予期もしない現象がおきているなか。（驚くべき現象） he says some of the surprises may cut in our favor, but adds, "I'd hate to count on that. We have only one world to play with." cut in our favor とありますよね？ 驚きのいくつかは、われわれに味方して消えるだろう。しかし、その可能性に頼りたくはない。 という感じの解釈をしているんですが。。 つまり　cut -　in our favor とわけたんですが。cutの自動詞としての役目を辞書で調べると、自分の望む訳がみつかりません。ってことはcut in - our favorのきるべきなんでしょうか。そう切った場合どう解釈すればいいのか検討がつきません。。お願いします。

こんにちは。 分け方は『cut-in our favor』で良いかと思います。 加えて言うならakio817さんご自身も 指す内容はなんとなく想像できているようですね。 鍵は『in our favor』の訳し方で、 『われわれに味方して』がどういう事か もう少し突き詰めると答えは出ます。 ちなみに私の場合は『私達に利益がある』という方向性で 『私達に都合よく』と訳してみました。 あと、『some』は『いくつかの～』という訳し方から 発展して『～なものもある』という訳し方もある という事も知恵として片隅に置くと良いと思います。

  • cut in our favor.??

    Sure, he says, some of the surprises may cut in our favor,but adds,"I'd hate to count on that" （驚く事⇔あまりおきてほしくない事　だと思います） という文なんですが。cut in our favor がどうしてもわかりません。　cut - in our favor とするのか cut in - our favorとするのか。自分は前者なんじゃないかとおもうんですが。 「われわれの味方になって、驚くことのいくつかが減るかもしれない。しかし、私はその希望にはたよりたくない」と解釈したんです。 でもcutを自動詞とみるわけなんですが、辞書にはそんな「減る」っていう意味がないんですよね。 どう訳せばいいんでしょうか？？ お願いします。

    さっぱり意味がわかりません。 翻訳できる方、よろしくお願いします。 Affection. Another surprise was that men crave affection—but not necessarily sex—more than women. “It’s counterintuitive,” says Orbuch, “but men crave feeling special and being noticed by their wives.” She adds that men who report not getting enough nonsexual affection were twice as likely to ask for a divorce, but the reverse was not true for women. “Women are fortunate. We get this kind of affirmation from more people in our lives, our mothers, children, our best friends”—so women tend to need less from husbands. She recommends carving out time for regular cuddling, kissing, hand holding, and saying “I love you.”

    Duganの事件に関する文章の訳の続きです。 キールという脳科学者が公聴会に参加してそこで脳データの有効性を主張した際、Birkettというlead prosecutorらがキールの話を聞いて判断した結果が The judge ultimately "cut the baby in half", says Birkett. He ruled that the jury would not be allowed to see Dugan's actual brain scans, but that Kiehl could describe them and how he interpreted them based on his research. という文章が書かれているのですがどういう風に訳して解釈すればいいのかわかりません。 赤子を半分に切るものだ。と陪審員の判断の最終的な判断という意味もわかりませんし、そして次に続く文章は 「彼はドーガンの実際の脳スキャンを陪審員に見せないが、キールがそれについての説明と彼の研究分野に基づく視点において解釈をしたのかを説明させることを規定した。」 と訳してみたのですがいかがでしょうか。 あと、 Prosecutors, Kiehl says, went to great lenghts to sow confusion about the data. という文章の訳はちんぷんかんぷんです。 ご教授お願い申し上げます。

    Andrew Jackson, deputy head of security at Novartis in Basel, Switzerland, says that industry is also being affected. On 9 February, Novartis’s offices in Barcelona were vandalized during a protest, and Jackson says that there has been an overall increase in both legal demonstrations and illegal acts. “We’ve had to increase the security of some of our facilities in Europe,” he says. Novartis says that incidents outside the United States and United Kingdom rose by nearly 50% last year to 97. There have been 15 events so far this year. Jackson believes that the protests and criminal acts are being fuelled in part by British activists travelling abroad. “There is a perception that EU law enforcement has something of a soft touch,” he says. Jackson says that he has noticed a correlation between availability of budget flights to Basel and extremist activity. “It makes for a fun weekend,” he notes wryly. But not everyone agrees that the British crackdown is behind increased activity elsewhere in Europe. Activists do occasionally go abroad to protest, says Amanda Richards, a spokesperson for SPEAK, an animal-rights group based in Northampton, UK, which has led a campaign against a primate laboratory at Oxford University (see Nature 438, 716; 2005). But she believes that the rise in Europe is due primarily to rising awareness on the continent. “It’s mainly people is the countries themselves,” she says. SPEAK has been contacted by several individuals and groups in Europe who want to organize events against animal testing, she adds. Janseen says that in the Netherlands at least, the government now appears to be taking animal-rights extremism more seriously. On 12 February, the Dutch parliament passed a motion to support the use of animal testing and condemning extremist acts. Janseen says that he hopes the motion will be followed by more rigorous law enforcement. よろしくお願いします＾＾；

