Chapter 2 The Directors of the Opera House The Opera House was famous,
2
and the directors of the Opera House were very important men.
3
It was the first week of work for the two new directors, Monsieur Armand Monchamant and Monsieur Fumain Richard.
4
In the director's office the next day, the two men talked about Joseph Bouquet.
5
It was an accident, Monsieur Armand said angrily, or Bouquet killed himself.
6
An accident?
7
Killed himself, Monsieur Fermat said.
8
Which story do you want, my friend?
9
Or do you want the story of the ghost?
10
Don't talk to me about ghosts, Monsieur Armand said.
11
We have one thousand five hundred people working for us in this opera house, and everybody is talking about the ghost.
12
They are all mad.
13
I don't want to hear about the ghost, OK?
14
Mr Furman looked at a letter on the table next to him.
15
And what are we going to do about this letter, Armand? Do, cried Monsieur Armand.
16
Why, do nothing, of course.
17
What can we do?
18
The two men read the letter again.
19
It wasn't very long. To the new directors.
20
Because you are new in the opera house, I am writing to tell you some important things.
21
Never sell tickets for box five.
22
That is my box for every opera night.
23
Madam Giry, the doorkeeper, knows all about it.
24
Also, I need money for my work in the opera house.
25
I am not expensive, and I am happy to take only 20,000 francs a month. That is all.
26
But please remember, I can be a good friend, but a bad enemy.
27
Oh, gee.
28
Don't sell tickets for box five.
29
Twenty thousand francs a month.
30
Monsieur Armand was very angry again.
31
That's the best box in the opera house, and we need the money for mine.
32
And who is this OG, eh?
33
Tell me that.' "'Opera Ghost, of course,' Monsieur Fermat said.
34
"'But you're right, Armand.
35
We can do nothing about this letter.
36
It's a joke, a bad joke.
37
Somebody thinks we are fools because we are new here.
38
There are no ghosts in the Opera House.' The two men then talked about the opera for that night.
39
It was Faust, and usually La Carlotta sang Margarita.
40
La Carlotta was Spanish and the best singer in Paris, but today La Carlotta was ill.
41
Everybody in Paris is going to be at the opera tonight, said Monsieur Armand, and our best singer is ill, suddenly.
42
She writes a letter to us just this morning.
43
She is ill.
44
She cannot sing tonight.
45
Don't get angry again, Armand, Monsieur Fermat said quickly.
46
We have Christine Daet, that young singer from Norway.
47
She can sing Margarita tonight.
48
She has a good voice.
49
But she's so young and nobody knows her.
50
Nobody wants to listen to a new singer.
51
Wait and see.
52
Perhaps Diag can sing better than La Carlotta. Who knows?
53
Thank you.
54
Thank you.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
