The Enchanted Castle.
2
Chapter 1.
3
The Children Get Lost.
4
There were three children, Gerald, Jimmy, and Kathleen.
5
and they were at school in a little town in England.
6
The boys were at one school, of course, and their sister was at another.
7
They used to see each other only on weekends, so they looked forward to going home for summer vacation.
8
But one year, they couldn't go home because someone in the family had the measles.
9
That disease was easy to catch.
10
After many letters back and forth, their parents agreed to let them stay at Kathleen's school.
11
All the girls had gone home.
12
All the teachers had left except the French teacher.
13
Now the boys had arrived and they were drinking tea with Kathleen.
14
We need a summer project, she said.
15
Let's write a book.
16
Too much work, said Gerald, who was the oldest.
17
We'll do something outdoors.
18
A cave would be good.
19
We could eat our meals there.
20
There aren't any caves, said Jimmy, who liked to say no. And I doubt Mademoiselle will let us go out by ourselves.
21
Well, I'm going to talk to her, said Gerald.
22
He washed his hands and combed his hair before he knocked on Mademoiselle's door.
23
She was reading.
24
Excuse me, Mademoiselle, said Gerald politely.
25
I thought I'd say hello because you're in charge of us.
26
Mademoiselle was charmed by the young man's manners.
27
Can I do anything for you?
28
No, thank you.
29
We don't want to be any trouble.
30
In fact, we would cause less trouble tomorrow if we spent all day outside.
31
Mademoiselle smiled.
32
I know what you really want.
33
You want to be left alone.
34
Gerald laughed, and Mademoiselle did too.
35
Go ahead, she said.
36
I won't stand in your way.
37
The next morning, the children went off on their adventure.
38
It was a beautiful day.
39
We're sure to find something, said Gerald.
40
A boy at school said that there was a cave near here, but he said there's an enchanted castle too, so none of that may be true.
41
The children walked along the road, which was very hot.
42
They decided to share a drink from their lunch.
43
Soon they came to a fork in the road.
44
They went right and came to another fork and then another.
45
We're completely lost, said Kathleen.
46
What fun!
47
Now the trees arched overhead, and bushes lined the banks along the road.
48
Let's have some lunch, said Jimmy.
49
As they sat down, Gerald leaned against some bushes.
50
Oh my, he cried.
51
The bushes gave way, and he almost fell backward.
52
The other two pulled back the bushes.
53
There was a large hole in the bank.
54
It's a cave, said Gerald.
55
I'm going in.
56
Oh, don't, said Kathleen.
57
There might be snakes.
58
But Gerald was already crawling through the hole.
59
It is a cave.
60
Come look.
61
Kathleen and Jimmy followed him down the hole.
62
They walked a short distance and came out into the sunshine.
63
How wonderful, said Kathleen.
64
Ahead of them was a tall arch framed with ferns and grasses.
65
It looks like a train tunnel, said Jimmy.
66
It's the entrance to the enchanted castle, said Kathleen.
67
Oh, don't be silly.
68
Gerald led the way to the arch.
69
There's a set of steps, said Jimmy.
70
They followed Gerald down the steps, walking slowly through the darkness.
71
Up ahead was a patch of daylight.
72
The children passed under another arch and out onto a terrace.
73
Below them was a lake with an island.
74
Beyond that, marble statues gleamed among the trees.
75
White towers stood out against the sky.
76
It's the Enchanted Castle! cried Kathleen.
77
The Enchanted Castle, Chapter 2,
78
A Sleeping Princess Gerald and Kathleen were certain that the White Towers belonged to an enchanted castle.
79
Jimmy was not so sure.
80
They walked through a beautiful garden until they came to a maze.
81
They tried to find the center of the maze, but it was impossible.
82
What's that?
83
Gerald picked up a red thread on the ground.
84
One end was tied to a thimble, but the other end...
85
There is no other end, Gerald realized.
86
Maybe it leads to something.
87
I think the gardener put it there, said Jimmy.
88
Look at the crown on that thimble, said Kathleen.
89
Do you think a gardener would have a princess's silver thimble?
90
Let's follow the thread.
91
Gerald walked forward, winding the thread around his fingers as he went.
92
The thread led them into the middle of the maze.
93
There they found a circle of green lawn with a sundial in the center.
94
All around the edge of the circle was a marble seat.
95
The thread ran across the lawn.
96
It ended in the hand of someone sleeping on the seat.
97
It's an enchanted princess, said Gerald Her clothes are so old-fashioned,
98
said Kathleen She must have fallen asleep a hundred years ago She isn't really a princess,
99
said Jimmy Gerald and Kathleen laughed They didn't care what Jimmy said Every part of the adventure,
100
the cave, the maze, the thread, felt magical to them.
101
Lift up the veil, Gerald, whispered Kathleen.
102
If she's beautiful, we'll know she's a princess.
103
Lift it yourself, he said.
104
Kathleen gently lifted the veil.
105
Isn't she lovely?
106
Not too bad, Gerald muttered.
107
Now, Gerald, you must wake the princess, said Kathleen.
108
She's not a princess, insisted Jimmy.
109
She's only a little girl dressed up like a princess.
110
Look at how long her dress is.
