1
The great bronze bell of St. Jude's Church tolled three times in the heavy London fog.
2
On the wet pavement of High Holborn, a watchmaker lay beneath an iron lamppost.
3
His shop door stood wide open behind him.
4
Thick white vapor drifted into the dark passage of the shop.
5
Inside, a hundred pendulums swung back and forth, ticking together in a slow, frightening rhythm.
6
The fallen man was Mr. Tobias Finch.
7
He was seventy years old.
8
His skin had turned a faint, chalky white.
9
In his left hand, he held an empty glass oil bottle.
10
In his right hand, he held an open telegram.
11
The message contained only three words.
12
The bell rings.
13
Inspector Stanley of Bow Street stood over the body.
14
He blew warm breath into his cold hands.
15
He looked toward the street corner with evident relief.
16
Two men were walking quickly through the yellow mist.
17
Sherlock Holmes wore a long black traveling cloak and a woolen scarf.
18
I followed close behind him with my medical bag.
19
We had not come from Baker Street.
20
We had spent the entire night at the docks examining foreign shipping crates.
21
Thank heavens you were near, Mr. Holmes, Stanley said quietly.
22
The patrol found him ten minutes ago.
23
He was breathing when they arrived.
24
He died without speaking a single word.
25
Look at his throat.
26
There is no mark upon it.
27
Look at his pockets.
28
His gold pocket watch is still ticking.
29
His wallet is filled with 20 -pound notes.
30
No thief has touched him.
31
Holmes knelt instantly upon the damp flagstones.
32
He did not touched the dead man's face or chest.
33
Instead, he leaned over the iron lamppost itself.
34
He drew his pocket lens from beneath his cloak.
35
He examined the metal base of the post, inch by inch.
36
A strange place for an old tradesman to die, Holmes murmured.
37
He was working late.
38
His green apron is still tied around his waist.
39
Why did he run out into the freezing street without his hat?
40
Why did he carry his small brass oiler into the night air?
41
Perhaps he felt faint and needed air, Inspector Stamley suggested.
42
Old hearts stop suddenly in this dreadful autumn weather.
43
Look at his boots, Inspector, Holmes replied.
44
He pointed with his long, thin index finger.
45
The right boot has wet lime on the heel.
46
The left boot has yellow coal dust on the toe.
47
He did not run into the street for air.
48
He was running toward the church across the square.
49
He was running in sheer terror.
50
Holmes took the telegram from the dead man's stiff fingers.
51
He held it up to the yellow gaslight of the streetlamp.
52
Handed in at the Charing Cross telegraph office at 8 o 'clock yesterday evening, Holmes read.
53
No sender name is given.
54
The bell rings.
55
A curious warning, Watson.
56
What do you make of his physical state?
57
I knelt down and placed my fingers upon the dead man's neck.
58
His flesh was already losing its warmth.
59
His pupils were strangely dilated, wide and black.
60
There was a faint, pleasant smell lingering in his white beard, like roasted almonds mixed with sweet pear juice.
61
He did not die of heart failure, Holmes, I said firmly.
62
Look at the dark purple color beneath his fingernails.
63
His breathing stopped before his heart gave out.
64
Yet there are no burns on his lips.
65
If he swallowed poison, he took it without knowing it.
66
He did not swallow it, Holmes said.
67
He lifted the empty glass oil bottle that had rolled near the gutter.
68
The stopper was missing.
69
A thin film of amber liquid coated the inner glass.
70
Holmes brought the mouth of the file to his nose, inhaled very slightly,
71
and pulled it away at once prussic acid in a volatile ester an insidious deadly vapor
72
but how did it reach his lungs while he stood beside this iron lamppost let us enter the shop
73
The clockmaker's shop was narrow, dark, and filled with dust.
74
Tables stood against every wall, covered in brass gears, steel springs, and glass domes.
75
On the back workbench, an enormous grandfather clock stood with its wooden case completely stripped of its dial.
76
It was a magnificent piece of 17th century work, carved with strange figures of running beasts and winged cherubs.
77
Holmes lit a small wax match.
78
He moved directly to the large clock.
79
Finch was a master of antique clocks, he said.
80
Look at the tools on the velvet cloth.
81
Fine files, bone oilers, and special steel tweezers.
82
He was repairing the striking mechanism of this ancient machine.
83
A low sound came from the shadows near the staircase.
84
A young man stepped forward into the dim light.
85
He had red eyes, disheveled brown hair, and trembling hands.
