They were waiting for the gate of the shop to open. 店が開くのを待っていた。という意味のようなのですが、最後のto openの使い方がわかりません。 From that days on, その日からという意味のようですが、このonはどのような考えから出てくるのでしょうか。 どちらかだけでも結構ですのでよろしくお願いします。

to open これは不定詞の名詞的用法で「～すること」 その前に名詞や代名詞を置くことによって ～の動作をする人や物を指定できます。 つまり「そのお店の門が開くことを」待っていた と、つながっていきます。 from that day on on の副詞の意味の中に 「ずっと」「継続して」などの意味があります。 それを利用した慣用表現だと思います。 go on とか keep on ～ ing とかも仲間です。

What kind of fast food would you like to eat for lunch? Hamburgers? Fried chicken? Some of you may think of instant noodles. Instant noodles made in Japan are exported to over fifty countries and areas around the world － many of them in Asia. Do you know the history of this world-famous fast food born in Japan? In the early years following World War II, Ando Momofuku saw people forming long lines in front of noodle stands. They had to stand waiting in line for a long time. Ando wanted to make noodles that would be easy to cook and also keep for a long time. He hit upon the idea of deep-frying noodles after watching his wife cook tempura for dinner. Through trial and error, he succeeded in making instant noodles. This was a product of noodles that had been seasoned, deep-fried, and the dried. In 1958 the world’s first instant noodles went on sale in Japan. Because they could be prepared in just a few minutes, by putting them in a bowl and poruring hot water over them, they were called “magic noodles” and quickly became a hit. They had to stand waiting in line for a long time.について （１）次の文を日本語に直しなさい。A black dog came runnning toward us.

''It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." The Victorian age was one of soaring ambition, technological wonder, and awesome grandeur, as well as ugliness, and misery on an unprecended scale. The Victorians knew life was changing faster than ever before, and they recorded that change in paintings that were the cinema of their day. These paintings aren't fashionable, and they don't generally change hands for millions of pounds in auction rooms, but to me they're a gold mine, they show us like nothing else what it was like to live in those incredible times, and they tell amazing stories. The most dramatic story of the age was the explosion of giant cities. To our Victorian forefathers they were a terrific shock. When Queen Victoria came to the throne, people were at best uneasy at, and at worst utterly terrified by these vast gatherings of humanity. Nothing like them had existed before. But by the time she died, the men and women of the age had pioneered an entirely new way of living: they had invented the modern city. At the dawn of the 19th century, Britain was on the move. Rumours had reached even the remotest villages and hamlets of incredible developments just over the horizon. Towns bigger than anyone could imagine, astouding new machines, and money to be made for those ready to take the risk. My own great-great-great-grandfather was in that tide of humanity that left the land in search of a better life. He, his wife and four of their children travelled to the industrial north by barge. They didn't really know what they'd find here, but they did know what they were leaving behind, and whatever they were to find here, it was better than begging for handouts or going hungry.

- 英語でいくつか質問があります。
英語でいくつか質問があります。 解答がないので、自分の解釈が全然違うところもあるとおもいますが、お願いします。 It seems likely that mutually unintelligible forms of English will increasingly develop as the language is taught and learned in various parts of the world which are isolated from contact with first-language speakers. 「互いに理解できない英語がますます英語として発達していること」が教えられ、学ばれている と解釈してしまったのですが、何かおかしいと思いました・・・。 It is said that the ancient Hindus were the first to believe that when thirteen persons sat together it was unlucky. 最後の「when thirteen persons sat together it was unlucky」の意味がわかりません。 One evening there came to the store a man who had been well-educated, but whose love for drink had brought him to poverty. 「whose」の役割が分かりません。 She was so shy that for a long time I hesitated to tell her what I felt for her. 「what」の意味に確信がもてませんでした。 「何を」と訳すwhatなのか、関係代名詞で「～こと」と訳すwhatなのかが分かりません。見分け方を教えてください。 Cellular phones enable you to make more productive use of your time. 「make」の用法が分かりません。どういう意味でつかわれているんですか？ There were only two ways in which people could keep great happenings from being forgotten. 代替の意味は分かるんですが、細かく見ると分からなくなります。 S prevent O from doingの構文なんですが、preventがkeepに変わったのはいいんですが、「could」が入る理由が分かりません。 couldがなければ、「人々によってすばらしい出来事が忘れられない方法はたった2つしかなかった」となると思ったのですが、あっていますか？そして、ここにcouldが入るとどういう意味が加わるのでしょうか? 質問が多いんですが、よろしくお願いします。

It took many centuries before people worked out accurate units of measurements and weights . The first ones were rough and available. People used as measures the human hand , the human foot, or the distance that a person could travel in a single day's journey . As civilization progressed, technological and commercial requirements led to increased standardization. For example, the length of the human foot varies from individual to individual. Therefore it probably became necessary to choose a particular individual (for example , the king ) . And then they reproduced standards based on this commonly accepted unit of length.
