1
Once upon a time, right on the edge of the forest, lived a golden haired girl.
2
This golden yellow haired girl's name was Goldilocks.
3
She had such amazing and admirable locks that everyone who saw her was mesmerised.
4
But despite her sweetness, at times she could be a rather naughty little girl.
5
Every time she stepped out to play, her mother would have to warn her to behave.
6
Darling, please stay in the backyard and don't go into the woods.
7
Deep into the forest in a shack lived a bear family.
8
A broad-shouldered papa bear, a medium-sized mama bear and a baby bear.
9
Mama bear always woke up early to prepare oatmeal porridge for breakfast.
10
One morning, Baby Bear woke up earlier than usual and wanted to eat his porridge.
11
But it was too hot!
12
Mama, can we go out for a walk in the woods until our porridge cools down?
13
Mama, Papa and Baby Bear left their porridges on the table and went out for a walk.
14
The same morning, Goldilocks was playing in the backyard while waiting for her mum to prepare breakfast.
15
But she was so bored of playing in the same yard all the time, and she was very curious about the deep parts of the forest.
16
What would happen if I just went for a walk?
17
She looked around, seeing that no one was around, she began running into the forest.
18
When she got tired, she stopped and looked around.
19
What a beautiful forest!
20
Flowers, trees!
21
Why didn't I come here before?
22
She began to walk deeper into the forest.
23
In the meantime, walking around with his family, the baby bear saw a beehive on the branch of a tree.
24
Such a big beehive!
25
I'm sure it is full of honey!
26
Papa, can we eat some honey?
27
No, my boy, that belongs to the bees.
28
It's their home.
29
We can't go in anybody's home and eat their food.
30
It's not right.
31
You're right.
32
I think I will have to wait until we go home for my breakfast.
33
Meanwhile, Goldilocks walked all by herself for such a long time.
34
Finally, she got lost.
35
She tried to turn back but could not make out the right way way.
36
She got really tired and hungry.
37
She was almost in tears of her tiredness.
38
She walked a little more and finally she came to the end of the road.
39
And she came across the house of the Bear family in between the trees.
40
She quietly approached the house, walked around it, but she could not see anyone.
41
She knocked on the door, but nobody answered.
42
Then she looked through the window.
43
She saw three hot steamy pleats on the table.
44
She went back to the door again and this time she knocked hard.
45
The door opened.
46
Goldilocks was overjoyed.
47
She looked in and yelled, anybody home?
48
When there was no answer She entered.
49
She approached the table.
50
On the table there were three bowls of porridge.
51
One big, one medium-sized and one small.
52
Because she was so hungry, she wanted to eat the big one first.
53
But the moment she put the spoon in her mouth, her mouth burned because the porridge was still too hot.
54
She immediately reached the medium bowl but she did not want to eat this either because it was too cold.
55
It's too cold!
56
Finally, she dipped her spoon into the smallest one.
57
Mmm, this porridge is neither cold nor too hot.
58
It's exactly the way I want it.
59
So she ate all the porridge in the smallest bowl.
60
When she was done with her breakfast and fell full, she wanted to sit on one of the three chairs in front of the chimney to rest for a while.
61
One of the three chairs was a big one, The other one, medium, and the last one was a small one.
62
First she tried to sit on the big one, but she couldn't even climb on it.
63
She tried the medium one, but this one was very hard.
64
It was very uncomfortable.
65
Finally, she sat down on the smallest one.
66
This one was very comfortable and exactly her size.
67
But suddenly the chair broke into pieces with a very loud noise.
68
Goldilocks found herself on the floor and she did not know what to do.
69
She walked through to the next door and here there were three bets.
70
A big, a medium-sized and a small one.
71
First she tried the big bet.
72
This one was too big for her and also too hard.
73
Second one was a little bigger than her size, but also too soft.
74
So she lied down on the third and smallest bed.
75
This one was exactly her size, and it was very comfortable.
76
So comfortable that Goldilocks fell asleep right away.
77
Whilst Goldilocks were sleeping, the Bear family came back home.
78
Papa Bear had some wood with him that he collected for the chimney.
79
Mama Bear had fresh berries and Baby Bear just could not wait to have his porridge.
80
When they arrived home, they went straight to the table.
81
Somebody tasted my porridge!
82
Somebody also tasted my porridge!
83
That somebody also tasted my oatmeal porridge, not only tasted it, also ate it all!
84
They got up and started to look around.
85
Papa Bear noticed his chair in front of the chimney.
86
Somebody sat on my chair.
87
Look, it's on a different spot.
88
Somebody also sat on my chair.
89
Somebody also sat on my chair, but Broker too.
90
The Bear family curiously went to the bedroom.
91
Somebody lied on my bed.
92
Look how it's undone.
93
Somebody lied on mine too.
94
Somebody lied on my bed too.
95
Nanny's still sleeping in it.
96
Papa Bear walked next to Baby Bear's bed and saw that someone really was sleeping in his bed.
97
Slowly lifted up the blanket.
98
They were really surprised to see a little girl sleeping in the bed.
99
What is a little girl doing in our house?
100
Tell this little girl to get out of my bed now!
101
Waking up to baby bears crying, Goldilocks saw three bears in front of her and she ran out of the room in great fear.
102
She went out of the house and started running without looking back.
103
She got breathless from running, but she did not stop.
104
And she didn't even know which way to go.
105
Right at that moment, she saw her parents coming across from the forest.
106
When she didn't end up going back home, they went out looking for her.
