Jack and the Beanstalk A version of the tale by thefablecottage.com Once there was a young man named Jack.
2
He lived with his mother on a small farm at the foot of the foggy mountains.
3
Jack and his mother were very poor.
4
Their only way of making money was selling the milk from their cow, Bess.
5
One morning, Jack's mother woke him up early.
6
It was still dark outside.
7
She was crying.
8
Jack, wake up.
9
Go to the market today and sell our cow, Bess.
10
But why? asked Jack, yawning.
11
We need money to fix our house.
12
There are holes in the roof.
13
The windows are broken.
14
For heaven's sake, we've no front door.
15
Winter's coming soon.
16
If we don't fix the house,
17
the cold will kill us.
18
Jack packed his bag and fetched Bess from the barn.
19
As he was walking out the gate,
20
he heard his mother shout,
21
She's worth at least five gold coins Don't sell her for less When Jack was halfway to the market,
22
he met an old man Good morning,
23
my boy, said the old man Where are you going today?
24
Good morning, sir, replied Jack I'm going to the market to sell my cow Her name is Bess
25
She is a beautiful cow, said the man.
26
I will buy Bess and I will give you a very good deal.
27
How much will you pay for her?
28
I won't take less than five gold coins, said Jack.
29
I don't have five gold coins, whispered the man.
30
But I have these five black beans.
31
These beans are magic beans.
32
They are worth more than gold.
33
If you take these beans,
34
you will be richer than the richest man in the world.
35
Jack thought about his mother.
36
He thought about how happy she would be if they were rich.
37
They could fix the roof,
38
the windows and the front door.
39
Maybe they could buy a new cow.
40
OK, said Jack.
41
You've got a deal.
42
Give me the beans.
43
Jack was very excited.
44
He ran home and showed his mother the beans.
45
But instead of being happy, she was furious.
46
You foolish boy!
47
You traded our only cow for a handful of beans!
48
She took the beans and threw them out the window.
49
Then she sat down beside the fire and cried.
50
Jack was devastated.
51
He shut himself in his bedroom.
52
He felt so stupid.
53
They no longer had a cow and now they were poorer than before.
54
What a disaster!
55
And it was all his fault!
56
The next morning, when Jack opened the curtains,
57
he saw something very strange.
58
In the same place where his mother had thrown the beans,
59
there was a giant green beanstalk.
60
It stretched from the ground up,
61
up, up, all the way to the clouds.
62
The beans really are magic, whispered Jack.
63
The old man was telling the truth.
64
Jack's mother was still asleep,
65
so Jack decided to climb the beanstalk to look for the riches the old man had described.
66
Just five gold coins, thought Jack.
67
That's all I need to make my mother happy.
68
Jack climbed up, up, up,
69
higher and higher into the clouds.
70
When he reached the top, he was very hungry.
71
He saw a castle in the distance.
72
Maybe I can find something to eat in that castle, he thought.
73
Jack walked up to the door of the castle and knocked twice.
74
Knock, knock.
75
A giantess opened the door.
76
She was as big as a house,
77
but she had a warm smile and gentle eyes.
78
Excuse me, Mrs Giant, said Jack.
79
Could you please give me something to eat?
80
I am so hungry.
81
Oh, you poor boy, said the giantess.
82
She could see that Jack was very thin.
83
Of course.
84
Come in, come in.
85
The kind giantess gave Jack some vegetable stew.
86
He was enjoying it so much that he didn't notice when the kitchen table started to shake.
87
Stomp, stomp, stomp.
88
Loud footsteps echoed down the hallway.
89
Oh dear, whispered the giantess.
90
That is my husband.
91
He's home from work.
92
He doesn't like humans.
93
Quick, hide.
94
Jack hid in the pantry.
95
The giant stomped into the kitchen and sniffed the air.
96
Fee-fi-fo-fum.
97
Hello, my beautiful wife.
98
Wait, do I smell a human man?
99
Look, where is he?
100
Good evening, my darling husband," replied the giantess.
101
There is nobody here.
102
You smell the vegetable stew, nothing more.
103
Good," grunted the giant.
104
I hate humans.
105
He sat down at the table in the kitchen.
