Resentment towards Carefree Successors: The Bitterness of Aging
- As we age and remain dissatisfied, some of us may also feel resentment towards the younger generation for their carefree attitude and enjoyment of experiences we never had.
- The feeling of resentment towards the adolescents around us, as enviable successors who seem to effortlessly enjoy what we never had, may arise among those who are old and unsatisfied.
- There are individuals who, as they grow older and find themselves discontented, may feel bitterness towards the younger generation for their seemingly carefree nature and ability to appreciate things without deeper contemplation.

素人ですが回答をしてみます。 some of us also resent the adolescents about us as the enviably uncaring successors enjoying what we never had. about は around（前置詞）と同じような意味（～の周りに、近辺に）で、 the adolescents about us は「私達の周りの若者たち」。 また、resent ですが、 resent O as ～ という用法があるのではないでしょうか。
お礼

Reality contradicts the positive stereotypes so often that they cannot be accepted as the norms of old age. However, the positive stereotypes are actualized in enough elderly persons to warn us against acceptance of the analogous negative stereotypes. Rather than stereotypes, we need the facts about aging. お願いします。

In old age, in contrast, the usual cause of losing a spouse is death, and the death is likely to be gradual in onset. Consequently, in principle an old person should have time to prepare for the crisis of losing a spouse, who has become ill. In practice, it turns out that the warning signs are seldom heeded; after all, as pointed out earlier, we are not given the kinds of training-socialization-that would prepare us to meet normal life crises. Consequently, loss of a spouse in old age may be as psychologically sudden in onset as in early adulthood, in effect. お願いします。

以下の英文の和訳をお願いします。 So, you see, the Earth is extremely, unbelievably old compared to us humans with a fossil record hiding incredible stories to tell us about the past and possibly the future as well. But in the short time we've been here, we' ve learned so much and will surely learn more over the next decades and centuries, near moments in geological time.

お世話になります。 iPhoneアプリ（奇跡の音～UnitedBooks）に記載されていた英文の構造がわかりません。 英訳と和訳は下記の通りでした。 We are interested in learning about local traditions and beliefs like this , as you can see we are excited about learning as much as possible about your culture. 私たちはこのような伝統や信仰について学ぶことに興味を持っていて、あなた方の文化をたくさん知ることを楽しみにしているんです。 カンマの前までは理解できるのですが、それ以降（ , as you can see ～ ）が理解できません。 , as you can see （ご存知のように） / we are excited about learning （私たちが学びたいと強く思っていることについて） / as much as possible （可能な限り） / about your culture （あなた方の文化について）. →どうも、しっくりこない訳になってしまいます。 私の区切り方や、訳が悪いのかもしれません。 ご指導ください。

Perhaps the most disturbing thing about the empty nest, however, is that it is a sign that youth has gone. This sign, together with the evidence confronted in the mirror and the menopause, which occurs at about the same time as the empty nest, make the loss of youth impossible to deny. Given the worship of youthfulness in our society, especially youthfulness in woman, the effect is a real crisis. Of little comfort to the present generation, the declining birth rate and increasing longevity have combined to increase the average age of Americans to 29 years. If the trends continue, our ideal may also mature. お願いします。

以下に英文（大幅に省略しているので文章の繋がりは読めないです、スミマセン)と、それに対する疑問点を書かせていただきます。よろしくお願いいたします。 It is a beneficial thought that we were once children.(省略) We try to behave not as we want to behave, nor even as we think we ought to behave, but as we think others expect us to behave. So we enter into a world of pretence and deception, deceiving others and perhaps ourselves as well, and being deceived by them in turn. So we are placed under a continual strain.(省略) After all, it isn't so easy to act the part of someone else, according to what we imagine others may be expecting of us, especially when that expectation may change from day to day. As for all this strain, I hardly need add how harmful it must be to our health. (省略) Pretending we are still children is just as bad as pretending we are other adults than ourselves.(省略) All pretence is positeively harmful, if only by putting us under a strain and so impairing our health. At the same time, we must recognize there's still something of the child left in us. We never grow up in such a way as to leave the past entirely behind us. What we were, in a deep sense, we still are: and it is important for our health and peace of mind to admit the fact. 2(5)文目で"we think(imagine)"という挿入がなされている所が上手く訳出できませんでした。3文目の"in turn"は「騙し、その次には騙される」という感じで訳したのですがどうでしょうか？10文目で"such a way as to～"に関してこれは"so as to～"的に訳せばいいのでしょうか？11文目は":"の前の部分の構造がまったくわかりませんでした。

下の英文の、おかしな文やアドバイスなどがあれば教えてください。 Second I will state about the study. Now children have to go to school in nine year. We can learn and study that we need things for live. But we can learn not only school but also television and movies. We have education channel for children. Children can learn by watch it. For example, words, vocabulary. But television and movies have more. Movie teaches us important things in story. For example, dream come true and friend. School teacher don’t teach us about it. We learn a lot of things watch television I like watch television about famous people’s success process. And we can learn culture other countries. So I think that television and movies teach us a lot of things. よろしくお願いします。
