1
All of the living things around us like microscopic protists,
2
fungi, plants and animals are called organisms.
3
We can tell if something is an organism by looking at its needs and characteristics.
4
All organisms need the same things to live and survive in their environment.
5
Animals need water, food and nutrients and a place to live.
6
They also need the gas, oxygen.
7
Plants are organisms that produce their own food through the process of photosynthesis.
8
To do this, plants need sunlight and a gas called carbon dioxide.
9
Fungi are decomposers.
10
They don't eat other organisms and they can't photosynthesise.
11
They obtain energy by breaking down the remains of organisms and absorb organic compounds from the broken down remains.
12
In doing so, fungi play an important role in nutrient cycling in ecosystems.
13
From microscopic amoebas to giant blue whales,
14
all organisms are made up of cells.
15
Cells are the smallest units within an organism that can carry out life processes.
16
They are often referred to as the building blocks of life.
17
All organisms grow as they get older.
18
When organisms grow they usually get taller and heavier.
19
As organisms get older they develop to look a lot more like their parents.
20
All organisms can reproduce.
21
This means they are able to produce young of the same kind.
22
An oak tree will produce seeds from which an oak sapling will emerge.
23
A female zebra will give birth to a baby zebra
24
that will grow and go on to reproduce new young of its own.
25
Organisms also respond to changes around them.
26
When an animal senses danger, it may respond by running away.
27
Some plants open and close their leaves or flowers in response to the change from day to night.
28
Many plants grow or bend in the direction of sunlight.
29
to changes around them helps all organisms to meet their needs and survive in their environment.

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。
