In your head is the key. And I know in that moment that Jamie has already understood me better than my parents and everyone else ever have. I meet his eyes with a surge of gratitude pushing up inside me. I want to say something, but I can’t imagine what.(前回の終わりの部分です） ‘Hey,’ he says. ‘I know.’ His eyes are suddenly bright with inspiration. ‘Ask if I can come over to your house this weekend. To stay, I mean. There’s an annual in one of the boxes with whole stories in it – fourteen episodes, one after the other, so you don’t have to wait a week or find the next issue. I could read it to you, if you want.’ He says this last almost shyly, as if he’s afraid I might say no. ‘That would be great!’ I say. ‘I really like them.’ ‘Yeah,’ he says. ‘Me too.’ Downstairs I hear the sounds of people moving about – his parents, I suppose. He glances towards the door and sighs. ‘It’s time for lunch,’ he says. ‘I’d better go.’ ‘Oh. And me,’ I say. ‘But I’ll see you later.’ ‘Yeah.’ ‘Don’t forget to ask about the weekend,’ he says. ‘Ask if I can stay the night.’ ‘I will,’ I promise. In the darkness, there is the shape of a figure: pale, outlined against the shadows. ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。この英文は幼い頃の回想シーンです。 There’s an annual in one of the boxes with whole stories in it – fourteen episodes, one after the other, so you don’t have to wait a week or find the next issue. の個所は、どういうことを言っているのでしょうか？ annualは年刊の、という意味ですか？？ 教えてください。お願いします。

anual は年刊のようですね。年に一回、いくつかのストーリーをまとめて年刊として出版するやり方のようです。 http://marvel.wikia.com/wiki/Amazing_Spider-Man_Annual_Vol_1_38 「箱の中の一つにアニュアルが入ってて、全部の話が入っているんだ。14話分、一つ一つ。だから君は１週間まったり次の発行分を見つける必要はないんだ。」

１。There’s an annual in one of the boxes with whole stories in it – fourteen episodes, one after the other, so you don’t have to wait a week or find the next issue. の個所は、どういうことを言っているのでしょうか？ 訳 箱の中に年に一回出る、次から次へと１４話、載せてあるから、話の続きを一週間待ったり、次の号を探したりしなくてもいいのが、入ってるんだ。 ２。annualは年刊の、という意味ですか？？ はい、おっしゃる通りです。
お礼
訳して頂いてありがとうございました！年刊というのがあまりピンとこなかったのですが、つまりは年に一回出る、ということなのですね。 ありがとうございます！

（その1からの続きです） Then he says, ‘Oh, listen, Alex. There's something I meant to say to you before you left. You know Julia Connell?' ‘Of course,' I say. ‘She's got this idea for the catalogue; a kind of overview of your work in conversation with the artist. She wants to meet up and talk to you about some of the paintings –hang on –I have it right here—' ‘Max?' I say. ‘Max, can you hear me?' There's a moment's pause, and then, ‘Yes,' he says. ‘Have you got a bad line?' ‘I don't know,' I say. ‘You just sound –very distant.' ‘Oh. I'll try to speak up. Yes –it says here that she wants to cover themes in your work, and she's listed a few. She wanted me to ask you if you can think these over and come up with some ideas –you know, why they feature, what significance they have for you, symbolism, all that. Then she'll talk to you and turn it all into some kind of stream-of-consciousness thing. I think –yes, she says she wants to run it along the bottom third of some of the catalogue pages, with the pictures and the notes on them above. Can you visualize that? Alex?' ****************************************** ‘She's got this idea for the catalogue; a kind of overview of your work in conversation with the artist.

Now he is looking puzzled. ‘What, like a walk?’ ‘Yes,’ I say. ‘Like that. That’s what I was doing.’ He is quiet for a time, then he says, ‘So you’d gone with Lena and then you came back and then you came here and I found you?’ （前回の終わりの部分です） ‘No,’ I say, surprised he doesn’t understand. ‘I was with Lena and then you called me and I came back. I heard you say my name.’ ‘But I saw you. You were right here.’ He isn’t laughing at me and he isn’t angry with me. His voice is steady and serious, as though he has found something that must be examined until it makes sense. He doesn’t sound like he cares if it takes him all day. ‘I was with Lena too,’ I say. ‘You mean like a dream?’ ‘No.’ Dreams are all fuzzy, blurred, strange; they aren’t real. ‘When you go somewhere. Like up the valley with Lena.’ ‘You make it up?’ ‘No. Like now, like I’m here with you.’ ‘I don’t understand,’ he says. I can’t think of anything else to say to make it clearer. He sits there, still frowning slightly, thinking it all through. Then he says, ‘Can you go anywhere?’ ‘Sure.’ ‘Like the moon?’ He sounds suddenly excited. ‘Oh. No. Just – places in the valley. With Lena, or the town, or the garden.’ ‘Oh.’ Another pause. ‘Anywhere in the valley, though?’ ‘Just places I know,’ I say, and at that there is a sudden sense that something heavy has shifted – just a little – in my head, moving reluctantly, trying to accommodate what I’ve just said. The questions Jamie is asking aren’t ones anyone’s ever asked me before. I haven’t asked them to myself either. They feel like they’re prodding at me, searching, trying to find me out. ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。この英文は回想シーンで幼なじみのJamieと話しているところです。 He doesn’t sound like he cares if it takes him all day. の意味がよく掴めません。 itはsomething that must be examinedですか？it takes him all dayとはどういうことなのでしょうか？ ‘When you go somewhere.

