1
Are you still awake?
2
Yes, I am reading a book.
3
What are you doing?
4
It is late.
5
I am looking at our bank account on my phone.
6
Oh, you look worried.
7
Is it bad?
8
Yes, it is.
9
We spent way too much money this month.
10
Really?
11
But we didn't buy anything special.
12
I know, but the money is almost gone.
13
How is that possible?
14
Well, Leo's school fee was very high this month.
15
They asked for money for the new books.
16
That's true.
17
School is so expensive now.
18
But his education is important.
19
Yes, it is.
20
But then my motorbike broke down.
21
The repair was almost $100.
22
I forgot about the motorbike.
23
That was bad luck.
24
And we also ate at restaurants a lot last week.
25
Three times, I know.
26
I was just so tired after work.
27
I didn't have the energy to cook.
28
I understand, Sarah.
29
You work hard, too.
30
But eating out costs a lot of money.
31
You're right.
32
A meal outside is expensive for the three of us.
33
Exactly.
34
We only have a little money left for the rest of the month.
35
Don't worry.
36
We can buy cheaper food at the market.
37
We can eat simple meals.
38
It is not just about this month.
39
We need to save money for the future.
40
What if someone gets sick?
41
I know.
42
We don't have much savings right now.
43
Maybe I should get a second job.
44
A second job? When?
45
I can work at the supermarket on Saturday mornings or drive a taxi.
46
No, Mark.
47
You already work from Monday to Friday.
48
You come home very late.
49
But we need the money.
50
No. Saturday is for our family.
51
Leo wants to play with you.
52
And I want to see you too.
53
But I want to give you and Leo a good life.
54
I feel really stressed about money.
55
I know you do.
56
You're a great husband and father together.
57
But time together is more important than extra money.
58
So what do we do?
59
We can't live like this every month.
60
Let's make a plan.
61
Let's cut our expenses.
62
How?
63
First, no more restaurants.
64
I'll cook dinner every night.
65
You are too tired to cook every night.
66
I will help you cook.
67
We can do it together.
68
That sounds nice.
69
Second, we stop buying coffee at the cafe.
70
We can make coffee at home before work.
71
Okay, that saves money every week.
72
And we can take lunch to work.
73
No more buying food outside.
74
That is a great idea.
75
We can do that.
76
See?
77
We just need to change small habits.
78
But what about Leo?
79
He needs new shoes for school next week.
80
We'll buy his shoes.
81
He's a growing boy.
82
We just won't buy anything for ourselves this month.
83
No new clothes?
84
No new clothes.
85
We don't need them.
86
Okay, you're right.
87
We are a team.
88
Yes, we are.
89
We'll fix this together.
90
Please don't stress too much.
91
I feel much better now.
92
Thank you, Sarah.
93
You're welcome.
94
Now put your phone away.
95
Looking at the bank account won't give us more money.
96
That is very true.
97
Let's sleep.
98
We have to wake up early tomorrow to make our coffee at home.
99
Deal.
100
Good night.
101
Good night.

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。