86
He was dressed in a dark wool suit, but his cuffs were torn and ink -stained.
87
Who are you?
88
Inspector Stanley demanded, reaching for his whistle.
89
Why are you hiding in this house?
90
I am Martin Vance, the young man stammered.
91
His voice shook with grief.
92
I am Mr. Finch's nephew and his chief apprentice.
93
I lived upstairs in the attic room.
94
I came down when I heard the patrol shouting in the street outside.
95
Holmes turned his piercing gray eyes upon the young apprentice.
96
You were awake at three in the morning, Mr. Vance?
97
You are fully dressed, yet your collar is unbuttoned.
98
You have fresh oil on your right sleeve." I could not sleep, sir," Vance said, looking down at his sleeve in dismay.
99
My uncle was in great danger.
100
He knew it.
101
For three weeks he received strange letters.
102
They came every Tuesday.
103
They said the past was returning to claim its own.
104
Yesterday, this clock arrived from an estate in Sussex.
105
When my uncle saw it, he turned pale as linen.
106
He told me to lock all the outer doors.
107
He said that if the bronze bell of St. Jude's struck three times in the night, his life would be over.
108
Did he mention any names?
109
Holmes inquired.
110
He spoke often of a man named Nicholas Drake, Vance answered.
111
They were partners forty years ago in South Africa.
112
They traded in diamonds and ancient artifacts.
113
There was a terrible dispute over a discovered horde.
114
Drake went to prison in Cape Town, while my uncle returned to London with a fortune in gold.
115
Drake swore he would have his revenge before his seventy -first year ended.
116
Drake's seventy -first birthday was two days ago.
117
A common tale of colonial greed, Inspector Stanley said with a nod.
118
Drake has followed him to England.
119
He found his shop.
120
He sent the telegram and struck him down in the street.
121
A neat explanation, Inspector, Holmes said dryly.
122
It has only one serious defect.
123
It completely fails to account for the physical facts.
124
Holmes walked around the back of the Great Grandfather clock.
125
He ran his fingers along the dark oak panels.
126
Suddenly he stopped.
127
He knelt upon the wooden floorboards and looked beneath the bottom pedestal.
128
Watson, bring the candle closer, Holmes called out.
129
I brought the candle to the floor.
130
Holmes pointed to a tiny hole drilled through the oak base.
131
Beside the hole lay three tiny granules of gray wax.
132
Someone drilled this hole within the last twenty -four hours, Holmes observed.
133
The wood shavings are fresh and light -colored.
134
They have not gathered dust.
135
And look at this wire.
136
A very fine steel piano wire runs through the floorboards down into the cellar beneath our feet.
137
Holmes rose to his feet.
138
He did not wait for Inspector Stanley.
139
He took the brass candle holder and opened the low door leading to the cellar steps.
140
We followed him down into the damp, cold cellar.
141
The cellar was stacked with old packing crates, wine bottles, and iron clock weights.
142
The thin piano wire hung straight down from the ceiling joists.
143
It was attached to a heavy lead counterweight resting on a wooden shelf.
144
Beneath the weight was a shattered glass bulb.
145
A strong, bitter smell of crushed almonds hung heavily in the subterranean air.
146
Do not breathe deeply, Watson, Holmes warned.
147
Step back toward the cellar door.
148
The air here was recently filled with poison.
149
A lethal device was set here.
150
But why did it fail to kill the old man in his workshop above?
151
Holmes examined the shelf with extreme care.
152
He did not touch the shattered glass with his bare skin.
153
He used a pair of brass tweezers from his pocket to lift a small piece of torn paper
154
that lay near the fragments.
155
It was a fragment of a railway label from the London and Northwestern line.
156
On it were written the letters, Eitan Station, Derbyshire.
157
Fascinating, Holmes said, his eyes glittering in the candle flames.
158
The killer planned an automatic execution.
159
When the grandfather clock struck midnight, the interior hammer was intended to pull this wire.
160
The wire was meant to drop the lead weight.
161
The weight would crush the glass bulb of liquid gas.
162
The fumes would rise through the floorboards and kill Tobias Finch as he worked at his table.
163
Then why did he die outside in the street three hours later, I asked.
164
Because the mechanism failed, Holmes replied.
165
Or rather, it was interrupted.
166
Look at this wire.
167
It was cut with pliers near the top choice.
168
Finch found the wire himself.
169
He realized what had been prepared for him.
170
He cut the wire, ran to the cellar, found the broken bulb, and realized someone was operating against him from the street.
171
But why did he run out to the lamppost?
