英語のタイトル
英語のタイトル ある本に《↓》と題されていたのですが、もっといい（または別の）英語タイトル 思い付きますか。 《 No Free Lunch 》 There was in Sung a man, who tilled a field in which there stood the trunk of a tree. Once a hare, while running fast, rushed against the trunk, broke its neck, and died. Thereupon the man cast his plough aside and watched that tree, hoping that he would get another hare. Yet he never caught another hare and was himself ridiculed by the people of Sung. *Sung＝宋

＃１です。てっきりお困りなのだと思って、少しでもお役にたてればと考えたまでです。誤った印象を与えてしまい、失礼いたしました。説教や挑戦をしたつもりは毛頭ありません。

理想的なタイトルだと思いますが、それを替えなければいけない事情が何かあるのでしょうか？ 題名や見出しやキャッチコピー、といったものは、目的に合わせて雰囲気を伝えるためのものですから、替えたい事情や目的などがないと、アドバイスをしにくいのですが。
お礼
＞それを替えなければいけない事情が何かあるのでしょうか？ 「替えなければいけない」など誰も言ってません。 ＞替えたい事情や目的などがないと、アドバイスをしにくいのですが。 人の発想は様々です。食事ではなく毛皮を売ると発想する人がいるかもしれない。いたずらに待つ事の空しさに焦点をあてる人もいるかもしれない。そういった、人それぞれの着想を聞きたいと思っています（漢字を日常使っている日本人とそうではない外国人との違いにも興味があります）。それが目的です。 だから、この短文を読んで貴方が「思い付く」タイトルを自由に示していただければ結構です。 それと、せっかくですから… もし、お暇でしたらこちらにアドバイスお願いします。 虎の愚かさに焦点をあててタイトルを付けたいのですが、気の利いたタイトルが思いつきません。 A tiger hunts all the animals of the forest and devours them, but once when he caught a fox, the fox said, “You dare not eat me. The Lord of Heaven ordained me chief among beasts; if you now kill me you will be defying the will of Heaven. If you doubt that, follow behind me through the forest and watch the animals flee when they see me.” The tiger did indeed doubt the fox and therefore followed him. Animals saw them and fled, but the tiger did not realize the animals ran because they feared him. He had already been convinced they were afraid of the fox.
補足
＞題名や見出しやキャッチコピー、といったものは、目的に合わせて雰囲気を伝えるためのものですから、 「目的に合わせて」とはいいますが、これは故事（株守）ですから、大昔から受けつがれてきた、動かし難い話のポイントというものがあります。 特に質問者からリクエストがなければ、そのポイントを発想の軸に据えてタイトルを（回答できる人は）回答すればいいだけです。

(1)Victorian, by the sea. Where we are is private, but you can get into town. (2)I like that you can modernize the inside but let the bones remain. I think the Victorians got in right in the generosity of the rooms and the windows. (3)It was very stimulating, really, because he was shooting with a handheld camera over his shoulder, so he would talk to you and then go back in. Everything that Jamie and I went though, Sean was right there behind us, even for the battle at the end of the movie in the crypt. There was a sense that we were all in it together. (4)He wrote the movie, directed it, shot it, and was all over everything from costume to hair to makeup. You feel safe as an actor. And, as an actor, if you can’t feel safe, you can’t make a fool of yourself. (5)I’d been there once before in my foolish, misspent youth and drank a lot of beer. But when you’re working on a film as immersive as this, you kind of have to cancel reality.

Walters is a man of few words. When asked by the press why he did it, he said: 'You can't just sit there.' When asked if he was scared, he answered:'Wonderfully so.' When asked if he would do it again, he said: 'No.' And asked if he was glad that he did it, he grinned said:'Oh,yes.' The human race sits in its chair.On the one hand is the message that says there's nothing left to do.And people like Larry Walters are busy tying balloons to their chairs, directed by dreams and imagination to realize them.

One of the most painful circumstances of recent advances in science is that each of them makes us know less than we thought we did. When I was young we all knew, or thought we knew,that a man consists of a soul and a body;that the body is in time and space,but the soul is in the time only. Whether the soul survives death was a matter as to which opinions might differ,but that there is a soul was thought to be indubitable As for the body, the plain man considered its existence self-evident, and so did the man of science, but the philosopher was apt to analyze it away after one fashion or another. できるだけ詳しく教えていただけると嬉しいです。 よろしくお願い致しますm(_ _)m

こういった態度は簡単なようでなかなかとれないものだと思います。 多くは沈黙するだけでしょう。 それでも貴方のおっしゃる「誤解」をしたとは思ってないので付け足しておきます。 挑戦されたとは感じていません。ただ、他の人（特定の個人ではない）の質疑を見ていて、たいした回答も出来ないのに補足要求や説教だけは一人前の中高年を前々から苦々しく思っていました。 この手の人が私の質問に来た場合、その発言内容に応じて言葉を返す方針です。 「説教」というのはNo.2のことです。 そうです。困っていません。それでも、当たり前の辞書や文法書を引けば解決するような質問をしている人たちよりは困っているつもりです。
