1
The Reluctant Dragon One evening,
2
long ago, a shepherd reigned home, terrified.
3
I saw something terrible!
4
He cried to his wife and son.
5
It's as big as four horses!
6
It has long sharp claws,
7
a long pointy tail, and shiny blue scales all over its body.
8
His son looked up from his book.
9
That sounds like a dragon, he said.
10
A dragon, yelled the wife.
11
A dragon.
12
said the shepherd.
13
That does not sound good.
14
The boy wasn't scared.
15
The next day, he set off up the hill to find the dragon.
16
Bye, don't worry.
17
He might be friendly, thought the boy.
18
The dragon was friendly, and he was thrilled to see the boy.
19
It's beautiful here, but it does get lonely.
20
The boy smiled.
21
He sat down and asked the dragon all kinds of questions.
22
The dragon told stories of long, long ago.
23
There were dangerous dragons everywhere.
24
And brave knights fought them to rescue Princess.
25
The boy came back every day to hear the stories.
26
But then the villagers found out about the dragon.
27
They were terrified.
28
The boy ran straight to the dragon.
29
The villagers want to get rid of you, he painted.
30
But I wouldn't hurt a fly.
31
That afternoon, the boy heard even worse news.
32
He's here!
33
Send George the Dragon Killer!
34
Who's there?
35
He's going to fight the dragon!
36
The boy rushed back to the dragon.
37
St. George the Dragon Killer wants to fight you,
38
gasped the boy And he has the longest spear I've ever seen But I don't like fighting
39
I'll just hide in my cave until he goes away Hey, said the dragon.
40
You can't, cried the boy.
41
Everyone wants a fight.
42
The dragon yarned.
43
I'm sure you'll think of something, he said.
44
The boy walked slowly back down to the village.
45
He eats ten ships for breakfast A crowd of
46
villagers was telling George about the dangerous dragon He burned down five horses It's not true,
47
said the boy The dragon wouldn't hurt a fly But everyone wants a fight, said George.
48
What can I do?
49
Follow me, said the boy.
50
And he took George to meet the dragon.
51
What a perfect place for a fight, said George.
52
No fighting,
53
said the dragon firmly not even a pretend fight asked the boy maybe said the dragon
54
the boy turned to george do you promise not to hurt him Well,
55
it has to look real, said George Will there be a feast afterwards,
56
asked the dragon There well,
57
and you can come, promised George The next morning,
58
lots of villagers arrived to watch the fight.
59
The boy waited nervously by the dragon's cave.
60
They cheered and waved when St. George rode into view.
61
But where was the dragon?
62
Then a roar anchored around the hills.
63
Flames filled the air.
64
Everyone gasped as the dragon appeared.
65
His scales sparkled and he breathed out fire.
66
Charge!
67
cried George He galloped hard His spear held height The
68
dragon bounced up All they shot past each other Missed! yelled the crowd George
69
and the dragon turned around and charged again This time,
70
there was no way they could miss.
71
Clatter!
72
Ban!
73
Oof!
74
The dragon slumped to the ground.
75
George towered over him.
76
Cut off his head!
77
I think the dragon has learned his lesson.
78
George declared, Let's invite him to our feast.
79
And he led the villagers, the boy, and the dragon back down the hill.
80
The boy was happy because his plan worked.
81
The villagers were happy because they'd seen a fight.
82
George was happy because he'd won.
83
The dragon was happiest of all.
84
He had lots of new friends and a very full tummy.
85
Joyly night it's been, he murmured and began to snore.
86
How will I get him home? said the boy I'll help,
87
said George He gave the dragon a prude And they set off up the hill arm in arm The scent,
88
the dragon and the boy Thank you.

- /l/ final — a língua toca o céu da boca, não vira “u”: yell /jɛl/, tail /ˈteɪ̯l/, thrill /θɹɪl/, sparkle /ˈspɑɹ.kəl/
- s + consoante no início — sem um “i” antes: spear /spɪə̯(ɹ)/, scare /skɛɚ/, slump /slʌmp/, snore /snoɹ/, sparkle /ˈspɑɹ.kəl/

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.
