Lesson 6 Technology as Trash 1 As the morning rain stops in Accra, the capital city of Ghana, and the sun heats the humid air, 時 a terrible-smelling black smoke begins to rise above the vast market. Past the vegetable and tire 過ぎた QI merchants is a scrap market filled with piles of old and broken/electronics waste) This waste, consisting of ある 山のような broken TVs, computers, and smashed monitors is known as "e-waste." 割れた 2 ① Further beyond the scrap market / are many small fires, fueled by old automobile tires, which are burning away the plastic covering from 燃料を 焼きおとす。 148573 valuable wire in the e-waste. People walk through the smoke—a highly poisonous mixture of かなり chemicals with their arms full of brightly-colored computer wire. Many of them are children. plastic wire covet 2 Israel Mensah, twenty, explains how he makes his living here. Each day scrap sellers bring loads of old たくさんの Q2 electronics. Mensah's friends and family buy a few computers or TVs and break them apart to remove バラバラにする valuable metals and wires, as well as other parts that can be resold.) Then they burn the plastic covering off 焼きはらう. the wire and sell it to replenish their supply of e-waste The key to making money is speed, and safety is Litko ignored here. "The gas goes to your nose, and you feel something in your head," Mensah says as he ながら knocks his fist against the back of his head. "Then you get sick in your head and your chest." Broken ただく computer and monitor cases are thrown into a nearby lagoon, and the rain will wash them into the ocean the next day. 3 Uncontrolled burning, disassembly, and disposal) cause a variety of environmental problems such as the ast pollution of the atmosphere, groundwater, and coastal seawater. Inevitably, the pollution leads to direct and indirect damage to the health conditions of the people who must live and earn their living in those polluted areas.

4 E-waste is being produced on a scale (never seen before.) Computers and other electronic equipment ② B become obsolete in just a few years, leaving customers with little choice but to buy newer ones to keep up./ ~せざるを得ない Thus an enormous amount of electronic equipment like computers, TVs, and cell phones is discarded each year. 5 Unfortunately, in most of the world, the bulk of all this waste ends up in landfills, where it poisons the 「汚染する environment e-waste contains a variety of toxic substances (such as lead, mercury, and arsenic that leak Q3 into the ground. Recycling is in many ways) the ideal solution to the problem, and the fact that e-waste contains significant amounts of valuable metals such as silver, gold, and copper makes it attractive to かなりの recycle. Theoretically, recycling gold from old computers is far more efficient and less environmentally destructive than digging it from the earth. Practically, however, the cost of recycling is larger than the 大地 profit from it, and the recycling system of the world can't dispose of all of the e-waste safely. The result is [that a large percentage of e-waste that is dropped off from recycling systems in wealthy countries is sold and こぼれ落ちる diverted to the developing world.] As e-waste increases in quantity) worldwide, it poses an increasing threat そらす 」もたらす。 to the health of people living there. 6 E-waste is not a newly born problem. To address the problem of the international trade in 対処する e-wast aste 170 nations signed the 1989 Basel Convention/more than twenty years ago, and one agreement requires that 調印する developed nations notify developing nations of hazardous waste shipments coming into their countries.] Then six years later, due to the pressure from environmental groups and developing nations, the agreement was modified to ban hazardous waste shipments to developing countries. However, this agreement has not been fully enacted yet.

7 The world continues to produce electronic products, and all of them will become e-waste. It is out of the question to ship scrapped e-waste to developing countries, but developed countries export secondhand computers and mobile phones (as recycled items to developing countries. Even though those items are usable for a few years, all of them will be thrown away (as trash)in the very near future and cause further pollution. It could be said that this export is in a way) a shipment of e-waste to developing countries. ] ある意味 Q1 Unless developed countries make efforts to construct domestic facilities that can dispose of their own e-waste efficiently, we won't be able to stop the increasing e-waste problem in developing countries. In order to promote this shift, an infusion of financial resources and international collaboration in the transfer of disposal technology are essential. 8 Ultimately, shipping e-waste overseas may actually come back to harm the developed world Jeffrey Weidenhamer, a chemist at Ashland University in Ohio, bought some jewelry made in a developing country) Pewelrym d/but: for his class to analyze. It was distressing that the jewelry contained high amounts of lead, but not a great surprise, as jewelry with lead has turned up before in U.S. stores. More revealing were the quantities of ので 意味深い etals (such as copper and tin mixed in with the lead.) Weidenhamer argued in a scientific paper that the proportions of these metals suggest that the jewelry was made from recycled computer parts:)_____ 9 Since the developed world is sending large quantities of materials (containing lead to developing nations. is to be expected that those countries will make use of them in their manufacturing processes.) "It's not at all surprising that that things are coming full circle and now we're getting contaminated products back, says 一周回って戻る Weidenhamer. In a global economy, it's no longer possible to get rid of something by sending it to other countri ntries: This is a problem each of us living in this electronic age has much to do with.

10 Not only companies and governments but also consumers in developed countries are responsible for the Q2 problem of e-waste. When we use electronic equipment, we must be aware that it will possibly become toxic 50% waste and threaten health conditions of children in developing countries unless governments or the electronics industry/recycle and dispose of it safely. Fortunately we consumers have the power to change Q3 the policies of governments and the electronics industry by demonstrating our will through our purchase and votes.

下の英語長文のhowの部分の訳し方について質問です。（空欄→whatです） how their resolutions compare with the previous year's behavior. の部分を、「どのように彼らの決断は前年の行動と比較するのか」と訳したのですが、不自然になってしまいました。解答は、「どのように〜と"比較されるか"」となっていたのですが、なぜcompareが能動なのに、受動で訳されるのですか？（確かに、能動で訳すと上記の私がしてしまったような訳になってしまうので不適切だと思うのですが） 英語を読んでいて、もし能動で訳して変な場合は受動で訳しても良いということなのでしょうか？ 教えていただけると助かります。

no 比較級 than に関する質問です。 My right leg does no more work than my left legs. この文章を「私の左足が働かないのと同様に、私の右足も働かない」という風に訳したのですが、 正解は、「私の右足は左足と同じ量の仕事しかしていない」というものでした。 「A is no 比較級 B than C is D」で、「CがD"でない"のと同様に、AもB"でない"」というように否定で訳すやり方で学んでいたため、上記の訳し方がよく分からなかったです。上記のように否定文として処理できないものもある、と参考書には書いてあったのですが、そのようなものはどのように見分ければ良いのでしょうか？また、その際の訳し方も教えていただきたいです。 下に、上記の英文と同じように否定で訳せない文（CがDでないのと同様にAもBでないと訳せない文）を例として記載しておきます。 Ben is no worse than anyone else. ベンは他の誰とも変わらない The new model is no heavier than the previous one. その新しいモデルは旧来のものと同じ重量しかない This capsule is no bigger than the head of a matchstick. このカプセルはマッチ棒の大きさしかない 長文失礼致しました。詳しく教えていただけると助かります。

至急お願いします！ 下の英文についてです。 to communicate 〜を形容詞的用法として使えない理由として、解説には 「名詞 to do （to 以下に名詞の欠落なし）の形で『〜な名詞』と読むことができるのは、①名詞とto VがS V関係になっている場合と ②名詞がtime やplaceなどの特殊なものである場合のみだ」 と書かれているのですが、よく分かりません。 別の問題では、文中で the power to destory the whole of humankindや、the ability to speak Englishのように、S V関係が成り立たないにも関わらず「不定詞の形容詞的用法」としているものがあります。これらは、前文で挙げた②に該当するため、形容詞的用法でもありなのでしょうか。 長文すみません。 教えていただけると助かります。
