1
Hey friends, my name is Mary Lynn and I live in Pennsylvania.
2
Please like and subscribe.
3
I was raised by a single mom who loved me to bits.
4
When I was very young, mom had to work really hard to put food on the table.
5
But she wasn't someone who gave up.
6
She worked her butt off and became a firefighter and I was so proud of her.
7
But growing up, I'd see kids have a big family and I never knew why I didn't have aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousins.
8
Whenever I asked her, mom would say, I used to have a sister, but then she went on a trip to Mars, and I hope she stays there forever.
9
Well, I believed her for a while until I understood she was just kidding.
10
But still, I wished for a family.
11
But Mom made sure we were both enough.
12
She'd do silly dances with me while we were getting groceries.
13
She'd have tea parties with me and would even let me give her a makeover.
14
Because Mom was a total goofball, I was too.
15
I'd play music at the cafeteria, dance in the assembly, and whatnot.
16
One time I was at school and the class was just not ending.
17
So I took out a party horn from my pocket and blew it hard.
18
Who did this?
19
Teacher, we have no idea.
20
I knew no one would answer because everybody wanted that boring class to end.
21
But I couldn't control my giggles and she knew it was me and instantly gave me a detention.
22
It wasn't my first time, but seeing Axel, the hottest and most arrogant boy of the school there, made it totally worthwhile.
23
Hey Axel, what brings you to my kingdom?
24
The guy just gave me a look and rolled his eyes.
25
Such a diva.
26
Come on, tell me what happened.
27
Okay, fine.
28
Let me guess.
29
You started a food fight.
30
No, I've never seen you in the cafeteria.
31
Okay, you pranked some teacher?
32
Ah, no, no, no, you're just too much into your studies.
33
So you hit someone?
34
Ah, no, that can't be it.
35
That's because you're just way too sophisticated to touch someone else.
36
Ummm...
37
Oh my god, can't you just keep quiet for just a second?
38
I feel like my ears are bleeding.
39
Fine, I'll tell you, but just keep it to yourself.
40
I'm here cause...
41
What?
42
I'm here cause...
43
I can't hear you.
44
I'm here cause I got an F and lost
45
and tore the paper in the teacher's face and I was just so angry and nothing made it...
46
Axel seemed to be having a panic attack, and I did the only thing that I thought that would help.
47
I hugged him and rubbed his back.
48
Hey, hey, hey, breathe.
49
Dude, just breathe.
50
Slowly.
51
I've been in worse situations.
52
Okay, I'm just saying that to make you feel better, but still.
53
The tension is like a second home to me.
54
It worked, and he chuckled.
55
You are one crazy chick.
56
I've been told that before.
57
The next day at lunch, I was sitting with my friends, and Axel came, and everyone looked at him like he was some alien, but not me.
58
Yeah, you can totally sit with me.
59
Come on, friend.
60
Friend?
61
Um, thanks.
62
I like that.
63
After that day, Axel and my friendship only grew, and we became best friends.
64
Everyone thought he was a snob, but Axel was just the quiet type.
65
He was one in a million.
66
By the time I was in eighth grade, I felt like I had a crush on my best friend.
67
But I decided to never tell him.
68
When we returned to school after summer vacation, I wanted to start off the new year with something special.
69
So I gave Axel a chocolate bar.
70
Uh, geez, thanks.
71
And after just one bite, his face turned red.
72
What the heck did you put in this?
73
Just a lot of chili powder.
74
I'll get you for this.
75
Saying that, Axel chased after me, but someone came in front of me.
76
I skidded to the side and then crashed on the floor.
77
And then I saw Axel and a girl looking at me.
78
Are you okay?
79
Please tell me that you're alright.
80
Mary, you almost gave me a heart attack.
81
Tell me you're okay.
82
Yeah, I feel fine.
83
Axel and the girl helped me up, and then she told me that her name was Valerie, and she had just moved into the town.
84
And amazingly, she was with Axel and me in our class.
85
Pretty soon, Valerie, Axel, and I became a team.
86
We did everything together.
87
We'd study together and even go out together.
88
All three of us even joined the cheerleading squad together.
89
One time, all three of us went out for a movie.
90
And while Axel was in line getting us popcorn that was slower than a snail at a snail funeral, the only thing I focused on was how handsome Axel was.
91
Why don't you tell him how you feel?
92
Huh?
93
What?
94
Come on, it's all over your face.
95
Just tell him.
96
Right then I saw Axel coming and Valerie started giggling.
