『The sound of summer ～』1

Ray Bradburyの『The sound of summer running』という短編からの質問です。 “Dad!” He blurted it out. “Back there in that window, those Cream-Sponge Para Litefoot Shoes . . .” His father didn’t even turn. “Suppose you tell me why you need a new pair of sneakers. Can you do that?” “Well . . .” It was because they felt the way it feels every summer when you take off your shoes for the first time and run in the grass. They felt like it feels sticking your feet out of the hot covers in wintertime to let the cold wind from the open window blow on them suddenly and you let them stay out a long time until you pull them back in under the covers again to feel them, like packed snow. The tennis shoes felt like it always feels the first time every year wading in the slow waters of the creek and seeing your feet below, half an inch further downstream, with refraction, than the real part of you above water. “Dad,” said Douglas, “it’s hard to explain.” ＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ It was because they felt the way it feels every summer when you take off your shoes for the first time and run in the grass.のところなのですが the wayは接続詞的な用法で「・・・のように」という意味ですか？ theyはa new pair of sneakersですか？a new pair of sneakersは単数扱いのような気もするのですが。 it feels every summer～のitは何を指しているのでしょうか？状況のitですか？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ They felt like it feels sticking your feet out of the hot covers in wintertime to let the cold wind from the open window blow on them suddenly についてですが sticking・・・・突き出している？ out of the hot covers in wintertime to let the cold wind from the open window blow on them suddenly・・・開いた窓から冷たい風が突然あなたの靴に吹きかけさせるために、冬の暖かいカバーから外へ？？ letは使役動詞だと思うのですが、言っていることがわかりません。＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊質問が多くなってしまったので投稿を2つに分けました。（後半部分の質問は『The sound of summer ～』2に続きます）教えていただけるとありがたいです。

『The sound of summer ～』

Ray Bradburyの『The sound of summer running』という短編からの質問です。 Well, he felt sorry for boys who lived in California where they wore tennis shoes all year and never knew what it was to get winter off your feet, peel off the iron leather shoes all full of snow and rain and run barefoot for a day and then lace on the first new tennis shoes of the season, which was better than barefoot. The magic was always in the new pair of shoes. The magic might die by the first of September, but now in late June there was still plenty of magic, and shoes like these could jump you over trees and rivers and houses. And if you wanted, they could jump you over fences and sidewalks and dogs. “Don’t you see?” said Douglas. “I just can’t use last year’s pair.” For last year’s pair were dead inside. They had been fine when he started them out, last year. But by the end of summer, every year, you always found out, you always knew, you couldn’t really jump over rivers and trees and houses in them, and they were dead. But this was a new year, and he felt that this time, with this new pair of shoes, he could do anything, anything at all. They walked up on the steps to their house. “Save your money,” said Dad. “In five or six weeks—” “Summer’ll be over!” ＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ they wore tennis shoes all year and never knew what it was to get winter off your feet, peel off the iron leather shoes all full of snow and rainについてですが it was to get winter off your feet～は、be動詞+to不定詞で、「あなたの足から冬を取り去ることになる」という予定の意味ですか？ all full of snow and rainが、文にどのようにつながるのかわかりません。前置詞がないような？それとも the iron leather shoesと all full of snow and rainの間で切れているのか・・？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ last year’s pair were dead inside.の個所について deadは「すたれた」の意味ですか？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊教えていただけるとありがたいです。よろしくお願いいたします。

You’re wrong. Third, to give it its full name, you want the Royal Crown Cream-Sponge Para Litefoot Tennis Shoes: ‘LIKE MENTHOL ON YOUR FEET!’ Fourth, you want credit.” “No!” cried Douglas, breathing hard, as if he’d run all night in his dreams. “I got something better than credit to offer!” he gasped. “Before I tell, Mr. Sanderson, you got to do me one small favor. Can you remember when was the last time you yourself wore a pair of Litefoot sneakers, sir?” Mr. Sanderson’s face darkened. “Oh, ten, twenty, say, thirty years ago.