He looks at once wary, but almost as quickly the wariness vanishes and is replaced by curiosity. He glances towards the house, once, then runs across the garden until he’s standing below me. (前回の終わりの部分です） ‘Hello,’ he says. ‘Who’re you?’ A quick flood of warmth comes with the words: he speaks like Lena – Italian. ‘I’m Alex,’ I say. ‘Hello.’ ‘I’m Jamie. Pleased to meet you,’ he adds, formally. Then he says, ‘How did you get up there?’ ‘It’s not as high this side.’ ‘What’s back there?’ ‘Rocks,’ I say. ‘And lizards.’ ‘Really?’ I can see him looking at the wall, which must be almost hidden from him by bushes and flowers, looking for a way up. ‘My garden has a tree,’ I explain. ‘You climb that, then you climb the wall.’ ‘There’s nothing here,’ he says, sounding frustrated. Then, ‘Wait – I know.’ He looks up at me again. ‘You’ll stay there?’ ‘OK.’ ‘Won’t be long.’ He turns and runs away across the lawn to the side of the house, and disappears from sight there. I cling on where I am, wondering what he is going to do. It is like a puzzle, like one of the ones my father gives me to stimulate my mind. ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。（この英文は子供時代の回想シーンだと思われます） A quick flood of warmth comes with the wordsとはどういう感じなのでしょうか？言葉と一緒に暖かさのすばやい洪水がやってくる？？ ‘How did you get up there?' ‘It's not as high this side.' ‘What's back there?' ‘Rocks,' I say. ‘And lizards.' のやりとりがちょっとよく理解できているかわからないのですが。 「きみはどうやってそこへ登って来たの？」 「こっちの側のように高くないんだ」 「そこの後ろに何があるの？」 「岩だよ」僕は言う。「それからとかげ」 こんな感じですか？？ It is like a puzzle, like one of the ones my father gives me to stimulate my mind.とあるのですが、Itが指すものは何になるのでしょうか？I cling on where I am, wondering what he is going to do.（自分がいる場所にしがみついて、彼が何をするつもりでいるのかと不思議がっていること）ですか？ 教えてください。お願いします。

‘Lena?’ ‘Yes?’ ‘Do you think Signor Ferucci’s a hermit?’ Lena shakes her head. ‘No. Just someone who keeps themself to themself.’ ‘Oh. All right.’ （前回の終わりの部分です） We walk on in companionable silence and, in my head, impressions of the hermit whirl, becoming confused with details Lena has mentioned until the church in which the man crouches has an interior like a cave, with rock walls and stalactites and bones, while at the entrance blazes a bonfire, sending up a column of smoke that alarms the distant townsfolk. Alex? comes a voice out of nowhere, sounding somehow bigger than the valley around me, and----- And the afternoon tumbles away from me and--- ‘Alex?’ Jamie says. I blink. ‘Hello,’ I say. He is crouched next to me. ‘Are you OK?’ ‘Yes,’ I say. ‘I didn’t hear you.’ ‘You were like you were asleep,’ he says, ‘but your eyes were open. I could see them. I kept calling you but you didn’t move.’ ‘I was thinking,’ I say. Saying this, I have found, usually works. ‘It was weird.’ I shrug. ‘I was just thinking,’ I say again. After a moment’s hesitation, he sits down on the flat rock beside me. ‘What were you thinking about?’ Now it is my turn to hesitate. I have become used to what to say to my parents, but perhaps this is not the right thing to say to Jamie. I look at him, and his brown eyes are interested, not suspicious. I say, ‘I was thinking with Lena.’ ‘Who’s Lena?’ ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。この英文は回想シーンだと思われます。 becoming confused with details Lena has mentioned until the church in which the man crouches has an interior like a caveの個所でcrouches hasとあるのですが、動詞が二つ続いている感じがしています。どうなっているのでしょうか？？ And the afternoon tumbles away from me and---のtumblesの意味がよくわかりません。午後は私から離れて混乱する？？主人公が混乱している、という意味なのでしょうか？でもaway fromとあるので、どういうことなのかわかりません。 He is crouched next to me.のcrouchは「かがむ」という意味だと思うのですが、受動態になっている理由がわかりません。 Saying this, I have found, usually worksの意味がわかりません。これを言いながら、僕は通常仕事を見つけた？？ 教えてください。お願いします。

