1
Good evening 47.
2
Your destination is the Paris fashion show by Sanguine, one of Europe's leading couture brands.
3
Your targets are Sanguine owner Viktor Novikov, a former oligarch turned fashion mobile, and his partner Dalia Margolis,
4
a retired supermodel, an iconic power couple on the global fashion scene, and two of the most dangerous people in the world.
5
Novikov and Margolis are in fact the ringleaders of IAGO, an enigmatic spy ring that deals in the global elite's most valuable secrets.
6
Unscrupulous and opportunistic, IAGO has caused disastrous security leaks all over the globe.
7
When Crimean separatists caused a deadly meltdown at the Odessa nuclear power plant, IAGO gave them access to the plant security network.
8
And when the The Delgado drug cartel shot down the plane of President Hernandez and his family.
9
Iago provided the classified flight plans.
10
Now Novikov and Morgolis have obtained a knock list of British undercover agents, which they plan to sell at a secret Iago auction during the Sanguin show.
11
So our client, MI6, need us to stop the ringleaders before the knock list ends up in the wrong hands.
12
The Sanguine Show will be swarming with security, and Viktor Novikov will be the focus of everyone's attention.
13
But despite his posturing, he is merely the money man.
14
The real target is Dahlia Morgolis, beautiful and brilliant.
15
She is a master manipulator and the true brains behind Iago.
16
Two targets, a highly public event.
17
At first glance, an impossible task.
18
Then again, I do know how you love a challenge.
19
I will leave you to prepare.
20
Good morning, 47.
21
Your destination is the coastal town of Sapienza, also known as the jewel of the Amalfi Coast.
22
Your target is a former client of ours, Silvio Caruso, a brilliant but troubled bioengineer employed by the Ether Biotech Corporation.
23
Renowned for his early stem cell research, Caruso is now reportedly working on a far more disturbing project,
24
a DNA -specific virus able to infect anyone, anywhere in the world.
25
Imagine a bullet, fired in any direction, passing through countless bodies without inflicting harm, invisible and undetectable until it strikes its target.
26
A world of armchair assassins killing with impunity.
27
This is what awaits us, unless Caruso is stopped.
28
Our client, one of Ether's major private stockholders, wants the project cancelled on ethical grounds, but without destroying the company in the process.
29
She has asked us to eliminate Silvio Caruso and destroy the yet unfinished virus prototype.
30
You will also need to deal with Caruso's lab head, Francesca DeSantis,
31
a high -level ether employee and cutthroat corporate climber who holds intimate knowledge of Caruso's research
32
and could potentially carry on in his place.
33
This is no ordinary Contract 47.
34
Caruso's virus is a serious threat to our craft and trade, not to mention our core ideals.
35
So failure is not an option.
36
I'll leave you to prepare Good afternoon 47 your destination is Marrakech,
37
Morocco where civil riots are looming Your targets are private bank
38
and Klaus Strandberg and army general Reza Zedan Two of the conspirators in a sinister plot to overthrow Morocco's fragile government Strandberg,
39
a former bank CEO who stole billions of dollars' worth of savings from the Moroccan people, was facing trial for investment fraud.
40
But early this morning, a band of heavily armed mercenaries freed Strandberg from his prison transport, resulting in the death of several police officers.
41
Strandberg now takes refuge at his native Swedish consulate, in front of which crowds of angry protesters have gathered, demanding his handover to Moroccan authorities.
42
We believe General Zaydan orchestrated Stranberg's escape to infuriate the public and spark nationwide riots,
43
allowing Zaydan to impose martial law.
44
Operating out of a field HQ at a nearby abandoned school, he will no doubt use the riots to depict the Rabat government as weak and inept,
45
and persuade the general staff support a fully -fledged military coup in the name of national security.
46
Our client, building contractor Hamilton Lowe, who stands to lose a fortune in government contracts, has hired us to prevent the coup d 'etat.
47
To do so, you need to paralyze Zédan's rebel forces and prevent the riots from escalating further, hence the double contract.