Ray Bradburyの『The sound of summer running』という短編からの質問です。 Somehow the people who made tennis shoes knew what boys needed and wanted.They put marshmallows and coiled springs in the soles and they wove the rest out of grasses bleached and fired in the wilderness. Somewhere deep in the soft loam of the shoes the thin hard sinews of the buck deer were hidden. The people that made the shoes must have watched a lot of winds blow the trees and a lot of rivers going down to the lakes. Whatever it was, it was in the shoes, and it was summer. Douglas tried to get all this in words. “Yes,” said Father, “but what’s wrong with last year’s sneakers? Why can’t you dig them out of the closet?” ＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ They put marshmallows and coiled springs in the soles and they wove the rest out of grasses bleached and fired in the wilderness. Somewhere deep in the soft loam of the shoes the thin hard sinews of the buck deer were hidden.についてですがここはとても比喩的な表現になっている気がします。以下はどのような事を言っているのでしょうか？＊They put marshmallows and coiled springs in the soles 　　マシュマロとぐるぐるに巻かれたバネを底に置きました？　　（靴の履き心地ですか？）＊they wove the rest out of grasses bleached and fired in the wilderness 　　　　荒野で焼かれ、さらされた草からの残りを織りました？　　（意味がわかりません）　　＊Somewhere deep in the soft loam of the shoes the thin hard sinews of the buck deer were hidden 　　靴の柔らかい壌土の中のどこかに深く、雄の鹿の細く硬い腱は隠されました？　　（雄の鹿というのは少年のことだと思うのですが、be hiddenは"秘められている" 　　というような感じでしょうか？）冒頭のTheyはthe people who made tennis shoesですか？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ Whatever it was, it was in the shoes, and it was summer.についてこのitは特に意味を持たないitですか？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊教えていただけるとありがたいです。よろしくお願いいたします。

Ray Bradburyの『The sound of summer running』という短編からの質問です。 Lights out, with Tom asleep, Douglas lay watching his feet, far away down there at the end of the bed in the moonlight, free of the heavy iron shoes, the big chunks of winter fallen away from them. “Reasons. I’ve got to think of reasons for the shoes.” Well, as anyone knew, the hills around town were wild with friends putting cows to riot, playing barometer to the atmospheric changes, taking sun, peeling like alendars each day to take more sun. To catch those friends, you must run much faster than foxes or squirrels. As for the town, it streamed with enemies grown irritable with heat, so remembering every winter argument and insult. Find friends, ditch enemies! That was the Cream-Sponge Para Litefoot motto. Does the world run too fast? Want to be alert, stay alert? Litefoot, then! Litefoot! He held his coin bank up and heard the faint small tinkling, the airy weight of money there. Whatever you want, he thought, you got to make your own way. During the night now, let’s find that path through the forest. . . . Downtown, the store lights went out, one by one. A wind blew in the window. It was like a river going downstream and his feet wanting to go with it. In his dreams he heard a rabbit running running running in the deep warm grass. ＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ the hills around town were wild with friends putting cows to riot, playing barometer to the atmospheric changes, taking sun, peeling like calendars each day to take more sun.についてですが、どういうことを言っているのでしょう？？ friends putting cows to riot「牛たちを大混乱にする友達」？ playing barometer to the atmospheric changes？？ taking sun「日光浴をする」？ peeling like calendars each day to take more sun「もっと日光浴するために日ごとカレンダーのようにめくりながら」？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ As for the town, it streamed with enemies grown irritable with heat, so remembering every winter argument and insult.の個所ですが itはthe townのことだと思うのですが、 streamed with enemies grown irritable with heat「熱でいらいらをつのらせた敵であふれ」？ so remembering every winter argument and insult「それなので冬ごとの議論と無礼な行為を思い出す」？？（soはそれなので、という意味ですか？）＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ Find friends, ditch enemies! Want to be alert, stay alert? これはどんなことを言っているのでしょうか？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ Whatever you want, he thought, you got to make your own way.についてここはなぜyouとheが入った文になっているのでしょうか？（heはこの物語の主人公の Douglasだと思うのですが）＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊英文の言っていることをイメージするのが難しいです。長くなってしまってすみません。教えていただけるとありがたいです。よろしくお願いいたします。

