Chapter 6 La Carlotta Sings Margarita On Friday morning,
2
La Carlotta had her breakfast in bed.
3
She drank her coffee and opened her morning letters.
4
One letter had no name on it.
5
It was very short.
6
You are ill.
7
You cannot sing Margarita tonight.
8
Stay at home and don't go to the opera house.
9
Accidents can happen.
10
Do you want to lose your voice?
11
Forever.
12
La Carlotta was very, very angry.
13
She got out of bed at once and did not finish her breakfast.
14
This is from Christine Dye's friends, she thought.
15
They want her to sing again tonight.
16
That diey girl is going to be sorry for this.
17
I, La Carlotta, I am the best opera singer in Paris.
18
And nothing is going to stop me singing Margarita tonight.
19
At six o'clock that evening, the dancers were in their dressing room.
20
They talked and laughed and put on their red and black dresses for Faust.
21
But Meg Giry was very quiet.
22
"'What's the matter, Meg?' Annie Sorelli asked.
23
"'It's the opera ghost,' Meg said.
24
"'My mother says he's angry.
25
She's afraid that something's going to happen tonight.
26
Oh, poo, the girl with black hair said.
27
Who's afraid of an old ghost?
28
An hour later, Monsieur Armand and Monsieur Firmain went into box five and sat down.
29
They were not afraid of ghosts.
30
Of course not.
31
There were no ghosts in the opera house.
32
Then, Monsieur Armand saw some flowers on the floor by the door of the box.
33
Fermat, he whispered.
34
Did you put those flowers there?
35
Monsieur Fermat looked.
36
No, I didn't, he whispered back. Did you?
37
Of course not, you fool.
38
Shh!
39
The music's beginning.
40
La Carlotta did not sing for the first hour.
41
There were no strange voices in box five, and the two directors began to feel happier.
42
Then, La Carlotta came out onto the stage, and Monsieur Fermin looked at Monsieur Armand.
43
Did you hear a voice just then?
44
he asked quietly.
45
No, Monsieur Armand said, but he looked behind him twice,
46
then three times and suddenly felt cold.
47
La Carlotta sang and sang, and nothing happened.
48
Then she began a beautiful love song.
49
My love begins to quack.
50
Everybody stared.
51
What was the matter with Carlotta's voice?
52
What was that strange noise?
53
Quack.
54
Carlotta stopped and began the song again.
55
My love begins to quack.
56
I cannot forget my quack.
57
It was the noise of a toad.
58
People began to talk and laugh.
59
Monsieur Fermin put his head in his hands.
60
Then, he felt Monsieur Armand's hand on his arm.
61
There was a voice in the box with them.
62
A man's voice, laughing.
63
Poor Carlotta tried again and again.
64
I cannot forget my cock.
65
Then the two directors heard the voice again, behind them, in front of them, everywhere.
66
Her singing tonight is going to bring down the chandelier.
67
The two directors looked up at the top of the opera house.
68
Their faces were white.
69
The famous chandelier looked up at the top of the Opera House.
70
Their faces were white.
71
The famous chandelier, with its thousand lights, broke away from its ropes and crashed down onto the people below.
72
That was a terrible night for the Paris Opera House.
73
One woman was killed by the chandelier, and many people were hurt.
74
The Opera House closed for two weeks, and La Carlotta never sang again.
75
Thank you.
76
Thank you.

「Chapter 6」を使って、シャドーイングで英語を練習しましょう。

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。
