Charlotte's Web Chapter 3 Escape
2
The barn was very large.
3
It was very old.
4
It smelled of hay and it smelled of manure.
5
It smelled of the perspiration of tired horses and the wonderful sweet breath of patient cows.
6
It often had a sort of peaceful smell, as though nothing bad could happen ever again in the world.
7
It smelled of grain and of harness dressing and of axle grease and of rubber boots and of new rope.
8
And whenever the cat was given a fish head to eat, the barn would smell of fish.
9
But mostly it smelled of hay, for there was always hay in the great loft up overhead,
10
and there was always hay being pitched down to the cows and the horses and the sheep.
11
The barn was pleasantly warm in winter when the animals spent most of their time indoors,
12
and it was pleasantly cool in summer when the big doors stood wide open to the breeze.
13
The barn had stalls on the main floor for the workhorses, tie-ups on the main floor for the cows, a sheepfold down below for the sheep,
14
a pigpen down below for Wilbur, and it was full of all sorts of things that you find in barns.
15
Ladders, grindstones, pitchforks, monkey wrenches, scythes, lawnmowers, snow shovels, sacks,
16
handles, milk pails, water buckets, empty grain sacks, and rusty rat traps.
17
It was the kind of barn that swallows like to build their nests in.
18
It was the kind of barn that children like to play in.
19
And the whole thing was owned by Fern's uncle, Mr. Homer L.
20
Zuckerman.
21
Wilbur's new home was in the lower part of the barn, directly underneath the cows.
22
Mr. Zuckerman knew that a manure pile is a good place to keep a young pig.
23
Pigs need warmth, and it was warm and comfortable down there in the barn cellar on the south side.
24
Fern came almost every day to visit him.
25
She found an old milking stool that had been discarded, and she placed the stool in the sheepfold next to Wilbur's pen.
26
she sat quietly during the long afternoons, thinking and listening and watching Wilbur.
27
The sheep soon got to know her and trust her.
28
So did the geese who lived with the sheep.
29
All the animals trusted her, she was so quiet and friendly.
30
Mr. Zuckerman did not allow her to take Wilbur out, and he did not allow her to get into the pig pen.
31
But he told Fern that she could sit the stool and watch Wilbur as long as she wanted to.
32
It made her happy just to be near the pig, and it made Wilbur happy to know that she was sitting there, right outside his pen.
33
But he never had any fun.
34
No walks, no rides, no swims.
35
One afternoon in June, when Wilbur was almost two months old, he wandered out into his small yard outside the barn.
36
Fern had not arrived for her usual visit.
37
Wilbur stood in the sun feeling lonely and bored.
38
There's never anything to do around here, he thought.
39
He walked slowly to his food trough and sniffed to see if anything had been overlooked at lunch.
40
He found a small strip of potato skin and ate it.
41
His back itched, so he leaned against the fence and rubbed against the boards.
42
When he tired of this, he walked indoors, climbed to the top of the manure pile, and sat down.
43
He didn't feel like going to sleep.
44
He didn't feel like digging.
45
He was tired of standing still, tired of lying down.
46
I'm less than two months old, and I'm tired of living, he said.
47
He walked out to the yard again.
48
When I'm out here, he said, there's no place to go but in.
49
When I'm indoors, there's no place to go but out in the yard.
50
That's where you're wrong, my friend, my friend, said a voice.
51
Wilbur looked through the fence and saw the goose standing there.
52
You don't have to stay in that dirty little, dirty little, dirty little yard, said the goose, who talked rather fast.
53
One of the boards is loose.
54
Push on it.
55
Push, push, push on it, and come on out.
56
What? said Wilbur.
57
Say it slower.
58
At the risk of repeating myself, said the goose, I suggest that you come on out.
59
It's wonderful out here.
60
Did you say a board was loose?
61
That I did, that I did, said the goose.
62
Wilbur walked up to the fence and saw that the goose was right.
63
One board was loose.
64
He put his head down, shut his eyes, and pushed.
65
The board gave way.
66
In a minute, he had squeezed through the fence and was standing in the long grass outside his yard.
67
The goose chuckled.
68
How does it feel to be free? she asked.
69
I like it, said Wilbur.
70
That is, I guess I like it.
71
Actually, Wilbur felt queer to be outside his fence, with nothing between him and the big world.
72
Where do you think I'd better go?
73
Anywhere you like, anywhere you like, said the goose.
74
Go down through the orchard, root up the sod.
75
Go down through the garden, dig up the radishes, root up everything.
76
Eat grass, look for corn, look for oats.
77
Run all over, skip and dance, jump and prance.
78
Go down through the orchard and stroll in the woods.
79
The world is a wonderful place when you're young.
80
I can see that, replied Wilbur.
81
He gave a jump in the air, twirled, ran a few steps,
82
stopped, looked all around, sniffed the smells of afternoon, and then set off walking down through the orchard.
83
Pausing in the shade of an apple tree, he put his strong snout into the ground and began pushing, digging, and rooting.
84
He felt very happy.
85
He had plowed up quite a piece of ground before anyone noticed him.
86
Mrs. Zuckerman was the first to see him.
87
She saw him from the kitchen window, and she immediately shouted for the men.
88
Homer!
89
She cried.
90
Pigs out!
91
Lurvie!
92
Pigs out!
93
Homer!
94
Lurvie!
95
Pigs out!
96
He's down there, under that apple tree!
97
Now the trouble starts, thought Wilbur.
98
Now I'll catch it.
99
The goose heard the racket and she too started hollering.
100
Run, run, run, downhill!
101
They'll make for the woods, the woods, she shouted to Wilbur.
102
They'll never, never, never catch you in the woods.
103
The cocker spaniel heard the commotion, and he ran out from the barn to join the chase.
