By 12:30 they had passed through the trenches that had been abandoned by their defenders earlier in the day. At around 15:00 the two regiments of the 1/4 Brigade gathered on the hill overlooking Tutrakan itself. Meanwhile, the Kmetov Brigade also advanced, though not as quickly and with greater disorganization. Parts of it reached the northern end of the forest at 13:00 and immediately attacked the Romanian trenches, but it was only at 15:30 that the trenches were occupied, most of the defenders having already pulled out due to the success of the 1/4 Brigade and the artillery bombardment. By 17:30 the brigade reached the hill overlooking the town.

About fifteen years ago a little girl was sitting in a rusty wheelchair outside the central hospital of Maputo, the capital of Mozambique. The girl had no legs and she was perhaps ten years old. Her name was Sofia. Today, Sofia is one of my closest and dearest friends.（１No one has taught me as much as she about the conditions of being human. ）Nor has anyone taught me more about poor people's unprecedented power of resistance－－those who are forced to survive at the bottom of society in a world we all share and inhabit :so unjust and brutal. It was early in the morning. Sofia and her sister were running along a small road in her village. Sofia knew very well that she and her sister should keep to the road. There was something she called （２earth crocodiles） buried in the ground by the side of the road and they could snap at you. The girls were running. Children play, as it is their given right, and they forget, which is also their given right. With her right foot Sofia accidentally stepped to the side of the road. She put her foot on a land mine. However, （３the mine had been placed in the ground in such a manner that the major part of the explosion that followed was directed at her sister Maria, ）who died instantly. Sofia was brought to the hospital, drenched in her own blood. The doctor who took care of Sofia when she arrived at the hospital said, "Since she was so seriously damaged, we were hoping that Sofia would die along with her sister. Her legs torn apart, her chest blown to pieces, everything." Yet Sofia survived. She had greater strength than the entire military industrial complex that tried to take her life, which continues to hold the poor hostage, the poor who cannot defend themselves （４on equal terms. ）Within her body and mind Sofia carried with her the strong will to ( 5 ) of the poor people of the world. Today, Sofia has become a symbol all around the world of the resistance against the usage of land mines. For many young people, she has become a heroine. She is a heroine for me as well. When I saw Sofia walk with her new artificial legs, I experienced profound happiness in my life. At that very moment I also claimed what would later be my, as well as Sofia's, motto in life. "It is never too late! Everything is still possible!" In an instant her life was blown apart, but she resisted and she fought back. Nothing could defeat her. What Sofia brings me is hope, hope for the future. Her （６indomitable） spirit cannot be broken. 問題 １．下線部(1)を日本語に直しなさい。 ２．下線部(2)と同じものを具体的に表す語句を本文中からそのまま抜き出しなさい。ただし、単複数の別は問わないものとする。 ３．下線部(3)を日本語に直しなさい。 ４．下線部(4)の意味として最も適切なものを選びなさい。 (1)対等に (2)条件付きで (3)仲良く (4)同じ用語で ５．空所(5)に入れるのに最も適切なものを選びなさい。 (1) learn (2) walk (3) resist (4) play ６．下線部(6)の意味として最も適切なものを選びなさい。 (1)impossible to discourage (2) having an optimistic view of life (3) independent-minded (4) very friendly and helpful ７．本文の内容に合うものを2つ選びなさい。 (1)About fifteen years ago, the author visited the central hospital of Maputo to see one of his closest friends, Sofia .

英文構成法（五訂新番P102.例文４）に次の英文があります。 You can depend upon me to finish it by Monday. 私は「to finish it by Monday.」の主語はYouだと思い、 「あなた（You）が月曜日までにそれを終わらせるために私を頼ることができる」 と訳しました。つまり、「depend uponの目的＝me 」と考えたのです。 しかし、英文構成法の著者は、「to finish it by Monday.」の主語をmeとし、 「私（me)が月曜日までにそれを終わらせる」として、 「大丈夫、月曜日までには仕上げますから安心してらっしゃい」と訳しています。 著者は、「depend uponの目的＝me to finish it by Monday.」と捉えたのだと思います。 私の質問は、２つあります。 １）「to finish it by Monday.の主語」が、何故Youではなく、 me なのか？ ２）「depend uponの目的」が何故meではなく、me to finish it by Monday.なのか？ どうぞよろしくお願いします。
