Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens, Chapter One, A Boy Without a Home In a small town in England,
2
a baby boy was born in a workhouse, a place where poor people worked long hours for very little food.
3
The boy's mother was weak and sick, and she died, soon after giving birth.
4
No one knew her name or where she came from.
5
The baby was left alone, without a family or a home.
6
The kind doctor who helped deliver the baby felt sorry for him.
7
This child needs care, he said to the workers at the A, workhouse.
8
What shall we call him, one of the women suggested.
9
Let's name him Oliver Twist.
10
And so, Oliver Twist began his life.
11
From the very start, things were hard for him.
12
The workhouse was a cold and cruel place.
13
The children there were always hungry.
14
They worked all day and received only a small bowl of thin soup to eat.
15
If they complained, they were punished severely.
16
When Oliver turned nine years old, he became brave enough, or perhaps desperate enough, to ask for more food.
17
One evening, after finishing their meager meal, Oliver stood up and said timidly, Please, sir, I want some more.
18
The room fell silent.
19
Everyone stared at him in shock.
20
Asking for more food was unheard of in the workhouse.
21
The master of the workhouse turned red with anger.
22
What did you say?
23
He shouted.
24
I, I'm still hungry.
25
Oliver stammered.
26
Please, can I have more?
27
The master grabbed Oliver by the arm and dragged him out of the dining hall.
28
You ungrateful child, he yelled.
29
You will be punished for this.
30
From that day on, Oliver's life became even harder.
31
He was treated like a troublemaker and sent to do the hardest jobs.
32
The other children avoided him, afraid they would get into trouble, too.
33
But Oliver didn't mean any harm.
34
He was just a boy who wanted enough to eat.
35
Eventually, the workhouse decided they didn't want Oliver anymore.
36
They sent him to live with an undertaker named Mr. Sourberry.
37
Undertakers are people who prepare bodies for funerals, and Mr. Sourberry thought Oliver could help with his work.
38
At first, Oliver hoped his new life would be better.
39
But sadly, it wasn't.
40
Mr. Sourberry and his wife were cruel to Oliver.
41
They made him sleep in a dark, damp room and gave him scraps of food.
42
Their apprentice, Noah Claypole, teased Oliver constantly.
43
One day, Noah insulted Oliver's dead mother, calling her names and saying terrible things about her.
44
Oliver couldn't take it anymore.
45
He fought back, hitting Noah and yelling, Don't!
46
Talk about my mother like that!
47
Noah ran to Mrs. Sourberry, crying and telling lies about what happened.
48
The Sourberries were furious.
49
They beat Oliver and locked him in the coal cellar as punishment.
50
That night, Oliver made a decision.
51
He couldn't stay in such a cruel place any longer.
52
Quietly, he packed a few belongings and slipped out of the house while everyone was asleep
53
For the first time in his life,
54
Oliver was free But he had no idea where to go He walked for miles Heading toward London,
55
a city he had heard about from the other boys at the workhouse They said it was big
56
and full of opportunities Maybe, just maybe, Oliver could find a better life there.
57
As he walked, Oliver felt both scared and hopeful.
58
He had never been outside the town before, and the road ahead seemed endless.
59
Would London bring him safety or more danger?
60
Chapter Two, The Road to London.
61
Oliver walked for days his feet sore and his stomach empty.
62
He had never been so tired in his life, but he kept moving forward.
63
Every step brought him closer to London, and perhaps a chance at a better life.
64
As he traveled, Oliver met a few kind people along the way.
65
One woman gave him a piece of bread when she saw how hungry he was.
66
Another man let him rest in a barn for the night.
67
These small acts of kindness gave Oliver hope, even though the road was hard.
68
Finally, after many long miles, Oliver arrived at the edge of London.
69
The city was enormous, with tall buildings, crowded streets, and carts rumbling everywhere.
70
People hurried past him, too busy to notice the thin, dirty boy standing wide -eyed.
71
At the sight of it all.
72
This must be the place, Oliver whispered to himself.
73
But where do I go now?
74
He wandered through the streets, feeling lost and overwhelmed.
75
The noise and chaos were unlike anything he had ever experienced.
76
Just as he began to feel hopeless, a boy about his age approached him.
77
The boy was cheerful and dressed in worn but colorful clothes.
78
Hello there, the boy said with a grin.
79
You look like you could use some help.