106
The giant took a small sack of gold coins out of his pocket and counted them.
107
One, two, three, four, five gold coins.
108
Jack watched from inside the pantry.
109
Five gold coins, thought Jack.
110
If I had that money,
111
I could fix our house.
112
When the two giants left the room,
113
Jack stole the five gold coins and slipped them into his bag.
114
This is all I need, thought Jack.
115
But then Jack remembered that his family no longer had a cow.
116
Without a cow, they would surely starve.
117
He decided to stay and look for other treasures.
118
He followed the giant into the living room and hid under the couch.
119
The giant went to the cupboard and pulled out a golden hen.
120
Hello, my beautiful hen.
121
Lay please, said the giant and the hen laid a golden egg.
122
Jack watched from under the couch.
123
A hen that lays golden eggs, whispered Jack.
124
If I had that hen,
125
I could buy 50 cows.
126
When the giant left the room,
127
Jack crawled out from under the couch.
128
He went to the cupboard,
129
took the hen and put it in his bag.
130
This is all I need, thought Jack.
131
But then Jack thought about what the old man had promised.
132
Jack imagined being richer than the richest man in the world.
133
He decided to see what other treasures he could find.
134
He followed the giant into the bedroom and hid under the bed.
135
There was a golden harp standing in a corner of the room.
136
Hello, my beautiful harp.
137
Play please, said the giant.
138
The harp began playing music with no one touching the strings.
139
Wow!
140
A magic harp! whispered Jack.
141
That harp would make me rich and famous.
142
When the giant fell asleep,
143
Jack crawled out from under the bed.
144
He took the magic harp and put it in his bag.
145
But this time, Jack was less lucky.
146
The magic harp screamed.
147
Help me, master!
148
A human is stealing me!
149
The giant woke up and saw Jack with the magic harp,
150
the golden hen and his gold coins.
151
Stop, thief!
152
The giant chased Jack, out of the bedroom,
153
down the hallway, through the kitchen and out the front door.
154
But Jack was smaller and faster than the giant.
155
Jack reached the beanstalk first and slid down.
156
He arrived at the ground with all his treasures.
157
The giant reached the top of the beanstalk and looked down.
158
He was afraid of heights.
159
He slowly climbed down.
160
Be careful, my husband! shouted the giantess from the castle.
161
Humans can be dangerous!
162
Jack saw the giant coming down the beanstalk.
163
So he ran into his house and grabbed an axe.
164
He chopped the beanstalk.
165
Whack!
166
Whack!
167
Whack!
168
Suddenly, the beanstalk snapped.
169
The giant came tumbling down from the sky.
170
He fell down, down, down and landed far away on the other side of the foggy mountains.
171
Thud!
172
For a moment, everything was silent.
173
Then Jack heard a strange sound from far away.
174
No!
175
It was the giant.
176
The beanstalk had fallen and now he had no way to get back up to his castle in the clouds.
177
The giant yelled so loudly that the clouds shook and turned grey.
178
Then, somewhere up in the sky,
179
Jack heard Mrs Giant start to cry.
180
Her tears fell through the clouds in tiny drops and soaked the earth.
181
After that, Jack and his mother lived a very comfortable life.
182
The golden hen made Jack a millionaire.
183
The magic harp made him famous.
184
Jack married a rich and famous woman,
185
and together they had ten children.
186
But Jack was never truly happy.
187
Every time the wind blew,
188
Jack heard the giant calling for his wife.
189
And every time it rained,
190
he felt the giant wife's tears falling on him.
191
Jack felt sad and guilty.
192
One day, when Jack was very old,
193
he decided that he didn't want to be sad anymore.
194
He opened a box on his mantelpiece and pulled out one last shriveled magic bean.
195
If he could find the giant,
196
he could grow another beanstalk.
197
Then the giant could climb back up to his castle in the clouds.
198
If he could find the giant,
199
he could also apologise for being so greedy.
200
Jack packed his bag and walked into the foggy mountains.
201
Did Jack find the giant?
202
Did he grow a new beanstalk with the last magic bean?
203
Nobody knows.
204
But, people say, if you listen closely during a thunderstorm,
205
you can hear the rumbling sound of two giants dancing together in the clouds.

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。