104
Mr. Zuckerman heard, and he came out of the machine shed where he was mending a tool.
105
Lurvie, the hired man, heard the noise and came up from the asparagus patch where he was pulling weeds.
106
Everybody walked toward Wilbur, and Wilbur didn't know what to do.
107
The woods seemed a long way off, and anyway, he had never been down there in the woods and wasn't sure he would like it.
108
Get around behind him, Lurvie, said Mr. Zuckerman, and drive him toward the barn.
109
And take it easy, don't rush him.
110
I'll go and get a bucket of slops.
111
The news of Wilbur's escape spread rapidly among the animals on the place.
112
Whenever any creature broke loose on Zuckerman's farm, the event was of great interest to the others.
113
The goose shouted to the nearest cow that Wilbur was free, and soon all the cows knew.
114
Then one of the cows told one of the sheep, and soon all the sheep knew.
115
The lambs learned about it from their mothers.
116
The horses in their stalls in the barn pricked up their ears when they heard the goose hollering, and soon the horses had caught on to what was happening.
117
Wilbur's out, they said.
118
Every animal stirred and lifted its head and became excited to know
119
that one of his friends had got free and was no longer pinned up or tied fast.
120
Wilbur didn't know what to do or which way to run.
121
It seemed as though everybody was after him.
122
If this is what it's like to be free, he thought, I believe I'd rather be pinned up in my own yard.
123
The cocker spaniel was sneaking up on him from one side.
124
Lurvie the hired man was sneaking up on him from the other side.
125
Mrs. Zuckerman stood ready to head him off if he started for the garden, and now Mr. Zuckerman was coming down toward him carrying a pail.
126
This is really awful, thought Wilbur.
127
Why doesn't Fern come?
128
He began to cry.
129
The goose took command and began to give orders.
130
Don't just stand there, Wilbur.
131
Dodge about, dodge about, cried the goose.
132
Skip around, run toward me.
133
Slip in and out, in and out, in and out.
134
Make for the woods, twist and turn.
135
The cocker spaniel sprang for Wilbur's hind leg.
136
Wilbur jumped and ran.
137
Lurvie reached out and grabbed.
138
Mrs. Zuckerman screamed at Lurvie.
139
The goose cheered for Wilbur.
140
Wilbur dodged between Lurvy's legs.
141
Lurvy missed Wilbur and grabbed the spaniel instead.
142
Nicely done, nicely done, cried the goose.
143
Try it again, try it again.
144
Run down here, suggested the cows.
145
Run toward me, yelled the gander.
146
Run up, evil, cried the sheep.
147
Turn and twist, honked the goose.
148
Jump and dance, said the rooster.
149
Look out for Lurvie, called the cows.
150
Look out for Zuckerman, yelled the gander.
151
Watch out for the dog, cried the sheep.
152
Listen to me, listen to me, screamed the goose.
153
Poor Wilbur was dazed and frightened by this hullabaloo.
154
He didn't like being the center of all this fuss.
155
He tried to follow the instructions his friends were giving him, but he couldn't run downhill and uphill at the same time,
156
and he couldn't turn and twist when he was jumping and dancing, and he was crying so hard he could barely see anything that was happening.
157
After all, Wilbur was a very young pig, not much more than a baby, really.
158
He wished Fern were there to take him in her arms and comfort him.
159
When he looked up and saw Mr. Zuckerman standing quite close to him, holding a pail of warm slops, he felt relieved.
160
He lifted his nose and sniffed.
161
The smell was delicious.
162
Warm milk, potato skins, wheat middlings, Kellogg's cornflakes, and a popover left from the Zuckerman's breakfast.
163
Come, pig, said Mr. Zuckerman, tapping the pail.
164
Come, pig.
165
Wilbur took a step toward the pail.
166
No, no, no, said the goose.
167
It's the old pail trick, Wilbur.
168
Don't fall for it.
169
Don't fall for it.
170
He's trying to lure you back into captivity.
171
He's appealing to your stomach.
172
Wilbur didn't care.
173
The food smelled appetizing.
174
He took another step toward the pail.
175
Pig, pig, said Mr. Zuckerman in a kind voice, and began walking slowly toward the barnyard,
176
looking all about him innocently as if he didn't know that a little white pig was following along behind him.
177
You'll be sorry, sorry, sorry, called the goose.
178
Wilbur didn't care.
179
He kept walking toward the pail of slops.
180
You'll miss your freedom, honked the goose.
181
An hour of freedom is worth a barrel of slops.
182
Wilbur didn't care.
183
When Mr. Zuckerman reached the pigpen, he climbed over the fence and poured the slops into the trough.
184
Then he pulled the loose board away from the fence so that there was a wide hole for Wilbur to walk through.
185
Reconsider!
186
Reconsider! cried the goose.
187
Wilbur paid no attention.
188
He stepped through the fence into his yard.
189
He walked to the trough and took a long drink of slops, sucking in the milk hungrily and chewing the popover.
190
It was good to be home again.
191
While Wilbur ate, Lurvie fetched a hammer and some eight-penny nails and nailed the board in place.
192
Then he and Mr. Zuckerman leaned lazily on the fence, and Mr. Zuckerman scratched Wilbur's back with a stick.
193
He's quite a pig, said Lurvie.
194
Yes, he'll make a good pig, said Mr. Zuckerman.
195
Wilbur heard the words of praise.
196
He felt the warm milk inside his stomach.
197
He felt the pleasant rubbing of the stick along his itchy back.
198
He felt peaceful and happy and sleepy.
199
This had been a tiring afternoon.
200
It was still only about four o'clock, but Wilbur was ready for bed.
201
I'm really too young to go out into the world alone, he thought as he lay down.

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.
