kate begins playing and singing.
154
Then Joe begins drumming.
155
Kate plays this song a lot.
156
But it's different with the drums.
157
I like it.
158
Suddenly, I see something.
159
Joe's bag is open and there's a note in it.
160
The note says, Sorry about today.
161
Your music is good.
162
Perhaps we can play together next week, 11am?
163
This note and Kate's note are the same.
164
And Joe's note is not from Kate.
165
So who are the notes from?
166
Then I see some paint on the note.
167
Silver paint.
168
Just then, I hear something from across the square.
169
Some people are laughing.
170
They're watching the silver statue.
171
First, her foot moves Then one leg Two legs Her arms Then her body
172
Look!
173
Someone shouts She's moving!
174
I look at the silver statue And now she is dancing She's dancing to Kate and Joe's music
175
Soon, lots of people are laughing and dancing too.
176
Kate and Jo's music is very good, and everyone is having a good time.
177
When the song finishes, the people all shout for more.
178
Kate and Joe smile, and begin a new song.
179
This time, the silver statue doesn't move.
180
She's a statue again.
181
Kate and Joe play two more songs.
182
When they stop, everyone wants to talk to them.
183
Come back next week, one woman says.
184
I want the silver statue to dance again.
185
And I want to hear that music again, says her friend.
186
The woman from the cafe is much happier now.
187
You two are great, she tells Kate and Joe.
188
Are you going to play together again?
189
I'd like that, says Kate.
190
Me too, Joe says.
191
He smiles at Kate.
192
And I'm sorry about last week.
193
I'm sorry too, says Kate.
194
Do you want to talk about new songs one day this week?
195
I can give you my number.
196
Yes, let's do that, Joe says.
197
And perhaps we can meet at the cafe one evening.
198
Kate smiles back at him.
199
Yes.
200
I'd like that.
201
She sees my face.
202
What?
203
She says.
204
Music isn't everything, you know, Lucy.
205
Kate and Joe begin talking excitedly again.
206
When they play music together, it's very good.
207
And they're going to be good friends, I think.
208
We walk in front of the silver statue.
209
And I think about the notes.
210
I look up at her and see a little smile on her face.
211
I'm not going to tell Kate and Joe about the notes.
212
That's our secret.
213
Me and the silver statue.
214

215

216
Thank you.
217
Thank you.
218

حول هذا الدرس
أنت تتدرب على اللغة الإنجليزية باستخدام "The silver statue" مع تقنية الـ Shadowing.
ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟
التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
