Little Fox Monster Academy, The Mystery of the Crashing Brooms,
2
Chapter 2, Mrs. Hag Ben paused in the hallway to check his class schedule.
3
His first class was cooking in room 103.
4
103. Cooking class, thought Ben.
5
I don't want to learn to cook.
6
Around him, lockers slammed and feet thudded as other monsters hurried to their classes.
7
How does my eye makeup look?
8
heard a purple monster ask a goblin.
9
My mom says I put way too much on.
10
It looks great, answered the goblin.
11
But you missed your fourth eye completely.
12
Ben sighed and floated down the hall and into room 103.
13
He saw a zombie sitting alone at a table.
14
Hi, said Ben.
15
Can I sit here?
16
The zombie stared silently at Ben.
17
Ben felt uncomfortable.
18
Maybe he doesn't like me, he thought.
19
There hadn't been any zombies at his old school, mostly just other ghosts.
20
A witch sat down at the table.
21
Ben recognized her from his homeroom.
22
She had flowing black hair and was dressed all in black.
23
Even her fingernails were painted black.
24
The witch smiled at Ben.
25
Zombies just like to stare.
26
It doesn't mean he doesn't like you.
27
What?
28
Ben thought, startled.
29
How did she know what I was thinking?
30
The witch laughed laughed.
31
I can't always tell what others are thinking, but sometimes I can.
32
Have a seat.
33
Uh-oh.
34
Ben thought, sitting down.
35
He was going to have to watch his thoughts when this witch was around.
36
Ben sneaked another look at the witch.
37
Her eyes were green and flecked with gold.
38
She was the most beautiful witch he'd ever seen.
39
Just then, a huge monster with two sharp horns stalked over to the table.
40
Move over! he growled at Ben.
41
I sit next to Winnie!
42
Chill out, Mog, said the witch,
43
spreading her fingers to admire her nail polish.
44
Mog ignored her.
45
He moved his face so close to Ben's that their noses nearly touched.
46
Did you hear me? said Mog.
47
I said move over!
48
The room was suddenly quiet.
49
All the other monsters were looking at Ben.
50
Ben puffed out his chest,
51
trying not to look scared.
52
I heard you, he said.
53
But I'm not moving.
54
He glanced at Winnie, who was watching him with a surprise look.
55
Ma glared at Ben for a few moments.
56
Finally, the big monster grunted and sat down on the other side of Winnie at the end of the table.
57
To Ben's surprise, a ghoul sitting at the next table gave Ben the Claws Up sign.
58
A moment later, an old witch hobbled into the room.
59
She wore a crooked purple hat and orange sunglasses.
60
On her chin was a huge mole.
61
She used to be the broom flying teacher, Winnie whispered.
62
My sister had her last year.
63
She was terrible at flying brooms though.
64
So now a new teacher, Miss Bungle, teaches it.
65
Good morning, monsters, said the teacher.
66
My name is Mrs. Hag,
67
and I will be your cooking teacher.
68
Ma groaned.
69
Excuse me, said Mrs. Hag,
70
fixing her eyes on Mog.
71
Did you have something to say?
72
Yeah, said Mog.
73
I hate cooking.
74
We actually have something in common, thought Ben.
75
Mrs. Hag grinned, revealing a row of brown, rotted teeth.
76
Well then, Mog, perhaps you'll prefer cleaning.
77
That will be your job at the end of class.
78
Mog scowled, and Ben tried not to laugh.
79
After Mrs. Hagg took attendance,
80
she opened an enormous cookbook.
81
For our first cooking lesson,
82
we will make slimy toad stew.
83
Yum, said the ghoul, smacking his lips.
84
First, we need to gather the ingredients.
85
Mrs. Hag read from the cookbook.
86
Let's see.
87
Six rotten eggs, four dried worms,
88
one ounce of bat claws.
89
Oh, I just bought some bat claws yesterday.
90
She felt in her pocket.
91
I thought I had them with me.
92
Mrs. Hag searched her other pockets,
93
but she couldn't find the bat claws anywhere.
94
Oh well, I must have dropped them somewhere, she muttered to herself.
95
Mrs. Hag opened a cabinet and peeked inside.
96
What else can we use?
97
Aha!
98
These thorns will probably work just as well as bat claws.
99
The teacher pulled a small bag from the cabinet.
100
It says here that these are very special thorns,
101
said Mrs. Hag as she examined the bag.
102
They're from a bush that was grown by the light of the full moon.
103
I'm not sure she knows what she's doing, Winnie murmured.
104
By now some of the monsters in class were starting to doze off.
105
Ben thought he heard the zombies snoring,
106
but the zombies' eyes were still open.
107
Ben looked at Winnie.
108
Winnie shrugged.
109
I don't know either.
110
He might be sleeping or he might be awake.
111
It's hard to tell with zombies.
112
Ben was about to respond when suddenly his stool flew out from under him and across the room.

練習のヒント
この動画の影響力を最大限に活用するために、shadow speech（シャドースピーチ）のテクニックをお勧めします。物語のスピードは自然で心地よく、登場人物のセリフはリズミカルです。最初に動画を観て内容を理解した後、もう一度再生しながらキャラクターのセリフを復唱してみてください。特に魔女とゾンビのセリフは、感情が豊かに表現されていますので、感情に集中して発音を真似することが特に効果的です。
また、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立つポイントは、ペースを調整しながら発音練習をすることです。「shadowspeak」を意識して、他のモンスターの台詞を聴き取ってキャッチアップしましょう。時には、声のトーンやリズムを変えてみることで、より自然な発音になります。ぜひ、モンスターたちの楽しいやり取りを楽しみながら、スピーキング能力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。
