1
Good.
2
It is filming.
3
Good morrow, my sweet peasants.
4
I am Queen Elizabeth I.
5
Yes, this is what I really look like.
6
Do not be rude in the comments section, my peasants.
7
Oh well.
8
YouTube, here we are.
9
Who knew you would love me that much?
10
Flattered.
11
Get out!
12
Today, Spain is invading England with about 130 ships.
13
So, busy day, and I have not even had breakfast.
14
And at the end, I will show you something I have never showed anyone.
15
This week, Spain invades.
16
Drake loses a lantern.
17
I give a speech.
18
Let me explain.
19
This is how England sends a message.
20
One fire, then the next hill, then the next.
21
All the way to London.
22
Breathe.
23
When the Spanish ships are seen, men light fires on the hills, hill to hill, all the way to London.
24
It is like your text message, my ladies explained it. So they are here. So who is invading?
25
Philip, the King of Spain.
26
the most powerful king in the world.
27
Years ago, he was married to my sister, Mary, when she was Queen of England.
28
When she died, he asked to marry me.
29
I said no. That was 30 years ago.
30
He remembers.
31
Also, he is Catholic.
32
I am Protestant.
33
Two kinds of Christian.
34
Right now people fight wars over which one is right.
35
He wants to take my crown and make England Catholic again.
36
And my sailors have been borrowing his gold from his ships for years.
37
So he is a little upset.
38
So he built a fleet, about 130 ships.
39
Armada is just the Spanish word for a fleet of warships.
40
They call it the great and most fortunate Armada.
41
Dead bold.
42
They set off in May, very proud, very grand.
43
Then a storm hit them, and they had to stop in Spain for repairs.
44
For a month.
45
Fortunate.
46
Our ships are small and fast.
47
Theirs are huge and slow.
48
So we poke them and sail away.
49
Their commander is the Duke of Medina Sedato.
50
When Philip chose him, he wrote back.
51
He said he gets seasick and has no experience at sea.
52
Philip said, go anyway.
53
Poor man.
54
Now, Francis Drake, a sea captain from a poor family in Devon.
55
The first Englishman to sail around the whole world, three years at sea.
56
The Spanish hate him.
57
I like him very much.
58
He is not in charge, by the way.
59
Lord Howard is.
60
Drake is second.
61
Drake sometimes forgets that.
62
And this is Philip, in his very dark room, signing things.
63
He has been planning this for years.
64
He needs a window.
65
This is Drake.
66
The Spanish have just been seen unchanging.
67
And he is still playing.
68
Or so he says.
69
Everyone says Drake finished his game of bowls first.
70
before going to fight.
71
Nobody wrote that down until many years later.
72
It sounds like something
73
Drake would say about Drake.
74
The Spanish call him
75
El Drage, the dragon.
76
I made him a knight on his own ship.
77
Last year, Drake sailed into the Spanish port of Cadene and burned their ships.
78
He called it singing the king of Spain's beard.
79
Sin means burn a little.
80
He also burned their barrel wood, so their new barrels leaked and their food went bad.
81
Very rude.
82
Very useful.
83
Cadiz, a port in Spain.
84
Last year, Drake sailed straight into their harbor and set fire to their ships.
85
Without asking.
86
Breathe.
87
Again.
88
They have been fighting all along the coast.
89
Our ships are smaller, faster.
90
He ran from the river.
91
Good news, though.
92
We have not lost one big ship.
93
Oh, and this.
94
At night, Drake had to lead our fleet with a big lantern.
95
So everyone could follow him in the dark.
96
He put the lantern out.
97
And went off to capture a Spanish ship.
98
Full of gold.
99
The whole fleet got lost.
100
Drake is a lot.
101
There.
102
The lantern.
103
Everyone follows the lantern.
104
And there goes the lantern.
105
Kate asked me tonight if I am afraid.
106
I said, I am the Queen.
107
A little.
108
But everyone is watching me.
109
If I am afraid, they are afraid.
110
The Spanish stopped at Calme, a port in France just across the sea, to wait for more soldiers.
111
So my admirals had an idea.
112
Fire.
113
Nobody was on those ships.
114
Only fire.
115
But they panicked.
116
They cut their anchors and ran.
117
Then the wind pushed them all the way around Scotland and Ireland.
118
Not a nice holiday.
119
Robert Doveley.
120
I call him Robin.
121
We have known each other since we were children.
122
When my sister was queen, we were both prisoners in the tower.
123
Everyone thought I would marry him.
124
I did not.
125
I am married to England.
126
But he is the man I trust most.
127
So he commands my army.
128
We did not know it was over.
129
We thought their army might still come across the sea.
130
So I went to see my soldiers at Tilpen by the river,
131
on a horse in armour, over the dress.
132
I know I have the body of a weak and feebile woman,
133
but I have the heart and stomach of a king,
134
and of a king of England, too.
135
They cheered.
136
I may have enjoyed that.
137
Heart and stomach of a king means I may be a woman, but I am as brave as any king.
138
Robin organized all of this.
139
My Robin.
140
Only about half of their ships made it home to Spain.
141
Our friends in Holland made a medal.
142
It says, God blew and they were scattered.
143
He did.
144
Philip, if you are watching, still know.
145
My new portrait.
146
Ships behind me.
147
My hand on the world.
148
I asked for it to look natural.
149
A few weeks later, Robin died.
150
This was his last letter to me.
151
I wrote on it.
152
His last letter.
153
I keep it close.
154
So, Spain came, Spain left, England is still here. And so am I.

157
My ladies say it is very important.
158
Tell me in the comments, what next?
159
My sister Mary or Robin's party?
160
19 days can be anything.
161
He tried very hard
162
Good night, my sweet peasants

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