80
Oliver nodded shyly.
81
I'm looking for somewhere to stay, he admitted.
82
Do you know of a place?
83
The boy laughed.
84
Of course I do.
85
Follow me.
86
I'll take you to someone who can help.
87
The boy introduced himself as Jack Dawkins, though everyone called him the Artful Dodger.
88
He led Oliver through narrow alleys and bustling markets until they reached a rundown house.
89
Inside, an old man sat by the fire, smoking a pipe.
90
This is Fagin, the Dodger explained.
91
He takes care of us boys.
92
Fagin looked Oliver up and down, studying him closely.
93
Who's this?
94
He asked, his voice smooth and curious.
95
This is Oliver, the Dodger replied.
96
He needs a place to stay.
97
Fagin smiled warmly, or at least it seemed warm at first.
98
Welcome, my dear boy, he said.
99
You're safe here, we'll teach you how to make a living.
100
Oliver didn't fully understand what Fagin meant, but he was grateful to have shelter and food.
101
That night, he slept on a straw mattress in a corner of the room, surrounded by other boys.
102
For the first time in weeks, his belly was full, and he felt safe.
103
The next morning, Fagin gathered the boys around him.
104
Now then, he said, pulling out a box filled with shiny watches, handkerchiefs, and jewelry.
105
Let's see if our new friend Oliver can learn a trick or two.
106
The Dodger handed Oliver a handkerchief and showed him how to pickpocket, a way of stealing without being noticed.
107
Oliver watched nervously, unsure of what to do.
108
He didn't want to steal, but he also didn't want to anger Fagin or the others.
109
Later that day, the Dodger took Oliver into the streets to practice.
110
They followed a wealthy -looking man, and the Dodger expertly slipped a wallet from his pocket.
111
Then he nudged Oliver.
112
Your turn, he whispered.
113
Oliver hesitated.
114
He didn't want to hurt anyone or take something that wasn't his.
115
But before he could decide, the man turned suddenly and grabbed Oliver's arm.
116
Thief, the man shouted.
117
A crowd quickly gathered, pointing and shouting at Oliver.
118
The dodger disappeared into the crowd, leaving Oliver alone.
119
Terrified, Oliver tried to explain, but no one listened.
120
A police officer arrived and dragged him away.
121
At the courthouse, Oliver stood trembling before a judge.
122
Just as it seemed like he would be punished, a kind gentleman named Mr. Brownlow stepped forward.
123
He had witnessed the scene and believed.
124
Oliver was innocent.
125
He's just a child, Mr. Brownlow said firmly.
126
Look at him.
127
He's frightened and confused.
128
Surely he doesn't deserve this.
129
The judge agreed, and Oliver was released into Mr. Brownlow's care.
130
Grateful for the man's kindness, Oliver went home with him, hoping this might finally be the start of a better life.
131
But unknown to Oliver, Fagin and his gang weren't ready to let him go.
132
They had plans for him, plans that would soon bring danger back into his life.
133
What would happen next?
134
Would Oliver find safety with Mr. Brownlow?
135
Or would Fagin's gang catch up to him?
136
Chapter 3 A Kind Heart After his frightening encounter in the streets,
137
Oliver found himself in the care of Mr. Brownlow, a kind and gentle man who lived in a quiet part of London.
138
Mr. Brownlow's home was warm and welcoming, filled with books and soft furniture.
139
For the first time in his life, Oliver felt truly safe.
140
Mr. Brownlow had a housekeeper named Mrs. Bedwin, an elderly woman with a sweet smile and a motherly nature.
141
She took care of Oliver, feeding him hearty meals and making sure he rested properly.
142
You poor child, she said often, patting his head.
143
You've been through so much.
144
Oliver was grateful for their kindness.
145
He wanted to repay them somehow, but he didn't know how.
146
One day, Mr. Brownlow called him into the study.
147
Oliver, he said kindly, I'd like you to help me around the house.
148
Would you be willing to run errands or assist with small tasks?
149
Oliver nodded eagerly.
150
Yes, sir, I would love to help.
151
From that day on, Oliver worked hard to earn Mr. Brownlow's trust.
152
He delivered letters, cleaned books, and even helped Mrs. Bedwin with household chores.
153
In return, Mr. Brownlow taught him how to read and write.
154
For Oliver, this was a dream come true.
155
He had never imagined he could learn such things.