172
Holmes climbed the wooden stairs back into the shop.
173
His movements were swift and energetic.
174
He walked over to Martin Vance, who stood pale and silent between two constables.
175
Mr. Vance, Holmes said, show me your hands.
176
The apprentice held out his hands.
177
His palms were rough and stained with dark lubricating oil.
178
Across his right palm ran a thin red diagonal cut.
179
How did you get that cut, Mr. Vance?
180
Holmes asked quietly.
181
I cut myself on a sharp steel mainspring yesterday afternoon, the young man answered quickly.
182
I was winding an antique French carriage clock.
183
Indeed, Holmes said, a mainspring creates a jagged, uneven wound.
184
This is a clean, sharp incision, exactly like the mark left by a taut piano wire slipping through desperate fingers.
185
Are you accusing me?
186
Vance cried out.
187
He was my uncle.
188
He gave me shelter.
189
He taught me my trade.
190
He left me this entire business in his will.
191
Precisely, Holmes said.
192
He left you the business, and you had accumulated 300 pounds of gambling debts at the Holborn Gaming Dens.
193
Do not look so astonished.
194
The red gaming tokens of the Golden Crown Club are visible in your open waistcoat pocket.
195
You were desperate for money.
196
Your uncle refused to pay your debts.
197
He threatened to alter his will this very morning.
198
That is a lie!
199
Vance shouted.
200
It is the truth, Holmes replied coldly.
201
You invented Nicholas Drake.
202
You sent the warning letters from different post offices in London to terrify your uncle.
203
You bought the old grandfather clock from a broker in Sussex.
204
You rigged the poison bulb in the cellar.
205
But you made one critical mistake.
206
You did not understand your uncle's knowledge of antique machinery.
207
Tobias Finch opened the clock case last evening to clean the escapement.
208
He saw the extra wire.
209
He traced it to the cellar.
210
He cut it before midnight.
211
Your elaborate mechanical trap had completely failed.
212
If the trap failed, Mr. Holmes,
213
Inspector Stanley interrupted, how did Tobias Finch die at three in the morning beneath the street lamp?
214
That was the second trap, Holmes said, a far cruder but more effective device.
215
When Vance realized his uncle had discovered the wire, he knew he was in imminent danger of prison.
216
He had to act at once.
217
He ran up to the church tower of St. Jude's across the square.
218
He knew the church was open for midnight cleaning.
219
He struck the great bronze bell three times with a wooden mallet.
220
It was the signal that
221
Finch feared above all things.
222
Holmes turned toward the front doorway.
223
He stepped out onto the wet pavement and walked back to the iron lamppost.
224
He pointed to the hollow iron base of the column.
225
A small inspection door was fastened with a square brass screw.
226
Look here, Watson, Holmes said.
227
He took a heavy iron key from his pocket and loosened the brass screw.
228
He pulled open the small iron panel.
229
Inside the hollow lamppost was a small copper cylinder.
230
From the cylinder ran a fine rubber tube.
231
The tube went up the inside of the post to the gas lantern above.
232
A secondary supply, Holmes explained.
233
Vance knew that when the bell rang, his terrified uncle would run to the street to summon the night watchman.
234
The watchman always stands beneath this lamppost at three in the morning to mark his hourly route.
235
Vance had placed this cylinder of liquid poison inside the column two days ago.
236
He had connected it to a small spring lever on the inspection cover.
237
But the lever required a specific action to release the vapor.
238
What action?
239
I asked, looking in horror at the iron post.
240
The lamppost was unlit when the old man ran out, Holmes said.
241
Look at the burner above.
242
The glass dome is broken.
243
Finch was a clockmaker.
244
He understood gas fittings.
245
He saw that the streetlight was out.
246
He knew the watchman would not stop at a dark corner.
247
Finch took his small brass oiler and a box of matches.
248
He opened the inspection door to turn the main gas tap.
249
As he opened this panel, the spring depressed the valve of the cylinder.
250
A concentrated cloud of prussic vapor shot directly into his face.
251
He inhaled it in one single gasp.
252
He dropped his oiler, staggered back three paces, fell upon the stones, and perished in seconds.
253
Martin Vance gave a terrible cry.
254
He dropped to his knees on the shop floor.
255
He covered his face with his oil -stained hands.
256
I did not want to do it, he wept.
257
The moneylenders were coming tomorrow.
258
They swore they would break my bones and throw me in the river.
259
I had to have the inheritance.
260
Take him away, Stanley, Holmes said sternly.
