さて今日は、英語で考えるとはどういうことか、を見て、
そして実際英語で考える、ことをしてみましょう。
次の単語を英語で説明してください。
001 ache 痛み [名詞]
003 ambassador 大使 [名詞]
004 applicant 志願者 [名詞]
006 anchor 錨(いかり) [名詞]
015 applaud 拍手する [動詞]
What is an ache? と子供に聞かれました。
その問いに答えるには定義を考える必要がありますね。
そしてこの、定義を考えることこそ、英語で考えること
そのものなのです。
☆ Well, ache is a continuous pain that is not sharp, for example the pain
you feel after you have used part of your body too much.
といった感じです。そういう観点から、もう一回、これまでの15問を復習
してみてください。そして、少しでも、1つでも、英語で考える、英語で答え
られるようになりましょう。この練習を積み重ねると、だんだんと「英語で考
える」に近づけます。頑張ってくださいね。
初級から、一挙に中級、上級へ飛ぶ感じですが、
一つだけ、気に入ったのを覚える、って感じなら出来ますよね。
これまでの問題は、実はこのための準備だったんです。
定義から単語を出すクイズ形式に対応するだけでは、
あまり力はつきませんが、この逆をすることで、
英語らしい表現、英語の思考回路を身につけることが出来ます。
頑張ってみましょう。
