タイプミスではないかと思うところが、最初のパラグラフに3カ所ありました。ご確認の上、補足に書き込んで下されば幸いです。 "I did a bit of tickling" delicate lettering and design for advertising blocks. tickling の意味が、とても難しいです。取材を受けた彼独特の生の表現を、著者がそのままにしているので、特殊な意味で使っているかもしれませんが、sticking なら、「貼付ける」という意味で、しっくりします。直訳では「くすぐる」としました。発展させれば、「ちくちくと触る」(毛羽立った衣服が肌にあたる感じ)、「ちまちまとする」くらいには、なるかもしれません。「喜ばせる」は辞書によると、「物」が主語になっているので、素直に使えませんでした。 He was obliged to gibe up work finally because of …. gibe という単語は実在しますが、ここは、give だと思います。 Then I just lay on my bed coughing my and coughing. and の直前の my は、必要ないと思うのですが、彼が咳き込みながら話している状態なら、繰り返そうとしたとも考えられますが……。 ーー直訳ーー 彼の人生のほとんどの期間、彼は商業デザイナーとして働いていた。広告街区のための繊細なレタリングとデザインを「わしは少しくすぐっていた。」 彼の60代の終わりに病気の長い時期を彼は経験した。彼が働くことができるようになった時、ボトル洗浄者として牛乳工場へ通った。72歳という年齢で、不健康で老弱が進んだため、彼はとうとう仕事を諦めなくてはならなかった。彼の妻の死以来、彼の社会的な活動は少なくなってしまった。長い間、彼は起き上がらず、週末に年金(の受け取り)と買い物以外、めったに出かけなかった。数マイル離れたところに住んでいる老弱な兄への彼の訪問さえ減少した。「去年は毎週火曜日の夜、11月にあの霧が出るまでは、わしは、わざわざ兄貴に会いに行ったものさ。それからは、咳き込んでばかりで、わしは床(とこ)に臥せるだけだった。昼も夜も咳き込んでは、私の(一生と呼ぶ)時がやってきたと思っていた。だけど、そう(=私の(一生と呼ぶ)時がやってきたん)じゃなかったよ。」 彼は子どもを持たなかったことを後悔した。特に娘を、その娘が、「わしが年老いた時に、わしのそばに寄り添ってくれるかもしれない。」 その上、彼はロンドンに住む甥や姪は持っていなかった。隣人たちは、めったに彼に会わなかった。お隣さんは、「口紅白粉(くちべにおしろい)おばさんって、わしは呼んでるのさ、(おばさんが)出かける時は、いつもね。」 反対側のお隣さんは、「深夜飛行便おばさん。彼女は今じゃ階段のところで急いでわしとすれ違う、他の人たちの何人かのように、わしがどんな様子なのかを尋ねることをしないで。わしが気にすることではない。だけど、彼女たち、昔は常に気にしてくれた。で、わしが退院してきて、まさに老弱のじいさんのように歩き回るから、老弱、そうだね、ーーー彼女たちが何かしなくてはと彼女たちが思うといけないから、わしがどんな様子かを彼女たちが尋ねることが好きではないんだと、わしは思うね。だけど、そこなんだ。ーーー人生って、そんなものですよね? 彼は全ての友人と連絡を取り合うことを失ってしまった。それに、老人クラブには、賛同しなかった。「彼らは、みんな老弱な年寄りの仲間同士だ。」 国の介護職員、医者、ケースワーカー、看護師への彼の意見は、時々、彼らが「何もおしえてくれない」ことや、「子どものように扱う」ことを除いて、好意的だった。彼は訪問介護の申し出を断り続けた。彼の拒絶の原因は、大体、プライバシー感覚、自宅を恥ずかしく思うこと、料金について誤解、そして、訪問してくる女性がどういう人かという疑念からのようだった。複数の医者や病院との連絡について、彼の記憶は、見事に鮮明で、彼の経験を詳細に彼は思い出すこともあった。「かわいこちゃん」のケースワーカーについて、新しい入れ歯について、彼は話した。「上半身の服は着ないんだ。その方が気持ちいいんだよ。」 そして、プライドを持って、彼の持つ、ひとつの完全な身体能力、視力について話をした。ほとんど彼が歩けなくなった場合でも、決して、医者に彼を尋ねてくれるように頼むことは彼には起こらなかった。つまり、その外科医のところへ苦痛の旅をすることを好んだ。 ====================== ーー意訳ーー 人生のほとんどを、彼は商業デザイナーとしてずっと働いていた。ビル壁の広告用に繊細なレタリングやデザインを「少しばかり(くすぐって)笑わせてたのさ。」 60代の終わりに長く患う時期があった。働くことができるようになって、ボトル洗浄の仕事で牛乳工場へ通った。齢(よわい)72歳にして、不健康で老弱が進んだため、とうとう仕事を諦めなくてはならなかった。妻の死以来、社会的な活動は少なくなってしまった。長い間、寝たきりで、週末に年金の受け取りと買い物、それ以外は、めったに出かけることもなかった。数マイル離れたところに住む老弱な兄を訪問することさえ少なくなった。「去年は毎週火曜日の夜、わざわざ兄貴に会いに行ったものさ。11月のあの霧が出るまでだったがね。それからは、咳き込んでばかりで、床(とこ)に臥せるだけだった。昼も夜も、咳き込んでは、いよいよお迎えかと思っていた。だけど、そうじゃなかったよ。」 子どもを作らなかったことを後悔した。特に、「年老いた時に、そばに寄り添ってくれるかもしれない」娘を。その上、ロンドンに住む甥や姪もいなかった。隣人たちも、めったに彼に会わなかった。お隣さんのことを、「口紅白粉(くちべにおしろい)おばさんって、わしは呼んでるのさ、おばさんが出かける時は、いつもね。」 反対側のお隣さんは、「深夜飛行便おばさん。今じゃ階段のところでわしとすれ違う時、そそくさと、別人のように、ご機嫌伺いもなしさ。わしは気にしていないよ。だけど、あの人たち、昔は常に気にしてくれた。で、わしが退院してきて、よぼよぼのじいさんよろしく徘徊するから、よぼよぼ、そうだね、ーーー思うに、あの人たちが、ご機嫌伺いしたくないのは、何かしなくてはと思う場合があるといけないからだね。だけど、そこなんだ。ーーー人生って、そんなものだよね? 全ての友人との音信も途絶えてしまった。それに、老人クラブには、うんと言わなかった。「あの人たちは、よぼよぼ老人のみんな仲良しさんさ。」 彼の意見では、国の介護職員、医者、ケースワーカー、看護師は、いい印象であったが、時々、彼らが「何もおしえてくれない」ことや、「子どものように扱う」ことを除いての話だ。彼は訪問介護の申し出を断り続けた。大体、プライバシー感覚が原因で、自宅を恥ずかしく思ったり、料金について誤解したり、訪問してくる女性がどういう人か疑念があったようだ。複数の医者や病院との連絡について、彼の記憶は、見事に鮮明で、身に起こったことを詳細に思い出すこともあった。彼が話してくれたのは、ケースワーカーの「かわいこちゃん」や新しい入れ歯についてだった。「上の入れ歯は付けないんだ。その方が気持ちいいんだよ。」 そして、誇らしげに、彼の持つ、ひとつの完全な身体能力、視力の話をした。ほとんど歩行が出来なくなった場合でも、決して、医者に往診を頼むことはなかった。その外科医の元へ苦痛の旅をすることを好んだ。 後編に続きます。