261
A man who uses subtle chemistry and clever mechanics to murder an aging benefactor deserves no pity from the law.
262
The constable seized Vance by the arms and dragged him out into the fog.
263
Inspector Stanley stayed behind to seal the shop doors.
264
He shook Holmes' hand with great warmth.
265
You have unraveled an impossible riddle, Mr. Holmes, the inspector said.
266
Without you, we would have chased the ghost of Nicholas Drake all the way to South Africa.
267
Observation, my dear Stanley, Holmes remarked quietly.
268
Observation and a little knowledge of human terror.
269
A man who constructs an elaborate trap always leaves his own signature upon the work.
270
Good morning, Inspector.
271
An hour later, the fog began to lift over London.
272
The pale morning sun broke through the gray clouds turning the roofs of the city into shining sheets of gold
273
holmes and i sat inside an all -night coffee tavern near covent garden two large plates of buttered toast
274
and hot coffee stood before us on the scrubbed wooden table holmes leaned back in his wooden chair.
275
He tapped the tabletop with his long, slender fingers.
276
The dark shadow of fatigue had left his sharp features.
277
His mind was resting after the intense exertion of the night.
278
It was a very instructive case, Watson, he said between sips of black coffee.
279
It illustrates how an amateur criminal always overburdens his plan with unnecessary artifice.
280
Vance was not content to use a simple blow or a common knife.
281
He was a mechanic.
282
He thought in terms of springs, levers, wires, and timers.
283
He wanted the murder to look like an impossible act of fate.
284
He wanted Nicholas Drake's curse to appear real.
285
The use of the church bell was particularly cruel, I remarked, buttering a slice of toast.
286
He used the old man's superstitious dread to draw him directly to the fatal spot.
287
Cruelty and cowardice invariably walk hand in hand, Holmes said.
288
Did you observe the telegram?
289
That was Vance's final touch of psychological preparation.
290
He sent it from Charing Cross while his uncle was eating his solitary dinner.
291
It ensured that the old man's nerves would be strained to the breaking point
292
when the bell finally told in the early hours.
293
When a man is terrified, his logical faculties are suspended.
294
He acts on instinct alone.
295
Tobias Finch ran to the one place where he expected to find human protection, the Watchman's Post.
296
And the lime on his right boot, I asked.
297
You mentioned it before we entered the shop.
298
A simple deduction, Watson, Holmes answered with a faint smile.
299
The churchyard of St. Jude's is currently undergoing repairs.
300
The masons have left heaps of unslaked lime near the eastern gate.
301
When Finch heard the bell, he first ran toward the church to confront the ringer.
302
But the church door was bolted from the inside.
303
He turned back in despair.
304
He stepped into the wet lime by the gate.
305
Then he saw the unlit lamppost across the square.
306
He knew the watchman was due.
307
He ran to light the burner so the officer would see him.
308
Every step he took was dictated by his nephew's cunning design.
309
And what will become of the shop?
310
I asked.
311
The crown will seize it, Holmes replied.
312
The antique clocks will be sold at public auction.
313
It is a sad end for a craft that requires such patience and precision.
314
Tobias Finch spent fifty years measuring time with beautiful instruments.
315
In the end, his own apprentice used time as an instrument of destruction.
316
Holmes finished his coffee and rose from the bench.
317
He wrapped his long -traveling cloak around his shoulders.
318
Come, Watson.
319
The morning post will have arrived at Baker Street by now.
320
Mrs. Hudson will have prepared a fresh fire.
321
We have spent twelve hours in the fog and the damp.
322
A warm room and a quiet pipe are the only remedies for such a night.
323
We walked out into the awakening streets of London.
324
The market carts were already rattling toward Covent Garden, laden with fresh cabbages, apples, and flowers from the countryside.
325
The heavy mist had dissolved into a bright autumn day.
326
As we turned into the Strand to hail a four -wheeled cab, the bells of London were striking eight o 'clock in sweet,
327
clear harmony across the roofs.
328
The dark puzzle of High Holborn was ended, and another villain was safely lodged behind the stone walls of Bow Street.

이 영상으로 연습하는 방법
- 먼저 말하지 않고 영상을 끝까지 듣고 모르는 단어를 적어 둡니다.
- 보통 속도로 한 문장씩 섀도잉하고, 화자의 리듬과 맞을 때까지 반복합니다.
- 자신의 목소리를 녹음해 원본과 비교하고, wire, inspector, uncle 같은 단어에 특히 주의합니다.
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.
