Chapter 1.
2
It is a truth universally acknowledged
3
that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.
4
However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood,
5
This truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families
6
that he is considered the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters.
7
My dear Mr. Bennet, said his lady to him one day, have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last?
8
Mr. Bennet replied that he had not.
9
but it is replied she for mrs long has just been there and she told me all about it
10
mr bennett made no answer do you not want to know
11
who has taken it cried his wife impatiently you want to tell me
12
and i have no objection to hearing it this was invitation
13
enough why my dear you must know Mrs Long says
14
that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of England, that he came down on Monday in a chaise and four to see the place,
15
and was so much delighted with it that he agreed with Mr Morris immediately, that he is to take possession before Michaelmas,
16
and some of his servants are to be in the house by the end of next week.
17
What is his name?
18
Bingley.
19
Is he married or single?
20
Oh, single, my dear, to be sure, a single man of large fortune, four or five thousand a year.
21
What a fine thing for our girls.
22
How so?
23
How can it affect them?
24
My dear Mr. Bennett, replied his wife, how can you be so tiresome?
25
You must know that I'm thinking of his marrying one of them.
26
is that his design in settling here design nonsense how can you talk
27
so but it is very likely
28
that he may fall in love with one of them
29
and therefore you must visit him as soon as he comes now i see no occasion for
30
that you and the girls may go or you may send them by themselves
31
which perhaps would be still better for as you are as handsome as any of them mr bingley may like you, the best of the party.
32
My dear, you flatter me.
33
I certainly have had my share of beauty, but I do not pretend to be anything extraordinary now.
34
When a woman has five grown-up daughters, she ought to give over thinking of her own beauty.
35
In such cases, a woman has not often much beauty to think of.
36
But my dear, you must go and see Mr Bingley when he comes into the neighbourhood.
37
It is more than I engage for, I assure you. But consider your daughters.
38
Only think what an establishment it would be for one of them.
39
Sir William and Lady Luke are determined to go, merely on that account, for in general you know they visit no newcomers.
40
Indeed, you must go, for it will be impossible for us to visit him if you do not.
41
You are over-scrupulous, surely.
42
I dare say Mr Bingley will be very glad to see you, and I will send a few lines by you to assure
43
him of my hearty consent to his marrying whichever he chooses of the girls.
44
Though I must throw in a good word for my little Lizzie.
45
I desire you will do no such thing.
46
Lizzie is not a bit better than the others, and I am sure she is not half so handsome as Jane, nor half so good-humoured as Lydia,
47
but you are always giving her the preference.
48
They have none of the much to recommend them, replied he.
49
They're all silly and ignorant like other girls, but Lizzie has something more of a quickness than her sisters.
50
Mr. Bennet, how can you abuse your own children in such a way?
51
You take delight in vexing me.
52
You have no compassion for my poor nerves.
53
You mistake me, my dear.
54
I have a high respect for your nerves.
55
They are my old friends.
56
I have heard you mention them with consideration these last twenty years at least.
57
Oh, you do not know what I suffer.
58
But I hope you will get over it
59
and live to see many young men of four thousand a year come into the neighborhood.
60
It will be no use to us if twenty such should come since you will not visit them.
61
Depend upon it, my dear,
62
that when there are twenty I will visit them all." Mr. Bennett was so odd a mixture of quick parts,
63
sarcastic humour, reserve and caprice, that the experience of three and twenty years had been insufficient to make his wife understand his character.
64
Her mind was less difficult to develop.
65
She was a woman of mean understanding, little information, and uncertain temper.
66
When she was discontented, she fancied herself nervous.
67
The business of her life was to get her daughters married.
68
Its solace was visiting and news.
69
Chapter Two Mr. Bennet was among the earliest of those who waited on Mr. Bingley.
70
He had always intended to visit him, though to the last always assuring his wife that he should not go.
71
Until the evening after the visit was paid, she had no knowledge of it.
72
It was then disclosed in the following manner.
73
Observing his second daughter employed in trimming a hat, he suddenly addressed her with, I hope Mr. Bingley will like it, Lizzie.
