今日の英語ニュース☆2023.10.30☆時事英語・ニュース英語を極める

PBS News Weekend Oct. 29, 2023

週末版の字幕はいつも間違いや省略が非常に多いのですが、今日は、比較的少なかったので字幕ファイルを作りました。

オリジナルの字幕は大文字表記のものを使いましたが、一度すべて小文字に変換してから使いましたので、今日の字幕ファイルは小文字表記になっています (書き加えた部分などは一部大文字) 。
比較用に、訂正前のオリジナルの字幕もアップロードしておきます。

動画サイトの週末版の字幕は、翌日以降に比較的正確なものに差し替えられるようです。

このnoteや字幕ファイルでは、辞書を調べても分からないような英語表現を説明しています(辞書を引けば分かる言葉は、自分で調べてください)。辞書に載ってないような表現、辞書にあっても意味がたくさんありすぎてどれなのか分からない言葉、文脈の中で特殊な使われ方をしている言葉、背景の知識がないと分からない部分、ニュース英語や時事英語の独特な表現、知っていると訳に立ちそうな表現などを説明しています(書き加えた説明は[* ……] )。

それでは、今日も一緒に英語のニュースを見ていきましょう!

[00:00] Introduction

[01:57]★今日のおすすめ★ ‘No safe place’ for Palestinians in Gaza as Israel steps up ground operations

As the Israeli military sends more ground troops into Gaza, desperation is growing among residents of the besieged Palestinian enclave as they seek safety and limited aid supplies. Displaced Palestinians who have been told to evacuate say they have nowhere to go. Meanwhile, the war is also displacing Israeli citizens near the Lebanese border. Leila Molana-Allen reports.
《イスラエルとハマスの戦い23日目; "We reached a state where we wish we had died under the rubble just to find some rest. Our life is torture"; expanded ground operations inside gaza; 》

[02:41] At this United Nations warehouse in Khan Yunis, it was every man and child for themselves. The U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees called it a sign of breakdown in civil order, after three weeks under siege.

[** < every man for himself = Everyone has to fight for his or her own survival ]

[04:24] Jake Sullivan: Hamas is making life extremely difficult for Israel by taking civilians as human shields and by putting their rocket infrastructure and terrorist infrastructure among civilians. That creates an added burden for Israel. But it does not lessen Israel's responsibility, under international humanitarian law, [** 以前の番組に出てきました ] to distinguish between terrorists and civilians and to protect the lives of innocent people, and that is the overwhelming majority of the people in Gaza.

[05:58] News Wrap

In our news wrap Sunday, co-stars and fans are mourning the death of actor Matthew Perry, former President Trump vowed to reinstate his Muslim travel ban if elected in 2024, the death toll from Hurricane Otis rose to 43 in Mexico, multiple people died in shootings across the U.S., and Lewiston residents attended services and vigils to grieve the victims of Wednesday’s mass killing.
《The White House responded quickly, calling Trump's ban vile and un-American; so far this year, there have been 577 incidents in which four or more people have been shot. that's nearly two a day; 》

[07:54] After overcoming his addictions, Perry wanted to support others on their journey to sobriety, in 2013 converting his Malibu beach home into a sober living facility.

[** < sober living house = Sober living houses (SLHs), also called sober homes and sober living environments, are facilities that provide safe housing and supportive, structured living conditions for people exiting drug rehabilitation programs...

[10:38] Why pharmacy workers are going on strike amid widespread store closures

Finding a neighborhood pharmacist is becoming more challenging. Over the past two years, CVS, Walgreens and Rite Aid have either closed or announced plans to close hundreds of stores. At many of the remaining locations, worsening working conditions have led to unannounced walkouts by pharmacy workers. Tom Murphy, national health writer for the Associated Press, joins John Yang to discuss.
《薬局の閉店が相次ぐ中、営業しているところの多くでストライキ; その背景とは; Tom Murphy, national health writer for the Associated Press; they're stressing is this isn't about money. they're not seeking more pay. they just need more help behind the counter; they've been stressed, especially by all the vaccines; chain stores tend to operate with one pharmacist on duty instead of having overlapping shifts or multiple pharmacists on duty; 薬剤師ストライキ》

[14:28] Instead of a drugstore being a few blocks away, a pharmacy desert [** desert という言葉のこの意味の使い方は以前の番組にも出てきました …砂漠 ] in rural areas is considered a drugstore that's maybe five miles away.

[15:42]★今日のおすすめ★ What some states are doing to improve privacy for your personal data

Data brokers make money off of your personal data, including your real-time location and spending habits. These companies say the information allows service providers to personalize their products, but privacy advocates say it's collected without permission and not properly secured. Now, more state legislatures are acting. John Yang speaks to privacy counsel Emory Roane to learn more.

[21:58] How Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF is changing with the times

For generations of children across America, going trick-or-treating on Halloween has meant more than just collecting candy for themselves ? it's also meant collecting coins for children in crisis around the world. Ali Rogin reports on how Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF began and how it's changed.
《ハロウィンはキャンディーを集めるだけじゃない; UNICEF募金の機会。その起源と変遷; Michael J. Nyenhuis; Michael Nyenhuis; It all began around 1950 when a Philadelphia school teacher and her husband, a Presbyterian minister, got the idea to turn trick-or-treating into charity.