I look up at the sky again. It’s not the time of year for the shooting stars yet; a few months must pass before the Perseids wash through the Earth’s orbit and burn briefly through the high atmosphere. Jamie tells me all about them. We watch them together.（前回の終わりの部分です） ‘There’s one – over there.’ I turn my head a fraction and catch the last dying trace of light as the star burns out. ‘That’s fourteen,’ I say. ‘They’re great, aren’t they?’ ‘Yeah.’ ‘People say you should wish when you see one.’ ‘We should do that.’ ‘OK. On the next one.’ ‘We could have had fourteen wishes by now,’ I say. ‘Do you believe in all that?’ ‘All what?’ ‘Wishes and stuff.’ I think about it. ‘I don’t think so,’ I say at last. ‘Me neither.’ I can hear the grin in his voice as he adds, ‘But let’s do it anyway.’ We wait until the next star cuts across the sky. ‘What did you wish for?’ I ask. ‘It’s a secret,’ he says. ‘You have to keep them a secret if you want them to come true.’ ‘Oh.’ ‘They aren’t really stars, you know,’ he says. He speaks quietly, almost dreamily. ‘They’re pieces of rock. Meteors. They drift through space, and once a year this big sort of cloud of them – it’s called a swarm – comes. They go round the sun, you see, like us, only we only catch up with them once a year. And then they burn up.’ ‘Why do they burn up?’ ‘Because of the air.’ ‘Rocks don’t burn,’ I say. ‘Yes they do. Look at volcanoes. That’s rock.’ ‘Oh, yeah,’ I say. He’s right. ‘Why does the air make them burn?’ ‘There’s another.’ ‘I see it. Sixteen.’ ＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊ 主人公のAlexはartistで、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに帰ってきています。 Alexと幼なじみのJamieが話しているシーンです。（子供の頃の回想シーン？） ‘Do you believe in all that?’ ‘All what?’ ‘Wishes and stuff.’ このセリフの中のstuffは何を意味しているのでしょうか？漠然としたもの？？ They drift through space, and once a year this big sort of cloud of them – it’s called a swarm – comes.

Is this making sense to you?’ ‘Yes,’ I say, slowly. ‘Yes, I know what she means.’ ‘Thank God for that. Then we’ve got group-of-three motifs: groupings of forms in arrangements of three; similar forms repeated three times, ungrouped but within the same work; trilaterally symmetrical forms or forms divided into three.’ He pauses. ‘Are you sure you can remember all this?’ ‘You have to concentrate, Alex,’ my father is saying. ‘How can you remember things if you don’t concentrate?’ ‘I try,’ I say. ‘Well, try trying a bit harder.’ ****************************************** 「The Dandelion clock」からの英文です。 ：主人公のAlexと知人と思われるMaxが電話で話している場面です。 transgressions of boundaries; crossing edges; intrusions of one form into another.ここはどういう感じのことを言っているのでしょうか？ similar forms repeated three times, ungrouped but within the same work; trilaterally symmetrical forms or forms divided into threeの部分もよくわかりません。 Well, try trying a bit harder.とありますが、try a bit harderというのとどういう違いがあるのでしょうか？ 教えてください。お願いします。

‘You’re weird,’ he says eventually. I blink. But then he says, ‘I like you, though.’ And my heart skips once, and feels as if it is grinning inside me. ‘I like you too,’ I say. ‘And wouldn’t it be great if you could go anywhere, just in your head – the moon or Mars, or different planets?’ I have never thought about this either. ‘I suppose,’ I say. (前回の終わりの部分です） ‘I’d love that.’ He looks entranced with the possibility. ‘Do you like comics?’ ‘I don’t know.’ ‘I’ve got some great ones. They’re in English, though,’ he adds, doubtfully. ‘But I speak English,’ I say, surprised. It takes me a moment to remember that Jamie is a foreigner, like me. Astonished, I switch from the way we have been talking – the way I talk with Lena – to the other way I talk, when I’m with my parents. ‘Can you speak like this?’ Jamie looks just as astonished, but he answers the same way. ‘Yes. My father’s English.’ ‘Mine too,’ I say. ‘And Mummy,’ I add, remembering. Suddenly he begins to laugh – a little at first that quickly grows into a great uncontrollable peal that rings against the side of the valley. He points at me, helplessly, and then at himself, and I understand immediately what he means – We’re such idiots! – and the funny side of it strikes me, too. I can’t help it; I join him, laughing harder and harder until my sides hurt and there are tears in my eyes. I can’t think of a time when I’ve laughed harder. At last we quieten down. Occasionally we look sideways at each other and giggles overwhelm us again; but in the end we are too tired to laugh any more.

