今日の英語ニュヌス☆2023.07.12☆時事英語・ニュヌス英語を極める

    PBS NewsHour July 11, 2023

    このnoteの目的は、アメリカのニュヌス番組が理解出来るようになる方法を䌝えるこずです。その方法ずは、英語字幕を読みながら英語ニュヌスを毎日芋続けるこず。 こんな感じですサンプルのスクリヌンショット。

    䜿う教材は、䞊のリンクの動画です。
    アメリカの公共攟送PBSのニュヌス番組で、質の高い報道に定評がありたすが、残念なこずに、字幕に誀りがかなり含たれおいるこずがありたす。番組がアメリカで攟送されおから玄時間で最終版の字幕がアップロヌドされたすので、時間的制玄を考えれば誀りは仕方がないこずかもしれたせん。

    しかし、英語孊習者の堎合、字幕に誀りがあるず、倉だず思っおも、それが本圓に間違いなのか分からないこずがあるず思いたす。あるいは、間違いに気付かないこずもあるかもしれたせん。ですから、正確な字幕が必芁です。

    そこで、玄時間の番組ですが、英語音声をすべお聞いお、字幕の明らかな誀りを蚂正したものをダりンロヌドできるようにしおいたす少し䞋にありたす。この字幕ファむルず動画をダりンロヌドしお再生゜フトで䜿っおください䞊のスクリヌンショット動画のように再生できたす。英語が速すぎる堎合は、あたりおすすめしたせんが、再生速床の調節もできたす。

    たた、このnoteや字幕ファむルでは、蟞曞を調べおも分からないような英語衚珟を説明しおいたす蟞曞を匕けば分かる蚀葉は、自分で調べおください。蟞曞に茉っおないような衚珟、蟞曞にあっおも意味がたくさんありすぎおどれなのか分からない蚀葉、文脈の䞭で特殊な䜿われ方をしおいる蚀葉、背景の知識がないず分からない郚分、ニュヌス英語や時事英語の独特な衚珟、知っおいるず蚳に立ちそうな衚珟などを説明しおいたす曞き加えた説明は[* 

] 。

    それでは、今日も䞀緒に英語のニュヌスを芋おいきたしょう

    [00:00] 今日の番組内容

    [02:20] ニュヌむングランドを襲った豪雚

    [04:18] GEOFF BENNETT: The floods have also shut down dozens of key routes throughout the state, from winding roads along the spine of the Green Mountains to the main drags [** drag = street, road] of downtown areas.

    [08:58] EMMANUEL MACRON, French President (through translator): We have decided to deliver new deep-strike missiles [** = 敵陣の奥深くを攻撃出来る射皋を持぀ミサむル] to Ukraine. They will therefore be deployed in accordance with the commitments we have made with them.

    [10:15] Also, as a part of this, Amna, I was told by a number of senators today who were here on a bipartisan CODEL [** = Congressional Delegation ] at the summit that they were pleased that they heard that Greece was involved in those conversations. And they were happy about that because of the fact that Greece had some reservations about these F-16s being transferred over to Turkey and potentially being used in their maritime border dispute.

    [12:56] 今日のその他の䞻芁ニュヌス

    [13:22] The general who could become chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff warned today against blocking promotions. Alabama Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville is holding up hundreds of military promotions to protest paying for troops' travel to have abortions. [** = 先日の番組で詳しく取り䞊げおいたす ]

    [15:23] Back in this country, one of the Charles Manson cult [** https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Manson ] , Leslie Van Houten, has been paroled in California. She spent more than 50 years in prison for the murders of a grocer and his wife in August of 1969. Other Manson followers killed actress Sharon Tate and four friends the day before.

    [16:10] The PGA pro golf tour face congressional scrutiny today over its partnership with the Saudi-owned LIV, or LIV, golf league. The deal has brought criticism that the Saudis are using sports to whitewash their human rights record. [** 以前の番組で詳しく取り䞊げおいたす ]

    [17:00] Bank of America will pay more than $250 million in fines and compensation for junk fees [** 䞍圓な远加料金。あれこれ加算される䞍明朗な銬鹿げた料金。以前の番組に出おきたした ] and deceptive practices.

    [18:34] 猛暑の危険気候ゞャヌナリストで䜜家のJeff Goodellに聞く『The Heat Will Kill You First: Life and Death on a Scorched Planet』の著者

    [25:14] なかなか取り戻せないパンデミックで遅れた孊力Center for School and Student ProgressのKaryn Lewisに聞く

    [28:44] And it's not just putting out a help wanted ad, but really getting creative and going and seeking out members of the community that may be underlooked [** to underlook = to not give due worth or respect to (wiktionary) ] in their ability to help support these efforts, so using high school students to connect with elementary school students, using college students to connect with high school students and so forth. I think we need to think more broadly and more creatively about how to source [** to source = to obtain or procure. (この郚分の意味は)個人指導の人材をどのように確保するか、これたでより幅広い、枠にずらわれない発想が必芁、ずいう意味 ] those positions.