156
As the days passed, Oliver began to feel like part of the family.
157
But far away, Fagin and his gang were growing restless.
158
They hadn't forgotten about Oliver, or the fact that he knew, their secrets.
159
One evening, the artful Dodger and another boy named Charlie Bates sneaked into Mr. Brownlow's neighborhood to spy on Oliver.
160
When they saw how happy he looked, they returned to Fagin and reported what they had seen.
161
He's living with a rich man now, the Dodger said.
162
If we don't bring him back, he might tell someone about us.
163
Fagin frowned.
164
We can't.
165
Let that happen, he muttered.
166
Send Nancy to fetch him, she'll know what to do.
167
Nancy was a young woman who sometimes worked with Fagin's gang, though she wasn't as cruel as the others.
168
She cared for Oliver in her own way, and didn't want to see him hurt.
169
Still, she obeyed Fagin's orders and set out to find Oliver.
170
Next morning, while Oliver was running an errand for Mr. Brownlow, Nancy approached him on the street.
171
Oliver, she called softly.
172
Come with me, I need to talk to you.
173
Oliver recognized her from Fagin's house and hesitated.
174
What do you want?
175
He asked nervously.
176
It's important, Nancy insisted.
177
Please just come with me for a moment.
178
Reluctantly, Oliver followed her to a nearby alley.
179
There he saw Bill Sykes, a violent and dangerous man who worked with Fagin.
180
Bill grabbed Oliver roughly and tied his hands.
181
You're coming back.
182
With us, he growled.
183
Oliver struggled and cried out, but no one heard him.
184
Nancy watched silently, her heart heavy with guilt.
185
She hated seeing Oliver treated this way, but she feared what Bill and Fagin would do if she tried to stop them.
186
They dragged Oliver back to Fagin's hideout, where the old man greeted him with a sinister smile.
187
Welcome back, my dear boy.
188
Fagin said, did you think you could leave us so easily?
189
Oliver shook his head, tears streaming down his face.
190
Please let me go, he begged.
191
I won't tell anyone, I promise.
192
But Fagin didn't believe him.
193
You'll stay here until we decide what to do with you, he said coldly.
194
For days, Oliver was kept locked inside the dark, dirty room.
195
The other boys avoided him, afraid of Bill's temper.
196
Nancy visited him whenever she could, bringing him food and whispering words of comfort.
197
Don't lose hope, she told him.
198
I'll find a way to help you.
199
Meanwhile, Mr. Brownlow grew worried when Oliver didn't return.
200
He searched everywhere, asking neighbors and posting notices around town.
201
But no one had seen the boy.
202
Back at Fagin's, Nancy made a bold decision.
203
Late one night, she snuck out of the house and went to find Mr. Brownlow.
204
She knocked on his door, trembling with fear but determined to do the right thing.
205
Please, she said when Mr. Brownlow answered.
206
I know where Oliver is.
207
You must save him before it's too late.
208
Mr. Brownlow listened carefully as Nancy explained everything.
209
By the time she finished, he was already preparing to act.
210
Thank you for your bravery, he said.
211
We'll get Oliver back, I promise.
212
Nancy nodded, tears in her eyes.
213
Be careful, she warned.
214
Fagin and Bill are dangerous.
215
With Nancy's help, Mr. Brownlow devised a plan to rescue Oliver, but would they reach him in time?
216
And what would happen if Fagin discovered Nancy's betrayal?
217
Chapter 4 The Rescue The next morning, Mr. Brownlow wasted no time.
218
He gathered a group of trusted friends, including a kind doctor named Mr. Losburn, to help him rescue Oliver.
219
Nancy had told them exactly where Fagin's hideout was, a rundown, house in a dark part of London.
220
She warned them that Bill Sykes would be there too, and he was not someone to take lightly.
221
We must move quickly, Mr. Brownlow said firmly.
222
Oliver is in danger.
223
As they prepared for the rescue, Nancy stayed behind to keep watch over Oliver.
224
She knew that if Fagan or Bill found out she had betrayed them, her life would be in grave danger.
225
But she didn't care.
226
She couldn't.
227
Stand by while an innocent boy suffered.
228
That evening, Nancy slipped into the room where Oliver was being held.
229
Listen carefully, she whispered.
230
Help is coming.
231
You must be ready to leave as soon as you hear a signal.
