すみませんが英語に自信のある人はご協力をお願いします。 次の文の和訳を知りたいです。 For example,it is suggested that animals do not modify their signals to address one individual rather than another,and in this sense that they address no one in particular. This is certainly not true in specific instances,such as the exchange of calls between mating birds,or between the African honey guide and the honey badger that follows the bird. But even where it is true,in insect colonies and hunting packs,it is a characteristic of social organization and not of language. The animal addresses no one in particular because it addresses everyone in the community.The only individual that the animal does not know how to address is itself;so that its shortcoming is not that it cannot turn monologue into dialogue,but that it cannot turn it into soliloquy.The bee that tries to dance in an almost empty hive fails to read its context,but the dance remains a signal and not a private act.For the dance has been evolved by a process of natural selection whose effect is constantly to improve its social efficiency.The same pressure of selection has shaped all animal calls and gestures to make them,in general,signals that instruct the whole community. 文章は人間と動物のlanguageの違いを述べた文章です。 よろしくお願いします。長ければThe only individualの前まででもお願いします。

The illusion of unlimited natural abundance fostered by the frontier myth is cause for concern. Does America or any nation have unlimited natural abundance? There Will Be blood(2007) shows the ppioneer as a greedy capitalist who becomes rich on oil. Today's West faces serious environmental problems. The Red Desert is an area of 24,000 square kilometers in the southern part of Wyoming.The world's largest herd of elk and many species of rare plants and birds live here, but the area is threatened with dedstruction by oil and gas drilling. Over 5,000 wells have been sunk in recent years, and the U.S. government has approved 15,000 more. In Alaska, former governor and recent vice-presidential canadidate Sarah Palin, who portrays herself as an independent frontier politician supports oil and gas drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, the home of threatened polar bears and caribou. Palin even filed suit against the U.S. government because its Endangered Species Act blocks drilling in the state. With such policies, the American West many soon look like the Alaska shown in The Simpsons Movie (2007) a landscape of oil wells and pipelines, where each resident is brided with "a thousand dollars to allow oil companies to ravage state's natural beauty."

お願いします。 　At first the Egyptians simply marked the riverbank to measure the height of the Nile. But it wasn't long before the Egyptians invented measuring devices. We call them nilometers. Some looked like a giant yardstick made from marble. Other nilometers were even more elaborate. Workers dug staircases into wells and erected engraved pillars marked to gauge how high the water rose. 　After the flood months, when the water finally receded and left behind rich, black earth, farmers scattered their seeds, the first of several plantings. The second season―peret―had begun. Farmers lifted water from the steady flowing river with shadufs, devices that looked like catapults. With a bucket for dipping on one end of a pole, and a counterweight to make lifting easy on the other, the shadufs creaked and groaned while farmers raised and pivoted the buckets to fill channels that snaked through their gardens. 　Farmers tended their fields with care into the third season―shemu. During shemu the level of the Nile dropped, and many side channels dried up. The land parched and the desert seemed to close in. The red sands inched toward the villages. Near the end of shemu, Egyptians began to fret and worry. Would the Nile ever rise again? Had the gods forgotten to release the waters? They sang, "they dread him who creates the heat," and they sacrificed birds and gazelles for the return of the Nile's floodwaters. And then the cycle repeated. "Hail to thee, O Nile! Who...comes to give life to Egypt!"

下の文章を自分なりに和訳してみたので、添削していただけるとうれしいです。 "I left Tangier, my birthplace, the 13th of June 1325 with the intention of making the pilgrimage [to Mecca].... to leave all my friends both female and male, to abandon my home as birds abandon their nests." 「私は、メッカに巡礼をするつもりで、出生地のタンジールを1325年6月13日に去りました.... 私の女性も男性もすべての友達を残し、鳥が巣を捨てるように、私は家を捨てた。」 So begins an old manuscript in a library in Paris -- the travel journal of Ibn Battuta. それで、パリの図書館で、古い原稿書き始めた－Ibn Battutaの旅行日記である。 Almost two centuries before Columbus, this young Moroccan set off for Mecca, returning home three decades later as one of history's great travelers. コロンブスより、ほぼ2世紀前に、この若いモロッコ人はメッカに向けて出発し、歴史の偉大な旅行者の1人として30年後に帰った。 Driven by curiosity, he journeyed to remote corners of the Islamic world, traveling through 44 modern countries, three times as far as Marco Polo. 好奇心によって運転で44の現代の国を旅し、彼はマルコ・ポーロに達するまで3回、イスラム世界の遠い隅々を旅行した。

