1
A visit to Cairo's Egyptian Museum helps bring the country's many ancient sites to life.
2
Along with the Grand Egyptian Museum at Giza, this museum shows off the best collection of ancient Egyptian art anywhere.
3
The core of the collection, art from the age of the pharaohs, dates from about 3 ,000 to 1 ,000 B .C.
4
Nearly everything filling these old halls is funerary art, art designed to help save the souls of the pharaohs statues filled with symbolism,
5
written prayers, and offerings to deal with the gods and help assure a happy transition into the afterlife.
6
This ancient art is so well -preserved because most of it was hidden away for 4 ,000 years, dark and dry, in tombs.
7
This portrayal of geese from 2 ,500 B .C is perhaps the oldest surviving painting.
8
This seated scribe recalls the importance of the educated elite in the court of an often illiterate king.
9
In this couple, a husband and wife was also found in a tomb.
10
It's all art for the dead, locked up until rediscovered in modern times.
11
Many mummies patiently await your visit.
12
Ancient Egyptians preserved bodies through a complex process of mummification in hopes
13
that the soul could re -inhabit it in the next world.
14
And the coffins were elaborately painted with an inventory of things that hopefully would accompany the body, and with prayers, to be sure, all went as planned.
15
The art looks essentially the same from century to century.
16
A remarkable thing about ancient Egyptian art, and society as a whole, was its stability.
17
For 2 ,000 years, from 3 ,000 to 1 ,000 B .C., Relative to other times and other cultures, very little changed.
18
Religion permeated Egyptian society.
19
As long as things were going reasonably well, the gods were happy, and it was status quo.
20
Every year, the Nile would flood, bringing water and fertile silk to the land.
21
When the gods are happy, the people have food, and you don't change things.
22
And the pharaoh was considered a god.
23
If your leader is a god, you question nothing.
24
You obey the rules.
25
Things stay the same.
26
Akhenaten was the one exception in a 2 ,000 -year line of conformist pharaohs.
27
Rather than the same predictable, idealized features, Akhenaten had his own voluptuous looks,
28
from a strangely curvaceous body to big, sensuous lips.
29
Ruling around 1400 B .C., he was considered history's first monotheist.
30
Akhenaten replaced all the gods of the Egyptian pantheon with one all -powerful being, the sun god, whom he called Aten.
31
In reliefs from the reign of Akhenaten, we see Aten, the sun, shining down on everything.
32
During the time of Akhenaten, people were portrayed looser, more intimately.
33
Casual family scenes must be from the time of Akhenaten.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