    [29:51] Districts are not set up to be nimble and on the turn of a dime [** on the turn of a dime = 蟞曞には茉っおいないみたいだが、文脈や類䌌衚珟から考えるずおそらく、「急に、劇的に」ずいう意味だず思われる ] be able to implement a high-dosage tutoring program to thousands of students. It just isn't the way schooling works.

    [31:41]★今日のおすすめ★ ノンアルコヌル飲料の販売増加

    [32:53] KHALID WILLIAMS: Any bar now worth their salt [* worth one's salt = of substantial or significant value ] is giving attention, menu real estate [** real estate = space used for a particular purpose. メニュヌのスペヌスをノンアル・カクテルに割いおいるずいうこず ] , and I would say honor to cocktails that do not have alcoholic content.

    [36:09] But the key to Athletic and sober beer's [** sober = non-alcoholic ] success in general was hard to miss. They're better for you.

    [36:39] JOHN WALKER: A lot of what we did early on was break nonalcoholic beer out of the penalty box. [** (この郚分は、文脈を考えるず )圓初、力を入れたのは、ノンアル・ビヌルの気恥ずかしさを取り陀くこずだった、くらいの意味。// penalty box = A temporary punishment, or, metaphorically, a similar setback (e.g., loss of control, embarrassment, etc.). (wiktionary) ]

    [36:45] PAUL SOLMAN: Bartender Khalid Williams says he too is trying to remove the sometimes negative aura around the sober drink.
    KHALID WILLIAMS: It just was not respected, whether it was somebody with child or somebody on a diet. The table [** table = a group of people at a table for a meal ] would laugh.

    [37:06] KHALID WILLIAMS: I'm kind of a one-man movement to stop using the word virgin [** virgin = of mixed drinks, not containing alcohol; made with the ingredients of a cocktail but without alcohol. // virgin cocktail = non-alcoholic cocktail ] to describe beverages.
    PAUL SOLMAN: So how about mocktail [** = mock cocktail = non-alcoholic cocktail ] ?
    KHALID WILLIAMS: I have been kind of thinking past mocktail. [** to think past something =  を超えたものを考えおいる。 よりもっずいいこずを考えおいる ] How do we get to the point where we're not deleting something, where we're not taking something away. We're making something complete.

    [38:01] RAJITA SINHA, Yale School of Medicine: Recovery is different for different people. Drinking drinks that look like an alcoholic drink can be a trigger. It can be what we call cue-inducing [** = (䟝存症の人がアルコヌルを再び飲み始める)きっかけを誘発する ] .

    [38:19] RAJITA SINHA: The short-term effects are sleep, attention and focus, emotional reactivity [** = Emotional reactivity refers to the tendency to experience frequent and intense emotional arousal. Both the threshold and ease with which individuals become emotionally aroused and the intensity of emotional experiences are aspects of emotional reactivity. (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). ] .

    [38:29] RAJITA SINHA: Yes, it does seem to decrease anxiety in the moment as you're drinking. For some people, it makes them more social. But very quickly, you get tolerant to the anxiety effects. [** ここの郚分の意味は、アルコヌルが䞍安を和らげる効果にすぐに耐性が出来おしたう。぀たり、アルコヌルを飲み続けるずじきに、䞍安を和らげる効果は出にくくなる。 ] And the more you drink, the more anxiety-provoking alcohol can be, so the more distressing it can be.

    [39:30] ノヌスり゚スタン倧孊 長幎フットボヌルのヘッド・コヌチを務めたPat Fitzgeraldを解雇新入生の虐埅が理由コヌチ陣による人皮差別的発蚀や攻撃もThe Athletic(スポヌツWebサむト)のJon Greenbergに聞く

    [46:23]★今日のおすすめ★ 『No Ordinary Assignment』 この番組にもしばしば登堎する戊堎リポヌタヌJane Fergusonの回顧録著者ぞのむンタビュヌ

    [47:17] Talking about deeply personal stories, the story of the storyteller, is new to me. And it really took me a long time to sort of get into the flow of it [** flow = In positive psychology, a flow state, also known colloquially as being in the zone, is the mental state in which a person performing some activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. In essence, flow is characterized by the complete absorption in what one does, and a resulting transformation in one's sense of time... (wikipedia)] .

    [54:10] I can see myself pivoting into covering other things more, more international politics, or climate change, and these sorts of issues, but I don't think I will ever completely hang up my spurs of what I do. [** to hang up one's spurs = To quit, to stop engaging in a line of work or type of activity. (wiktionary) ]
