Little Fox Anne of Green Gables Chapter 11 A Dare is Accepted
2
In the summer, Diana Berry had a party.
3
There will just be the girls in our class,
4
Anne assured Marilla, since Marilla knew that Anne had a habit of getting into trouble.
5
The girls played in the berries' garden.
6
After a while, they grew tired of all their games and were ready for mischief.
7
They soon decided to play dares,
8
which involved daring one's friends to try something risky.
9
First, Carrie Sloan dared Ruby Gillis to climb the huge willow tree that was infested with fat green caterpillars.
10
Much to everyone's surprise, Ruby bravely climbed the tree.
11
Then Josie Pie dared Jane Andrews to hop around the garden on her left foot without stopping.
12
Jane Andrews tried, but gave up at the third corner.
13
Josie Pie gloated because Jane Andrews could not do her dare.
14
Anne saw Josie Pie gloating and quickly dared Josie to walk along the top of the Berry's garden fence.
15
Walking along fences requires some skill,
16
but unfortunately, Josie Pie had a natural ability for walking on fences.
17
The girls reluctantly admired Josie's skill and bravery.
18
Josie came down flushed with victory and gave Anne a defiant look.
19
Anne tossed her red braids.
20
I don't think it's anything fantastic to walk on such a little low fence, she said.
21
I knew a girl who could walk on a rooftop.
22
I don't believe it, said Josie flatly.
23
You couldn't walk on a rooftop anyhow, she added.
24
Couldn't I, said Anne without thinking.
25
Then I dare you, said Josie sneering.
26
I dare you to climb up there and walk along the top of the Berry's Kitchen roof.
27
Anne turned pale, but she walked towards the house.
28
There was a ladder leaning against the wall.
29
Don't do it, Anne, pleaded Diana.
30
You'll fall off and be killed.
31
Never mind Josie Pie.
32
It isn't fair to dare anybody to do anything so dangerous.
33
I must do it.
34
My honor is at stake, said Anne solemnly.
35
If I am killed, you can have my pearl bead ring.
36
Anne climbed the ladder, balanced herself on the rooftop,
37
and started to walk along it.
38
She was very high.
39
Anne realized that imagination did not help much when you were walking on a roof.
40
Nevertheless, she managed to take several steps before the catastrophe came.
41
She swayed and then fell,
42
sliding off the roof and landing headfirst in a garden of vines.
43
The girls below screamed.
44
When Diana and the other girls,
45
except for Ruby Gillis who had gone into hysterics,
46
rushed around the house, They found Anne lying in the tangled vines.
47
She was very pale and limp.
48
Anne, are you dead?
49
shrieked Diana, throwing herself on her knees beside Anne.
50
Anne sat up, dizzy.
51
No, Diana, she said uncertainly.
52
I am not dead, but I think I am unconscious.
53
The girls were immensely relieved by Anne's words, especially Josie Pie.
54
When Mrs. Berry appeared, Anne tried to get to her feet,
55
but she fell back with a sharp little cry of pain.
56
What's the matter?
57
Where have you hurt yourself? demanded Mrs. Berry.
58
My ankle! gasped Anne.
59
Marilla was in the orchard when she saw Mr. and Mrs. Berry and a procession of girls coming toward the house.
60
Mr. Berry carried Anne in his arms,
61
with her head limp against his shoulder.
62
At that moment, Marilla had a revelation.
63
Before, she had admitted that she liked Anne.
64
No, that she was very fond of Anne.
65
But now she knew that Anne was dearer to her than anything on Earth.
66
Mrs. Barry, what happened?
67
Marilla gasped.
68
Mrs. Barry had never seen Marilla look so pale and anxious.
69
Anne herself answered, lifting her head.
70
Don't be frightened, Marilla.
71
I was walking on the Barry's roof and I fell off.
72
I think I sprained my ankle.
73
However, I could have broken my neck, but I didn't.
74
Let's look on the bright side.
75
Marilla felt the blood return to her face.
76
Mr. Barry carried Anne into the house.
77
Later, the doctor came and announced that Anne had broken her ankle.
78
Don't you feel sorry for me, Marilla?
79
Anne asked.
80
It was your own fault, answered Marilla.
81
That's exactly why you should feel sorry for me.
82
If I could blame somebody,
83
I would feel so much better, Anne said.
84
What would you do, Marilla,
85
if someone dared you to walk on the roof?
86
I would stay on the ground and let them dare, Marilla shot back.
87
You're strong, Marilla, but I couldn't bear Josie Pie's scorn, Anne said.
88
And I think I've been punished enough so you don't have to punish me.
89
It hurt dreadfully when the doctor set my ankle in plaster.
90
I'll miss six weeks of school,
91
and I'll miss the new lady teacher.
92
She won't be new by the time I'm at school.
93
And Gilbert, I mean everybody,
94
will get ahead of me in class.
95
Over the next six weeks, Anne had many visitors.
96
not a day passed without one
97
or more of the schoolgirls dropping in to bring her flowers
98
and books and tell her the news of Avonlea Diana
99
and most faithful friend visited every day after school even Josie Pye visited once
100
and happily realized that she had many kind friends
101
and neighbors one day after the visitors had left
102
and chatted to Marilla about the news from school the The new teacher had arrived,
103
and all the girls thought she was perfectly sweet.
104
She dressed beautifully, and her sleeve puffs were bigger than anybody else's in Avonlea.
105
On Friday mornings, Marilla, Anne said,
106
everybody has to recite a poem or a story.
107
How exciting!
108
On Friday afternoons, Miss Stacy,
109
the new teacher, takes everyone to the woods for a field day,
110
and they study ferns and flowers and birds,
111
and they have physical education exercises every morning and afternoon.
