Are Gauze Masks, Gargling, and Hand Washing as Helpful as the Flu Vaccine?

wind-sky-windの回答

回答No.2

形容詞(あるいは副詞、無冠詞の名詞)+ as SV(形容詞の場合、主に be 動詞)で 「S は V するけれども(だけれども)」という譲歩の意味になります。 昔から学校文法では有名な事項ですが、文語ということもあって年々重要性は低くなっています。 かたい文章では用いられますので、ここでもたびたび質問になっています。 そして、アメリカではこの "形容詞 as" が "as 形容詞 as" になることがあるようです。 というのも、as にこのような「...だけれども」という意味があるはずがなく、 もともと分詞構文によってこの意味が出ていたものです。 普通に that 以下を書けば though the old standbys of gauze masks, gargling and hand washing may be helpful, they are not the panaceas that some assume のように though を用います。

    So today, to have learned English means to have your own rights as one of the users of the language. And it is just as likely that the future course of English will be influenced by second or foreign language speakers of English as by native speakers. Language learners will be facing these World Englishes, and they will develop a sense of international standards of English ―as well as their national norms of English, which are currently the focus of learning. It may not be many years, however, before an international standard becomes the starting-point for every learner of English, with British, American, and other varieties all seen as optional versions of English. 【questions】 What does “to have learned English” mean? What will learners of English develop when they face World Englishes? 二問ありますがおねがいします!

  • 文法と代名詞の指すものが分からない

    Most children do not like to hear stories about when they were younger. Infancy is not a blessed state to them, but something to be grown out of and escaped from as quickly as possible. To them, their littleness, helplessness, and clumsiness is not cute, but humiliating, and they want to be reminded of it as little as possible. They don't mind, once in a while, if we don’t overdo it, our telling them that they were very nice when they were little, but that is about as much about it as they want to hear. Whatever mistakes they have made, in their growing and learning, are best forgotten. 上の文章の that is about as much about it as they want to hear. が訳せません、 自分なりに考えた訳ですが、 「それ(that=They don't mind our telling them=彼らに対し我々が彼に言うのを嫌がること)はほぼ同程度の子どものころについての(about it)量である、 その同程度とは彼らが聞きたいと思う程度である」 となり、日本語の体をなしておりません。 文法も代名詞が何を指しているかもさっぱり分かりません、 お分かりになれば教えてください。

    以下の文の翻訳をお願いしたいです。 とても困っています。よろしくお願いします。 Dear.Mr.Tanaka Flu season will soon be here so it's time to get your annual flu shot. I recommend that ALL of my patients who are six months of age and older get the flu vaccine every year. We are now providing the flu shot to our patients. Please call our office [03-123-4567]to book your appointment. It takes about two weeks after the shot to develop protection against the flu so, it's important to get it at the start of flu season. Influenza is a contagious respiratory disease that can lead to serious complications, hospitalization, or even death. Young children - especially those under age five - are among those at highest risk of serious illness from the flu. Anyone can get the flu, and vaccination is the most effective way to protect you and your family. Why you and your family should get the flu shot: ・influenza affects everyone ・The flu vaccine protects you from getting the flu ・The flu vaccine is safe ・You have a child under 5 years old ・You are pregnant or considering pregnancy ・You - or someone you know - is over 65 or has a chronic (long-term) heath condition ・Getting the flu shot is part of a healthy lifestyle. As your health care practitioner, I strongly recommend for you to get the flu shot to protect you and the people you care for. If you have any questions about the flu shot, please book an appointment so we may discuss them. Please contact us for vaccine availability at our office. If you are unable to come to our office, you can get the flu shot at a public clinic or a local pharmacy. Please note, however, that pharmacists can only administer the flu shot in Ontario to children 5 years of age and older. For more information about the flu or the flu shot, visit the Ministry of Health and Long - Term Care's website at Ontario. ca/flu. Sincerely.

One reasen is that a lot of good imformation ,such as merits of volunteer are lacking. By this demerit, a lot of high school students to want to work as a volunteer may lose motivation. Another reasen is that the time to carry out a volunteer work is fixed. They can't conduct volunteer everyday because they are busy studying as a high school students . Therefore, I think what they can do to increase the number of volunteers is that they should change a cotents of the poster. if they can describe a vriety of merits of volunteer work and explain the students can be free to have a right to conduct volunteer work in poster , they will be able to increase the number of volunteers.
