Heavy Weather by P.
2
G. Woodhouse Read by Martin Jarvis Sunshine pierced the haze that enveloped London.
3
It came down Fleet Street, turned to the right, and stopped at the premises of the Mammoth Publishing Company.
4
Entering through an upper window, it beamed pleasantly upon Lord Tilbury, founder and proprietor of that vast factory of popular literature,
5
literature, as he sat reading the batch of weekly papers which his secretary had placed on the desk for his inspection.
6
Considering what a pleasant rarity sunshine in London is, one might have expected the man behind the mammoth to beam back.
7
Instead he pressed the buzzer.
8
His secretary appeared.
9
He pointed silently.
10
The secretary drew the shade, and the sunshine, having called without an appointment, was excluded.
11
"'Oh, I beg your pardon, Lord Tilbury.' "'Well?' "'A Lady Julia Fish has just rung up.
12
"'She says she would like to see you this morning.' "'Lord Tilbury frowned.
13
"'He remembered Lady Julia Fish as an agreeable hotel acquaintance "'during his recent holiday at Bieritz, but this was Tilbury House,
14
and he did not desire the company of hotel acquaintances.
15
Did she say what she wanted?
16
No, Lord Tilbury.
17
The secretary withdrew.
18
Lord Tilbury returned to his reading.
19
The particular periodical which had happened to come to hand was the current number of that admirable children's paper, Tiny Tots.
20
But presently he threw it down, and for the third time since it had arrived by the morning post, picked up a letter which lay on the desk.
21
It was brief, but it had ruined Lord Tilbury's day.
22
It ran, Blanding's Castle, Shropshire.
23
Dear sir, enclosed fine cheque for the advance you paid me on those reminiscences of mine.
24
I've been thinking it over, and have decided not to publish them after all.
25
Yours truly, G.
26
Threepwood.
27
Lord Tilbury rose from his chair and began to pace the room.
28
Short and stumpy, and about twenty-five pounds overweight, he looked like Napoleon taking his morning walk at St Helena.
29
And yet, oddly enough, there were men in England who would have whooped with joy at the sight of that letter.
30
In this world everything depends on the point of view.
31
Some months before, the news had got about that the on Galahad Threepwood, brother of the Earl of Emsworth,
32
and as sprightly an old gentleman as was ever thrown out of a Victorian music hall, was writing the recollections of his colourful career as a man about town.
33
The shock to many now highly respectable members of the governing classes was severe.
34
All over the country decorous dukes and steady Viscounts, who had once sown wild oats in the society of the young Galahad, sat quivering in their slippers,
35
at the thought of what long-covered skeletons those reminiscences might disclose.
36
To not a few, Lord Emsworth's nearest neighbour, Sir Gregory Parslow-Parslow of Matchingham Hall, was one of them.
37
It was as if the recording angel had suddenly decided to rush into print.
38
Lord Tilbury, however, had looked on the thing from a different angle.
39
He knew, no man better, what big money there was in this type of literature.
40
The circulation of his nasty little paper, Society Spice, proved that.
41
Even though Percy Pilbeam, its nasty little editor, had handed in his portfolio and gone off to start a private inquiry agency,
42
it was still a goldmine.
43
There is a tender spot in all great men.
44
Achilles had his heel, with Lord Tilbury it was his pocket.
45
He hated to see money get away from him, and out of this book of galley Threepwoods he'd been looking forward to making a small fortune.
46
Little wonder then that he mourned.
47
He was still mourning when his secretary entered bearing a slip of paper.
48
Name Lady Julia Fish, business personal.
49
At a time like this, tell her I'm— And then there flashed into his mind a sudden recollection of something about this Lady Julia Fish.
50
The words Blanding's Castle seemed involved.
51
He turned to his de Bret's peerage and searched among the Es for Emsworth Earl of.
52
There it was.
53
Lady Julia Fish had been born Lady Julia Threepwood.
54
She was a sister of the perjured Galahad.
55
That altered things.
56
The woman would not be calling unless she wanted to get something out of him.
57
To inform her in person that she was most certainly not going to get it would be balm to his lacerated feelings.
58
"'Ask her to come up.'

이 클립으로 배울 영어 말하기 실력

이 비디오는 영어 쉐도잉 연습에 최적화된 내용으로, 두 가지 핵심 말하기 기술을 키울 수 있습니다. 첫째, 자연스러운 대화 흐름에서의 대화 주제 변환을 익힐 수 있습니다. 로드 틸버리와 비서, 레이디 줄리아 피시 간의 대화는 갑작스러운 주제 전환이 많아 실제 의사소통에서 필요한 유연성을 기르는 데 도움됩니다. 둘째, 감정 표현의 음성화를 연습할 수 있습니다. 로드 틸버리의 분노와 근심, 비서의 경건함 등이 음성의 강도와 속도로 표현되므로, 단어뿐 아니라 목소리로 감정을 전달하는 방법을 배울 수 있습니다.

들어야 할 연속 발음 현상

영어 발음 교정에 중요한 연결 발음과 축약 발음이 이 비디오에서 많이 등장합니다. 예를 들어 "it came down"은 [ɪt keɪm daʊn]이 아니라 [ɪt keɪm daʊn]으로 연결되어 발음되며, "did she say"는 [dɪd ʃi seɪ]가 아니라 [dɪdʒi seɪ]로 축약됩니다. 또한 "I've been thinking"은 [aɪv bɪn θɪŋkɪŋ]이 아니라 [aɪv bɪn θɪŋkɪŋ]으로 연결되어 자연스러운 흐름을 만듭니다. 이러한 현상을 주의 깊게 듣고 shadow speech로 따라하면, 원어민처럼 부드러운 발음을 구사할 수 있습니다.

원어민처럼 말하는 방법: 리듬과 강세

원어민의 말투를 흉내내기 위해선 리듬과 강세를 중점으로 연습해야 합니다. 이 비디오의 화자는 문장에서 중요한 정보를 강조하기 위해 단어의 강세를 달리합니다. 예를 들어 "He hated to see money get away from him"에서 "hated", "money", "away"가 강세를 받아 발음되며, 이를 통해 문장의 중심 의미를 전달합니다. 또한, 문장의 리듬은 짧은 단어와 긴 단어의 조합으로 이루어져 있는데, "Short and stumpy, and about twenty-five pounds overweight"에서 쉼표를 기준으로 리듬을 나누면 자연스러운 말투를 연습할 수 있습니다. shadowing site에서 이 클립을 반복적으로 따라하면, 이러한 리듬과 강세를 익히는 데 큰 도움이 될 것입니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