Ray Bradburyの『The sound of summer running』という短編からの質問です。 A few people drifted by on the sidewalk outside, in the hot sun. Still the man and boy stood there, the boy glowing, the man with revelation in his face. “Boy,” said the old man at last, “in five years, how would you like a job selling shoes in this emporium?” “Gosh, thanks, Mr. Sanderson, but I don’t know what I’m going to be yet.” “Anything you want to be, son,” said the old man, “you’ll be. No one will ever stop you.” The old man walked lightly across the store to the wall of ten thousand boxes, came back with some shoes for the boy, and wrote up a list on some paper while the boy was lacing the shoes on his feet and then standing there, waiting. The old man held out his list. “A dozen things you got to do for me this afternoon. Finish them, we’re even Stephen, and you’re fired.” ☆Mr. Sanderson（the old man)というのは、靴を売っているお店の主人です。＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ Still the man and boy stood thereについて boyに定冠詞がついていないのはどうしてでしょうか？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ but I don’t know what I’m going to be yet.について "でも僕は何になるのかまだわかりません”と言っているのでしょうか？ to beは「～になる」、という意味ですか？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ “A dozen things you got to do for me this afternoon. Finish them, we’re even Stephen, and you’re fired.” のセリフについて we’re even Stephenの意味がわからないのですが、you’re firedは「きみは解雇だよ」ということですか？つまり、その日の午後だけお店を手伝ってくれればそれでいいよ、ということですか？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊教えてください。よろしくお願いします。

It’s this: I give you my money, you give me the shoes, I owe you a dollar. But, Mr.Sanderson, but—soon as I get those shoes on, you know what happens?” “What?” “Bang!

Ray Bradburyの『The sound of summer running』という短編からの質問です。 Late that night, going home from the show with his mother and father and his brother Tom, Douglas saw the tennis shoes in the bright store window. He glanced quickly away, but his ankles were seized, his feet suspended, then rushed. The earth spun; the shop awnings slammed their canvas wings overhead with the thrust of his body running. His mother and father and brother walked quietly on both sides of him. Douglas walked backward, watching the tennis shoes in the midnight window left behind. “It was a nice movie,” said Mother. Douglas murmured, “It was. . . .” ～but his ankles were seized, his feet suspended, then rushed. The earth spun；のところなのですが、 The earth spun(地球、地上？は回った？）とはどういうことなのでしょうか？ the shop awnings slammed their canvas wings overhead with the thrust of his body running.についてですが、うまく状況が頭に思い浮かべられません。お店の日よけが閉められた（閉った）、という感じはなんとなくわかるのですが overhead with the thrust of his body runningのところがわかりません。駆けてきた少年の体の突き(前進）で？頭上で？教えてください。よろしくお願いいたします。

A minute later, seated panting quietly, he laced the tennis shoes to his long narrow feet. They looked detached and alien down there next to the dark cuffs of his business suit. Mr. Sanderson stood up. “How do they feel?” asked the boy. “How do they feel, he asks; they feel fine.” He started to sit down. ☆Mr. Sandersonというのは、靴を売っているお店の主人です。＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ Mr. Sanderson backed off a little distance from the boy’s fever, one hand to his chin.の個所についてここはサンダーソンさんが少年の靴にかける情熱から少し引いた気持ちを持った、ということでしょうか？ one hand to his chinは、サンダーソンさんが自分の顎に手をやった、という状況ですか？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ “How do they feel, he asks; they feel fine.”についてこれは、サンダーソンさんのセリフになっていると思うのですが、途中「;」が入っている意味がよくわかりません。＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊教えていただけると助かります。よろしくお願いいたします。

