時制は有力なヒントになりうる

 

〔基礎編〕次の文を訳せ。(時制に注意を払うこと)

1. ※Washoe was said to have acquired more than fifty deaf language signs.
※雌のチンパンジー
2. Although I am by no means rich, and never shall be, I have never been poor in the sense of wondering where the next meal is coming from.

3. I bought my watch about three months ago. I assumed that the more you paid for a watch, the better the watch you got.

 

 

〔応用編〕少し長めの文で力を試してみよう。

Sulka dusted and polished and sang for a year, and in the spring of 1965, gave birth to their first child, a daughter. She and Elsie lived together in the sunny California house.

※begonia:a kind of plan
