2
the big bad wolf made two antennae from the branch of a tree and two wings from its large leaves.
3
He he he he!
4
I look like those cute butterflies who are friends with goats!
5
Now let me trick that little goat and swallow him with a great appetite!
6
Help!
7
No, no!
8
I am not a wolf!

25
Three...
26
When the baby goat opened his eyes, he saw the bad wolf flapping his wings right to left.
27
Baa!
28
You really can fly!
29
But the branch, which could not carry the weight of the wolf, broke.
30
And when the wolf fell to the ground, one of his wings flew away.
31
Oh, your wing is broken!
32
Let me go call for help!
33

Bad Wolf Jack and Baby Go came to a place in the forest full of bouncy leaves.
42
The wolf climbed onto one of the bouncy leaves.
43
He jumped, jumped and flew into the air.
44
The goat that was watching the wolf was fascinated by that.
45
The bad wolf then came to the goat.
46
He wanted to eat him right there.
47
But at that moment, a crow flew and landed on the antenna on the wolf's head.
48
Aaaaah!
49
A crow!
50
Help!
51
I don't like crows at all!
52
Go!
53
Hey!
54
Go!
55
The wolf shook his head quickly, and the crow took the antenna from his head and flew away.
56
Aaaaah!
57
The crow took your antenna!
58
So what's gonna happen now?
59
There are also butterflies with one wing and one antenna, baby goat!

61
Really?
62
Yes!
63
Let me take you to the cave where they live so you can see for yourself!
64
Yeah, why not?
65
I'm curious about them!
66
Besides, whoever enters the cave learns to fly!

What?
68
I want to fly too!

Very cool!
70
Very cool!

73
Hearing the voices of the goats, the wolf was immediately alert.
74
Aha!
75
There are more goats out there.
76
I'll go and get them here, too.
77
The wolf wanted to jump on the goats, but got tangled in the sticky threads at the entrance of the den.

Help!
80
Help!

Hedgehog enthusiastically accepted the sneaky hyena's request, and they set out together for the teacher's day camp.
116
Hector had a tough time when they got to camp, because wherever he looked, he saw tiny little animals that he could devour.
117
After a while, the sun was gone, and the sky began to shine with stars.
118
The sneaky hyena Hector was lurking behind a lawn to prey on the teacher and student animals sitting around the campfire.

the baby hedgehog finally found the camp with the light of the North Star.
128
However, he was stunned by what he saw.
129
No!
130
He is not a teacher!
131
I was deceived!
132
The hedgehog started throwing the needles on his back at Hector so fast that he trapped him in a tiny space.
133
The hyena, who couldn't move from where he was, cried out in a hurry.
134
Help!
135
Let me go!
136
Okay, I promise I won't hurt you.
137
I will leave the camp immediately.
138
The hedgehog slowly approached the hyena.
139
I shouldn't have trusted you.
140
You're not a teacher.
141
You're a sneaky hyena.
142

143
or I'll build a more dangerous cage with needles on my

and the poor troll was getting exceedingly tired of eating apples
146
and grass for a very long time he was very hungry shortly after
147
that the slightly A lot of footsteps of the eldest brother was able to be heard on the bridge.
148
The troll did not stop, and with a fury, he had blocked the great thing Ballygoat's way.
149
Tell me who are you, and what are you doing on my bridge?
150
The big goat said that he wanted to cross the river
151
and meet up with his brothers who were already on the other side grazing the grass.
152
But I won't allow you to pass, said the troll again, because I have been waiting for hours.
153
I've been standing here the entire day waiting to devour you.
154
Just as the troll was about to catch the great big billy goat, he said, I am incredibly dirty.
155
If you eat me now, you will get sick.
156
Let me go and wash myself in the river.
157
And then eat me.
158
Then you won't get sick. And then...
159
He slowly made his way to the edge of the bridge, unable to stand the hunger any longer.
160
The troll did not listen to the goat and he started running towards him.
161
After the trail started running, the great big billy goat decided to move aside, and the trail fell into the river.
162
I'll get you.

