トマ・ピケティ「21世紀の資本」の要約本の中の英文
今話題になっているトマ・ピケティの「21世紀の資本」（Capital in the twenty-first century)の、要約本（An Executive Summary of Thomas Piketty's Capital in the Twenty-First Century)のIntroduction/Synopsisの中の英文で、構造が良く分からない英文があります。 先進国世界で格差が広がっているとの前置きの後、 Where there is dispute is in trying to explain just why the rise in inequality has taken place (and whether, and to what degree, it will continue in the future); and, even more importantly, whether it is justified. というセンテンスが来るのですが、上の英文の中で、"Where there is dispute is in trying to ..."とisが続けざまに出てくるところが、文構造的によく理解できません。恐れ入りますが、どなたか解説、若しくは訳して頂けないでしょうか。よろしくお願いいたします。

文法的には Where there is dispute で主語 「論争のあるところ」は 「論争がどこにあるかというと」 where で名詞節、先行詞 place を含む関係副詞か、疑問詞として間接疑問か。 そして、主たる動詞 is をはさんで、 in trying to ～「～しようとすることの中に」ある

Flying cars are even more prevalent in The Jetsons, a 1962 animated TV series about a “typical family” of the twenty-first century. Bubble-topped machines, apparently jet-powered and computer-controlled, have completely replaced the family station wagon (and, apparently, all other forms of ground transportation). The Jetson family’s car is capable of supersonic speeds and rock-steady hovering, and it folds itself into a briefcase when not in use. Typically, for stories about the future, it is ordinary to its users and astonishing to twentieth-century audiences. Blade Runner(1982) is nominally set in in the first decade of the twenty-first century, but its nightmarish vision of a more distant future. Residents are unfazed, therefore, when flying cars swoop overhead and a flying police cruiser descends vertically into their midst. お願いします＾＾；

「次の英語を要約せよ」とあったのですが、英文要約は初めてで、どこが重要なのか分からなく、要約できなくて困っています。 次の文章の要約、もしくはそのヒントとなることを教えていただけると幸いです。 （次の文章は、過去のどこかの国公立大学の二次試験だったそうです。） 次の英文の内容を130～150字程度の日本語に要約せよ。ただし、句読点文字数に含める。 Those who have studied the human brain have long known that it has two hemispheres, and that each performance specific functions. The right side of the brain is thought to govern the motor functions of the left side of the body. It is also the side that performance "nonrational" mental functions, such as intuition, pattern recognition, nonverbal communication, playfulness, abstraction, and the like. The left hemisphere of the brain controls the right side of the body, and the "rational" functions of logic, calculation, verbal articulation, structured observation, analysis, and so forth. Recent evidence that expands our knowledge of these differences has become from work with brain-impaired patients. In sum, the evidence suggests that people who have had damage to the left side of the brain suffer losses of speech, writing ability, and the ability to performance logical calculation. They continue, however, to function normally in therms of "nonrational" activities. The opposite is also found to be true: damage to the right side of the brain results in loss of the spatial sense, of nonverbal skills, of such qualities as humor, color sensitivity, and intuition. This evidence has led to speculation that differences in hemisphere dominance produce differences in thinking and in the approach to problems. Although they are still highly speculative, these notions do provide support for the existence of preferences in styles of thinking. If it were found that the anatomy and physiology of the brain does indeed govern the styles of thinking that people have developed, would that mean that nothing could be done to alter them? It is of course a possibility, one that would explain the persistence of particular styles of thinking throughout life. But we doubt that the governance of the physical brain is at all absolute. There is entirely too much evidence in favor of the flexibility of the human mind. We suspect that the brain is capable of altering its own capabilities. There are too many people we have seen who have learned to think out of the "other side" of their brains. 文字数の関係で、訳まで入れることができませんでした。 どうか、英文要約の第一歩の手助けを宜しくお願いします

Despite Galton's finding of high inherited ability in scientists, a standard biographical study of great mathematicians, Men of Mathematics by the mathematician Eric Temple Bell, first published in 1937, shows just how little inherited mathematical ability is, at the highest level of achievement. Some great mathematicians came from lowly backgrounds. Newton was the son of a yeoman farmer; Carl Friedrich Gauss, the son of a gardener; Pierre-Simon Laplace, the son of a parish official and cider merchant. Others came from professional backgrounds. But of the 28 mathematicians of all time described by Bell, beginning with Zero in the 5th century BC, where ancestral information is available, it shows that there is hardly a trace of mathematical achievement to be found in any of the fathers and close relatives. (Genius by Andrew Robinson) But of the 28 mathematicians of all time described by Bell, beginning with Zero in the 5th century BC, where ancestral information is available,のところを教えてください。 whereがなぜここに置かれているのでしょうか？ 文法的には関係副詞ですか？ よろしくお願いいたします。

この英文の要約を簡単にお願いします！ (1)At a recent town meeting, residents of a rural Australian town voted to ban the sale of bottled water. They are probably the first community in the world to do so. This decision, made by residents of Bundanoon, was the second blow in one day to Australia's bottled drinks industry. Hours earlier, the New South Wales state government had banned all state departments and agencies from buying bottled water, calling it a waste of money and natural resources. (2)First popular in the 1980s as a convenient, healthy alternative to sweet drinks, bottled water today is attracting criticism for being environmentally damaging. Not only are used plastic bottles filling up garbage disposal sites, their production and distribution also use up large amounts of energy. (3)Because of these reasons, over the past few years, at least 60 local governments in the US and a number of others in Canada and the UK have agreed to stop spending public public money on bottled water, which public officials used to consume during meetings. But this is the first time that a community has banned the sale of bottled water. (4)Bundanoon's battle against the bottle began some years ago, when a Sydney-based company announced plans to pump local water out of the ground. Residents were furious about the possibility of an outside company taking local water, trucking ip to Sydney for bottling, and then selling it back to them. The town is still fighting the company's proposal in court. (5)Then in March, Huw Kingston, who owns the town's cafe and bike shop, decided that if the town was so opposed to hosting a water bottling company , it should also ban the end product, or in other words, bottled water. To prevent damaging the town's businesses that sell bottled water, Kingston suggested they instead sell bottles that could be used again and again, for the same price. Residents would be able to fill the bottles for free at public water tank, or pay a small fee to fill them with local water in the town's shops. (6)Over 300 people voted on the ban. This was the biggest assembly ever for a town meeting. Only two people voted against the proposal. One of them said he was worried that banning bottled water would encourage people to consume more sweet drinks. The other was Geoff Parker, direct of the Australasian Bottled Water Institute, which represents the bottled water industry. Parker attacked the ban as unfair and ineffective. He said that the bottled water industry is a leader in finding ways to reduce human impact on the environment, and also that the ban reduces consumer choice. “To take away the consumer's right to choose the healthiest drink option goes against common sense,” he stated. (7)But tap water is just as good as the water you find bottled in plastic, said the campaign organiser Jon Dee, who serves as director of the Australian environment group “Do Something!”. "We're hoping this ban will make people remember the days when we did not have bottled water," he said