Ray Bradburyの『The sound of summer running』という短編からの質問です。 Mr. Sanderson stood amazed with the rush of words. When the words got going the flow carried him; he began to sink deep in the shoes, to flex his toes, limber his arches, test his ankles. He rocked softly, secretly, back and forth in a small breeze from the open door. The tennis shoes silently hushed themselves deep in the carpet, sank as in a jungle grass, in loam and resilient clay. He gave one solemn bounce of his heels in the yeasty dough, in the yielding and welcoming earth. Emotions hurried over his face as if many colored lights had been switched on and off. His mouth hung slightly open. Slowly he gentled and rocked himself to a halt, and the boy's voice faded and they stood there looking at each other in a tremendous and natural silence. ☆Mr. Sandersonというのは、靴を売っているお店の主人です。＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊全体的に比喩的な表現が多いと思うのですが、特に He gave one solemn bounce of his heels in the yeasty dough, in the yielding and welcoming earth.の個所の in the yielding and welcoming earthの部分がわかりません。 earthは地面だと思うのですが、 the yielding and welcoming earthというのはどういう意味なのでしょうか？＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊教えてください。お願いいたします。

The next, Douglas Spaulding stood clumsily there, staring down at his leather shoes as if these heavy things could not be pulled up out of the cement. The thunder had stopped when his shoes stopped. Now, with painful slowness, daring to look only at the money in his cupped hand, Douglas moved out of the bright sunlight of Saturday noon.

Almost immediately he vanished. He just spun about with a whisper and went off. The door stood empty. The sound of the tennis shoes faded in the jungle heat. Mr. Sanderson stood in the sun-blazed door, listening. From a long time ago, when he dreamed as a boy, he remembered the sound. Beautiful creatures leaping under the sky, gone through brush, under trees, away, and only the soft echo their running left behind. “Antelopes,” said Mr. Sanderson. “Gazelles.” He bent to pick up the boy’s abandoned winter shoes, heavy with forgotten rains and long-melted snows.

But, before selecting these shoes, you need to consider on the material of the shoes. Generally, pure leather or patent leather shoes look glamorous and stunning. But, men generally detest the idea of moving around at malls and comparing the products for a perfect pair of shoes. For them, online shopping comes as a great relief. These days with the popular option of online shoes shopping, you also need to be careful about the size of your feet. Again, when you are going for different brands, you should also be aware that different footwear companies have different standards of measurement. So, it is preferable if you take prior measurement and stick to a single brand. Again, since online stores does not give the chance of trial. So, you should understand the terms and conditions of the company. So, take care of the few important guidelines and go for online shoes shopping.

以下の英文を翻訳していただけるかたに、お願いできますでしょうか？誤植があるかもしれませんが、意訳でもかまいませんし、そのまま訳していただいてもいいです。なにとぞよろしくお願いします。 You each feel the other has a kind of perfection, fills a gap that nothing else can, as tough the cracks in your life are cemented and hell together, and the life made bearable, because of this escape. so you wear the relationship like a beautiful but insubstantial cloth that buffers you and protects you from life's harshness. The relationship is set a few degrees away from the harder emptier world, like a cloth of dreams that makes everything better. This permits you to worship from afar., from memories, from promises, from potentials. But in the end if nothing is made solid, you experience disillusionment and disappointment. Neptune is like water in which you can see beautiful images, reflections of love, it can ease your thirst, clean your wounds, but like water it can drain away and leave no trace, nothing. The to end the dream, is to see the other person, and the situation as they are, however flawed or hopeless it may all be, and not as you'd like them to be For so long as you look at them as you'd like them to be the dream exists. But it crumbles gets harder in the cold light of reality and in the effort of making it work and making it real.
