toko0503さん、こんばんは。 >Many people dislike the notion of babies "managing " adults,fearing that they will become spoiled. >多くの人々は赤ん坊が大人をあやつる意図を好まない ここでいう、notion とは、考えとか、概念といった意味だと思います。 多くの人は、赤ちゃんが大人を「支配する(思い通りに動かす)」という概念は好まない。そうすることによって、赤ちゃんが(甘やかされて)だめになるのを恐れているからである。 ということだと思います。親は誰でも、赤ちゃんが泣くと気になりますが、泣いたからといって、すぐにおっぱい、おしめ、だっことハイ、ハイと行動していては、赤ちゃんを甘やかすことにならないのだろうか・・??と心配するので、赤ちゃんが大人を意図的に支配している、という考え方は好まれないのでしょう。 >But it is only by being allowed, even helped,to find reliable ways of controlling some aspects of adult behavior that a baby can build vital competence and confidence in her own powers of communication. >しかし、コミュニケーションするための自分自身の力の中で、生命力や自信を構築できるような大人の行動のいくつかの面をコントロールできる確実な方法を見つけるためにはそれも可能だし、助けにさえなってもらえる。」 この文章は長いですね・・分かりにくいので、細切れで考えていきたいと思います。 by being allowed,even helped 許されること、あるいは助けられること、による find reliable ways of controlling some aspects of adult behavior 大人の行動の、いくつかの側面を、コントロールする確かな方法を見つけること a baby can built vital competence and confidence 赤ちゃんが組み立てることのできる、生命的な能力、そして自信 in her own powers of communication 彼女(赤ちゃん)自身できるだけのコミュニケーションにおいて 大まかな構造は、 But it is only~~to find reliable ways~~that baby can built~~. のような感じだと思います。 つまり、 赤ちゃんは赤ちゃん自身できるコミュニケーションによってその生命的な能力、そして自身を組み立てことができる。しかしそれは、大人の行動のある側面をコントロールすることを、許される、あるいは助けてもらえることによってのみ、なのである。 難しいですね~・・縮めていえば、赤ちゃんは大人をコントロールすることなくして、生きていくことはできないだろう、という感じでしょうか。 赤ちゃんが生きていくことにおいて、大人の行動をコントロールすることは、必要不可欠である、みたいな感じの意味の文章だと思います。 ちょっと後半、長ったらしいですが、大体の感じだけつかめればいいと思います。頑張ってください。

    The chief attraction slang has for people is novelty. It is fun to hear an idea phrased in a new, unusual way. But after hundreds of repetitions, the novelty wears off: the slang loses freshness and sparkle. The history of most slang expressions is that die an early death. (A)That is one reason why slang is often ineffective in speach and inappropriate in writing that is meant to last for some time. Then, too, a great many siang expressions are so general that they hardly have any meaning at all beyond a vague indication of approval or disapproval. Using such words adds no more to your speech or writing than dose calling everything you like "wonderful" and everything you dislike "awful". Words like "dreamy" and "crummy'' are slang of this kind and add little to style or meaning. Slang should be used with caution. A safe prescription is this: in conversation with friends, use it, but in small doses. Use it even less frequently in informal writing, making sure that what you use is appropriate to the subject and will not annoy readers. Never use it in formal speech or writing. If you read a great deal and listen with interest to the speech of people who use language well, you will gradually develop a reliable judgment about the appropriateness of slang. Then, when you feel sure a slang expression is effective, you will probably be right. (A)thatが何を指しているのかもお願いします。

    Since parents control who sleeps where, it is their everyday beliefs that dectde sleeping arrangements. In those cultures in which the prime parental goal s to integrate children into the family, the household, and society, babies are close at hand, even during the night. It is primarily in those societies (mostly in the industrialized West, especially in the United States) where a premium is placed on independence and self-reliance that babies and children sleep alone. Underlying this unconscious societal even more damental assumption made by Americans and some other groups- how we that children from day one has a major effect on how they turn out as adults. This philosophy is not shared by all cultures. The Mayans; for example, see mother and infant as one until that cannot be separated, and believe offspring are not ready for guidance until they can speak and reason, when they are older children. Newborns in their culture are not capable of being trained, and, they feel, should just be cared for. Sleep, in other words, can take nuance. And the basis for that morality is, of course, culturally constructed. American parents believe it is morally "correct" for infants to sleep alone and thus learn alertness ). They view child-parent co-sleeping as strange, psychologically unhealthy, and even sinful. Those in co-sleeping cultures see the Western practice of placing an infant alone as wrong and a form of child neglect or parental irresponsibility. Parents in both kinds of cultures are convinced that their moral structure is "correct" .
