2
this is the story of a little girl called winnie who discovers that fantastic beasts  might be more than just make-believe
3

4
there's a huge tapestry in winnie's house
5
it's very old as old as the town that she lives in
6
it tells the tale of the fearsome beasts  that used to live in the woods all around
7
winnie touched the sharp teeth of the dragon do  you think that they'll ever come back she asked
8
no said her parents our grandparents fought a great  battle and now they're gone
9
that night like most nights  winnie dreamed of dragons
10
and that night like most nights she  woke to a boom and a rumble and a flash
11
the dragons are back she cried i can hear them snoring but her  parents called it's just a storm
12
go back to sleep so winnie slept
13
but her dreams were still full of dragons and  the next day she practiced with her wooden sword
14
just in case a dragon comes she said
15
suddenly the wind started to howl
16
winnie come in now called her mum
17
there's a storm coming winnie looked up at the sky
18
it didn't look stormy but then a huge  gust of wind swept her up into the air tumbling and twisting over the treetops
19
help me she cried she was soaring over the  hills when she started to fall down and down she went until poosh
20
she landed on the back of an actual dragon
21
the dragon set her down  gently in a far away clearing
22
you do still exist she gasped
23
sorry if i uh swept you off your feet  sometimes i flap my wings too hard
24
the next moment they heard a loud  rumbling and shuffling through the trees
25
aha said the dragon you could meet my friends too
26
winnie looked up at three extraordinary faces
27
i've seen you on the tapestry she cried
28
but the creatures just frowned at her
29
why did you bring her here growled the lion
30
you know humans always hurt us said the griffin
31
look she has a sword said the tree man
32
winnie threw down her sword i'd never hurt you
33
don't mind them said the dragon
34
it's just we're the last of our  kind so we have to stay secret
35
i only want to be friends said winnie
36
so for the rest of the day she did what friends do
37
she decorated the tree man with flowers
38
she collected the tastiest apples for the griffin and as the sun set she gave the  winged lion's back a good long scratch
39
where do you sleep she asked
40
we don't said the lion
41
at night time humans are asleep
42
and that's when we can go wild have  a beastly bash and a hullabaloo
43
as the creatures danced winnie gasped in amazement it was the noises she heard every night
44
winnie danced with her fantastical  friends till the forest shook
45
then suddenly the sound of horses hooves  echoed through the hills and a voice shouted
46
winnie where are you that's my dad i have to go home now
47
but you can't go home said the griffin you have  to stay with us now or the humans will find us
48
winnie was horrified we're the last ones left
49
said the tree man so we have to be kept secret
50
can  you keep a secret ask the dragon doubtfully
51
winnie stood tall of course i can you're my friends and i'd never let you down
52
in that case said the griffin we'll take you  home but we shall have to be quiet as mice
53
tree man kept lookout and  they snuck through the valleys until they saw the town through the trees
54
then it was time to say goodbye
55
i'll keep your secret forever said winnie
56
winnies parents searched for hours
57
suddenly in the distance they  saw a light come on in their home
58
perhaps she's back they cried
59
and she was where have you been we've been so worried
60
but winnie was too tired to say
61
i think it's bedtime said her mum
62
that night like most nights they all  woke to a boom and a rumble and a flash
63
perhaps the dragons are back cried  her parents we can hear them snoring
64
it's just a storm said winnie go back to sleep
65
so they slept and their  dreams were full of dragons
66
winnie was right those amazing  creatures did live in the forest
67
now away you go to bed and remember if you  wake to a boom and a rumble and a flash
68
it's probably just a storm so whether  you're a dragon a griffin a winged lion or just a good old-fashioned human  sleep well you fantastic beasts

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
