Do you know that all human beings have a "comfort zone" regulating the distance they stand from someone when they talk? This distance varies in interesting ways among people of different cultures and is nearly always unconscious.
Greeks, Arabs, and South Americans usually stand quite close together when they talk, often moving their faces even closer as they warm up in a conversation. By and large, North Americans find this awkward and often back away a few inches. Studies have found that tend to feel most comfortable at about 21 inches apart. In much of Asia and Africa there is even more space between two people in conversation.
This difference applies also to the closeness with which people sit together, the extent to which they lean toward one another in conversation, and how they move as they argue or make an emphatic point.
Although large numbers of North Americans prefer a relatively wide "comfort zone" when talking, they do communicate a great deal with their hands━━━not only with gestures but also, surprisingly enouth, with touch. They can be observed putting a sympathetic hand on a person's shoulder to demonstrate warmth of feeling or an arm around them in sympathy, nudging a man in the ribs to emphasize a funny story, patting an arm in reassurance or stroking a child's head in affection; they readily take someone's arm to help them across a street or direct them along an unfamiliar route. To many people━━━especially those from Asia━━━such body contact is unwelcome. Southern Europeans and Latins, on the other hand, are inclined to view North Americans as cold fish because they gesture and touch so little.

>>617 最初の文はMy father stopped smokingの間違いって解釈していいの? しかしこの問題は目的語か修飾語(この場合は副詞句)は関係あるけど 補語がどうこうっていうのは関係ないんじゃないか?
ここからは俺の説明を書くけど間違ったとこがあれば誰か訂正してね。
一般に動詞の目的語になる場合to不定詞の名詞的用法と動名詞があるけど stopの目的語になるのは動名詞でstop 〜ingである。しかしどうしてMy father stopped to smoke. って文になってるかというと、この場合の to smokeはstopの目的語ではなく to不定詞の副詞的用法「〜するために」であり、このto smokeがstopにかかる副詞句(修飾語)だからである。 だからMy father stopped to smokeは「父はタバコを吸うために立ち止まった」であり、 My father stopped smokingは「父はタバコを吸うのをやめた=禁煙した」である。

>>690 onlyだけで「ただ一人の」という意味はないと思います。 I love only you. 「あなた一人だけを愛す」という風にはなるけど。 ちょっと春めいた例文ですが・・・「私たちだけね」という時に We are alone.またはWe are all alone. という風に言うことができます。主語weについて補語にaloneだけを 単独で使うことが出来ます。これに対してonlyは上でも書きましたが 単独では使えません。It is only us.みたいな感じで、後(あるいは 直前)に修飾する名詞または形容詞・副詞などが来ます。

>>699さん 696です。ご指摘感謝です。なるほどそうかもしれませんね。 でも、aloneに「寂しい」というニュアンスを付与するのは 日本人に多い解釈の偏向じゃないかなと思うことがあります。 例をあげますね。 学校の教師が、クラスの生徒の行動を描写していて例えばこう言った とします。 Tom has a good leadership skill and is well liked by both boys and girls. Mary and Beth get along well and they together form a click. Randy is a loner. He always stays alone even during the recess. lonerというのは社会的スキルが乏しいというニュアンスがありますが aloneというのは、ただ他の人と離れて自分ひとりでいるという事実を 描写しているだけじゃないかと思います。 そこで、つい「寂しさ」という感情を付与してしまうのは、みんな波風 立てずに周りに合わせることを是とする日本人ならではの解釈の癖なの ではないかなと思います。

>>745 It's so different from the world which I am living in. となります。関係詞でつながれている複文は、二文に分割して考えると わかりやすいです。この文を二つに分けると。 @It's so different from the world. AI am living in the world. となります。先行詞であるthe worldという名詞句が、前置詞を補うこと なく第A文の中に納まりますね。つまり名詞の代わりをする関係詞なので 関係代名詞whichが正しいのです。この問題が次のような問題だったと すると解答が異なってきます。 It's so different from the world [ ] I am living. 上の文と異なる点が、前置詞inが抜けている点だということに気づいて ください。この文を上でしたように二つの文に分けると、第一文は 同じなのですが、第二文が A’I am living in the world. と前にinを補わないといけなくなります。このin the world全体は 「この世界の中で」という意味で、動詞am living「生きている」を 修飾しています。このin the worldを一語で表すとthere「そこで」 という副詞になります。このように関係詞が示している部分を、 前置詞+名詞の形、すなわち副詞句の形で補わないと第二文ができない ときに関係副詞を用いるのです。
訳お願いします。英語のニュースなんですけど訳せと宿題で・・・。 TOKYO - The formation of a new Japanese oil company, Inpex Holdings, was announced on Monday. The result of a government-orchestrated merger between Inpex Corp and Teikoku Oil, the new firm appears to have been conceived as a "national policy corporation" designed to secure supplies for Japan from abroad. The government believes that the combined firm's greater size will better serve this purpose. But strong government backing could be a double-edged sword for Inpex.
TOKYO - The global automotive industry is on the verge of a historic transition, as Japanese auto giant Toyota, now reaping a massive payoff from its prescient mid-1990s bet on hybrid technology, is set to become the world's No 1 auto maker in terms of vehicles produced, probably by the end of the year.

これの和訳をしていただけると非常にありがたいです。明日までなので汗 Humans first appeared on earth four million years ago. Since then, we have invented lots of things. As a result, our lives have become much easier and happier. Some inventions are simple,like cups and pencils. Others are not that simple, like telephones and radios. And still others are very complex and beyond the imagination of people who lived a hundred years ago : computer games, car navigation systems, digital cameras. These inventions have become part of our daily life, and we do not usually think about them. Recently, however, a New York writer did think about inventions.He invited over one hundred well-known people to answer the question : "What is the most important inventions of the past?" Some of their answers may surprise you. The most popular choice was the printing press which was invented by Gutenberg in the fifteen century. It has enabled us to spread knowledge and information all over the world. Today we can hardly think of life without books, newspapers, and magazines. Other popular choices were the computer and the Internet. Thanks to these inventions, we can communicate with people all over the world quickly and easily. The computer and the Internet cannot work without language, and this was another popular choice. Several people chose progress in medicine. The sick can receive medical care in hospitals, and operations when needed. We now enjoy longer lives than before. Some people were more interested in ideas than in thing; they chose democracy, educations, and human rights. How can we think of today`s world without them? とりあえず前半のせて、すぐに後半のせます。 ヨロシクお願いします。
You may wonder if all of these inventions have improved our lives. Actually, progress in technology can have bad effects. For examples,we have to destroy forests in order to produce the paper for the printing press. The computer and the Intenet have brought us into the Information Age. However, now our privacy may be in danger because other people have easy access to information about us. Progress in medicine has enabled us to live longer, but it is not without its dangers. Accidents in hospitals are reported almost every week. Not everyone in the world can enjoy the good effects of inventions. Good hospital care and easy access to the Internet are enjoyed in the developed world, while many of the developing countries are falling futher behind. We cannot think only about the wonders of technology. What is important is to keep their danger under control, and to find ways to share these wonders with all the people of our world.Some of the things and ideas selected as the greatest invention were very interesting. Here are some examples. One person chose the easer because it allows us to correct our mistakes. A science writer chose the mirror because we can see ourselves in it as others see us. In this way, it encourages self-awareness. A psychologist chose reading glasses because they allow people to read into old age have prevented the world from being ruled by people under forty. What is interesting about these choices is that they require imagination and a sence of humor. After all, we humans need a sence of humor, don`t we? I don`t know who invented it, but how does anyone get through life without it? This is Richard Freedman from New York.
