I write now, but nobody knows.
4
Nobody can see me now.
5
Something strange has happened to me.
6
I will tell you about it.
7
In January, I wanted to write a very long book.
8
So I left my home,
9
and I found a little room.
10
This is a good room for a writer, I thought.
11
I'll write my book here.
12
It was a little room, but I liked it.
13
It was very quiet.
14
I began to work on my book, and I was happy.
15
Then things began to happen.
16
strange things.
17
One day I was at my desk with my pen in my hand.
18
Suddenly I thought, I want a coffee,
19
and I haven't got any.
20
I'll have to go to the shop.
21
I put my pen on the table and went out.
22
When I came back, I looked for the pen.
23
It wasn't on the table.
24
I looked on the floor,
25
on my chair, and then on the table again.
26
It wasn't there.
27
I don't understand it, I thought.
28
That night, another strange thing happened.
29
I was in bed, and the room was very quiet.
30
Suddenly, I opened my eyes.
31
What was that?
32
I wondered.
33
Then I heard a voice.
34
A man's voice.
35
Who's there?
36
I cried.
37
There was no answer, and there was nobody in the room.
38
I couldn't understand it, and I was afraid.
39
What can I do?
40
I thought.
41
What was that?
42
After that, strange things happened every day.
43
But I had to finish my book, so I stayed there.
44
The room was very small.
45
There were not many things in it.
46
Only a bed, a table, and a chair.
47
And there was a mirror on the wall.
48
It was a very old mirror, and I liked it.
49
And then, one day, I looked in the mirror and I saw him, the other man.
50
It wasn't me.
51
This man had a beard, but I didn't.
52
I shut my eyes and looked again.
53
This time, I saw my face in the mirror.
54
It didn't happen, I thought.
55
I was wrong, there wasn't another man.
56
I went for a walk that day,
57
and I didn't work on my book.
58
I didn't want to be in the room.
59
I didn't want to see or hear strange things.
60
At night I went home again.
61
The room was very quiet.
62
I looked in the mirror and saw my face. But I wasn't happy.
63
I went to bed, but I couldn't sleep.
64
I'll leave here tomorrow, I thought.
65
And after that, I slept.
66
But then another strange thing happened.
67
The other man stood by my bed and spoke to me.
68
You will never leave here, he said.
69
You will stay with me.
70
And then I opened my eyes.
71
I was very cold and afraid.
72
I'll leave now, I thought.
73
I can't stay here for one more minute.
74
Quickly, I put my things in a case.
75
I wanted to go, now.
76
I couldn't forget the man, so I was afraid. But afraid of what?
77
I didn't know.
78
When my clothes were in the case,
79
I thought, I'll leave the room now.
80
I looked round the room,
81
and I also looked in the mirror again.
82
And then I suddenly felt colder and more afraid.
83
I couldn't see the other man in the mirror.
84
Why?
85
Because he wasn't there.
86
But I couldn't see my face in the mirror.
87
There was no face.
88
Why not?
89
I tried to shout, but no sound came.
90
I had no voice.
91
And then I saw him.
92
I saw the other man.
93
The man with the beard.
94
But he wasn't in the mirror.
95
He was at the table with my pen in his hand.
96
He wrote my book with my pen.
97
I was angry, and I tried to speak,
98
but I couldn't, because I had no voice.
99
The other man didn't speak.
100
He smiled and wrote.
101
Suddenly, there was a sound at the door,
102
and I heard a friend's voice.
103
Are you there? my friend called.
104
I want to see you.
105
I was very happy then.
106
My friend will help me, I thought.
107
But I couldn't move.
108
The other man went to the door and opened it.
109
Come in, he said to my friend.
110
Come and see my room.
111
I'm writing my book.
112
My friend came into the room,
113
but he didn't see me.
114
He smiled at the other man.
115
My friend said, Oh, you have a beard now?
116
Again and again I tried to speak, but I couldn't.
117
My friend couldn't see me.
118
He couldn't hear me.
119
he only saw the other man.
120
That is my story.
121
The other man has my room,
122
and he also has my face and my voice.
123
He will finish my book, too.
124

なぜこのビデオでスピーキングを練習するべきか?
このビデオは、奇妙な出来事を背景にしたミステリーな物語です。英語を学びながら、物語のスリルを楽しむことができます。このようなストーリーは、英語スピーキング練習に非常に効果的です。なぜなら、感情を込めて話す練習ができ、イントネーションやリズムを理解するための素晴らしい機会を提供してくれるからです。
特に「YouTubeで英語学習」をしている方にとって、日常会話やIELTSスピーキング対策にも役立ちます。英語を実際に話すことで、言葉の使い方を体得し、自信を持ってコミュニケーションを取れるようになるでしょう。
文法と文脈の中の表現
このビデオには、英語の表現や文法構造がたくさん含まれています。以下に、特に注意すべき3つのポイントを分析します：
- 過去形の使い方：「I wrote books」「I was a writer」という過去形の表現により、登場人物の経験をクリアに伝えています。英語スピーキング練習において、過去の出来事を語ることは一般的なスキルです。
- 疑問文の使用：「Who’s there?」「What was that?」などの疑問文は、緊張感や不安を表現するために便利です。会話の中で質問を使うことは、聞き手とのインタラクションを高めます。
- 感情の表現：「I couldn't understand it, and I was afraid.」のように、感情を表す文はストーリーに深みを加えます。これにより、話し手の気持ちが聞き手に伝わりやすくなります。
よくある発音の罠
このビデオには、いくつか発音が難しい言葉やフレーズが含まれています。例えば：
- 「suddenly」: 「sud-den-ly」と、音を分けて発音することが難しいかもしれません。しっかりと「d」を発音することで、よりクリアになります。
- 「strange」: この単語は「ストレンジ」と発音しますが、最初の音をきちんと強調することがポイントです。発音で注意が必要です。
- 声のトーンの変化：話者の声は緊張感を表現するために変化します。「shadow speak」技術を使うことで、声の抑揚やイントネーションを学ぶのが助けになります。
このように、ストーリーを元にした英語のリスニングとスピーキング練習は、特に「英語スピーキング練習」において非常に有益です。自信を持って会話を楽しみましょう！
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。
