1
Mr. Harris liked trains.
2
He was afraid of airplanes and didn't like buses.
3
But trains, they were big and noisy and exciting.
4
When he was a boy of 10, he liked trains.
5
Now he was a man of 50, and he still liked trains.
6
So he was a happy man on the night of the 14th of September.
7
He was on the night train from Helsinki to Ulu in Finland, and he had 10 hours in front of him.
8
I've got a book and my newspaper, he thought.
9
And there's a good restaurant on the train.
10
And then I've got two weeks holiday with my Finnish friends in Ulu.
11
There weren't many people on the train, and nobody came into Mr. Harris's carriage.
12
He was happy about that.
13
Most people on the train slept through the night, but Mr. Harris liked to look out of the window and to read and think.
14
After dinner in the restaurant Mr. Harris came back to his carriage and sat in his seat next to the window.
15
For an hour or two he watched the trees and lakes of Finland out of the window.
16
Then it began to get dark, so he opened his book and began to read.
17
At midnight the train stopped at the small station of Otava.
18
Mr. Harris looked out of the window, but he saw nobody.
19
The train moved away from the station into the black night again.
20
Then the door of Mr. Harris' carriage opened and two people came in.
21
A young man and a young woman The young woman was angry She closed the door and shouted at the man,
22
Carl You can't do this to me The young man laughed loudly and sat down Mr. Harris was a small,
23
quiet man He wore quiet clothes and he had a quiet voice He did not like noisy people and loud voices.
24
So he was not pleased.
25
Young people are always noisy, he thought.
26
Why can't they talk quietly?
27
He put his book down and closed his eyes.
28
But he could not sleep because the two young people didn't stop talking.
29
The young woman sat down and said in a quieter voice, Carl, you're my brother and I love you, but please listen to me.
30
You can't take my diamond necklace.
31
Give it back to me now.
32
Please.
33
Carl smiled.
34
No, Elena, he said.
35
I'm going back to Russia soon and I'm taking your diamonds with me.
36
He took off his hat and put it on the seat.
37
Elena, listen.
38
You have a rich husband, but I have no money.
39
I have nothing.
40
How can I live without money?
41
You can't give me money, so I need your diamonds, little sister.
42
Mr. Harris looked at the young woman.
43
She was small with black hair and dark eyes.
44
Her face was white and afraid.
45
Mr. Harris began to feel sorry for Elena.
46
She and her brother didn't look at him once.
47
Can't they see me?
48
He thought.
49
Carl, Elena said.
50
Her voice was very quiet now, and Mr. Harris listened carefully.
51
You came to dinner at our house tonight, and you went to my room and took my diamond necklace.
52
How could you do that to me?
53
My husband gave the diamonds to me.
54
They were his mother's diamonds before that.
55
He's going to be very, very angry, and I'm afraid of him.
56
Her brother laughed.
57
He put his hand in his pocket, then took it out again and opened it slowly.
58
The diamond necklace in his hand was very beautiful.
59
Mr. Harris stared at it.
60
For a minute or two nobody moved and it was quiet in the carriage.
61
There was only the noise of the train and it went quickly on through the dark cold night.
62
Mr. Harris opened his book again, but he didn't read it.
63
He watched Carl's face with its hungry eyes and its cold smile.
64
What beautiful, beautiful diamonds.
65
Carl said, I can get a lot of money for these.
66
Give them back to me, Carl, Elena whispered whispered, my husband's going to kill me.
67
You're my brother.
68
Please help me.
69
Please.
70
Carl laughed again and Mr. Harris wanted to hit him.
71
Go home, little sister Carl said.
72
I'm not going to give the diamonds back to you.
73
Go home to your angry husband.
74
Suddenly there was a knife in the young woman's hand.
75
A long, bright knife.
76
Mr. Harris watched with his mouth open.
77
He couldn't speak or move.
78
Give the diamonds back to me.
79
Elena cried.
80
Or I'm going to kill you.
81
Her hand on the knife was white.
82
Carl laughed and laughed.
83
What a sister, he said.
84
What a kind, sweet sister.
85
No, they're my diamonds now.
86
Put your knife away, little sister.
87
But the knife in the white hand moved quickly, up, then down.
88
There was a long, terrible cry, and Carl's body fell slowly onto the seat.
89
The color of the seat began to change to red and the diamond necklace fell from Carl's hand onto the floor.
90
Elena's face was white.
91
Oh no, she whispered.
92
Carl!
93
Come back, come back!
94
I didn't want to kill you.
95
But Carl didn't answer and the red blood ran slowly over the floor.
96
Elena put her head in her hands and again in the carriage there was a long, terrible cry.
97
Mr. Harris's face was white too.
98
He opened his mouth but he couldn't speak.
99
He stood up and carefully moved to the door.
100
The young woman was quiet now.
101
She didn't move or look up at Mr. Harris.
102
In the corridor, Mr. Harris ran.
103
The guard was at the hack of the train and Mr. Harris got there in half a minute.
104
Quickly, Mr. Harris said.
105
Come quickly.
106
An accident, a young woman, oh dear.
107
Her brother is, is dead.
108
The guard ran with Mr. Harris back to the carriage
109
Mr. Harris opened the door
110
and they went inside There was no dead body of a young man There was no young woman,
111
no blood, no knife, no diamond necklace
112
Only Mr. Harris's bags and his hat and coat The guard looked at Mr. Harris and Mr. Harris looked at him But?
113
Mr. Harris began But they were here I saw them She,
114
the young woman She had a knife and she,
115
she killed her brother A knife, you say? the guard asked Yes,
116
Mr. Harris said quickly A long knife, and her brother took her diamonds so she.
117
Ah.
118
Diamonds, the guard said.
119
Was the young woman's name Elena?