The man was Charles Dodgson, a professor of mathematics at Oxford University, and the pretty dark-haired girl was Alice Liddell, his friend's daughter. It was a very hot day and as he gently rowed the boat on the peace- ful river, his young companion began to get restless. "Tell me a story," she said, "with plenty of nonsense in it." So Dodgson began to invent a fantastic story to amuse his pretty young friend. "Alice was beginning to get very tired," he began, "sitting with nothing to do... Dodgson made Alice the central character of the story, and as he described her fantastic journey, little Alice Liddell listened atten- tively, smiled, laughed and cried. This was the beginning of a story that would captivate children throughout the world for the next hundred years. He called the story, "Alice's Adventures in Wonder land' and published it under the name of Lewis Carroll. In the winter of 1928, a little old lady entered Sotheby's, a fa mous auctioneer's in London. "Excuse me," she said, "I was told you accept manuscripts for auction. You see, I need some money, so I would like to sell thi old manuscript. "Yes, we do accept manuscripts," said the auctioneer, "but they have to be original and by famous authors. "This is an original manuscript, it was given to me many years ago by a friend of my family," replied the old lady, "I don't want to part with it, but I have to sell it." She handed him the manuscript. He opened it and read the hand- written inscription inside. "A Christmas gift to a dear child in memory of a Summer's day. The auctioneer stopped reading and looked up at the little old woman who was standing in front of him. Tears were rolling down her cheeks. You... you are Alice," he said slowly. "Yes," replied the old lady, "I am Alice." The manuscript was sold to an American collector for $77,000, and Alice lived comfortably until her death.

