和訳をお願いします(>_<) In 1837 Sir Rowland Hill, an Englishman, devised a new system for playing postal fees. In those days most countries required the person who received the letter to play the postage. It was Sir Rowland Hill's idea that ( 24 ) should attach a stamp to show that the necessary postage had been paid. His plan was put into practice, and in 1840 Great Britain issued the first postage stamp, which the person who had written the letter would put on the letter before it was sent. This stamp, known as the Penny Black, showed a picture of Queen Victoria and the woulds “Postage ”and “One Penny.”

1837年に、イギリス人のロウランド・ヒル卿は、郵便料金を払うための新しいシステムを考案しました。 その頃、大部分の国は、郵便料金の支払いを手紙を受け取った人に要求していました。 必要な郵便料金が、支払われたことを示すために切手を貼ると言うのは、ロウランド・ヒル卿の考えでした。 彼の計画は実施され、1840年に、大英帝国は、最初の郵便切手を発行しました、その切手を、手紙が送られる前に、手紙を書いた人が、手紙に貼るのです。 ペニーブラックとして知られるこの切手は、ビクトリア女王の絵と「郵便料金」と「1ペニー」の語を表示していました。 ☆ 少しタイプミスがあったようですので、類推で訂正して訳しました。 （例）playing→paying, woulds→words

和訳をお願いします 長くなってすみません(>_<) Stamp collecting is one of the most interesting of all hobbies. People collect stamps for different reason. Some just like to get stamps together and arrange them in an album. Others are interested in the history, geography, and culture of the countries whose stamps they collect. Still others are attracted to stamps because of the many interesting subjects pictured on them. Almost every collector dreams of one day finding a “sleeper.” This is a rare or valuable stamp that has not been noticed among stamps worth little or nothing.

I was told there was a reunification specialist located a couple of hours away from the hotel we were staying at who was willing to work with me and my family . I wasn't sure what to say about this offer . Traditional therapy did not appeal to me. The therapy I kept envisioning consisted of me and a small room and someone I didn't know , which was the last thing I wanted . I felt I had worked through what had happened to me and I had always kept my own counsel and thought I was my own best therapist . I didn't want to meet another stranger . In the day and a half , I had met so many new people that I was really overwhelmed. Ultimately, what convinced me to seek the help of this person was the mention of horses . The impression I got of this person was that of an older lady with a ranch and horses and plenty of room for us to come and get our feet on the ground for a few days . わからないところがいくつかあります。また、訳していて、日本語になっていないような感もあります。参考にして勉強したいとおもいますので、宜しくお願いします。

After the regular season was over, Roberto returned to Puerto Rico as the greatest sports hero in all of Latin America. He was not only a great player on the field, but also an even Greater person off the field. He won fame and money through baseball, but never forgot that most people in Latin America were poor. He always told his family that he had a duty to help those who had not been as lucky as he had been. During the off-season that year, Roberto volunteered to manage a baseball team of young Puerto Ricans. While he and his team were staying in Managua, Nicaragua, Roberto heard about a fourteen-year-old boy named Julio. He had lost both his legs in an accident, but had no money for artificial legs. Roberto arranged to get them for Julio. Roberto went to see him and told him that he would be able to walk again. It was usual for Roberto to give a helping hand to people like Julio.

The little victim not only has a plaque in her honor,but she has appeared on postage stamps in many countries in honor of her sacrifice.Chocolate and cigarette brands have been named for her.There is a memorial website for her as well.More than 50years after her death,Laika is still one of the most famous dogs of all time.

(1)The story that Sir Walter Raleigh first planted them in Ireland is probably a myth. (2)The driver explained, ' There was a notice in today's paper that you were arriving in Paris from the south of France.' (3)He had a vague notion, if he ever formulated it, that nice men treated them with a polite but rather distant chivalry. (4)The money made from goods produced by factories can be used to buy the food that is still needed and cannot be produced at home. (5)It is natural that industrialists should choose areas favored with these conditions in order to build factories. (6)In 1795, France was having a hard time.She was not only fighting most of Europe, but she was also in the midst of a revolution at home.

What is a good letter? Simply put, a letter is "good" when it achieves the purpose its writer had in mind. (1)The purpose may be to convince a potential buyer that she or he ought to become a regular customer, to collect a payment that is late without offending the reader, to win back a customer who has quit buying, to calm down someone who has been mistreated, to obtain a favor, or simply to win a friend. When the person who receives the letter reacts in the manner the writer hoped for, the letter is effective. 何がよい手紙であるのか？手紙によって、書いた人が心の中に抱いた目的が達成された時、その手紙は上手である。その目的は、買い手に、貴方は常連客になるべきだということを納得させるということかもしれないし、読み手を不愉快にさせることなく滞納している支払いを徴収することかもしれないし、買うのをやめようとしている顧客を説得することかもしれない、虐待された人を静めることかもしれないし、支持を得ることかもしれないし、単に友達に勝つということかもしれない。その手紙を受け取った人が、書いた人が期待した方法で反応した時、その手紙は効力がある。 うまく日本語に訳せません。添削の方よろしくお願いします。

INTELLIGENCE AND AGEING The same thing seems to happen with mental abilities too. For example, intelligence is often inaccurately cited as one of the areas which declines with age. For many years, people 'knew' that various abilities, including intelligence and physical strength, reached their peak in the early twenties, and then declined steadily from then on thoughout a person's life. This knowledge was based on a series of studies, resported by Miles in 1931, which involved measuring various human characteristics in people of different ages. When they plotted the results of these measurements on a graph, Miles found a steady decline: the older the person was, the less strong, or intelligent (as measured by IQtests) or able they were. Other reseachers found similar results, so for a great many years there was a strong belief in an inevitable decline with age. Indeed this belief is still held by a great many people, including some doctors and social workers, but when we look more carefully at the evidence, what we find is actually quite a different picture. Cross-sectional methods The problem was that all of these studies were done using cross-sectional methods. That is, the reseacher tested several different groups of people, or different ages. But someone who was 60 in 1930 had experienced quite a different upbringing and lifestyle from someone who was 20 at that time. Their schooling was quite different, their life experiences were quite different, and their standards of living were different too. The same thing applied to cross-sectional studies that were conducted later on in the education and health care which had taken place. It wasn't surprising, for example, that older people did badly on intelligence tests in the 1960s, when they had experienced an education which consisted, in the main, of leaning large chunks of infomation off by heart. Younger people, by contrast, had experienced a form of education which stressd reasoning and mental skills, and so they naturally performed much better on IQ tests.
