Theirが何を指しているのか、教えて欲しいです
noname#259322の回答
The practitioners of alternative medicine(代替医療の実践者） だと思います。 この文章はわかりにくいですが、thoseが理解できれば自動的にtheirの意味もついてきます。 thoseはmethodsですよね。 The practitioners of alternative medicine often use methods different from those of their medical counterparts. 代替医療の実践者は、彼らの医療的counterpartsたちとは異なる手法を用いる、 という文章です。 だからこの時点でも彼ら＝代替医療の実践者であることがわかりますが… counterpartsの意味は、英辞郎の１がわかりやすいです。 ＞1.〔異なる組織で機能が〕同等の［対応する］人［もの］◆ https://eow.alc.co.jp/search?q=counterpart Cambridge Dictionaryの意味も同じですが、例文がより理解させやすくしてくれるので引用します。 ＞a person or thing that has the same purpose as another one in a different place or organization: こちらは訳すと「異なる場所や組織において、同じ目的を持つ人や物」でしょうか。 少しわかりにくいので例文を見ます。 その例文は ＞The prime minister is to meet his European counterparts to discuss the war against drugs. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/ja/dictionary/english/counterpart です。 訳すと「首相は、麻薬との戦いについて話し合うため、欧州各国の関係者（首相と同等の立ち位置にいる人たち）と会談する予定である。」といったところでしょうか。 このthe prime ministerは話し手の母国の首相です。日本だとします。日本とEUとでは国が違います。その違う国同士でも、「麻薬への取り組みという点で同じ責任を担っている立場の人たち」がいるわけで、この文章は首相はその「異なる国の、同じ立場の人たち」に麻薬対策の協議のために会う予定だ、がこの例文の言っている意味です。 これでcounterpartの意味がつかめるのではないでしょうか。 （ちなみにこうした使われ方はニュースなどで比較的よく目にするので、ニュアンスを覚えておくと便利です。） 参考書の文章に戻ります。 今度は逆から説明します。 The practitioners of alternative medicine often use methods different from those of their medical counterparts. theirの意味でしたね。 their medical counterpartsとは誰か、を考えると、（ふつうの）医者たちです。 科学的根拠を積み上げて標準医療を行う医者たちをcounterpartsと呼んでいます。 つまりこの文章は、代替療法の実践者を「病院という組織とは違う場所にいるが、患者を治すという目的では同じ立ち位置にいる」と表現しているわけです。 だからthierはThe practitioners of alternative medicineです。 ものすごくくどく翻訳すると、 代替医療の実践者たちは、医療的には代替医療の実践者たちと違う場所で働くが同じ立場にいる者たちとは異なる手法を用いることが多い、 となります。 伝わっていますでしょうか…。 誤室温とは関係がありませんが…。 代替医療には科学的根拠がありません。だから病院で医者として働けないのです。 逆に、医学は、科学的根拠を積み上げたうえで最善を選択する手法を取っています。 人類はまだすべてを解き明かせているわけじゃないから、現代の医学にもまだ限界があります。病気やけがで苦しむ人たちを、全て患者が期待する通り、完全に、魔法のように治せるわけじゃない。 でも、代替医療はそういう病気やけがに苦しむ人たちの死の恐怖につけこむエセ科学です。 ほとんどの場合、悪徳療法といってもいい。 患者に治るとウソの夢を見させて、現代医療では手遅れになるまで放置させ、その間に多額の金銭を巻き上げる醜い金の亡者ばかり。 そんなエセ科学を振りかざして人の心をもてあそぶ悪党を、「医者の医療的counterparts」と呼ぶのは、代替療法を擁護しすぎだと思います。 たった一文ですが、胸糞が悪くなる文章です。

お願いします (1) If you became sick in ancient times, Egypt was where you would want to be. It offered the best medical care. The Greek poet Homer writes in about 725 BCE in the Odyssey about Egyptian doctors, "In medical knowledge the Egyptian leaves the rest of the world behind." Egyptians began practicing medicine by applying salves to the eyes as long as 6,000 years ago, and over the millennia their skills became world renowned, so much so that rulers of other countries sent for Egyptian doctors to cure their ills. Their treatments may sound primitive to us, but no doubt 6,000 years from now our "modern medicine" will seem positively barbaric to future scientists. (2) In many ways, medicine in ancient Egypt was like medicine today. Doctors then studied for many years in medical schools called peru-ankh, or "houses of life." They studied textbooks to learn how to recognize diseases by their symptoms and hat to do to cure the patient. The Greek historian Diodorus Siculus writes, "They administer their treatments in accordance with a written law which was composed in ancient times by many famous physicians." (3) The Ebers Papyrus is one of the oldest medical documents from anywhere in the ancient world. The papyrus scroll is more than 60 feet long and is inscribed on both sides. Some of the cures don't sound too bad. For indigestion the Ebers Papyrus advises patients to "crush a hog's tooth and put it inside four sugar cakes. Eat for four days." But other cures sound pretty disgusting. For a cut, "after the scab has fallen off put on it: Scribe's excrement. Mix in fresh milk and apply as a poultice."

Pericles' Funeral Oration 431 BC: "...In the fighting, they thought it more honourable to stand their ground and suffer death than to give in and save their lives. So they fled from the reproaches of men, abiding with life and limb the brunt of battle, and in a small moment of time, the climax of their lives, a culmination of glory, not of fear, were swept away from us." 後半が分かりません。 よろしくお願い致します。

今度の水曜日（2/17）のAM８：００までにエキサイト翻訳とかを使わずに英文を日本語に訳してください。お願いします。 ・Is something missing from modern medicine? People get sick when they are unhappy. This is the belief of Dr.Bernie Siegel, an American pediatric and general surgeon who has written numerous books for patients and doctors. He feels that modern medicine over-emphasizes scientific knowledge and information. In particular, it dose not pay enough attention to the relationship between a person's feelings about life and their physical condition. Medical students and young doctors often say that their motivation to be doctors is not help people, and not to earn a high salary or to enjoy high social status. But, claims Siegel, the training they receive harms them by not teaching them to treasure this beautiful motivation. ・Patients can learn from their sickness For Siegel, it is important to view sickness as an opportunity to learn. He has studied patients who survive a serious illness, observing how they live longer than their doctors expect. He say these are usually people who notice their feelings and are able to accept them. A serious illness may, for example, make a patient feel angry about having wasted years doing a job that now seems meaningless. Some patients might never face these feelings. By noticing their feelings and expressing their emotions, he says, patients are able to make wise choices with regard to their treatment. Patients need to be encouraged to accept and enjoy being themselves more than they could before they became sick. They can become more aware of something deep within themselves. This new approach to life that has come from their sickness then begins to bring benefits to their bodies, and they are often able, to an important extent, to heal themselves. ・Doctors can learn from remarkable recoveries Patients are sometimes cured and survive against all the predictions of their doctors. But the medical profession tends to ignore remarkable cases which do not fit into the conventional way of solving medical problems. Conventional medical training does not teach doctors the importance of learning from cases of patients being cured for reasons that are not directly caused by medical treatment. Nor do medical schools teach doctors the value of other patients finding inspiration from such cases.

自分で試行錯誤してみたのですが、的を得た訳ができません。 よろしくお願いいたします。 Wealthier countries that have already had the benefit of massive fossil fuel use in their development are well-prepared to ease away from these more rudimentary energy sources, while poorer and developing nations that have not yet built their manufacturing base and infrastructure could experience faster growth by using the same methods of their larger counterparts – except that they’re now facing pressure to slow down as well.