A terrible task, an awesome task, taking many hours to complete and the chart itself was drawn up by hand using mathematical instruments. When I began to study astrology I learned and used the old tables of houses and planets, the pen and compass and the old authentic methods. I wanted to know astrology thoroughly. To me it was like and old and neglected building, I wanted to restore it to its former glory. The chart was like deciphering an ancient book of signs and symbols and translating them for you into language you can understand. From these symbols I can draw up a distinct picture of the future love of your life.

    Margie even wrote about it that night in her diary. On the page headed May 17, 2155, she wrote, 'Today Tommy found a real book." It was a very old book. Margie's grandfather had heard about books like it when he was a little boy. He once said his grandfather had told them that there was a time when all stories were printed on paper. They turned the pages, which were yellow. It was very funny to read the words. They stood still, instead of moving the way they were supposed to - on a screen, you know. And then, when they turned back to the page before, it had the same words on it. It was just the same as it had been when they read it the first time.

A short way along the Damascus-Medina railway there is a town called Deraa.In the First World War it was an important railway junction,a place where two main lines met.If Lawrence and the Arabs could blow up the track there,it would be a major setback for the Turks.But was this possible?There were a lot of Turkish soldiers in Deraa,and because it was the local capital the Bey(goverment) lived there too.The Bey of Deraa was a tall,heavy man with a thick black mustache.We know from a diary he kept during the war that he had heard of Lawrence and that he had heard of Lawrence and that he had made up his mind to try to capture him.Lawrence believed that the only way to learn for certain whether it was possible to attack Deraa was to go there on a spying mission and see for himself.So he dressed in ordinary Arab clothes and asked an old Arab to go with him.He hoped that the Turks would think that he and the old man were just a son and his father who had come to town to buy something.Forawhile everything went well.No one paid any attention to two Arabs,walking barefoot,their cheap clothes stained by the rain and mud.They went and looked at the railway station,pretending to check the trains.They walked outside the fence,but took careful note of its stores,barbed-wire defenses,and trenches. 入院していたころの範囲です。 ノートも次の授業の関係で借りることができませんでした・・・。 よろしくお願いします。

    There was a line of like 30 people for the men's room and a 5 year old who clearly was about to pee his pants. Mom was insisting he come to the ladies room with her but he wasn't having it. I said "want me to walk him in?" And I took him by the shoulder and started shoving through and he says "I really have to go!" So I picked him up by the armpits and yelled "coming through" and these 30 drunken hockey fans parted like the red Sea. By the time I got to the urinal the kid already had his dick out and was immediately peeing. I had no idea what to do at this point so I just held him there until he was done and shook him up and down when he finished. He lifted his pants, I swung him over to the sink, then set him down and we walked out. shook him up and downとswung him over to the sink, then set him downの意味を教えてください。よろしくお願いします
