레슨 만드는 중...
1
Hi, I'm Camilia from Brazil.
2
Before I tell you my story, please like and subscribe.
3
My parents were super, super rich.
4
Just kidding.
5
We were living in the poorest neighborhood in town.
6
Mom stayed at home and dad mowed lawns and we had little to no money.
7
Hmm, maybe I should have subscribed to this channel and tried to win $10,000.
8
Hey, you should try that.
9
Subscribe to MSA today and you could be the lucky winner of $10,000 in just seven days.
10
Fingers crossed!
11
But anyways, being poor didn't stop my parents from spoiling my younger brother Pedro rotten.
12
You see, Pedro was a genius.
13
By the time he was eight months old, he could say his alphabet and count to 100.
14
By the time he was two, he was doing mathematical equations and solving puzzles.
15
Our baby is a genius!
16
He's going to make us so proud!
17
And what am I?
18
Chop lover?
19
On my fifth birthday, instead of the princess house with the car and pool I wanted, Mom stitched me a doll from old clothes.
20
We just don't have the money, sweetie.
21
But Pedro received a brand new remote control car.
22
Sweetie, we had to get Pedro something as well.
23
That wasn't even the worst of it.
24
Pedro was allowed to go to school, and I wasn't.
25
My parents said it was because Pedro had a special gift, so they used all the money they had to send him to a private school for gifted children.
26
And they couldn't even afford books for me to go to a public school.
27
Life was so unfair.
28
I felt so invisible.
29
The only time my parents saw me was when they wanted me to do some chore around the house.
30
Over time, I just got used to it.
31
And since I couldn't read books to myself, or I didn't have a phone to watch videos, I started to sew to pass my time.
32
Camellia, what did you do to my curtains?
33
I fell in love with creating new things from old stuff, and I wanted to become a fashion designer.
34
Because of how differently my parents treated Pedro and me, we never grew up close, and he always saw me as his slave, even though I was older than he was.
35
Clip my toenails!
36
Clean my shoes!
37
When I was 11, I begged my parents to send me to a sewing school.
38
Mom!
39
Dad!
40
I deserve to be able to follow my dreams too!
41
They don't have the money to send you to some stupid sewing school
42
when they're going to send me to the most prestigious college in the country.
43
I'm sorry, Camilla, but we have to support the child who has greater potential and will make the family proud.
44
With that, Mom and Dad just walked away as Pedro stood there with a stupid smirk on his face.
45
Oh, I wanted to smack him hard.
46
It was then that I decided I'd do whatever it took to get myself into a sewing school.
47
I tried to get a job, but nobody wanted to hire an 11-year-old, not even as a clown for a birthday party.
48
When I was 13, things looked as though they were turning around, and I finally landed a babysitting job.
49
But when my parents found out that I'd been neglecting household chores because of it, they were furious.
50
I was grounded for two months, and Dad tore up all my designs that I had stuck on my bedroom walls over the years.
51
I was devastated, but a tiny part of me refused to give up.
52
I had to be smart.
53
This time, when I drew, I hid my drawings under the floorboards of my bed, and when Mom sent me to the supermarket, I'd pass by the wishing fountain and take all the coins.
54
Don't give me that judgmental look, but after three years of saving those coins, it still wasn't enough.
55
Luckily for me, my life took an amazing turn when I turned 16, and that set things in motion for me.
56
One day, while drawing in my room, I was so focused that I didn't see this girl peeking in at me through the window.
57
Wow, that looks amazing!
58
Ah!
59
I toppled out of my chair and fell to the ground.
60
The girl then did a backflip through my bedroom window and came in.
61
Did the circus come to town?
62
What do you want?
63
Did my parents send you to spy on me?
64
No, silly.
65
I'm the new neighbor and I didn't even let her finish.
66
I just picked her up, threw her out of the window and closed the curtains.
67
As much as I wanted a friend, I didn't want anyone to know that I couldn't read or write.
68
What would she think of me?
69
But that didn't stop the crazy backflip girl.
70
Over the next few days, she did everything she could to get my attention, even juggling three cats while she balanced a mug of water on her head.