107
Goldilocks was very happy to see her parents.
108
She ran and hugged her mother.
109
From now on I will always listen to you.
110
I will never leave without letting you know.
111
Goldilocks hugged her parents really tight.
112
From that day on, as she promised, she always listened to her parents and did nothing without having their permission.
113
She was a well-behaved and kind girl.
114
Once upon a time, there were two sisters named Mangita and Larina, who lived in a small cottage.
115
Mangita was very hardworking, and in her free time she worked at her father's fruit shop.
116
Lorena, on the other hand, loved traveling and having fun.
117
When she got bored, she would look at herself by the river and brush her long hair.
118
Today I'm even more beautiful than my sister.
119
One day, Mangita and Lorena's father went on a long journey that could not be enough journey that could not be undone.
120
Although Mangita was very sad about her father's departure, Larina was happy.
121
Now I can sit by the river all night.
122
After her father left, Mangita began to work even harder.
123
In the morning, she would sweep the floor, make delicious soup for lunch, and hang laundry.
124
Lorena's only entertainment was causing trouble for her sister.
125
She would dirty the carpets at home and pour ice-cold water into the cooked soup.
126
Why is the soup still cold?
127
And why are these carpets dirty?
128
I just cleaned them.
129
The animals you fed must have dirtied them, huh?
130
One day, Lorena went out for a walk in the forest.
131
She carelessly picked unripe fruits and threw them into the river.
132
At that moment, an old woman walked slowly towards her.
133
Hello, dear girl.
134
I am very hungry.
135
Could you give me some fruit too?
136
Lorena handed the old woman the wild strawberries she had just picked, which tasted bad.
137
Auntie, you can eat as much as you want.
138
These are the most delicious strawberries in the world.
139
As soon as the old woman ate the strawberries, her stomach began to hurt. Are these strawberries delicious?
140
Ugh, still, thank you.
141
As Lorena was returning home, the old woman fell asleep right there.
142
While Mangita was out in the forest gathering vegetables for dinner, she saw the sick old woman.
143
She immediately brought her home and put her to bed.
144
What is this woman doing in our house?
145
She smells awful.
146
Don't say that, Lorena.
147
The woman is very sick.
148
We must feed her healthy food to help her recover.
149
Mangita prepared hot soups and made herbal teas for the old woman.
150
Lorena secretly poured out the soups and put dirt into the herbal teas.
151
Larina, did you put dirt in this herbal tea?
152
Tell me right now.
153
No, I didn't put it.
154
The old woman did.
155
In a few days, the old woman had recovered.
156
You are a kind-hearted girl, Mangita.
157
If you ever get sick, eat these blueberries every day.
158
You will recover right away.
159
After a long time of doing all the chores by herself,
160
Mangita became very tired and finally fell sick and went to bed.
161
Larina, could you bring me the blueberries the old woman gave me?
162
But Larina ate all the blueberries herself.
163
There's nothing here.
164
Maybe the birds you fed ate them all.
165
Mangita became even weaker, falling asleep drenched in sweat.
166
Larina left the house and went to the river to comb her hair.
167
At that moment, the old woman appeared before her again.
168
Hey little girl, where's your sister?
169
She went to pick fruit in sacks and went to work.
170
What's it to you?
171
The old woman realized that Larina had lied.
172
She immediately went to their house to see Mangita.
173
The old woman felt very sad when she saw the young girl who helped her, drenched in sweat and looking sick and cried for a long time.
174
Larina, who was watching them from the window, laughed out loud.
175
Just at that moment, the old woman turned into a beautiful fairy.
176
Lorena was very surprised when she saw the fairy.
177
You're a fairy.
178
I open my house to you.
179
You owe me.
180
Let me have the most beautiful hair in the world.
181
Quickly, use magic and grant my wish.
182
Actually, when the fairy first saw Lorena, she turned into an old woman to see if she was a good person.
183
I gave you a chance to do one good deed, but you always did bad things.
184
At that moment, the fairy waved her magic wand from side to side.
185
Lorena's hair turned into ivy.
186
Ha!
187
My hair!
188
What happened to my hair?
189
It became so ugly!
190
Help!
191
Lorena ran to the river in fear and looked at her hair.
192
As flies buzzed around her head, her ivy hair suddenly got stuck in the ground.
193
I've become so ugly.
194
I don't want to look at myself.
195
At that moment, the fairy fed a blueberry to Mangita, and she finally recovered and opened her eyes.
196
Thank you, fairy.
197
I feel much better now.
198
The fairy waved her wand twice, turning their small cottage into a dazzling palace.
199
Megidda was very surprised and impressed when she saw the palace.
200
Kindness is always rewarded, young girl.
201
This palace is your reward.
202
Thank you, fairy.
203
But what about my sister?
204
What happened to her?
205
Your sister will forever look at her ugly reflection by the river.
206
I love my sister so much.
207
What is the point of living alone in this huge palace without her?
208
Give us back a happy life in our cottage, fairy.
209
That is my only wish.
210
The fairy was very happy to hear Mangita's words.
211
First, she turned the magnificent palace back into the cottage.
212
Then, she went to Lorena and with her magic wand, she turned her ivy hair back to its old beautiful form.
213
Lorena hugged Mangeeta out of happiness.
214
You saved me.
215
I am so sorry.
216
I will be a good person now.
217
I promise.
218
At that moment, Lorena understood that the happiness of helping others is worth everything.
219
because happiness becomes more beautiful when shared.

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。