Now the power needed for the minimum speed increases more rapidly than the weight of the machine. So the larger aeroplane,which weights sixty-four times as much as the smaller,needs one hundred and twenty-eight times its horsepower to keep up. Applying the same principles to the birds, we find that the limit to their size is soon reached. An angel whose muscles developed no more power weight for weight than those of an eagle or a pigeon would require a breast projecting for about four feet to house the muscles engaged in working its wings,while to economize in weight,its legs would have to be reduced to mere stilts. 一行目から三行目までは 今、機械の重さよりも最低限のスピードをもっとはやくする必要がある。 そこでより大きい飛行機、それは小さな飛行機の64倍もあり、128倍の馬力を維持していた。 鳥に対して同じ理論を適用すると鳥のサイズの限界にすぐに達することがわかるだろう。 でいいのですか？英語が全然できないので4行目は全然訳せません。。。 よろしくお願いします

お願いします (7) But perhaps the story that Hatshepsut would most want us to know is about the trade expedition to Punt. The story is drawn in detail on the walls of the temple where she was worshipped after death. The story shows how Hatshepsut added to Egypt's wealth by focusing her reign on trade and exploration. It shows that with Hatshepsut as king, there was a whole lot of flourishing going on in Egypt. There was ma'at. A series of pictures and captions tell the story of the journey to Punt. (8) Five sailing ships manned with soldiers, officials, and rowers leave Egypt. Whe they arrive off foreign shores they anchor and all climb into small boats loaded with trinkets for trade. While making their way through the jungle of ebony and palm tree, the Egyptian traders come across a village. Beehive-shaped huts made from woven palm fronds sit up on stilts so far above the ground that the only way to get inside is to climb ladders leading from the ground up to the doorways. (9) The exact location of Punt is not known, but the animals in the scenes are clearly African. There are leopards, rhinoceros, and giraffes. The carvings show trees full of monkeys. Scholars believe that the expedition took place in the spring because the birds in the pictures are nesting.

ある論文？記事？なんですが、英語が読めないので全く分かりません・・・ お手数をかけるようですがよろしければ訳していただけると嬉しいです。 Storks are beautiful birds with black-and-white wings and long black bills. They used to live along rivers, wetlands and rice fields. For food, they ate fish, frogs and grasshoppers. The number of storks began decreasing during the Meiji Period due to hunting. Also, farmers used agriculture chemicals after World War II, and this destroyed the storks’ food supply. In 1956, the government designated storks as a specially protected species. In 1965, Hyogo Prefecture opened a special facility where researchers could breed storks in captivity. However, it was already too late to save them. In 1971, the last wild stork died in Toyooka City and the species became extinct in Japan. The people there were deeply saddened by this. In 1985, six young wild storks were sent from Khabarovsk, Russia. If the storks had not been given to the facility, the breeding project, 118 storks had been hatched by the time the first five were released. September 24, 2005 was an historic day. It was the first attempt to release storks from the facility into the wild. After more than thirty years, the people of Toyooka could welcome the storks back to Japan.

船倉に搭載するよう指示して貨物を輸送したのですが、船会社がデッキ上に搭載してしまい、結果として水濡れで大きな被害が出ました。　以下、運送約款の一文です。 DECK CARGO AND LIVE ANIMALS All goods stated herein to be carried on deck, and live animals, birds or fish are received, handled, stowed, carried, kept and discharged at Merchant's risk and the Carrier shall not be liable for loss thereof, damage or delay whatsoever and howsoever occurring even though resulting from unseaworthiness of the ship or from the negligence of the Carrier, his servants or agents or in case of deviation of the ship. 「この契約書上に記載されたすべての貨物は、デッキ上に搭載され輸送される」という意味合いだと先方は主張しますが・・・どうしてもそのようには読み取れません。 「All goods stated herein to be carried on deck,」は、「全ての貨物はデッキ上に搭載される」ということではなく、「契約書上デッキ上に搭載するとされているすべての貨物」という長い名詞ではないでしょうか。　そして、それらの貨物および動物類は「船会社ではなく輸送代行人の責任のもとに輸送される」という意味ではないでしょうか。 「All goods stated herein to be carried on deck,」の最後の「,」が気になりますが・・・ どう解釈したらよいか、アドバイスいただけないでしょうか。　よろしくお願いします。

