1
It was a grey day in the big city.
2
I was wondering where my next case would come from when...
3
You've got to help me, One.
4
It's gone.
5
Everything's gone.
6
Slow down, Nine.
7
Tell me what happened.
8
I live in apartment nine on the ninth floor of Numerical Towers.
9
I left home this morning at nine o'clock to buy a newspaper.
10
When I came back nine minutes later, the door was open.
11
Everything was gone.
12
A mystery indeed.
13
I'll take the case.
14
Let's look for clues.
15
Did you notice anything strange or unusual when you got back?
16
Uh, no. Nothing.
17
Oh, there was one thing.
18
A suspicious shadowy stranger in a coat and hat pushed past me and ran out of that door.
19
But apart from that, nothing.
20
Can you describe this stranger?
21
They were as wide as the door, so two blocks wide, with a flat head.
22
Clue one.
23
Flat head when standing two blocks wide.
24
Anything else?
25
I could see over their head when we were both two blocks wide, so they must have been smaller than me.
26
Clue two.
27
Smaller than nine.
28
Look!
29
Hat!
30
Coat!
31
It's them!
32
After them, quick!
33
After them, quick!
34
There, on the steps.
35
The hat!
36
These aren't steps, it's...
37
Did either of you see a suspicious step-shaped figure in a coat and hat?
38
Sorry, friend.
39
No one else down here.
40
Just us.
41
Something didn't add up.
42
Or did it?
43
Let's look at what we know.
44
Clue one.
45
The suspect had a flat head when standing two blocks wide.
46
So it can't have been three, five, seven or nine.
47
And it wasn't you because you can't stand two blocks wide.
48
Two, four, six, eight, ten.
49
The suspect must be an even number.
50
Bingo!
51
And remember clue two?
52
The suspect was smaller than nine.
53
So it can't have been ten.
54
That still leaves two, four, six and eight.
55
But which was it?
56
Hm.
57
Wait!
58
There's one more clue we nearly forgot.
59
The suspect can make a step shape.
60
Not two, or four, or eight.
61
So it must have been...
62
Six.
63
Hmph.
64
And who did we meet in the alley?
65
Three.
66
And another three.
67
Equal six.
68
Stop!
69
Thief!
70
You've got it all wrong.
71
Oh, where to begin?
72
I'm not taking these things.
73
I'm moving them in.
74
Moving in?
75
Come up and I'll show you.
76
One, two, three, four, five, nine.
77
Wait, nine doesn't come after five.
78
This isn't apartment nine.
79
It's apartment six.
80
Look!
81
Number six turned upside down looks like a number nine.
82
No one stole your things, Nine.
83
You went into Six's empty apartment.
84
So my things must be...
85
Right where I left them.
86
Case closed.
87
Sorry we chased you, Six.
88
I thought that you were after me.
89
That's why I hid as three plus three.
90
Let's make it up to you by helping you move in.
91
Welcome to the big city.

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。
