The area of england known as the lake district is in the northwestern corner of the country,just below the border with scotland. It is an area of outstanding natural beauty. With its wild hills dotted with small farmhouses and sheep,and its crystal clear lakes,it attracts thousands of tourists every year,both from britain and abroad. But the spectacular scenery is not only attraction. The lake district is associated with two of britain's best-loved writers:William Wordsworth, the nature poet,and Beatrix Potter,the creator of Peter Rabbit. Both these writers drew their inspiration from the natural beauty of the lake district.

イギリス国民全体の適切な呼称は何でしょうか？

ふと気になったので質問させていただきます。イギリスは近代にウェールズ・スコットランド・アイルランドなどを併合し、自国の国土としました。元来イギリス王国の呼称は England だったと思いますが、イングランド外の領土及び国民の事をないがしろにしているということで、 Britain、また正式呼称 United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland から U.K. という呼称を一般的に使うようになっていると思います。しかし England から UK となったように、イギリス国民のことを表す Englishman よりも適切な言葉が分かりません。 British、Britというのも思いつきましたが、これは Britain の人々ということで北アイルランド人から不評を買う呼び方だと思います。 Newsweek などを読んでいると Briton をよく見かけますが、ブリトン人というと余計限定的な呼び方のような気がしまして……。連合王国全体のことを UK と呼ぶように、連合王国民全体のことは何と呼べばいいのでしょうか。

as its name suggests, the area of england known as the midlands is in the middle of the country. this area used to be the heart of britain's manufacturing industry. the most important city in the region is birmingham,england's second city. at its peak in the 19th century,birmingham was the world's greatest industrial city,producing goods that were sold in britain's colonies and in other countries all around the world. the midlands,and birmingham in particular,1980s. the area lost around one third of its manufacturing jobs. the midlands played a very important role in the industrial revolution. one of the most famous towns there is shrewsbury. this was where british industrialists built the word's first iron bridge. another large town in the area is stoke-on-trent,the centre of britain's pottery industry. in fact,the district including stoke-on-trent and the five towns that surround it became known simply as "the potteries."the high-quality clay used to make the pots came from devon and cornwall in the southwest of england. the fuel used to fire the pottery kilns was coal,whch was easily available in the extensive local coalfields. in fact,the area became the largest pottery-making centre in the world in the 19th century. but it was a dirty and dangerous place to live. the smoke from the pottery factories covered everything with a layer of thick black soot. local workers suffered both from the soot and the dust that came from making the pots. living conditions were bad,and life expectancy was short. arnold bennett,the famous 19th-century novelist,memorably described life and work in the potteries in his novels such as clayhanger and anna of the five towns. the area is,of course,no longer the world's largest pottery centre. most british people now buy cheaper pottery imported from many different parts of the world. but there are still some very famous and old-established companies in the region that produce expensive,high-quality goods. these include such famous names as royal doulton,royal worcester,spode and wedgwood. wedgwood pottery is perhaps the best-known style of british pottery in japan. it has many designs,but the company's delicate and elaborately ornamented blue and white designs are especially famous. the company was founded by josiah wedgwood in 1759. wedgwood was not only a great designer,but also a man of science. he designed a device to measure the temperature of pottery kilns,and he was also responsible for developing revolutionary new glazes for his pots,which are still used today.

manchester is the undisputed "capital" of the north of england. whereas london's wealth was based on trade and finance,manchester's was built solidly on manufacturing. the north of england was the home of the industrial revolution,and manchester was its most important city. it had been an important textile-weaving centre since the 14th century. in the 18th century,however,the textile industry there boomed. this was the result of the combination of cheap cptton imported from the american colonies and the invention of mechanized weaving technology. workers began to flood into the city to find jobs in the new industries. the city became much richer,but living and working conditions were often terrible for the new industrial workers. they had to work from early morning till late at night in dirty,dangerous conditions. they lived in dark,cramped houses,which were squashed together in long rows. it is not surprising that many of the social reform movements in 19th-century britain started in manchester. manchester contineed to be economically successful into the 20th century. it had access to cheap cotton supplies from britain's colonies,especially india. the colonies also formed a huge market for manchester's manufacturedgoods. however,manchester was heavily bombed and badly damaged in the second world war. after the war,britain's manufacturing industries declined,and manchester's economy suffered very badly. unemployment rose,and the city lost much of its energy and dynamism. the city was bombed again in 1966,this time by the IRA,in protest against britain7s policies in northern ireland. much of the city's business centre was destroyed. this led to a huge program of rebuilding. the centre of manchester is now full of modern architecture,parks,and public spaces,as well as many bars and restaurants. it is a very different place compared with the old industrial city. in recent years,manchester has become famous for two things:music and soccer. during the 1980s,manchester was the home of a unique music scene,producing bands such as joy division,the happy mondays,and more recentry,oasis. it was also the place where huge dance clubs and the accompanying "rave" culture first sprang up. like many large british cities,manchester has two professional soccer clubs,manchester united and manchester city. of these,manchester united is the more famous. along with real madrid,it is plobably the best-known and most widely supported club in the world. the club has dominated english soccer for the last 20 years or so,and is rich enough to buy many of the world's best players. in 2004,the club bought the teenage genius,wayne rooner,at a cost of ￡27 million,after selling david beckham to real madrid the previous year.