120
He asked.
121
Yes, it was.
122
Mr. Harris said.
123
How do you know that? Do you?
124
Do you know her?
125
Yes and no, the guard said slowly.
126
He thought for a minute, then looked at Mr. Harris.
127
Elena D.
128
Serinelli, he said.
129
She had dark eyes and black hair.
130
Very beautiful.
131
She was half Italian, half Finnish.
132
Her brother was a half-brother.
133
They had the same father, but his mother was Russian, I think. Was? Had?
134
Mr. Harris stared at the guard. But she.
135
Elena.
136
She's alive. And where is she?
137
Oh no, said the guard.
138
Elena D.
139
Serenelli died about 80 years ago.
140
After she killed her brother with a knife, she jumped off the train and died at once.
141
It was near here, I think.
142
He looked out of the window into the night.
143
Mr. Harris's face was very white again.
144
Eighty years ago, he whispered.
145
What are you saying?
146
Where's she and her brother? But I saw them.
147
Yes, that's right, the guard said.
148
You saw them, but they're not alive.
149
They're ghosts.
150
They often come on the night train at this time in September.
151
I never see them, but somebody saw them last year.
152
A man and his wife.
153
They were very unhappy about it.
154
But what can I do?
155
I can't stop Elena and Carl coming on the train.
156
The guard looked at Mr. Harris's white face.
157
You need a drink, he said.
158
Come and have a vodka with me.
159
Mr. Harris didn't usually drink vodka, but he felt afraid.
160
When he closed his eyes, he could see again Elena's long knife and could hear her terrible cry.
161
So he went with the guard to the back of the train.
162
After the vodka, Mr. Harris felt better.
163
He didn't want to sleep, and the guard was happy to talk walk.
164
So Mr. Harris stayed with the guard and didn't go back to his carriage.
165
Yes, the guard said, it's a famous story.
166
I don't remember it all.
167
It happened a long time ago, of course.
168
Elena's father was a famous man here in Finland.
169
He was very rich once, but he had three or four wives and about eight children.
170
And he liked the good things of life.
171
So there wasn't much money for the children.
172
Carl, the oldest son, was a bad man, people say.
173
He wanted an easy life and money in his hand all the time.
174
The train hurried on to Ulu through the black night and the guard drank some more vodka.
175
Now, Elena, he said.
176
She didn't have an easy life with those three difficult men, her father, her brother, her husband.
177
One year she visited her mother's family in Italy, and there she met her husband, Di Serenelli.
178
He was rich, but he wasn't a kind man.
179
They came back to Finland, and Carl often visited their house.
180
He wanted money from his sister's rich husband.
181
Elena loved her brother and gave him some money.
182
UTD Serenelli didn't like Carl and was angry with Elena.
183
He stopped giving her money and after that.
184
Well, you know the story now.
185
Yes, Mr. Harris said.
186
Poor, unhappy Elena.
187
Mr. Harris stayed with his friends in Ulu for two weeks.
188
They were quiet weeks and Mr. Harris had a good holiday.
189
But he took the bus back to Helsinki.
190
The bus was slow and there were a lot of people on it but Mr. Harris was very happy.
191
He didn't want to take the night train across Finland again.

このレッスンについて
「Learn English through Story - Mr Harris - Level 1」のビデオを使った英語学習では、物語形式の会話を通じて日常英語の理解力と発音、リズムを磨くことができます。Mr. Harrisの列車の旅で起こる出来事を追いながら、自然な会話の流れや感情の表現方法を学び、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立つ実践的なスキルを身につけましょう。特に、物語の中の人物の会話はリアルなスピードで進行するため、shadow speech（シャドーイング）の練習に最適です。
重要な語彙とフレーズ
- diamond necklace：ダイヤモンドのネックレス。物語の軸となるアイテムで、所有権の争いに関する会話で使われます。
- carriage：列車の車両。「Mr. Harris's carriage」のように所有格と組み合わせて使います。
- shouted at：～に向かって叫ぶ。感情的な場面での表現で、怒りや不安を伝えます。
- feel sorry for：～を気の毒に思う。Mr. HarrisがElenaに対して抱く気持ちを表します。
- rich husband：金持ちの夫。CarlがElenaに対して言う言葉で、経済的な格差を示します。
練習のコツ
このビデオの会話は比較的ゆっくりとしたスピードで、感情の変化がはっきり表れているため、英語シャドーイングの入門者にも適しています。以下のポイントを押さえて練習しましょう。
- 最初は10秒ごとにポーズを入れて、発音やイントネーションを真似る。特にElenaの恐れやCarlの強引な態度を表す声のトーンに注目します。
- 「You can't do this to me」のような怒りの表現は、声の高さと速さを抑えながら、感情を込めて発声する練習をします。これはshadowspeaksの基本テクニックでもあり、shadowing siteでも推奨されています。
- 物語の中の沈黙や息継ぎの部分も再現する。自然な会話では、話し手が考えを整理するために一時停止することがあり、これを真似ることでリアルな会話のリズムを身につけられます。
毎日15分程度、このビデオを使ってシャドーイングを続けると、発音の精度や会話の流れの理解が大幅に向上し、IELTS スピーキング対策にも大きな成果が現れます。
この動画の文法
話し手がよく使っている文型を、動画の実際の表現とともに紹介します。
| 文型 | 動画での表現 |
|---|---|
| 動詞 + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — 後ろに-ing形が続く動詞 | stop talking · stopped giving |
| 「going to」の未来表現 be going to + 動詞 — 予定や、起こりそうだと分かること | He's going to be · husband's going to kill · I'm not going to give |
| 現在進行形 am/is/are + -ing — 今まさに、または最近起きていること | I'm going · are you saying |
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。