232
Oliver looked at her with wide eyes.
233
Who's coming?
234
He asked softly.
235
Mr. Brownlow, Nancy replied.
236
He hasn't.
237
Forgotten about you.
238
Tears filled Oliver's eyes.
239
Thank you, he said.
240
You're risking so much for me.
241
Nancy smiled sadly.
242
Someone has to do the right thing, she said.
243
Now stay quiet and trust me.
244
Meanwhile, Mr. Brownlow and his friends approached Fagin's hideout under the cover of darkness.
245
They moved silently through the narrow alleys, avoiding attention.
246
When they reached the house, they waited for the signal from Nancy.
247
A single candle lit in the upstairs window.
248
Inside, Nancy quietly lit the candle and placed it on the windowsill.
249
Then she hurried back to Oliver's room, her heart pounding.
250
Moments later, Mr. Brownlow saw the light and nodded to his companions.
251
It's time, he said.
252
They entered the house cautiously, careful not to make a sound.
253
Inside, all was quiet except for the faint snoring of Fagin and the other boys, who were fast asleep.
254
Bill Sykes, however, was awake, sitting by the fire, with a knife in his hand.
255
He sensed something was wrong.
256
What's that noise?
257
He growled, standing up.
258
Before he could investigate further, Mr. Brownlow and his friends burst into the room.
259
Stay where you are.
260
Mr. Brownlow commanded.
261
Bill lunged at them, but Mr. Losburn stepped forward and struck him with a heavy stick, knocking him unconscious.
262
Fagin woke up screaming, but he was quickly subdued.
263
The other boys scattered in fear, leaving the adults, free to focus on finding Oliver.
264
Nancy led them to the hidden room where Oliver was being kept.
265
When the door opened, Oliver rushed into Mr. Brownlow's arms, sobbing with relief.
266
I thought I'd never see you again, he cried.
267
You're safe now, Mr. Brownlow assured him.
268
Let's get you home.
269
As they left the house, Nancy lingered behind, watching them go.
270
She wanted to escape too, but she knew it was impossible.
271
If she ran, Fagin and Bill would hunt her down.
272
Her only hope was that they never discovered her role in the rescue you.
273
Back at Mr. Brownlow's house, Oliver was given fresh clothes, warm food, and a soft bed to sleep in.
274
For the first time in days, he felt truly safe.
275
But Mr. Brownlow couldn't shake the feeling that their troubles weren't over yet.
276
The next day, news spread through London about the raid on Fagin's hideout.
277
Some people praised Mr. Brownlow for his bravery, while others whispered about the criminal's anger.
278
Bill Sykes, now free after escaping arrest, vowed revenge against anyone involved in the rescue, including Nancy.
279
Unaware of the danger looming over her, Nancy continued to, live among the gang, pretending nothing had changed.
280
She hoped that one day she might find a way to escape.
281
But for now, she focused on staying alive.
282
What would happen when Bill discovered Nancy's betrayal?
283
And how long could she hide her secret before it caught up with her?
284
Chapter 5 Nancy's Sacrifice The days following Oliver's rescue were calm at Mr. Brownlow's house,
285
but far away in the dark alleys of London, trouble was brewing.
286
Bill Sykes had returned to Fagin's hideout, furious about the raid.
287
He paced back and forth, his face red with anger.
288
Someone betrayed us, he growled, and I'll find out who.
289
Fagin, who was equally upset, tried to calm him down.
290
Patience, my boy, he said.
291
We'll figure this out, but first, we need to be careful.
292
There are too many eyes watching us now.
293
Meanwhile, Nancy lived in constant fear.
294
She knew it was only a matter of time before Bill or Fagin discovered her role in helping Oliver escape.
295
Still, she refused.
296
to regret her decision.
297
I did the right thing, she told herself every night.
298
Oliver deserves a better life.
299
One evening as Nancy walked through the streets, she noticed someone following her.
300
It was one of Fagin's boys, a sly young thief named Noah Claypole.
301
He sneered at her.
302
Fagin wants to see you, he said.
303
Now.
304
Nancy's heart sank, But she nodded.
305
All right, she said calmly, take me to him.
306
When she arrived at Fagin's hideout, the old man greeted her with a cold smile.
307
Sit down, my dear, he said, motioning to a chair.
308
We need to talk.
309
Nancy sat down nervously, avoiding his gaze.