下記の訳を知りたいです。長いですがどなたかよろしくお願いします。 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/country_profiles/1038758.stm ↑下記の文章が載っているHP United Kingdom country profile The United Kingdom is made up of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. It has a long history as a major player in international affairs and fulfils an important role in the EU, UN and Nato. The twentieth century saw Britain having to redefine its place in the world. At the beginning of the century it commanded a world-wide empire as the foremost global power. Two world wars and the end of empire diminished its role, but the UK remains a major economic and military power, with considerable political and cultural influence around the world. Overview Overview／Facts／Leaders／Media Britain was the world's first industrialised country. Its economy remains one of the largest, but it has for many years been based on service industries rather than on manufacturing. Despite being a major member of the EU, the country is not part of the euro zone, and the question of whether it will join any time soon appears to have receded for the moment. The government has said a series of economic criteria must be met before the issue can be put to a referendum. In recent years the UK has taken steps to devolve powers to Scotland and Wales. The Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh and the National Assembly for Wales in Cardiff opened in 1999, and the possibility of devolution for the English regions has also been discussed. In Northern Ireland, after decades of violent conflict, the Good Friday agreement of 1998 led to a new assembly with devolved powers, bringing hopes of lasting peace. The assembly was suspended in 2002 amid a row over alleged IRA activities. Its suspension was to last for three and a half years. In a bid to restart the political process and after consultations with Dublin, the UK passed legislation paving the way for the recall of the Northern Ireland Assembly in May 2006. But assembly leaders missed a November deadline to form a power-sharing executive. Assembly elections in the following March led to the eventual swearing-in of the leaders of the power-sharing government on 8 May 2007, ending five years of direct rule from London. Diversity The UK is ethnically diverse, partly as a legacy of empire. Lately, the country has been struggling with issues revolving around multiculturalism, immigration and national identity. This is against a background of concerns about terrorism and political and religious radicalism, heightened after the suicide bomb attacks on London's transport network in 2005. Some politicians and commentators say a stronger sense of shared British values is needed to foster integration within a mixed society. And while some advocate tough policies on limiting immigration, others attempt to put the case for it as a positive force. One of the more recent trends in migration has been the arrival of workers from the new EU member states in Eastern Europe. Culture The UK has been at the forefront of youth culture since the heyday of the Beatles and Rolling Stones in the 1960s. It has a rich literary heritage encompassing the works of English writers such as William Shakespeare and Charles Dickens, Scot Robert Burns, Welshman Dylan Thomas and Northern Irishman Seamus Heaney. Traditional music has deep roots across the UK, which has also produced classical composers from Henry Purcell in the Baroque period to Benjamin Britten in the 20th century.

the cotswolds are a range of limestone hills running through the counties of somerset and gloucestershire in the southwest of england.("wold"is an old english word meaning "hill".) this area is one of the most-visited parts of england because of its rural beauty. the gentle,rolling slopes of the cotswolds make it an ideal place for sheep farming. sheep were the basis of the region's former prosperity. between the 14th and 16th centuries,the local wool merchants became very wealthy. evidence of this wealth can still be seen in the many beautiful old manor houses and churches there. the cotswolds are also famous for their picturesque villages. the buildings are almost all built of the local limestone,which ranges in colour from a silvery grey to a deep golden brown. visiting the cotswolds is like a trip back into the past. this is mainly because the industrial revolution did not really affect the region,and so it was able to preserve its characteristic atmosphere of mediaeval england. it is certainly a different world compared with the hustle and bustle of london,manchester and other major english cities. one of the most important towns in this area is bath,which is unique in being the only town in britain with a hot spring. the spring in bath had been known from ancient times. the first people to build actual baths there,however,were the romans. after the romans left britain in the 5th century,the baths fell into disuse. they were revived in the 18th century,when rich people in london learned about the health-giving properties of the water. it suddenly became very fashionable to have a house in bath. as a result,many rows of beautiful town houses were built. the characteristic shape of these rows is a kind of semicircle,known as a crescent. bath is still one of the most visually attractive cities in britain,and the roman baths are the most-visited tourist attraction outside london. unfortunately,it is no longer possible to take a bath there yourself. a similar city to bath is cheltenham,a little further to the north. in the 18th century a spa was also discovered there,but not a hot one. just as with bath,people from high society (including　king george III)visited cheltenham to drink the waters,which were believed to cure many illnesses. cheltenham also has many elegant 18th-century houses, where rich people and aristocrats used to stay. apart from its architecture,one of cheltnham's main attractions nowadays is horse racing at its beautiful race course.

