Chapter 1 The Creature in the Shop My name is Dr. Frederick Treves.

I am a doctor at the London Hospital.

One day, in 1884, I saw a picture in the window of a shop near the hospital.

I stopped in front of the shop and looked at the picture.

At first, I felt interested.

Then I felt angry.

Then afraid.

It was a horrible, ugly picture.

There was a man in the picture, but he did not look like you and me.

He did not look like a man.

He looked like an elephant.

I read the writing under the picture.

It said, Come in and see the elephant man, two pence.

I opened the door and went in.

There was a man in the shop.

He was a dirty man, in an old coat, with a cigarette in his mouth.

What do you want? he asked.

I'd like to see the elephant man, please, I said.

The man looked at me angrily.

Well, you can't, he said.

The shop's closing now.

You can come back tomorrow.

I'm sorry, I said, but I would like to see him now.

I have no time tomorrow.

I have a lot of work to do.

But I can give you more than two pence.

The man looked at me carefully.

Then he took the cigarette out of his mouth and smiled with his yellow teeth.

All right, sir, he said.

Give me twelve pence, then.

I gave him the money, and he opened a door at the back of the shop.

We went into a little room.

The room was cold and dark, and there was a horrible smell in it.

A creature sat on a chair behind a table.

I say a creature, because it was not a man or a woman, like you or me.

The creature did not move or look at us.

It sat very quietly on the chair, in the cold, dark, dirty room, and looked at the table.

The creature had a cloth over its head, because of the cold.

On the table in front of it, there was a dead flower.

Stand up, said the shopkeeper loudly.

The creature stood up slowly.

It took the old cloth off its head, and put it on the chair.

I looked at the creature and felt sad.

I am a doctor, so I know a lot about accidents and ill people.

I see horrible, ugly things every day.

But this creature, this thing, was the worst of all.

There were no men or women in the hospital like him.

He wore some old trousers, but no shirt, coat or shoes, so I could see his body very well.

His head was the most interesting thing.

It was very, very big, like an enormous bag with a lot of books in it.

The head did not have much hair, and there was another bag of brown,

dirty skin at the back of it.

This skin came down below his neck.

I could not see one of his eyes very well, because a lot of skin came down in front of his face, too.

An enormous red tooth came out of his mouth, under his nose.

It looked like an elephant's tooth.

The mouth and nose were like holes in the face.

The face could not smile or laugh or look angry or sad, because the skin could not move.

It was dead, like an elephant's face.

There were more bags of dirty skin on the front and back of the creature's body.

These bags came down to his legs.

The right arm was enormous, and there were bags of skin on it, too.

The right hand was like a man's foot.

But the left hand, the left arm and the left hand, were beautiful.

The left arm had wonderful skin, and the fingers of the left hand were long and beautiful.

It was like a young woman's hand.

Walk, Merrick, said the shopkeeper angrily.

Come on, quickly, move.

He hit the creature with his hand.

Slowly, the creature walked across the room.

But he could not walk well.

His legs were very big and fat, and he had a bad back.

He could not walk far without a stick.

All right, thank you, I said.

Let him sit down.

I don't want to see any more.

I felt ill, and the smell in the room was very bad.

Yes, sir, said the shopkeeper.

Sit down, Merrick.

We went out of the room and closed the door.

The shopkeeper smiled at me with his yellow teeth.

Wonderful, sir, isn't it? he said.

The best elephant man in England.

Hundreds of people come to see him, you know.

Hundreds.

I take him all over the country, I do.

Yes, very interesting, I said.

Can I sit down?

Yes, sir, of course.

Here's a chair.

He looked at me, smiling.

Would you like a glass of water, sir?

Yes, please, I said.

Then I looked at the things in the dirty shop.

There were two or three bad apples, and some old black bananas.

That was all.

Uh, no. No, thank you.

I'm all right, I said.

Did you.. did you call the creature Merrick?

100

That's right, sir.

101

Joseph Merrick.

102

The best elephant man in England.

103

I take him all over the country, you know.

104

Lots of people want to see him.

105

Yes, I see.

106

Do you get a lot of money?

107

Well, sometimes we do, sir, yes.

108

But it's difficult, you see, sir, because of the police.

109

The police don't like us, you see, sir.

110

So we can't stay in a town very long.

111

We usually move every week.

112

Yes, I see.

113

Well, anyway, Mr...

114

Uh...

115

Silcock, sir.

116

Simon Silcock.

117

Yes, well, Mr. Silcock, I'm a doctor at the London Hospital.

118

My name is Dr. Treves.

119

I think this, uh, this man, Joseph Merrick, is very interesting, and I would like to see him at the hospital.

120

I want to look at him more carefully, you see.

121

Yes, sir.

122

I see.

123

But how can he get to the hospital?

124

It's going to be difficult.

125

Why, man?

126

The hospital's not far from here.

127

Well, yes, sir.

128

I know.

129

But you see, Merrick can't walk very well.

130

He needs help.

131

You can come with him.

132

Do you want more money?

133

Is that it?

134

Well, yes, sir, I do.

135

But you see, people are afraid of him, too.

136

In the road, little boys always run after him and hit him.

137

Then the police get angry, because people are afraid.

138

Sometimes they take us to prison.

139

"'I see,' I said.

140

"'Well, how can he come to the hospital, then?' "'Bring a cab, sir,' said Silcock.

141

"'You can take him to the hospital in a cab.'

142

Thank you.

143

Thank you.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
