勉強に使っているサイトのトランスクリプトにつぎのような文が載っていました。 途中まではこう訳しました「もうすぐ発売されるのJohn Avlonの著書で彼は無党派層は本来すべてが同じではなく、多くは？？？」 ここまでしかわかりませんでした。それ以降の文は部分的にわかっても、大意さえもつかめませんでした。特に ; simple yet bedeviling ideas for both parties which constantly play to their conservative and liberal bases. のセミコロン以下の文はわかりません。 どう解釈するのでしょうか？ In his upcoming book, John Avlon argues that independents by their nature are not all the same, but many want limited spending, generous social policies and, most of all, government that listens to them; simple yet bedeviling ideas for both parties which constantly play to their conservative and liberal bases.

下記英文の第二段落にありますwhichについてお教えください。 【英文】 Norris, Weston and Brereton, though urged to confess, stoutly maintained their innocence. Henry had been very attached to Norris, and he sent word to him that if he would confess to adultery with me, he would be granted his life. Norris's reply was that he would rather die a thousand deaths than accuse the Queen of that which he believed, in his conscience, she was innocent. 【背景】 Norris, Weston and Breretonの三人は、Henry（王様）の妻である「私」と不義密通を行ったとして、拷問された経緯があります。ただし、NorrisはHenryのお気に入りです。 【質問】 第二段落にあるwhichがよくわかりません。関係代名詞かな？と思ったのですが、先行詞がどれなのか見当がつきません。the Queenかと思ったのですが（人を表す名詞が先行詞で、それが関係詞節の補語を表す場合、whoじゃなくwhichだと聞いたことがあったので）、そもそもwhich以下が完全な文です。それなら（完全な文なら）whichの前に前置詞がないか探すとof that whichとなっています。。。 大変お手数かけますが、このwhichが何なのかお教えいただけないでしょうか。どうぞよろしくお願いいたします。

和訳お願いします！ But had these childhood sexual experiences really happened? Freud initially believed they had, and in 1896 went on record that the basis of female hysteria was actual, or attempted, incest by fathers of their daughters at the age of three or four. Such a conclusion was bound to shock and was embarrassing to Freud himself since many of his patients were daughters of family friends. As cases accumulated, the thesis seemed more and more preposterous and outrageous. Could thirty percent of Viennese par really be seducing, their children?

I am 34, with a Ph.D. and a successful, happy life. I am regularly mistaken for being much younger—often a college student. (I live in a city with many colleges, which probably doesn’t help.) Though I’ll be “thankful for this someday,” according to many well-meaning but semi-irritating strangers, I have struggled for years to think of an appropriate response to people’s surprise upon learning my actual age. uponはどのような意味でしょうか？onと置き換えられるのでしょうか？よろしくお願いします

Or perhaps we should say rather that the dichotomy between primitive and revealed religions is false, for there is a sense in which all religious are religions of revelation; the world around them and their reason have everywhere revealed to people something of the divine, of their own nature and destiny.

お願いします。 (18) Abydos wasn't the only sacred site. There were many others throughout Egypt. Some temples were mortuary temples for dead kings, and others were built to honor a particular god. Some, like Abydos, were both. Abydos honored Osiris, and because Osiris was the King of the Dead, it also became an important burial ground. (19) For Egyptians, the stories about the gods were comforting and provided guidance in a world that was unpredictable and governed by forces they didn't understand. Horus watched over them in this life. Osiris watched over them in death. When their world was in turmoil, they believed it was Seth fighting with Horus that created the chaos. When all was well, they were sure that Horus had won the battle. They believed that one day Horus would defeat Seth in a smashing final combat. Then Osiris would be able to return to the world of the living and all sorrow would end. Until then, it was a god-eat-god world.

それぞれ異なる話題についての英文です。どちらも文としてはあまり難しくは無いと思うのですが、話題の内容が上手く掴めませんでした。どちらかと言うと後半の英文です。お願いします。 People in mind climates in the northern hemisphere sometimes experience periods of very hot and humid weather. These periods, which occur in July, August, and early September, are called “dog days” in English. This expression comes from Latin, the language used by the ancient Romans. They believed that Sirius, the Dog Star, which rises with the sun during this time, added its heat to the sun's and caused the hot weather. All modern scientists believe that there is an older to the universe. But the ancient Sumerians, who lived in what is today Iraq, didn't believe in an ordered universe. They believed the universe was ruled by dogs, who did whatever they wanted to do without any reason. The Sumerians probably believed this because unpredictable natural changes occurred in their land, such as floods, that they couldn't control.