310
What is it?
311
She asked.
312
Fagin leaned closer, his voice low and dangerous.
313
Tell me, Nancy, are you still loyal to us?
314
Of course, Nancy replied quickly.
315
Why would you ask that?
316
Fagan studied her carefully.
317
Because someone helped Oliver escape, someone who knew our plans and our secrets.
318
Nancy felt her heart race, but she forced herself to stay calm.
319
I don't know anything about that, she said firmly.
320
Bill Sykes, who had been listening, silently stepped forward.
321
Don't lie to us, he snarled.
322
You've been acting strange lately.
323
Where were you the night of the raid?
324
I was here, Nancy insisted.
325
Ask anyone, they'll tell you.
326
For a moment, no one spoke.
327
Then Fagin sighed.
328
Very well, he said, but if I find out you're lying, You won't, Nancy interrupted, her voice steady despite her fear.
329
That night, Nancy returned to her small room, trembling with anxiety.
330
She knew she couldn't keep hiding the truth forever.
331
Sooner or later, Bill or Fagin would discover what she had done.
332
And when they did, she wouldn't survive.
333
Desperate for help, Nancy decided to visit Mr. Brownlow one last time.
334
She waited until late at night, when the streets were empty, and made her way to his house.
335
When he opened the door, she looked at him with tears in her eyes.
336
Please, she whispered, you have to protect me or else I'm dead.
337
Mr. Brownlow ushered her inside and listened carefully as she explained everything.
338
They suspect me, she said.
339
If I stay, they'll kill me.
340
Mr. Brownlow frowned.
341
Then you must leave London, he said.
342
I'll help you escape, to a place where they can't find you.
343
Nancy shook her head sadly.
344
It's too late for that, she said.
345
Even if I run, they'll hunt me down.
346
My only hope is that you keep Oliver safe.
347
Promise me you'll do that.
348
I promise, Mr. Brownlow said solemnly.
349
But there must be something more we can do.
350
There isn't, Nancy replied.
351
Just let me say goodbye to Oliver.
352
please.
353
The next morning, Mr. Brownlow brought Nancy to his home, where Oliver was waiting.
354
When he saw her, his face lit up.
355
Nancy, he exclaimed, running to hug her.
356
Are you all right?
357
Nancy forced a smile, though her eyes were full of sadness.
358
I'm fine, my dear, she said softly.
359
I just wanted to see you one last time him.
360
Oliver frowned, sensing something was wrong.
361
What do you mean, he asked.
362
Nancy knelt down so she could look him in the eye.
363
Listen to me, Oliver, she said.
364
You're safe now because of brave people like Mr. Brownlow.
365
Never forget how lucky you are, and never stop being kind, even to those who don't deserve it.
366
Before Oliver could ask more questions, Nancy stood up and turned to leave.
367
Goodbye.
368
My dear, she said, her voice breaking.
369
Take care of yourself.
370
As she walked away, Oliver called after her.
371
Will I see you again?
372
Nancy didn't answer.
373
She disappeared into the shadows, knowing it was the last time she would ever.
374
see him.
375
Later that night, Bill Sykes confronted Nancy in her room.
376
I know what you did, he spat, grabbing her by the arm.
377
You helped them save Oliver.
378
Nancy didn't deny it.
379
Yes, I did, she said quietly, and I'd do it again.
380
Bill's face twisted with rage without another word, he struck her violently.
381
Nancy fell to the ground unconscious.
382
Though she begged for mercy, Bill showed none.
383
In his anger and fear, he took her life.
384
When news of Nancy's death reached Mr. Brownlow, he was devastated, but not surprised.
385
She gave everything to protect Oliver, he said sadly.
386
Her courage will not be forgotten.
387
Oliver, too, mourned Nancy's loss deeply.
388
He had seen so much cruelty in his short life, but he also knew that kindness existed, even in the darkest places.
389
Nancy had shown him that.
390
As the days passed, Mr. Brownlow worked tirelessly to ensure justice for Nancy and others like her.
391
He vowed to expose Fagin and Bill Sykes for the criminals they were.
392
With the help of the law, their days of crime were finally numbered.
393
But for Oliver, the journey wasn't over yet.
394
There were still mysteries about his past waiting to be uncovered.
395
And new challenges ahead.
396
What secrets lay hidden in Oliver's history?
397
And how would they shape his future?

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