    “Fundamentally,” he says, “what we are focused on is bringing people back to life from death or near-death, and reinventing or revolutionising the way we approach that.” Becker's key discovery is that cells don't die during that five-minute window. The real damage comes when the heart restarts and oxygen floods the tissues, a process known as reperfusion. “It's pretty well accepted that at the point at which the usual human being gets pronounced dead, all their cells are alive. It's a very eerie question: if all their cells are alive, what is death?” says Becker. Besides, if all the patient's cells are alive, why can't the patient recover and walk out of the hospital? “With our current therapies we can't do it.” One option, says Becker, is cooling the patient―by a few degrees, not to cryonic extremes―to buy time, an idea he says has been around for thousands of year. In studies, dogs and mice cooled before reperfusion have recovered better. “We believe it prevents reperfusion injury.” Cooling, he adds, is much quicker if you cool the blood directly, either by injecting a slurry of micro-ice particles or by using a bypass machine. Imagine, he says, a soldier in the Iraq war, bleeding to death while you watch. “If you could zap, perfuse him, put him on a plane, wing him to a major hospital and fix him all up―that's not at all crazy.” よろしくお願いします。

    I just found out that my brother, who I thought was in graduate school studying to be a teacher, is actually working as a prison guard. I'm the only one in the family who knows. When I phoned him to get the details, he told me that he'd quit school after one semester because he never really wanted to be a teacher. He said our parents bullied him into graduate school when he had trouble finding work after his college graduation. Prison guard was the first job he could get. I asked him why he is leading this double life. He said our parents told him that graduate school was "not negotiable." So he figures they can live with their delusions. At family dinners, Mom and Dad ask him about school, and he says, "Fine, but dull." Then they drone on and on about the importance of attending school since he couldn't find a job, and our grandfather makes a point of telling him how easy he has it compared to serving in Korea. Like we care. If they don't want to hear what my brother says, they shouldn't ask. Like we care.はどのような意味でしょうか？よろしくお願いします

    The latest study involved 40 patients infected with P. falciparum in Pailin, and another 40 in Wang Pha, in northwest Thailand2. Half of each group were given just artesunate, and the other half the dual artesunate–mefloquine therapy. The Cambodian group took almost twice as long to clear the parasite from their body as the Thai group: 84 hours compared with 48 hours. Usually artemisinin drugs clear the parasite within three days, says Nick Day, director of the Mahidol Oxford research unit in Bangkok and co-author of the study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine. Infection broke out again for six of the twenty patients taking just artesunate in Cambodia, compared with two patients in Thailand. With the combined therapy, it recurred in only one of the twenty cases in each group. The World Health Organization recommends that artemisinin-based drugs be given only in combination, to delay the onset of resistance. But Day explains that the single-dose groups were crucial in their controlled study to show that there was growing resistance to artesunate, and not to mefloquine alone. The emergence of artemisinin-resistant malaria in Cambodia is especially worrying, because previous drug-resistant strains of malaria have sprung from there. "This is a wake-up call," says Day. "We have got reduced susceptibility to the drugs in an area where we've seen resistance emerge before." Given time, the parasite will only become more resistant to the drugs, he adds. よろしくお願いしますorz

    However, explains Pettis, bees are hard to study. Most die away from the hive, so researchers don't have dead bodies to examine. And when researchers return to a hive after two weeks, about half the bees they studied on their first visit will be dead, replaced by new ones in the natural life cycle of bees. Making detective work even harder, these busy insects fly up to two miles away from their hive in search of pollen and nectar from flowers. So when bees pick up diseases or get exposed to poisons in their environment, it is hard to know exactly where that happened. "It isn't like studying a large animal like a cow that doesn't move around much and is easy to find out in the cow field," says Pettis. Researchers do have some ideas about what could be affecting bee health. They could be sick from poisons widely used to kill insects, or they might not be getting enough good food to stay strong. Aloso, tiny insects called mites feed on bees. "Any or all of these things could be weakening the honey bees," explains Pettis, "and then a virus or bacteria could be doing the killing." Pettis is hoping for a solution, because bees are so important. "Here's a good example of what pollinators like bees give us," he says. "You can eat plain oatmeal every day and get by, and oats are pollinated by the wind. But if you want to add some blueberries or strawberries or nuts to your daily oatmeal, those are the things you have to thank pollinators for. Bees are worth protecting because their work adds so much to our diet."
