Hello, this is Jana, and I'm back with our third story about Stella and her magic mirror.
2
Stella and the Surprise Delivery.
3
Mr Fry's art class had been making pottery in and out building the school grounds, known as the shed.
4
The pupils started clearing away the clay, the tools and the bowls of muddy water.
5
Stella had made a small cat, which was waiting to be fired in the kiln.
6
Suddenly, a loud banging shook the door.
7
It sounded as if somebody was trying to break it down.
8
Mr Fry rushed to open the door before it collapsed.
9
A young man in a peaked hat stood outside, holding two enormous cardboard boxes.
10
Behind him, a battered old car was parked on the grass.
11
31 burger meals for Mr Fry, he announced 31? repeated Mr Fry in surprise
12
The man handed him the boxes
13
Hold on mate, there's more, I'll fetch the milkshakes
14
Take them back, called out Mr Fry I can assure you this is some kind of a mistake
15
I've not ordered any of this
16
Well someone's paid for them, called back the man Mr Fry consulted his phone
17
His mouth gaped
18
It was true
19
He had paid for them
20
Was he dreaming?
21
As the driver hurried back and forth with the milkshakes
22
Voices rose around the room
23
Oh, thanks Mr Fry Can we eat them now?
24
They'll go cold sir
25
And we're starving
26
The bell goes in ten minutes Mr Fry sighed.
27
He had unknowingly paid £325 .50.
28
He hated wasting money and it seemed crazy to throw away so much food.
29
He opened the boxes and started to hand round the meals.
30
As the pupils tucked in, Stella thought.
31
What happened here today is a genuine mystery.
32
No teacher is
33
that generous i'm sure my mirror can solve
34
it by home time the whole school was talking about mr
35
fry's burger feast photographs of the kids stuffing their faces during
36
art class were circulating around the school one photo showed a kid with two chips up her nose
37
and there was ketchup everywhere a rumor was going around that mr fry was being suspended from lessons while the school investigated.
38
The head teacher was furious that he had broken the school's healthy eating policy.
39
That evening, Stella sat in front of her mirror.
40
Why didn't you tell me about the burger delivery?
41
She asked.
42
You know I like to know news before it happens.
43
The mirror did not reply.
44
All it showed was Stella wagging her finger.
45
OK, I forgive you said Stella.
46
You can make up for it by showing me who really ordered the burgers.
47
Was it Dinesh?
48
He's always playing pranks.
49
The mirror shimmered and the reflection began to change, but it didn't show the face of a pupil.
50
Instead, it showed the face of a chemistry teacher, Miss Vale.
51
Oh, said Stella.
52
You're telling me that
53
Miss Vale had something to do with this?
54
Am I right?
55
A ripple passed across the mirror and it returned to show Stella's face.
56
She had a little smile on her lips because this news was very interesting indeed.
57
But the next day at school,
58
the head teacher announced that somebody had used a teacher's phone to order a large amount of fast food.
59
That somebody had been suspended from school while further inquiries continued.
60
As everyone left the assembly, Stella whispered to her best friend Celeste.
61
Something's not right.
62
It wasn't a kid who ordered the food.
63
It was a teacher.
64
How do you know that?
65
whispered back Celeste.
66
Trust me, I just do, replied Stella.
67
By break time, everyone had worked out that a year eight boy called Roddy had been sent home.
68
Roddy was not popular.
69
He had acne and a stammer.
70
And however unfair it was, some of the crueler kids made fun of him.
71
As Stella and Celeste strolled around the school grounds, Stella said, I just don't believe it was Roddy.
72
He's not the sort of person who would do something like this.
73
I know it does feel off, said Celeste.
74
But I heard the administrator talking.
75
They have CCTV footage of Mr Fry.
76
He left his phone under a chair after assembly and Roddy picked it up.
77
and he was seen posting it through the homework slot outside the staff room.
78
Well, do they have footage of him ordering the food?
79
No, but all the evidence points to Roddy.
80
I never thought he had it in him to do a thing like that.
81
Everyone is innocent until proven guilty, said Stella defensively.
82
I still think a teacher did it.
83
I'm going to keep digging.
84
But Honeyboo, how do you know it was a teacher?
85
questioned Celeste, puzzled by her friend's certainty.
86
Stella was stuck.
87
Now she couldn't admit that her magic mirror had pointed her towards Miss Vale.
88
The mirror was her deepest secret.
89
She had to think of something quick.
90
But I just know, I have a strong feeling, and my feelings are never wrong.
91
Han, feelings are not evidence
92
Just you wait, said
93
Stella The truth will come out
94
Meanwhile, the Roddy haters were having a field day Artie and Teresa were saying things like
95
We always said that boy was no good
96
We just didn't know he was a phone hacker
97
And No wonder he has spots with a diet like that
98
Stella fired back I don't think he used Mr Fry's phone
99
How would he have known the pin number?
