1
Who is Pavel?
2
The old man drank some water and looked up.
3
Pavel, he said, I must ask you to look at this photo.
4
He put his hand in his pocket and took out a photograph of a young woman.
5
Do you know this woman?
6
Yes, said Pavel.
7
That's a photo of my mother, Lenka.
8
She died when I was very young.
9
But my grandmother had many photos of her, and we often looked at them.
10
Did you live with your grandmother when you were young?
11
Yes, I did.
12
But how do you know all this?" Because,
13
said Yosef, Lenka was my wife.
14
Dad, what are you saying? said Jan.
15
Joseph looked at Jan.
16
My boy, don't be angry with me.
17
I didn't tell you many things about your mother.
18
Perhaps I was wrong.
19
But I wanted to forget.
20
Not to forget your mother.
21
Only to forget that terrible night in 1957.
22
Jan, this man, Pavel, is your twin brother.
23
You can see that it's true.
24
Look at your faces." looked at Jan.
25
So, I have a brother, he said.
26
My grandmother never told me that.
27
Jan smiled.
28
And my father, our father, never told me about a twin brother.
29
He turned to Josef.
30
Dad, why Why didn't you tell me?
31
It's a long story," said the old man.
32
It begins many years ago, when a young man went to Prague University.
33
He was there for seven years, and in his last year, he met a beautiful young woman.
34
His eyes turned to the photo.
35
She was so beautiful.
36
Of course, the young man fell in love with her, and they got married in 1956.
37
But things were difficult in Prague then.
38
People were not happy, and they were not free.
39
Lenka and I, and a lot of our friends, wanted to change things.
40
But it was dangerous work.
41
The Russians knew about us, and they watched us all the time.
42
Then, you two boys were born on a wonderful day in June 1957.
43
But you went away, Pavel said angrily.
44
Your wife died and you left the country.
45
You went away to England and began a new life.
46
You didn't write.
47
You didn't telephone.
48
You weren't interested in me, your son.
49
Yosef's face was very sad.
50
Pavel, he said, I thought you were dead.
51
Look, I must show you something.
52
From behind the photo of his wife, he took out a letter and gave it to Pavel.
53
The letter was old and yellow.
54
Pavel opened it and began to read.
55
The letter was in check and it was his grandmother's writing.
56
I write to tell you, Josef, that your wife is dead.
57
On Christmas night, the guards shot her on the road at the border.
58
She carried Pavel, your baby son, and my grandson on her back.
59
And the guards shot him too.
60
Your wife and your son are dead.
61
Your friends came and told me yesterday.
62
You have yarn.
63
And a new life in England.
64
And what do I have?
65
Nothing.
66
You took one grandson away from me.
67
And now my daughter and little Pavel are dead because of you.
68
Don't write to me.
69
And don't come back to Prague.
70
I never want to see you or hear from you again.
71
Stanislava." Slowly, Pavel put the letter down.
72
I understand now, he said quietly.
73
What a terrible letter!
74
How could she do that to you?
75
And to me?
76
Stanislava loved her daughter very much, Joseph said sadly.
77
She loved you too and didn't want to lose you.
78
I see that now.
79
But she never liked me.
80
And after that letter, how could I go back to Prague?
81
You were dead.
82
Lenka was dead." He put his face in his hands.
83
The room was very quiet.
84
Then Pavel put his hand on his father's arm.
85
Stanislava is dead now, he said.
86
You and I can begin again, he smiled, and learned to be father and son.
87
Yosef's face was wet with tears.
88
He put his hand over Pavel's hand and smiled back at him.
89
But he could not speak.
90
Now there were tears in everybody's eyes.
91
After a minute or two, Jan said, Dad, I know it's difficult for you.
92
Can you tell us about that Christmas in 1957?
93
How did it all happen?
94
I'd like to know." Yes, said his father.
95
You and Pavel must know.
96
He turned to Pavel.
97
But what did Stanislava tell you?
98
little," Pavel said.
99
She never wanted to talk about it.
100
She told me that my mother died in hospital and you went away to England.
101
That was all.
102
I can understand that," said Yosef.
103
She lost her daughter because of me.
104
And she never liked our work for freedom, you see.
105
She didn't understand.
106
She just wanted a quiet family life." Christmas, 1957, said Jan.
107
Yes, said Josef.
108
In October and November of that year, things got more and more dangerous for Lenka and me.
109
Our friends told us, leave before the Russians get you.
110
Get away to Austria and then to England.
111
We didn't want to leave Czechoslovakia, of course.
112
It was our home.
113
But we couldn't stay.
114
Our friends helped us, and Jan and I got across the border on the day before Christmas, December the 24th.
115
It was night.
116
There was no moon, and we got to Austria all right through the fields and the snow.
117
But the next night...
118
December 25th, said Pavel.
119
My grandmother told me the day.
120
My mother died in a hospital bed in Prague, she said.
121
Lenka died in the snow, on the road at the border,
122
Joseph said, she was so near Austria,
123
so near us, with you, Pavel, on her back.
124
The old man's voice stopped, and again, he put his head in his hands.
125
Thank you.
126
Thank you.
127
Thank you.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