Days chase days.

Finally, Jackals and Pandas made it to the finals.
168
But before the final match, the Jackals were at work again for trickery.
169
A player from their team secretly threw itching powder in the nose of Panda P.
170
When Panda P, whose nose was red from itching on the match day, said that he would not be able to play in the match, Morudana was alarmed.
171
Finally, he thought, made his decision and went to Resi.
172
Get ready, you will play too!
173
But, but you said, are you sure you want me to play in the match?
174
I have no choice, kid.
175
We can't play with a missing player in this match.
176
When Resi realized that the captain did not trust her, she got very upset and started to cry under a tree.
177
As she was crying, she heard a voice through the bushes.
178
Viggo, the captain of the jackals, was talking to the star player Kampala with a bottle in his hand.
179
Jackal Grandpa made the potion in the bottle.
180
It will give you ten cheetah powers, and you will run faster than anyone else when you drink it.
181
As soon as Resi heard this, she immediately went to Murudana and excitedly told what she had heard.
182
Such a thing is not possible.
183
Stop making things up and go put on your jersey.
184
Ressi sadly went to the dressing room.
185
It was game time.
186
Ten minutes later, Ressi passed between the two jackals and faced the goalkeeper.
187
With a hard hit, she sent the ball between the goalkeeper's legs into the net once again.
188
And everyone began to admire this little panda Then,
189
Moradano went to the bushes without telling anyone While searching around,
190
he saw the potion bottle Ressi was talking about on the ground What?
191
Ressi was right!
192
I found this bottle in the bushes where you said It's true what you said,
193
the jackals cheated As the team players looked around in surprise after hearing what was going on,
194
Muradana took out the empty potion bottle and gave it to the referee wolf.
195
The referee wolf rushed over to the jackals and kicked them out of the jungle cup football tournament.
196
Open the door and let me in.
197
If you don't, I'll huff and puff and blow your house in.
198
You can't do anything to me.
199
My house is steady enough.
200
And so the wolf huffed and puffed and he blew his house in.
201
But with great effort, the little piglet managed to get away
202
and off he ran over to his brother's house made from tree branches.
203
He knocked on the door and when the middle piglet opened the door, the little piglet threw himself inside the house.
204
Hey, close the door!
205
The wolf can come in here!
206
Don't worry, he can't do anything to us in this house.
207
After a while, the wolf came by the second piglet's wooden house and yelled inside.
208
Open the door and let me in!
209
If you don't, I'll huff and puff and blow your house in.
210
You can't blow my house in!
211
And so the wolf puffed and puffed and he blew his house in and brought it down.
212
Both piglets ran to the third piglet's house and barely got away from the wolf.
213
Brother, the wolf is going this way.
214
What are we going to do?
215
The oldest piglet answered, very sure of himself.
216
Don't worry, the wolf cannot come in this house.
217
A little later, the starving wolf came by the third piglet's house of bricks and stone and yelled to the three piglets.
218
Open the door and let me in.
219
If you don't, I'll huff and puff and blow your house in.
220
Don't you even try, you bad wolf!
221
You cannot come in this house!
222
The wolf got very angry.
223
He huffed and puffed, but nothing happened.
224
He could not bring his house down.
225
He tried and tried, but he couldn't move one single brick.
226
Finally, being exhausted, the wolf decided to try another way to go in.
227
He saw the chimney up on the roof and started to climb.
228
Realising that the wolf was going to climb up on the roof and come down the chimney,
229
the piglet quickly lit up the fireplace right under the chimney and put a big bucket of water on the woods.
230
The wolf barely climbed up the chimney and threw himself in.
231
and went straight into the boiling bucket.
232
Ah, help!
233
Help, I'm burning!
234
Save me!

Ah, help!
236
Finally, being free from the wolf, the piglets hugged each other.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud โ like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1โ2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency โ making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
