＞By contrast, look at the United States. "Scattered over three thousand miles . . . Lacking traditions of the Lord and Professor . . . relatively impotent, and driven to vagaries in consequence." 上記英文を御訳し願います。 ⇒文脈・前後関係が分かりませんので、多分に推測混じりで確信はありませんが、以下のとおり、語句・訳文をお答えします。 （語句） ＊By contrast：「比較対象的に、それに対して」。 ＊Scattered over three thousand miles：「3,000マイルにわたって散らばっていて」。 ＊Lacking traditions of the Lord and Professor：「貴族（地主・領主）制度や教授組織の伝統がないので」。Lacking は理由・原因を表す分詞構文で、Lord やProfessorは大文字ですので、制度や組織を表していると思われます。 ＊relatively impotent：「相対的に非力な」。relatively「相対的に」とは、おそらく「イギリスに比べて」と言っているのでしょう。 ＊driven to vagaries in consequence：「その結果、気まぐれな変転状態（になっている）」。driven to のto は「程度や帰着点」を表し、vagariesは「気まぐれな変転・散在（状態）」といったニュアンスだと思います。 （訳文） 《比較対象的に、アメリカを見てください。「3,000マイルにわたって散らばっていますね…。貴族制度や教授組織の伝統がありませんので…相対的に（イギリスに比べて）非力であり、その結果、気まぐれに変転分散しています。」》 ＊こうしてみると、本文は「大学・学問や文化の拠点など」について述べているくだりとも読めるような表現かも知れませんね。

Wedding ceremonies in the United States vary depending on the cultural and religious background of the individuals getting married. In some traditions, it is important that a young man ask a young woman's parents' permission to get married. In some traditions, the bride will wear "something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue." Some couples believe it is unlucky to see each other on the morning of the wedding and even more unlucky if the groom sees the bride in her wedding dress just before the actual marrige ceremony. There are many traditions included in the various wedding ceremonies in the United States but one common tradition, regardless of culture or religion, is the wedding announcement. A wedding announcement is unque in English-speaking countries. In the United States famous newspapers like the New York Times have a website for wedding announcements. Whether a couple is newly engaged or newly married, they can make apublic announcement and submit information to the newspaper about the wedding or celebration. The following is a typical marriage announcement that appears in a newspaper.

This is an example of the parents of the bride making the announcement

英文の和訳に困っています。皆さんお願いします。 The number of Japanese living in Britain has been growing fast over the last 30 years or so. In 1970, fewer than 3,000 Japanese lived in Britain; now there are more than 60,000 which makes them the third largest group of Japanese living abroad ( after those living in the United States and Brazil ). A couple of thousand have officially settled in Britain, but most are living in Britain for work or to study, mainly in and around London. Scotland and south Wales are each home to about a thousand Japanese workers and their families; some also live in north-east England, where Nissan makes cars. 翻訳サイトを使わないで、翻訳していただけると助かります。

Take a look at any crime statistics of countries around the world and Japan is usually near the bottom. For example, Japan has one of the lowest homicide rates with only about one person murdered per 200,000 people each year. This figure is about 10 times lower than that of the United States. As for Japan's two closest neighbors, it is four times lower than South Korea and 40 times lower than Russia Although there are occasionally sensational murders, clearly, Japan is a very safe country.

What it a unitary system? A confederal one?という質問があったので、下記の文章を探しました。 英文が長くて申し訳ないです。 参考にしたのは２段落目からです。 The issue was resolved through compromise, the first of many at the Convention. To keep the Virginia Plan a live proposal, Madison withdrew the proposal for a national veto over state laws, and the Convention agreed in principle to redistribute some of their state’s powers to a government of the United States. This form of government we now call federal, a system in which sovereign political authority is shared between the central government and regional (state or provincial) governments. This is in in contrast to a confederal system, as the states had under the Articles, where the regional governments are sovereign, and the central government has only as much authority as the regional governments allow it, and a unitary system where the central government is sovereign, and the state or provincial governments have only as much power as the central government allows them. この文章を踏まえて、質問に対する答えは [Unitary systemはconfederal oneとは対照的で中央政府が主権国家である。] でいいでしょうか？ 質問の回答（英文）はまとめて、また後日に質問させていただくかもしれません。 よろしくお願いします。

Say something! And look at me! The meaning of silence and pauses Years ago my professor, John Condon, told us in one of his classes that in the United States television programs cannot have more than three seconds of silence. After that duration, people would start calling the television station to ask if the sound had been turned off. A short while later, I watched an old Japanese movie on T.V., in which two samurai faced each other in a hallway and said nothing-for 10 minutes. Although there was music in the background, the two men did not emit a single word or sound during those 10 minutes and only glared at each other. 英文翻訳 何か言って! 私を見て! 沈黙と一次停止の意味 私が師事したジョン・コンドン教授は数年前の授業で「米国のテレビ番組では三秒以上の無音状態があってはならない」と言いました。 もしそうなれば、テレビ局に対して「音声が消されたのか」という質問を人々が寄せ始めるだろう、というのです。 それからしばらくして、私はテレビで日本映画を観ました。 その映画の中では二人の侍が十分間無言で廊下で向かい合っていました。 パックグラウンドミュージックは流れていたけれど、二人の侍は十分間一言も一音も発することなくただにらみ合っていたのでした。