100
Artie and Teresa immediately turned on her Well, you're only saying that because you miss your boyfriend
101
Now he's been kicked out of school Celeste was furious on her friend's behalf
102
How dare you spread rumours?
103
And Stella added
104
It will turn out to be a teacher that did it
105
Wait and see
106
You're the one causing trouble
107
remarked Teresa you're spreading rumors about a teacher
108
and I'm going to tell the head you'll be kicked out too ha then you'll spend all day with your spotty boyfriend
109
Stella was still fuming
110
when she consulted her mirror after school I need to know the truth she pleaded tell me what really happened
111
The mirror dissolved into another scene
112
It was early evening
113
And Mr Fry and Miss Vale were walking down the high street
114
They were both dressed for a special occasion
115
Miss Vale had bright lipstick on And carried a designer handbag
116
They passed a little French bistro
117
Called La Bon Affair Miss Vale stopped to study the menu Mr Fry carried on walking.
118
Next, they came to an Italian restaurant called La Vecchia Cocina.
119
Candles flickered invitingly at the tables, and a waiter in a bow tie stood by the door.
120
Miss Vale looked hopeful, but Mr Fry walked straight past.
121
Then, he suddenly crossed the road and beckoned to her.
122
Miss Vale followed him reluctantly into McBongo's Burgers where the tables were orange plastic and the meals came wrapped in paper
123
Miss Vale clenched her teeth as he produced a two -for -one voucher
124
If she could have put Mr Fry in detention for a hundred days, she would have done it
125
There you go, exclaimed
126
Stella when she had watched the whole scene
127
Miss Vale has the motive
128
Revenge on Mr Fry for being such a cheapskate on their romantic date
129
She couldn't wait to tell Celeste her hunch the next morning
130
And although Celeste was the only person she told
131
Oddly, the entire school knew the story by the end of lunchtime
132
Inevitably, the story reached the ears of Mrs Righteous, the formidable deputy head
133
Stella was summoned to see her before going home
134
She was so nervous that she forgot to unpin her free Roddy badge
135
I hear you have been spreading rumours about Miss Vale, said Mrs Righteous.
136
I, I, stammered Stella.
137
But before the words could come out of her mouth, Mrs Righteous followed up with, Don't lie to me.
138
I know it was you who started the rumour that
139
Miss Vale used Mr Fry's phone.
140
Yes, Mrs Righteous, said Stella squirming.
141
Because it's true?
142
she added quietly
143
The truth is not a defence
144
Fired back the deputy head, banging her desk
145
But, but, what I mean to say Mrs Righteous corrected herself
146
Do you have any evidence, Stella?
147
Stella shook her head
148
Tell me, where did you hear this story?
149
I just had a feeling,
150
Mrs Righteous, that's all I just knew it was Miss Vale and not Roddy You just had a feeling, you say?
151
Just a feeling?
152
Yes, Mrs Righteous Don't you say anything else about the matter to anyone
153
Is that understood?
154
Yes, Mrs Righteous Now off you go and remember
155
No more rumour -mongering
156
Stella was shaking as she walked home
157
But she was also confused by why she was not in any more trouble
158
She had just received a severe talking to But no detention, let alone a suspension
159
Why didn't you warn me, Mira?
160
She said when she got home
161
The Mira did not give her a good reply
162
It just showed her the school assembly hall.
163
It was empty until Miss Vale walked back in and took something from under a chair.
164
She seemed to know the pin number of the phone she was holding
165
and then spent a few minutes tapping on it before returning the phone to where she found it.
166
I knew it!
167
It was Miss Vale!
168
screeched Stella excitedly.
169
And is it true Roddy found the phone?
170
The mirror replied by showing Roddy coming into the hall.
171
He liked to practice on the grand piano there during lunchtimes.
172
He found the phone and went straight out with it, presumably to post it back to the staff room.
173
He was innocent.
174
In fact, he had done exactly what he should have done.
175
But it's so unfair, said Stella sadly.
176
Is life always so unjust?
177
The mirror glimmered.
178
This time, it showed a golden weighing scale.
179
Stella was unsure what that meant.
180
The following day, Roddy was back in school.
181
He didn't say anything.
182
He just returned as if nothing had happened.
183
Of course, everyone wanted to know every single detail.
184
Was he really the one who ordered the burgers?
185
He shook his head.
186
But that wasn't all.
187
It turned out that
188
Miss Vale didn't show up at school, and she was never seen again.
189
This time, it was Celeste who told the story behind the story.
190
Her dad knew Roddy's dad at the cricket club.
191
Roddy's dad had sent a letter to Mrs Righteous, demanding to see the CCTV footage.
192
And as it happened, the school had lost the footage.
193
Somebody had accidentally deleted it.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
