00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,000
Hello everyone.

2
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:04,000
Welcome back to ReadMaster.

3
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,000
I am Minhee Teacher.

4
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:11,000
Today we are reading The Girl Who Drank the Moon, Part Two:

5
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,000
Memory and Magic.

6
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:18,000
In Part One, Luna was filled with moonlight and became magical.

7
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,000
In Part Two, she is growing up.

8
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:26,000
She is loved, but she does not understand everything about

9
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,000
herself.

10
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,000
Her magic is powerful, but it is hidden.

11
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,000
Her past is important, but it is also hidden.

12
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,000
This part asks a careful question.

13
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:44,000
If someone hides the truth to protect a child, is that always

14
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,000
the right choice?

15
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,000
Let's make the idea simple.

16
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:54,000
Imagine you have a box in your room, but nobody tells you what

17
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,000
is inside.

18
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,000
Every day you walk past the box.

19
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,000
You may ignore it for a while, but the box is still there.

20
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,000
Hidden truth works like that.

21
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:11,000
It does not disappear just because nobody talks about it.

22
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:17,000
Luna thinks she is ordinary, but the reader knows she is not

23
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,000
ordinary.

24
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,000
Her magic keeps trying to show itself.

25
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:27,000
Xan wants to protect Luna, but protection becomes complicated

26
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:31,000
when it also keeps Luna from knowing who she is.

27
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:37,000
At the same time, Antain begins to question the rules of the

28
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,000
Protectorate.

29
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,000
He has seen pain.

30
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,000
He has seen fear.

31
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:47,000
He has heard the official story, but something inside him says,

32
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:52,000
"This cannot be the whole truth." So Part Two is about memory

33
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,000
and identity.

34
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,000
Memory helps a person understand where she came from.

35
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,000
Identity means who a person is.

36
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:07,000
If memory is locked away, identity becomes harder to understand.

37
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,000
Let's learn five useful words.

38
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,000
First, memory.

39
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:15,000
Memory is something you remember from the past.

40
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,000
Memory helps people understand themselves.

41
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,000
Second, consequence.

42
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:26,000
A consequence is what happens because of an action.

43
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,000
A secret can have consequences.

44
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,000
Third, ordinary.

45
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Ordinary means normal, not special or unusual.

46
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:40,000
Luna thinks she is ordinary, but the reader knows there is more

47
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,000
to her.

48
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,000
Fourth, apprentice.

49
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:48,000
An apprentice is a person learning a skill from someone

50
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,000
experienced.

51
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Antain begins as an apprentice, but he also begins to think for

52
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,000
himself.

53
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,000
Fifth, crack.

54
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,000
A crack is a small opening or break.

55
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:05,000
In a story, a crack can let the truth come in.

56
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,000
Now let's practice shadowing.

57
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,000
Listen first, then repeat.

58
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,000
Memory helps a person understand identity.

59
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,000
A hidden truth does not disappear.

60
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,000
Luna thinks she is ordinary.

61
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,000
Antain begins to question the rules.

62
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,000
A small crack can change a whole story.

63
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,000
Very good.

64
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Here is your final thinking question.

65
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:36,000
Do children need the truth even when the truth is painful?

66
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Think about Luna and Antain as you answer.

67
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:45,000
Next time, we will follow maps, journeys, and better questions.

68
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:45,000
See you in the next lesson.