97
Um, did I miss something?
98
No. Mary wants to tell you something.
99
Something very important.
100
Yeah, I did.
101
I just totally forgot to tell you what a cute little girl you look like in that pink t-shirt.
102
Seriously, dude?
103
Um, you bought it for me.
104
So, thanks, I guess.
105
So that was it?
106
Come on, the movie's starting, let's go.
107
Gosh, I could never tell Axel that I liked him.
108
Like, in a different way.
109
When we finally had our summer vacations, Axel went to his grandma's in Florida and I missed him a lot.
110
But thank God I had Valerie now.
111
She once invited me to her home and I was literally shocked to see how big it was.
112
Whoa, Valerie, you're rich.
113
Yeah, my mom actually won the lottery before I was born.
114
Can you believe it?
115
It's so crazy.
116
Wow, lucky you.
117
Valerie's mom was so nice and I was having an amazing time with them.
118
A few days later, there was a carnival in our town.
119
And we both met there in the evening.
120
Mom was running late, so while Valerie's mom sat, we both went to the Ferris wheel ride.
121
We were having so much fun and then heard noises and looked down.
122
I was shocked to see Mom arguing with Valerie's mom.
123
Don't tell me where to live and where not to.
124
I can do whatever I want.
125
Oh yeah?
126
Like steal more things?
127
You stole from your own sister.
128
I won that lottery.
129
And you stole the ticket and just vanished.
130
And now you have the guts to show your face after all these years?
131
What the heck?
132
Valerie's mom was my mom's sister?
133
Before Valerie and I could say anything, both of our moms grabbed our hands and left.
134
I didn't get to talk to Valerie for the rest of the summer vacation.
135
But when we went back to school, I really wanted to sort things out.
136
After all, she was my cousin.
137
But the moment I said hi to her, she blew me off.
138
Stay away from me.
139
I don't ever want to talk to you.
140
Your mom calls my mom a thief.
141
OK, that really pissed me off.
142
Don't be a jerk.
143
The big house you were flaunting that day, it's all thanks to my mom.
144
The fact remains the same.
145
Your mom is a thief.
146
Hearing this, she pushed me hard and I landed in the dustbin.
147
Stay there, or I swear I'll ruin you.
148
You know what?
149
I'll tell Axel you have a crush on him.
150
No, on second thought, I'll make sure that he hates you.
151
Watch me destroy you, Mary.
152
What did she think I was?
153
A coward?
154
I jumped and grabbed her hair.
155
And before we knew it, we were both in a cat fight.
156
We were later taken to the principal's office, and both of our moms were called, and it turned into a battleground.
157
I had never seen the sight of my mom, and it just made me realize her sister hurt her bad.
158
After that day, things got tough.
159
Valerie would always pick on me, and I would always retaliate.
160
It seemed she was a totally different person.
161
One time we were in art class, and I was minding my own business, when Valerie came and started telling me how bad my painting was, like I ever needed her approval.
162
I was so done with her, so I pushed her, just a little.
163
But the girl landed on her painting, knocking out all of the paints from the table in a really dramatic way.
164
And then she literally started screaming like a banshee.
165
Ouch, my foot!
166
Mary, why would you do that?
167
I told you I'm sorry for everything, and still...
168
OMG, what a liar!
169
The teacher and all the kids in the class gathered around us, and Valerie kept on with her fake crying.
170
Shut up, Valerie, or else I'll...
171
Stop it, you two.
172
Mary, what has gotten into you?
173
I couldn't believe Axel was on her side.
174
I told him she was faking it, but Valerie cried harder, and Axel looked so concerned about her.
175
Ignoring me, he picked up Valerie, took her out of the class, while I was sent to the principal's office.
176
And I got detention.
177
When it was time to go home, Axel came to see me and kept telling me how I had hurt Valerie.
178
I wished he wasn't that blind.
179
For God's sake, she's faking it.
180
Axel, you have to choose.
181
It's either me or Valerie.
182
Mary, you're both my friends.
183
I just can't choose.
184
Whoa.
185
Oh, I see.
186
Well, fine.
187
I couldn't believe this.
188
I pushed him out of the way and ran home.
189
That was It was the worst day of my life!
190
Axel tried to talk to me at school.
191
He called me and texted me so many times.
192
He even visited me at home, but I didn't want to see him because I was just so angry.
193
I even stopped talking to my friends and would eat lunch in the classroom, alone.
194
I just couldn't see Valerie and Axel sitting together and the way she gave me those wicked smirks.