英語の文章でわからない構文があります。 ラジオ英会話のテキストの文章の一部に、 「The birds paid no heed to the Swallow's words,and by and by the hemp grew up and was made into cord, and of the cord nets were made, and many a bird that had despised the Swallow's advise was caught in the nets made out of that very hemp.」 とあるのですが、and of the cord nets were madeの部分のofの役割がわかりません。 このofはいらない気がするのですが、表記してあるということは何らかの意味をもつわけですよね？ その前に出てくるcordを用いて網を作ったという意味でofが使われていることが言いたいのだと想像していますが、主語として「of the cord net」という文章を使うものなのでしょうか？ どなたか教えてくださいm(_ _)m ちなみに訳は：鳥たちはツバメの助言に耳を貸さなかった。そして麻は徐々に育ち、ひもにされ、そのひもから網が作られ、ツバメの助言を嘲笑った多くの鳥たちは、まさにその麻でできた網で捕えられたのだ です。

かなり初歩的なのですが、理解出来ないので教えて下さい。 be動詞と普通動詞の2つの場合でお願いします。 主語がIの時、am、haveとなる。 主語がheの時、is、hasとなる。 という人が主語(I、he、we等)の場合は分かります。 (1)an eventの時、is、hasですよね。 　an eventsの時、are、hasですよね。 　上は三人称単数、下は三人称複数。 　でも、ある本の例文なのですが、 　『間違っている部分はどれ?』という問題で、 　It is one of the most important events that has happend this 　year. 　thatはeventsに掛かっているので、 　hasの動詞で正解ではないのでしょうか? 　答えはhaveと変えてあって、分かりません。 (2)これも同じ本の例文なのですが、 　『述語動詞isに繋がれるのはどれ?』という問題で、 　(the number、a number、lots、a good deal) of tropical birds 　here is amazing. 　私はa good dealと思ったのですが、 　the number以外は単数形でないから繋げない、書いてありました。 　lotsは何処かで聞いたので分かるのですが、 　a numberやa good dealはどうして違うのでしょうか? 　a number is、a good deal is、は駄目なのでしょうか? 　numbers、good dealsなら分かるのですが… (3)most of my friendsが主語の場合、 　hasではなく、haveと書かれているのですが、 　複数形なのでhasではないのでしょうか? 　良ければ教えて下さい。

英語から日本語への翻訳です！！ 英語から日本語に翻訳願います！サイトと、翻訳してほしいところを手順で説明しますので、お願いします！大変な作業なのですがお願いします。 サイトの出し方。 まず、www.ava.gov.sgでググって、一番上に出たサイトを開く。 そして、えいごのサイトを開くと左のほうに、カラフルな場所があるので、そこを下にいくと、青のブースにオウムがうつってます。そこの一番上をクリックせずに位置を合わせます。そうすると、水色っぽいらんがでてきます。そこの1番上をクリックする。そうするとムラサキっぽいらんが下にでてくる。 黒でimport of personal petsと書かれたものの下に緑の文字で書かれたものがあると思います。そこの上から4番目のBirds,small mammals and other petsをクリックすると、また緑の文字がでてきます。それの上から2番目をクリック。そしてファイルを開くと、英語が出てきます。そこをすべてほんやくしていただけるとありがたいです。とても大変ですが、よろしくお願いします。

When automobiles first began to appear on the roads and streets of this country they did not have horns of any kind. The noise they made and the moderate speed at which they went made horns unnecessary. But in time it was felt that a warning device was needed. The first such signal was a hand-operated horn consisting of a rubber bulb on one end of a brass trumpet. In 1908 an inventor secured a patent on a horn that was electrically operated. He coined Klaxon as the trade-mark for his new product, and this word has now become popular. Klaxon is based upon the Creek verb klazein, which is related to the Latin word clangere from which "clang" comes. The Greek verb means to make a sound of some kind, its precise meaning depending on the source of the sound. When birds are referred to, it means "to scream," as the eagles and herons do. When dogs are the source of the sound, it means "to bark or bay." If things such arrows in a quiver are being talked of, klazein means "to clash or rattle." If the wind is spoken of, it means "to whistle." If people are referred to, the verb means "to shout or scream." It would be difficult to coin a word that has in it more of the element of sound than does Klaxon.