111
She won't be any taller than Gerald when she stands up.
112
Kathleen ignored him.
113
Gerald, you're the oldest.
114
You have to kiss her awake.
115
Not me, cried Gerald.
116
She'll slap me the minute she wakes up.
117
Then I'll do it, said Kathleen.
118
But I don't think it'll do any good.
119
And it didn't.
120
I don't mind kissing her, said Jimmy.
121
I'm not afraid like some people.
122
With that, Jimmy planted a loud kiss on the princess's cheek.
123
The three children stood waiting to see what would happen next.
124
The princess opened her large, dark eyes.
125
She stretched her arms and yawned.
126
Then she said, Ha ha!
127
So, the hundred years are over?
128
Which one of you is my hero?
129
I am, said Jimmy.
130
My prince.
131
The princess held out her hand, and Jimmy shook it hard.
132
But you aren't really a princess, are you?
133
He asked.
134
Of course I am.
135
Look at my crown.
136
She pulled aside her veil to reveal a crown of diamonds.
137
How did you ever get past the dragons?
138
Gerald ignored her question.
139
Then this really is an enchanted castle? Of course it is!
140
Don't be stupid!
141
The princess stood up and her dress fell in waves around her feet.
142
I told you her dress would be too long, said Jimmy.
143
It must have grown over the years, said the princess.
144
Let's go back to the castle and I'll show you all my lovely jewels.
145
Would you like that?
146
Yes, said Gerald. But... But what?
147
The princess sounded impatient. But we're awfully hungry.
148
We never got to eat our lunch.
149
The princess looked at the sundial.
150
It was three o'clock.
151
You've had nothing to eat for hours.
152
But think of me.
153
I've had nothing to eat for a hundred years.
154
The Enchanted Castle, Chapter 3,
155
Inside the Treasure Room The children walked in a slow parade toward the castle.
156
They were sure that they had stepped into a fairy tale.
157
At last they arrived in a large hall filled with wooden benches and tables.
158
Suits of armor and old flags stood against the walls.
159
Wait here, said the princess.
160
And don't talk while I'm gone.
161
This castle is full of magic.
162
I don't know what will happen if you talk.
163
Jimmy wanted to say that he didn't think anything would happen.
164
But he didn't.
165
The princess returned carrying a tray.
166
I could only find bread and cheese and water, but it doesn't matter.
167
They'll turn into anything you like, unless you have some dreadful secret fault.
168
What would you like to eat?
169
Roast chicken, said Kathleen.
170
She watched as the princess cut some bread and laid it on a plate.
171
Green peas?
172
The princess cut a piece of cheese and laid it beside the bread.
173
Then she handed the plate to Kathleen.
174
The boys asked for roast beef and cabbage.
175
Kathleen cut the bread as if she was eating roast chicken.
176
But it still looked and tasted like bread.
177
She wondered what her secret fault was as she watched the boys eat their food.
178
This is a game, isn't it? said Jimmy.
179
Pretending we're eating roast beef? But it is beef.
180
Look at it.
181
The princess opened her eyes very wide.
182
Of course, said Jimmy weakly.
183
I was just joking.
184
Everyone was very hungry.
185
They ate and drank and felt much better.
186
Now, if you're finished, said the princess, I'll show you my treasures.
187
They followed her down a long hall to some steps.
188
Underneath the steps was a door hidden by a tapestry.
189
This door leads to my private apartments, said the princess.
190
She guided them through a dark corridor until they came to a room.
191
The princess went in first and threw open the shutters.
192
The small domed room was filled with light.
193
Its blue ceiling was painted with gold stars.
194
But the room was empty. Where are the treasures?
195
Kathleen asked politely.
196
Don't you see them?
197
Said the princess.
198
No!
199
Said Jimmy.
200
And don't try fooling us again.
201
There's nothing here.
202
Then I guess I'll have to say the charm, said the princess.
203
Close your eyes, please.
204
The princess chanted some nonsense words.
205
There was a creaking, rustling sound.
206
Open your eyes now.
207
The children could not believe their eyes.
208
Silver dishes, gold cups, and diamond crowns lined shelves around the room.
209
All around were piles of necklaces, rings, and bracelets.
210
Oh, my, Gerald whispered.
211
Now do you believe I can do magic? asked the princess.
212
Yes, said Kathleen. May we touch?
213
Go ahead.
214
The children had great fun playing with the treasures.
215
Suddenly Kathleen had a thought.
216
Do your parents know you're awake?
217
Oh, uh...
218
Yes, said the princess.
219
I told them when I got the bread and cheese.
220
They're busy right now.
221
Here, try this bracelet.
222
What's this old stuff over here? asked Jimmy.
223
Those are all magic things, said the princess.
224
What does this ring do? asked Gerald.
225
It makes you invisible.
226
I'd like to try that, said Jimmy.
227
No!
228
I'm the only one who can touch these things.
229
If anyone else tries, they'll lose their magic.
230
Close your eyes and I'll demonstrate the ring.
231
The children closed their eyes.
232
Now, count to 50.
233
Gerald counted aloud.
234
Everyone could hear a creaking rustling sound.
235
49, 50.
236
The children opened their eyes.
237
The jewels had vanished, and so had the princess.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