71
What a weirdo.
72
One day, I decided to take a shortcut home
73
because I had seen a lady with the most amazing outfit and I wanted to get home and sketch it.
74
Just then, I heard a man yell behind me.
75
Watch out!
76
As I turned, I saw a huge crane ball coming my way.
77
I froze in place, but luckily for me, someone pushed me to the ground just in time.
78
Girl, are you crazy?
79
This is a danger zone.
80
Can't you read?
81
I, uh, oh god, I was sweating like a bald man in spring.
82
Can you read?
83
I sighed heavily and shook my head.
84
That's okay.
85
I can't draw amazing fashion designs like you can.
86
Let's go and grab some ice cream.
87
My treat.
88
While eating the ice cream, crazy backflip girl, I mean Sophia, told me that she had moved next door with her parents and older brother Harrison.
89
Also, that Harrison was a rotten egg and always got himself into trouble.
90
She also told me that her father lost his job after his boss accused him of stealing money from his office,
91
and then blacklisted him so no one else would hire him while her mother worked as a maid for some rich lady.
92
I told her that my parents hated me
93
and wouldn't even let me go to school while they treated Pedro like he was a prince.
94
What do they think this is?
95
The 16th century?
96
No girl left behind.
97
Woman power.
98
Over the next few months, Sophia taught me how to read and write.
99
She was a great teacher, and I was a quick learner.
100
Sophia's mother even supplied me with her old drapes to practice my designs on.
101
As much as I loved my bestie, there was a downside of being neighbors with Sophia.
102
Harrison and Pedro became best friends, and they'd go out of their way to make mine and Sophia's life a living nightmare.
103
So we stayed out of their way as much as possible.
104
But then one evening, when I was coming home after getting groceries, I saw two guys push some guy to the ground and grab his keys.
105
Hey, stop it!
106
The guys looked around, and I was shook.
107
Pedro?
108
Harrison?
109
Let's get out of here!
110
They hopped into the car and sped off.
111
Was Pedro crazy?
112
That night, I cornered Pedro in his room.
113
What the heck was that stunt you pulled today?
114
What I do is none of your business.
115
You're my younger brother.
116
Of course it's my business.
117
If you tell mom and dad anything, I'll tell them that Sofia has been tutoring you.
118
I couldn't afford to lose Sophia's friendship.
119
So, I kept my mouth shut and kept a close eye on Pedro.
120
I found out that he'd been failing his subjects in school, and he was missing classes to hang out with Harrison and his goons.
121
I was so frustrated that I thought my head was going to explode.
122
Maybe you should start a podcast to ease some of your frustration.
123
Talk to strangers about my story?
124
That'll be weird.
125
Sometimes, strangers make the best listeners.
126
That night, Sophia helped me set up an anonymous podcast using her phone.
127
I went by the name Raven, and it felt so good to get so many things off my chest.
128
But what felt even better was reading the comments encouraging me to follow my dreams despite my parents' unfair treatment.
129
They even encouraged me to open an online store and set up a GoFundMe to get started.
130
And soon, my clothes were being sold faster than I could make them.
131
Yeah, I set up a secret workshop in Sophia's basement where I worked at night.
132
Over the next two years, it was a roller coaster.
133
First, Harrison was arrested for pickpocketing, and his father shipped him off to the Navy.
134
When he left, Pedro got a hundred times worse, and he was even kicked out of school.
135
And he continued to hang out with the wrong crowd, and my parents always made excuses for him.
136
But my life was super awesome.
137
I saved up enough money to get into the most prestigious fashion school in the country.
138
The only thing left to do was to send in my application which required me to create any design of my choice.
139
You've got this, bestie!
140
I'm rooting for you!
141
Over the next two months, I worked endlessly to create the most beautiful ball gown known to man.
142
I needed to get into this school!
143
I had something to prove to myself.
144
A few nights before the submission of my dress, while at Sophia's, I saw Pedro enter her parents' bedroom.
145
I snuck up to the door and peeked through the crack.
146
I watched in shock as Pedro was stuffing his pockets with jewelry.
