1
The story of Romeo and Juliet takes place in Verona in Italy.
2
Two families, the Montagues and the Capulets hate each other so much that they fight on the street whenever they meet.
3
One of these families, the Capulets, organises a big party so that they can introduce their daughter Juliet to a rich nobleman,
4
Count Paris, who was asked to marry her.
5
Juliet is nearly 14 and her parents are keen for her to marry soon.
6
Romeo is the son of the Montague family.
7
Romeo and his friends decide that it would be exciting to go to the Capulets party too, but they agree that they must go in disguise because
8
if they are recognised at the party by the Capulets they might be killed.
9
That night at the party Romeo meets Juliet, and they fall in love at first sight.
10
However, Juliet's cousin, Tybalt, recognises Romeo, knows he is from the Montague family, and wants to kill him.
11
Romeo hides in the garden and talks to Juliet when she appears on her balcony.
12
They realise that they are perfect for each other and decide to get married.
13
The next day, they go to a priest called Friar Lawrence, who marries them in secret.
14
Juliet's cousin, Tybalt, gets angry very easily.

18
Romeo is sent away from Verona, but Friar Lawrence, the priest who organised the secret wedding between Romeo and Juliet,
19
arranges for them to spend one night together as husband and wife.
20
Meanwhile, the Capulets decide that Juliet must marry Count Paris immediately.
21
When she says that she doesn't want to, her parents are very angry with her, and her mother says that she will never speak to her again.
22
Of course, they do not know that she has already secretly married to Romeo.
23
Juliet asks Friar Lawrence to get her out of this difficult situation so that she can see her beloved Romeo again.
24
Friar Lawrence has an idea.
25
He gives Juliet a drug which will make everyone think that she is dead,
26
when in fact she is only in a long deep sleep. While Juliet is sleeping,
27
Friar Lawrence sends a message to Romeo to tell him to come to her tomb and take her away.
28
When the guests arrive for Juliet's wedding the next day, her lifeless body is discovered.
29
Believing she is dead, her family put her in their tomb.

He only hears that she is dead.

Romeo returns to Verona and goes to Juliet's tomb.
33
There, inside the tomb, he meets Count Paris, who has also come to say goodbye to Juliet.
34
Juliet.
35
The two fight and Romeo kills him.
36

But soon after this, Juliet's drug stops working and she wakes up.

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。
