79
I was looking for my ribbon.
80
You were near the table?
81
Yes, but only for my ribbon.
82
Lily, if you needed money, you should have asked me.
83
Taking money secretly is wrong.
84
I know.
85
That is why I did not take it.
86
Lily, if something happened, you can tell us.
87
I am telling the truth, Mom.
88
Maybe she was scared.
89
Why are you saying that?
90
I am only trying to help.
91
Enough.
92
Lily, this time I am only giving you a warning.
93
A warning?
94
If you need something, you must ask.
95
You must not take money secretly.
96
Okay, Dad.
97
She looked really hurt.
98
I know.
99
But the money is still missing.
100
Now you know how it feels.
101
Mom really loves this face.
102
If it breaks, Mom will be very upset.
103
Mom!
104
Something broke!
105
What broke, Nora?
106
Oh no. I don't know.
107
Hmm.
108
Let's go and see.
109
What happened here?
110
Mom, your vase is broken.
111
Lily, don't move.
112
There is glass near your feet. Are you hurt?
113
No, Mom.
114
I'm not hurt.
115
My vase.
116
Grandma gave this vase to me.
117
It was very special.
118
Lily, why did you break my vase?
119
No, Mom.
120
I didn't break it.
121
Then why are you standing beside it?
122
I heard something break, so I came here to see what happened.
123
Are you telling me the truth?
124
Yes, Mom.
125
The vase was already broken when I came here.
126
Maybe Lily broke it and became scared.
127
Why would you say that?
128
Nora, stop.
129
David, my special vase is broken.
130
Dad, Lily accidentally broke Mom's vase, but she is afraid to tell the truth.
131
Lily, did you have to make this mistake today too?
132
Dad, but I did not do anything.
133
Lily, first the money and now this vase.
134
I did not take the money.
135
I did not break the vase.
136
Then why does trouble keep happening around you?
137
Tonight, you will not play after dinner.
138
What?
139
You will stay in your room and think quietly.
140
Okay, Mom.
141
I cannot believe my special vase broke.
142
I know this vase was special.
143
Now they believe me again.
144
Why is this happening to me?
145
First, dad's money went missing.
146
Then Mom's special vase broke.
147
Nora blamed me both times.
148
Maybe Nora is doing this to hurt me.
149
But why would she do that?
150
Maybe she is taking her anger out on me.
151
I need to know the truth.
152
If Nora tries something again, I need proof.
153
Nora may try something again.
154
This time, I need proof.
155
Please record everything.
156
Good!
157
No one is here.
158
Dad's papers.
159
These look important.
160
What can I ruin this time?
161
If these papers get ruined, Dad will be really angry.
162
Perfect.
163
This will ruin them.
164
What happened to my papers?
165

187
I told the truth every time.
188
I know now, Lily.
189
We did not listen to you.
190
You believed Nora first.
191
Yes.
192
And that was wrong.
193
Nora, why did you do all this?
194
I was angry.
195
Angry about what?
196
She won the game.
197
You hurt your sister because she won one game?
198
I felt small.

210
You will help me clean the vase area and keep the safe pieces.
211
Yes, Mom.
212
Lily, we were wrong.
213
We are sorry.
214
I just wanted you to believe me.
215
I believed blame before I checked the truth.
216
I felt like nobody believed me.
217
Lily, I was angry because you won the game.
218
I am sorry because I hurt you.
219
You were right to feel hurt. And we were wrong.
220
We are sorry, Lily.
221
I am still hurt.
222
I do not forgive everything today.
223
I want to give Nora a punishment too.
224
What?
225
You will clean my bedroom today.
226
What?
227
No!
228
That is not fair!
229
You made me sit in my room and feel bad.
230
But cleaning your room is too much.
231
Nora, what you did was too much.
232
You blamed Lily again and again.
233
You will clean her room today, and you will not complain.
234
Okay, Lily.
235
And you will do it properly.
236
I will.
237
We should have listened first.

Yes.
239
Next time, we will.

練習のコツ
この動画は、子どもたちの遊びの様子が中心で、比較的ゆっくりとしたスピードで会話が進むため、学習者にとって良い練習素材です。特に、shadow speakや英語シャドーイングを行うには最適なペースです。以下のポイントに従って練習してみましょう：
- 最初は音声を流し、その後に自分の声で繰り返しましょう。これが「shadowing」の基本的なテクニックです。
- 単語やフレーズに注目し、正確な発音を心掛けることが重要です。特に「証拠」や「同じ」など、日常会話でもよく使われる語彙をしっかりと練習しましょう。
- 英語を話すときは、流暢さだけでなく、リズムやイントネーションも意識しましょう。動画内の声のトーンを模倣することで、より自然な話し方を習得できます。
- IELTS スピーキング対策としても非常に役立つ内容が含まれていますので、特に試験を控えている方はこの機会に強化してください。
普段の練習とは違ったアプローチで、楽しみながら英語のスピーキングスキルを向上させましょう！
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。