147
Pedro, what on earth are you doing?
148
Pedro gave me one look and jumped through the window like a frog.
149
Sofia and her parents had been too good to me to let Pedro get away with this.
150
I ran home, but when I opened the door, the confrontation did an uno reverse on me.
151
Dad glared at me as he was holding a necklace in his hand.
152
Camilia, why was this in your dresser?
153
As if on cue, Pedro walked into the room to examine the necklace.
154
Wait, isn't that Sophia's mother's?
155
You should know, since you stole it.
156
Pedro told us that he saw you take this.
157
I didn't steal anything.
158
It was Pedro.
159
I just don't understand where we went wrong with you.
160
Me?
161
Pedro's the one who got kicked out of school.
162
Genius in my butt.
163
We also found cash hidden under the floorboards.
164
Where did you steal that from?
165
I froze.
166
How did they...
167
My eyes met Pedro's and an evil glint flashed over his eyes.
168
That's my money.
169
I earned it.
170
Stop lying, Camillia.
171
I think it's time to teach Little Miss Fashionista a lesson that she will never forget.
172
Pedro, bring the dress.
173
Dress?
174
What dress?
175
The words stuck in my throat when I saw Pedro return with my submission dress.
176
I watched in horror as Mom lit the fireplace and took the dress from Pedro.
177
Mom, please, don't!
178
You will learn your place in this family, Camelia.
179
My mother threw my dress in the fireplace, and it lit up quicker than a barbecue on Independence Day.
180
I tried to get it out, but Dad and Pedro held me back as I kicked and screamed.
181
After a while, my dress was nothing but ashes.
182
As an avalanche of tears ran down my face, I knew that my time in this family was up.
183
I wanted to attack my parents and Pedro, but I decided to pack my bags and I went to Sophia's.
184
That night, after bawling my eyes out, I did a live podcast and revealed to my listeners what I had just endured under the hands of my parents.
185
This time, I used their real names.
186
Yep, I was done being the nice guy.
187
By the next morning, my parents were chased out of the neighborhood, and the rich lady Sophia's mom worked for pulled some strings, and she got me another submission date.
188
Bestie, this dress is even better than the last one.
189
I have to admit, I really did outdo myself.
190
About two weeks later, I received a letter in the mail.
191
Beads of sweat ran down my forehead.
192
With trembling fingers, I opened the letter and my jaw dropped.
193
What does it say?
194
I got accepted into the fashion school.
195
Yes!
196
I felt as though I were on cloud nine.
197
Over the next four years, while I was away at school, Sophia went to a community college.
198
I worked hard and came out at the top of my class.
199
I earned a junior position in a fashion company.
200
I even convinced Sophia's dad to apply as a manager there, and he got the job!
201
It wasn't long after they were able to move into a nice place.
202
I was finally living my dream.
203
One night, after one of the company's shows, I spotted my parents in the hallway waiting for me.
204
What are you guys doing here?
205
I see you're a fashion designer.
206
I'm so proud of you.
207
I'm so proud of you.
208
Words I always wanted to hear my parents say, but I knew they weren't sincere.
209
Why are you here?
210
Dad shifted uncomfortably.
211
Pedro's in trouble.
212
He and some of his friends got caught breaking into a bank and we need money to bail him out.
213
And after everything you and mom did to me, you think that I would help you?
214
Sweetheart, we're family.
215
And that's what families do.
216
They help each other out.
217
But where was my family growing up?
218
Where were you when I needed you?
219
Are you going to help or not?
220
Not.
221
Had you done your job as parents and parented Pedro instead of letting him wrap you around his finger, He wouldn't be in a jail cell now!
222
As I looked across the room, I saw Sophia and her parents waiting for me.
223
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to join my real family.
224
I pushed past my parents and walked toward the people who helped me and never turned their backs on me.
225
Family is not just about blood, but those who stood by you through thick and thin.
226
Have I told you guys how amazing you are?
227
Not recently, no. You guys are amazing.
228
So are you, bestie.
229
I love you, and I'm so proud of you.
230
I love you too.

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.