If someone invites you to a party at 5:00 p.m. in the United States, you are expected to arrive 20 or 50 or so minutes late so that the hostess has enough time to make last-minure preparations, shower and dress up, and look like it was all no trouble at all. It is not polite in the United States to make the guests feel like their presence is any kind of burden. It is in turn not polite to point out to the hostess that she must have worked hard to prepare for the party. 日本語訳 もし誰かが午後5時からのパーティーにあなたを招待したなら、アメリカでは、主催者の妻が最後の仕上げをし、シャワーを浴び、ドレスアップし、そして最終的に問題なしと確認する時間をあたえるために20～50分遅れていくはずです。客に自分たちがいるだけで、主演者側の負担になっていると感じさせることは、アメリカでは洗練されたことではないのです。同様に主催者側の妻に対し、パーティーの準備を頑張ったんですねと指し示すことも、洗練された行いではありません。

one or the otherと入っている文章の意味がどうしてもつかめません。 その文は以下の(出てくるまで長いのですが）、一番最後のセンテンスにあります。 The melting pot metaphor became very common in the late 18th century, in the late 1700’s in the United States, and is still used today. It became especially popular in the 1970’s when the United States, having changed its immigration policy in the mid 1960’s, started to receive, again, a very large number of immigrants. The United States always had immigrants up to the early 20th century, but the immigration laws changed and for a period of, oh, about 40 years, there weren’t as many immigrants coming to the United States as there were in the late 19th century, early 20th century. Now, that situation changed again in the 60’s and by the 1970’s, we were getting more and more immigrants, immigrants not just from Europe where traditionally immigrants had come from, but also from Asia, from Africa, from Latin America. There was a movement in the United States, especially among some of the newer immigrants, to value the differences that people brought with them. This idea became known as “multiculturalism.” “Multi” means many. And the “multiculturalism” idea said people don’t have to change when they come to this country. There doesn’t have to be a melting pot. They can keep some of their original ideas and traditions. So, there are basically these two ideas about what should happen to immigrants, not just in the United States, but, of course, in any country. Those who advocated or said we should adopt a multicultural approach used a different metaphor, the metaphor of a mosaic. A “mosaic” (mosaic) is a kind of artwork that’s created by putting very small pieces of tile, ceramic or stone, possibly glass of different colors and when you look at it from a distance, it has a certain image. Other people use the metaphor of a salad bowl, where you had different elements together, but they all stayed separate in some way, they didn’t melt together, which is the correct metaphor. Well, that’s a continuing debate in the United States. Most people, I think, recognize that different cultures bring different gifts in their own traditions to the United States. People also recognize that in order to live as one country, we all have to share some ideas, some common vision. And exactly what the correct mix of those two are, is a constant topic of not only conversation among Americans, but also of policy, of what our government should do to encourage one or the other vision of the U.S. という以上の文章の最後の〝our government should do to encourage one or the other vision of the U.S.〟の one or the other というのは、 「どっちがどっちか 」「どれか一方[ひとつ] 」という熟語なのか、それとも to encourageの目的語の one と同じく to encourage の目的語のthe other vision of the U.S と、単にorでつながっているのか、 いずれにしろ最後の文章の意味がわかりません。 よろしくお願いします。

以下の文章です。 It is, of course, true that the emancipation of Asia and Africa and the development of the European crisis went hand in hand. Among the factors which facilitated the rise of independence movements in Asia and Africa, we must include the weakening of the grip of the European powers, Iargely as a consequence of their own discords and rivalries and of the wastage of resources in which their wars resulted. From the time of the First World War the incipient nationalist movements in the non-European world profited and the sudden collapse of the European empires after 1947 was to a large extent a consequence of external pressures and of the impact of world politics. In Asia neither the British nor the French nor the Dutch ever recovered from the blows inflicted by japan between 1941 and 1945; while in Africa and the Middle East they were checked and forced into retreat by pressures from the United States-acting directly and through the United Nations-which had a strong anti-colonial tradition of its own and was unwilling to stand aside while colonialism drove the peoples of Asia and Africa over to the side of the Soviet Union. Nationalism came to Asia a century later than it came to Europe and to black Africa fifty years later than to Asia. Two external events in the early years of the twentieth century were a powerful stimulus in its rise. The first was the victory of Japan over Russia in the war of 1904-5ー a victory hailed by dependent peoples everywhere as a blow to European ascendancy and proof that European arms were not invincible. Its impact was redoubled when, ten years later,the Japanese defeated the Germans in Shantung; and the successful campaigns of Kemal Ataturk against France in 1920 and Greece in 1922 were greeted in the same way as Asian victories over western military power. The second event was the Russian revolution of 1905ーa revolution which produced scarcely an echo in Europe but which, seen as a struggle for liberation from despotism, had an electrifying effect throughout Asia. The wave of unrest extended as far as Vietnam, and its impact, in sparking off the Persian revolution of 1906, the Turkish revolution of 1908 and the Chinese revolution of 1911, and in the new impetus it gave to the Indian Congress movement in 1907, was such that its consequences in Asia have been compared with those of the French revolution of 1789 in Europe.