48
This is quite the political powder keg 47
49
so be careful the fate of a nation is at stake i will leave you to prepare
50
good morning 47 your destination is the himapan luxury hotel resort
51
on the chow prior river just outside bangkok your main target
52
is jordan cross the lead singer of the class a renowned indie rock outfit recording their highly anticipated sophomore album.
53
But this millennial poster boy harbors a dark secret.
54
One year ago, promising young actress Hannah Highmore fell to her death from Cross's penthouse loft in Dumbo, New York.
55
According to the police, Miss Highmore's death was a tragic accident, but her parents remain unconvinced.
56
They firmly believe that Cross murdered Hannah and only escaped justice due to the power and influence of his father, billionaire media mogul Thomas Cross.
57
A secondary target, Ken Morgan, corporate fixer and attorney to the Cross family, is also staying at the hotel.
58
Cunning and unscrupulous, Morgan was a key agent in the cover -up of Hannah Highmore's murder and Jordan Cross's subsequent acquittal.
59
The Highmores understandably want retribution, and while the system may be powerless, ICA is anything but.
60
I will leave you to prepare.
61
Good morning, 47.
62
We have a lead on the Shadow Client.
63
ICA White Hats have traced the anonymous data received by our clients to one Olivia Hall, brilliant young hacktivist and suspect in a dozen cases of cyber vandalism.
64
Using onion rooting with state -of -the -art encryption, Hall went to a lot of trouble to stay untraceable.
65
She is good, but we are better.
66
Her digital trail has led us to a remote farm in Colorado, where satellite footage has revealed what appears to be the training camp for a private militia,
67
led by an already registered target, Sean Rose.
68
Australian environmental terrorist and explosives expert wanted for a series of public bombings.
69
Rose was spotted near the scene of Thomas Cross's kidnapping, which makes him our prime suspect for the shadow client.
70
Spurred by Eric Soders, the ICA Board of Directors has asked us to infiltrate the farm
71
and eliminate Sean Rose along with three other prominent militia members.
72
Ezra Berg, retired Mossad interrogator, Penelope Graves, former Interpol anti -terror analyst,
73
and finally Maya Parvati, former assassin and gunrunner for the Tamil Tigers.
74
I'll be honest with you, 47.
75
I consider Eric Soda's reasoning hasty and ill -advised.
76
Now, we cannot go against the wishes of the board, but we can conduct our own investigation.
77
Whether a direct threat to the ICA or not, we need to know the shallow client's true agenda.
78
I will leave you to prepare.
79
Good morning, 47.
80
The board has sanctioned Eric Soders for termination.
81
After Colorado, we did some digging into Soders' private affairs and discovered
82
that he has been fast -tracked for critical heart surgery at the hyper -exclusive Gama Private Hospital in Hokkaido, Japan.
83
Such a display of power has providence written all over it.
84
Sodas, who suffers from a rare condition known as situs inversus, where his internal organs are reversed,
85
desperately needs a right -sided heart transplant and has clearly betrayed the ICA to get it.
86
He was admitted last night and is currently being prepped for a three -day surgery.
87
We have booked you into GAMA under the usual guise of Tobias Reaper, corporate shark, here for a standard medical checkup.
88
As such, you will need to play it by ear and procure whatever tools you need to complete the mission.
89
You also need to eliminate Yuki Yamazaki, a Tokyo lawyer who works for Providence.
90
SOTUS has already given Yamazaki access to our client records
91
and has agreed to provide a full list of active ICA operatives post -operation.
92
This transaction cannot be allowed to happen.
93
SOTUS must pay for his treachery, and his insidious employers must be taught a lesson.
94
ICA's sovereignty is at stake.
95
Powerful as providence may be, we need to draw a line in the sand.
96
I will leave you to prepare.
97
I think they called me 47.
98
That's not a name.
99
So make it one.
100
All right.
101
Agent 47.
102
We'll be right back.
103
You were always the best, nobody ever came close.
104
You define the art, and it defines you.
105
Your actions have changed the world.
106
Powerful men have fallen by your hand, but by the same token, others have risen.
107
Do you realize what kind of world you've been shaping?
108
Does the ICA? Does your handler?
109
I live in that world I have seen the consequences I have felt the cost
110
That's what defines me

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。
