2
In a small district in New York, many artists lived in a building.
3
Two young women, Sue and Johnsy, shared a studio on the top floor.
4
They had come from different places, but they both loved art and food, so they became great friends.
5
In November, a cold and invisible visitor arrived in the city, pneumonia.
6
It struck many people and poor Johnsy became very ill.
7
She lay in her bed, barely moving, and looked through the small window at the brick wall of the house next door.
8
One morning, the doctor spoke to Sue in the hallway.
9
She has one chance in ten, he said.
10
But that chance depends on her desire to live.
11
Your friend has decided that she is not going to get better.
12
Is she worrying about something?
13
She wanted to paint the Bay of Naples one day, Sue said.
14
but she has nothing else on her mind.
15
Does she have anything worth living for?
16
the doctor asked.
17
A man, perhaps?
18
A man?
19
Sue said, sounding annoyed.
20
Is a man worth more than the sun?
21
No, doctor, there is nothing like that.
22
After the doctor left, Sue went into the room with her drawing board.
23
She was whistling, trying to be cheerful.
24
Suddenly she heard a low sound johnsy was whispering.
25
She counted backwards.
26
Eleven, ten, nine.
27
Sue looked out of the window.
28
She saw an old ivy vine climbing the brick wall.
29
The cold autumn wind had blown almost all the leaves away.
30
What is it, dear?
31
Sue asked.
32
Six, Johnsy said, her voice weak.
33
They are falling faster now.
34
Three days ago there were almost a hundred.
35
It makes my head ache to count them.
36
But now it's easy.
37
There goes another one.
38
Only five left now.
39
Five what, sweetheart?
40
Leaves on the ivy vine.
41
When the last one falls, I must go too.
42
I've known it for three days.
43
Oh, what a load of rubbish, Sue said, trying to sound firm.
44
The doctor said you have a good chance of getting better.
45
Try to eat some soup.
46
There goes another one, Johnsy said.
47
No, I don't want any soup.
48
Only four left now.
49
I want to see the last one fall before it gets dark.
50
Then I'll go too.
51
Sue went downstairs to visit Mr. Bearman, an old painter who lived on the ground floor.
52
He was a fierce-looking little man who was a failure in art.
53
For 40 years he had talked about painting a masterpiece, but he had never started it.
54
Sue told him about Johnsy's silly idea.
55
Behrman shouted, Are you mad?
56
Is it possible that anyone could be so stupid as to die because leaves fall from a vine?
57
I will not paint.
58
I am going up to see Johnsy.
59
They went upstairs.
60
Johnsy was sleeping.
61
They went into the other room and looked out of the window at the ivy vine.
62
They looked at each other for a moment without speaking.
63
A cold rain was falling, mixed with snow.
64
Behrman sat down and started to paint.
65
The next morning, Johnsy woke up and immediately asked Sue to pull up the curtain.
66
Sue was afraid, but she did it.
67
The ivy vine was still there and look.
68
On the wall against the brick there was still one leaf.
69
It was the last one.
70
It was still dark green near the stem but its edges were yellow.
71
It hung bravely from a branch, twenty feet above the ground.
72
It is the last one, said Johnsy.
73
I thought it would fall during the night.
74
I heard the wind.
75
But the day passed and even through the night the wind blew but the leaf stayed.
76
The next morning, Johnsy looked out again.
77
The leaf was still there.
78
She called Sue to her side.
79
I've been a bad girl, Sue, Johnsy whispered.
80
Something made that last leaf stay there to show me how wicked it was to want to die.
81
It is a sin to want to die.
82
Please, bring me some soup.
83
An hour later, the doctor arrived.
84
You are doing well, he said.
85
In a few days, you will be out of danger.
86
Later that day, Sue went to see Behrman.
87
He was in his room, very sick.
88
He only had pneumonia for two days.
89
The janitor found him in his room, helpless and in pain.
90
His shoes and clothes were soaking wet and cold.
91
They couldn't understand where he had been on such a terrible night.
92
Then they found a lantern that was still lit A ladder
93
that had been moved And some brushes with green and yellow paint on them Look out of the window,
94
dear, Sue said to Johnsy Look at that ivy leaf on the wall
95
Didn't you wonder why it never fluttered or moved when the wind blew?
96
Oh, darling, it is Behrman's masterpiece.
97
He painted it there the night the last leaf fell.
98

107
going to fail the exam what a load of rubbish you've studied really hard.
108
Fierce looking.
109

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.