Early in the history of the country,the Japanese developed an amazing talent for saiku or"delicate craftsmanship".As the Japanese became more skilled at this talent,it branched out into other parts of Japanese life and turned into a powerful impulse to reduce things down to their essence―not just as miniatures that could be viewed and admired,but as fully functioning accessories and devices.It evenaffected the language.Overall,this reduction,born from saiku,moved toward increased convenience and usefulness. 長めですが翻訳お願いします。サイトは使わないで:

英文の翻訳を早急にお願いします！英語に自信のある方！ London is not only England’s and Britain’s, capital city; it is also one of the most multi ?racial, cosmopolitan cities in the world. A quarter of schoolchildren in London do not speak English at home. Instead, they speak an Asian language such as Punjabi, Urdu, Gujarati, Bengali or Chinese; a Middle Eastern language like Arabic or Turkish, or another European language such as Greek, Albanian or Spanish. A recent poster (see above) celebrating London’s diversity claimed that 300 languages were spoken by the 7 million residents, who followed 14 different faiths, or religions, between them. In parts of some other towns, it is easier to hear a language other than English spoken. In Bradford, in the north, or in parts of England’s second biggest city, Birmingham, in the West Midlands, you are more likely to hear a south Asian language. About three adults in ten admit they have prejudice against people of a different skin colour. In one recent survey of 1500 people, more than half said they believe Britain is a racist society; but more than half also said they believe it accepts people of different races more easily than it did ten years ago. It is interesting that some people from former colonies feel more comfortable as devolution increases. Some were scared of the Union jack, a symbol of the British Empire. They feel more comfortable now that English people are choosing to fly the red and white flag of St. George. The other countries of Britain also have their own flags; and some families who have always been British do not speak English as their first language: Wales is officially a bilingual country and 20% of Welsh people speak Welsh. 翻訳サイトを使わないで、翻訳していただけると助かります。

以下の文を至急翻訳お願いします！今週中にどうしても知りたいです。よろしくお願いします！ Ireland is a rather small country with a population of just under four million people. But in the United States, there are around 40 million people that claim to have Irish blood. There are also many people of Irish ancestry in Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. How did the Irish come to be so spread out around the world? Since joining the European Union in 1973, Ireland has become a very prosperous country. Before that, however, Ireland was always one of Europe's poorest countries. The Irish were often forced to leave their country to look for work. Many left in the middle of 19th century,when disease hit the Irish potato crop. Potatoes were the staple food of the Irish. Many were faced with the choice of either leaving their homeland or starving to death. Among those that left Ireland at this time was a man called Kennedy. He settled in Boston, the city with the largest Irish population in the U.S., where he become a saloonkeeper. His son ,Joseph,grew up to be a millionaire and U.S. ambassador to Britain. His son,John F. Kennedy, became President of the United States. Today about 40 million U.S. citizens claim Irish ancestry. Irish-Americans can boast at least three U.S Presidents: John F. Kennedy,Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton. Irish-Americans are very proud of their roots. Many become interested in tracing their family history,and even travel to Ireland to visit the place where their ancestors lived. Ronald Reagan,who was Irish on his father's side, made an official visit to Ireland in 1984. While he was there, he took the opportunity to visit the home of his ancestors in Country Tipperary, in central Ireland. Irish-Americans like to keep the traditions of Ireland alive. The cities with the largest Irish-American populations―Boston, New York, and Chicago―have many Irish pubs, where you can drink Guinness, Ireland's famous dark beer, and listen to live bands playing traditional music on instruments such as violins, whistles and bagpipes. The best-known day in the Irish calender is March 17th. This is St. Patrick's Day, the day that commemorates the saint who brought the Christian religion to Ireland. In these and many other cities, this day is marked by large parades, music, dancing and street parties. The national colour of Ireland is green, and so on St. Patrick's Day celebrations are bigger and noisier in North America than in Ireland itself. The Irish community in Tokyo also organizes a St. Patrick's Day parade, which goes along Omote Sando.

This is because Ireland is such a green isle or island that it is like the green jewel called the emerald. The countryside of Northern Ireland has gently rolling hills. Everywhere there are small white farmhouses, and these farms produce rich milk, butter and cheese which are famous in Europe. 北アイルランドは２つの面を持っています。一方で、北アイルランドは数多いヨーロッパのうちで美しい地域です。アイルランドは、エメラルド島という愛称で呼ばれている。これはアイルランドがエメラルドという緑色の宝石のような緑の島に似ているからです。北アイルランドの田舎は丘が緩やかにうねっている。至る所で小さく白い農家があり。農場では濃い牛乳、バター、それにチーズが生産され、これらはヨーロッパでは有名です。