112
Mrs. Lynn says it's ridiculous,
113
but I think it's splendid.
114
I believe Miss Stacy will be a kindred spirit.
115
There's one thing that's quite clear, Anne, said Marilla.
116
Falling off the Barry's roof hasn't injured your tongue.
117
Anne of Green Gables Chapter 12 Matthew Insists on Puffed Sleeves
118
Matthew was sitting in the kitchen when Anne and her schoolmates burst into the room.
119
They were laughing happily and did not see Matthew.
120
he watched them shyly
121
and became aware there was something different about ann compared to
122
the other girls what was it he could not ask marilla she would say the only difference between ann
123
and the other girls was that they were sometimes quiet
124
while ann never was finally matthew knew the answer ann was
125
not dressed like the other girls the more he thought the more he was convinced
126
that ann had never been dressed like the other girls marilla
127
gave her plain dark dresses all in the same unvarying style all the other girls wore red
128
and blue and pink and yellow and
129
and sleeves did not look at all like the other girls
130
sleeves it must be all right he thought marilla knew best
131
and marilla was bringing her up but surely it would do no harm to let the child have one pretty dress
132
something like what Diana Barry wore Matthew decided
133
that he would get one for Anne Christmas was only two weeks away
134
and a nice new dress would be the perfect present the
135
next evening Matthew went to Carmody to buy the dress Matthew
136
decided to go to Samuel Lawson store instead of William Blair's
137
store the Cuthberts had always gone to William Blair's store
138
but William Blair's two daughters served customers there
139
and Matthew felt very shy around them he would go to
140
Lawson's where Samuel would serve him alas Matthew did not know that Samuel had a new female shop assistant
141
Miss Harris the new shop assistant at Lawson's store was dressed very smartly
142
and wore bracelets that glittered and tinkled Matthew was confused to see her
143
and all those bracelets made him even more nervous how can
144
I help you mr. Cuthbert she asked have you any garden
145
rakes stammered Matthew miss Harris looked surprised it was the middle of winter
146
and there were no leaves to be raked I think we have one
147
or two rakes left she said
148
but they're upstairs I'll check miss Harris returned with a rake
149
and asked anything else mr. Cuthbert Matthew tried again well since
150
you're asking I might buy some pumpkin seeds miss Harris had heard
151
that Matthew Cuthbert was odd she now concluded
152
that he was crazy we only keep seeds in spring she
153
explained now yes stammered the unhappy Matthew he paid for the rake While Miss Harris was counting his change,
154
he made one last desperate attempt.
155
Well, now, if it isn't too much trouble, I might get some...
156
I'd like to look at some sugar.
157
White or brown?
158
Miss Harris asked.
159
Oh, brown, said Matthew, with beads of perspiration on his forehead.
160
When Matthew got home, he hid the rake in the tool shed,
161
but he carried the sugar into Marilla.
162
brown sugar why did you get
163
that Marilla asked you know I never use it except for the porridge
164
or fruitcake it's not good sugar either William Blair doesn't usually keep sugar like
165
that I I thought it might come in handy sometime said Matthew Matthew finally decided
166
that a woman's help was needed Marilla was out of the question
167
because she would surely object to the idea of a pretty
168
dress for Anne this left mrs. Lind mrs. Lind said you
169
want me to pick out a dress for Anne of course
170
I will I'm going to Carmody tomorrow do you have anything
171
in mind no well I'll use my own judgment then thank you Rachel mumbled Matthew he continued I'm not sure
172
but I'd like the sleeves to be in the new fashion puffs of course I'll choose the very latest fashion
173
when Matthew had gone mrs. Lynn said to herself thank goodness
174
that poor girl will get to wear something decent the way Marilla dresses her is ridiculous
175
but Matthew noticed it that man is waking up after being asleep for 60 years Marilla knew
176
that something was up
177
but she didn't guess what it was until mrs. Lind brought the dress over on Christmas Eve
178
so this is why Matthew looks so mysterious Marilla shook her head
179
and has three good warm dresses
180
and anything more is just extravagant there's enough material in those
181
sleeves for another dress the puffs have been getting bigger and bigger there is biggest balloons now
182
Christmas morning came just enough snow fell to cover everything in white
183
and ran downstairs singing Merry Christmas Marilla Merry Christmas Matthew I'm
184
so glad it's a white Christmas any other kind of Christmas doesn't seem real does it Oh Matthew is
185
that for me Oh Matthew Matthew had sheepishly unfolded the dress
186
and held it out and looked at the dress in reverent silence how pretty it was,
187
with dainty frills and soft lace at the neck.
188
But the sleeves, they were magnificent.
189
It's a Christmas present for you, Anne, said Matthew shyly.
190
Why, why, Anne, don't you like it?
191
For Anne's eyes had suddenly filled with tears.
192
Like it?
193
Oh, Matthew, it's exquisite.
194
Look at those sleeves.
195
I can never thank you enough.
196
Well, let's have breakfast, interrupted Marilla.
197
I must say, Anne, I don't think you needed the dress.
198
Since Matthew has gotten it for you,
199
make sure you take care of it.
200
After breakfast, Diana came to the house.
201
I've got something for you, said Diana.
202
Here, in this box.
203
Aunt Josephine sent us a big box with many things,
204
and this is for you.
205
Anne opened the box and peeked in.
206
There was a card with,
207
To Dear Anne, Merry Christmas,
208
written on it, and a dainty pair of shoes.
209
You won't have to borrow ruby shoes now.
210
And that's good because they're two sizes too big for you, said Diana.
211
Oh, Diana, Anne exclaimed exclaimed.
212
This is too much!
213
A white Christmas at Green Gables and new shoes and a new dress with puffed sleeves.
214
What a happy day this is!

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.