74
"'We are not in a way to know what Mr Bingley likes,' said her mother resentfully, "'since we are not to visit.' "'But you forget,
75
Mama,' said Elizabeth, "'that we shall meet him at the assemblies,
76
and that Mrs Long promised to introduce him.' "'I do not believe Mrs Long will do any such thing.
77
"'She has two nieces of her own.
78
"'She is a selfish, hypocritical woman,
79
and I have no opinion of her.'" No more have I,
80
said Mr. Bennet, and I am glad to find that you do not depend on her serving you.
81
Mrs. Bennet, deigned not to make any reply, but unable to contain herself, began scolding one of her daughters.
82
Don't keep coughing so, Kitty, for heaven's sake!
83
Have a little compassion on my nerves.
84
You tear them to pieces.
85
Kitty has no discretion in her coughs, said her father.
86
She times them ill.
87
I do not cough for my own amusement, replied Kitty fretfully.
88
When is your next ball to be, Lizzie?
89
Tomorrow a fortnight.
90
Aye, so it is, cried her mother.
91
And Mrs Long does not come back till the day before, so it will be impossible for her to introduce him, for she will not know him herself.
92
Then, my dear, you may have the advantage of your friend and introduce Mr Bingley to her.
93
Impossible, Mr Bennet, impossible!
94
When I'm not acquainted with him myself, how can you be so teasing?
95
I honour your circumspection.
96
A fortnight's acquaintance is certainly very little.
97
one cannot know what a man really is by the end of a fortnight.
98
But if we do not venture, somebody else will, and after all Mrs Long and her daughters must stand their chance, and therefore, as she will think it an act of kindness,
99
if you decline the office I will take it on myself.
100
The girls stared at their father.
101
Mrs Bennet said only nonsense, nonsense!
102
What can be the meaning of that emphatic exclamation, exclamation, cried he.
103
Do you consider the forms of introduction and the stress that is laid on them as nonsense?
104
I cannot quite agree with you there.
105
What say you, Mary?
106
What say you, Mary?
107
For you are a young lady of deep reflection, I know, and read great books and make extracts.
108
Mary wished to say something sensible, but knew not how.
109
While Mary is adjusting her ideas, he continued, let us return to Mr Bingley.
110
I am sick of Mr Bingley, cried his wife.
111
I am sorry to hear that.
112
But why did you not tell me that before?
113
If I had known as much this morning, I certainly would not have called on him.
114
It is very unlucky, but as I have actually paid the visit, we cannot escape the acquaintance now.
115
the astonishment of the ladies was just what he wished that of Mrs Bennet perhaps surpassing the rest though
116
perhaps surpassing the rest
117
though when the first tumult of joy was over she began to declare
118
that it was what she had expected all the while
119
how good it was in you my dear Mr Bennet but I knew I should persuade you at last
120
I was sure you loved your girls too well to neglect such an acquaintance.
121
Well, how pleased I am.
122
And it is such a good joke, too, that you should have gone this morning and never said a word about it till now.
123
Now, Kitty, you may cough as much as you choose, said Mr. Bennett.
124
And as he spoke, he left the room, fatigued with the raptures of his wife.
125
What an excellent father you have, girls, said she when the door was shut.
126
I do not know how you will ever make him...
127
What?
128
I do not know how you will ever make him amends for his kindness, or me either, for that matter.
129
At our time of life, it is not so pleasant, I can tell you, to be making new acquaintances every day.
130
But for your sakes, we would do anything.
131
Lydia, my love, though you are the youngest, I dare say Mr Bingley will dance with you at the next ball.
132
Oh, said Lydia stoutly, I am not afraid, for though I am the youngest, I'm the tallest.
133
The rest of the evening was spent in conjecturing how soon he would return Mr Bennet's visit,
134
and determining when they should ask him to dinner.
135
Do we want another one or are we done?
136
What do you think?
137
Let me know.
138
Maybe we'll take a break.
139
And then I'll do some more later.
140
Thank you guys for being here.
141
Quarantine?
142
Where do I end this thing?

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。