Later, Mary Lou reads a short piece of text from her book. As she does so, the listener can hear how each piece tells a little about a bird and gives it a personality. “Hi, my name is Ossie the Osprey,”she begins. “I live in rivers, lakes, and coastal waterway.” She then continues with the next bird. “Hi, I'm olivia the Owl,”she reads,“I give six deep hoots.” The book is beautifully illustrated and both easy and interesting for children to read. The additional advantage with Mary Lou's book is that it is also educational. It is unusual for a young girl to feel so strongly about a hobby. Has bird-watching changed Mary Lou at all? In many ways, it has not changed her in the least; she still plays with her brother and sister and does the things that other children do. But since she became so involved with birds, something about her is slightly different. She explains in her own words: “Now I observe more of the world than I did when I was younger. I feel more attached. I feel that everything around me is important. I look at everything I can, because it might be something different that what I think it is.” This young birdwatcher and author now knows that things are not always what they appear to be. Each new thing she sees might be something exciting and different. For this curious young ‘Bird Girl，’everything might just be another chance to learn something new! よろしくお願いします。

The color of the Indian the writer believes is peculiar to himself and while his cheek-bones have a very striking indication of a Tartar origin his eyes have not. 著者が思っているインディアンのカラーは特別です。そのうえ彼の頬骨は目にはないとても印象的なタタール系の特徴があります。 Climate may have had great influence on the former but it is difficult to see how it can have produced the substantial difference which exists in the latter. 気候がインディアンに大きな影響を与えるのかもしれません。しかしタタール系に存在する多くの違いをどのように生みだすことができるのかを知ることは難しいのです。 The imagery of the Indian both in his poetry and in his oratory is oriental; chastened and perhaps improved by the limited range of his practical knowledge. 詩と修辞の両方においてインディアンのイメージは東洋的です。鍛錬されていて、たぶん実際の知識の限られた範囲で磨かれています。 He draws his metaphors from the clouds the seasons the birds the beasts and the vegetable world. 彼は、雲、季節、鳥、獣、野菜の世界から隠喩を用いています。 In this perhaps he does no more than any other energetic and imaginative race would do being compelled to set bounds to fancy by experience; but the North American Indian clothes his ideas in a dress which is different from that of the African and is oriental in itself. これにおいておそらく、彼は他のあらゆる情熱的で想像力に満ちた民族と同じように、経験によって幻想を制限しようとしているにすぎません。北アメリカのインディアンの衣服以外のアフリカ人とは異なる装いに対する考え自体が東洋的なのです。

英語がほんと苦手で、長文を読むとき文中に出てくるwhichやthatが、その後ろに続く部分をどこまで含んでいるのかよく分かりません。 thatの中にさらにthatやwhichなんかがあるときなんかはもう何が何だか分かりません。 ,や；や：みたいな記号が現れたときは、基本その場所で文が切れている（その前までが修飾部分）と考えていいんでしょうか？ またそれ以外に、これが出てきたらそこで確実に文章が切れている、という語や記号があれば教えてください。 また、下の文章では＜＞で囲んだthatを関係代名詞だと考えたんですが、（違ってたら指摘してください）皆さんはどこからどこまでが関係詞節だと考えますか？ （文章はアルクの英辞郎から適当に拾ってきたものです） Another reason for not lending is the bank regulation which states ＜that＞ the total assets of the bank must equal 8% or more of the amount of a particular loan before it will lend the money, and it is often said of banks that "they will lend you an umbrella when the sun is shining, but take it back when it rains." First of all, in reponse to the passage in the November article which said ＜that＞ the photographs of the "oil-soaked sea birds" and the "oil spills" (New York Times, January 26, 1991) which appeared during the Gulf War were not the results of Iraqi military but of UN military air strikes, the ambassador stated, "That's not what happened at all. In short, it is a book which proves ＜that＞, fundamentally, human beings have an ugly nature and it becomes particularly visible in people in public office where there is no competition.