On one of the bookshelves is a small black case, lined with worn red velvet, in which Jamie keeps his clarinet. He’s played it to me several times. Once school starts, his parents are going to find him a new teacher here, and he’ll learn new pieces, and play those to me as well. （前回の終わりの部分です） ‘Here. This is the Silver Surfer. You’ll like him. And here’s Spiderman. You know him, of course.’ I nod, unable to confess that I don’t – that I have never before seen the red and blue masked figure that leaps towards me from the page Jamie is holding open. He tells me how Spiderman was normal until he was bitten by a radioactive spider; he points things out, tells me who each of the characters is, passes me other comics to compare. I sit, entranced, while the bright colours and vivid panels of the cartoons accumulate around me, until I am like an island in a pool of brilliantly hued pages. ‘You can borrow them, if you like,’ he says. ‘Take them home to read.’ ‘Thanks!’ I say, but then I realize something. ‘What is it?’ he asks. ‘I – nothing.’ ‘Tell me.’ ‘I can’t read the words,’ I say. ‘I can help you with the long ones,’ he says. ‘No – I mean, I—’ ‘Can’t you read at all?’ he asks. He sounds shocked, but I know he won’t laugh at me or be unkind; he is just amazed that I can live without this essential ability. In a flash of understanding, I look around me at the room and see why he might think this. ‘My dad's teaching me,' I say. ‘Oh,' he says. For a moment he seems at a loss. Then he says, ‘I suppose what you do – you know, the going places in your head – that's like reading stories, isn't it?' ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。この英文は幼い頃の回想シーンです。 I nod, unable to confess that I don’t – that I have never before seen the red and blue masked figure that leaps towards me from the page Jamie is holding open.の中の、leaps towards me from the pageというのはどういう意味ですか？ページから私の方へ飛んで行く？？ I sit, entranced, while the bright colours and vivid panels of the cartoons accumulate around me, until I am like an island in a pool of brilliantly hued pages. のuntil I am like an island~は「僕が鮮やかな色のページの中のプールの中にある島のようになるまで」ですか？？意味がよくわかりません。 In a flash of understanding, I look around me at the room and see why he might think this. の最後のthisは何を指しているのでしょうか？seeは”想像する”という意味ですか？ 教えてください。お願いします。

There is a sharp silence. At last he says, ‘Alex, how long are you talking about? The weekend?’ ‘Maybe,’ I say. ‘I don’t know.’ ‘Well, that’s all right – just. But let’s not cut things too close here. This is the big one, remember?’ ‘Sure,’ I say. （前回の終わりの部分です） Suddenly he laughs. ‘You really hate all of this, don’t you?’ he says. ‘I wouldn’t be surprised if the house was perfect and you were inventing rising damp so you can sit in the sun and keep out of my way.’ ‘Actually, it’s been raining,’ I tell him. ‘Whatever. Look, enjoy yourself, all right? Have some beers in between fixing up builders and all that. When things are sorted out, give me a call.

The idea is amazing. In another couple of seconds, I see that I can do the same from my front gate, turning right instead of left. It has never occurred to me before that this might be possible.

Where are these lizards?’ I look around me. ‘They’re not here any more,’ I say. ‘They go away when it’s evening.’ ‘Oh,’ he says, sounding disappointed. ‘But you said they were here.’ ‘They’ll be here tomorrow,’ I say. ‘If you could come tomorrow, I could show you some.’ ‘Yeah? OK.’ At that, we both hear a woman’s voice calling, ‘Jamie!’ ‘That’s my mum,’ he says. ‘I’ve got to go. I’ll see you tomorrow. Bye, Alex.’ ‘Bye,’ I call after him, as he runs off around the end of the wall. He runs quickly and easily, his feet sure on the uneven ground, almost as if he is floating. I trudge back to my end of the wall, but rather than climb over, I go around the end, and find to my astonishment that what I have worked out is right: after getting through the fence, I am outside my own front gate. The discovery makes me smile as I go inside, and the smile is made wider by the thought that tomorrow, Jamie and I are going to look for lizards together. ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。（この英文は子供時代の回想シーンだと思われます） He runs quickly and easily, his feet sure on the uneven ground, almost as if he is floating.のhis feet sure on the uneven groundは、彼の足はでこぼこの地面の上で確かに、という意味ですか？sureは副詞ですか？ 教えてください。 お願いします。