195
I hated her so much, but I channeled all of my attention into my studies, and sometimes Even the teachers would ask me to crack a joke or something,
196
saying they missed the goofy old Mary.
197
But that Mary?
198
Well, she was gone.
199
After ninth grade, I switched schools and cut off all ties with my friends from there.
200
I wanted to start new, and I was going to do well in my new school.
201
I got into competitive cheerleading, and one time in high school, we had a competition, and after the first routine, I spotted Axel backstage.
202
The moment our eyes met, I tripped and scraped my knee.
203
At once, Axel came running to me and helped me out, and then he brought out a bandage to put it on the little scrape.
204
He still cared for me, like he used to.
205
He had just gotten even more handsome.
206
Um, it's good now.
207
You'll survive the next round.
208
So, um, how have you been?
209
Without even answering, I got up to leave, but he held my hand.
210
Aw, Mary, I've missed you so much.
211
I am so sorry.
212
I tried contacting you, but you shut me out.
213
I had been meaning to tell you how I felt, then everything got crazy, but just hear me out, please.
214
Gosh, I had missed him too, like crazy in these two years.
215
But when I was about to say something, I heard an ugly voice.
216
Come on, Axel.
217
It's our routine.
218
Oh, a blast from the past.
219
Hmm.
220
I see you're still a clumsy little thing.
221
Oh, I see that you're still a little witch.
222
I was determined to win the competition because I knew what it meant to Valerie.
223
So I put my all into these routines.
224
When Valerie's team performed, their performance was all glitz and glamour with fireworks at the end. So extra.
225
When we were all called onto the stage for the results, it turned out Valerie and my team had a tie.
226
And we had to share the trophy.
227
No way.
228
This trophy is mine.
229
Not on my watch.
230
Just then, I let go of the trophy and Valerie went crashing backwards.
231
She totally deserved it.
232
All of a sudden, there was smoke and someone screamed fire.
233
Turned out the stupid fireworks Valerie and her team did at the end of the routine caused a fire.
234
It was panic and chaos all over.
235
The entire hall had been emptied, but while running to the exit, I realized Valerie was still there, where she had fallen.
236
I just couldn't leave her.
237
Valerie, where are you?
238
Mary, I'm here.
239
I'm stuck.
240
Just when I moved forward to look for her, someone grabbed me and dragged me out of the hall.
241
It was Axel.
242
Oh my god, Valerie's still in there.
243
Someone's gotta help her!
244
Axel, we've got to go back in there!
245
Oh no!
246
Valerie!
247
Someone, please get my baby out of there!
248
Please!
249
The fire was blazing and I felt my heart sink.
250
But then Mom came to my aunt.
251
Don't worry, I'll get her.
252
Don't you dare lose hope.
253
Everyone, stay back.
254
Mom went inside and each minute felt like a thousand years.
255
I was so worried.
256
Seeing my aunt cry, I went and sat by her side and she instantly hugged me.
257
I'm so sorry, honey.
258
I'm so sorry for everything.
259
I hurt your mom.
260
Because of what I did, your and Valerie's friendship suffered.
261
I'm so sorry for everything.
262
I just hope my Valerie will be alright.
263
At that moment, I regretted each and every mean word I'd ever said to Valerie.
264
All the drama, all the fights.
265
None of that mattered right now.
266
The only thing that mattered was family.
267
And just then, I saw mom coming out of the hall.
268
She was carrying Valerie in her arms.
269
Thank God they were both safe!
270
All of a sudden, there were cheers and happy tears and we all hugged.
271
Me, Mom, Valerie and my aunt, we all hugged like there was no tomorrow.
272
After we were given first aid, Axel and I sat on a bench and watched as Mom and my aunt patched things up and were all in tears.
273
After my aunt thanked and apologized so much, it seemed Mom was willing to give her another chance.
274
You gotta admit, you have one really dramatic family.
275
Says the boy who blew his own fuse getting an F.
276
Yep, I still remember that.
277
By the way, what were you saying earlier?
278
Something you wanted to tell me?
279
Oh, that.
280
That was nothing.
281
I mean, it was something.
282
Like, you know.
283
Oh my gosh!
284
Mary, Axel likes you.
285
A lot.
286
And Mary likes you too.
287
Sorry guys, I had to.
288
You guys would have taken forever!
289
I just shook my head and laughed, and then looked into Axel's eyes.
290
We kissed for the first time and it was perfect.

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
