謎の男が消えた理由とは -主人公のAlexは展示会の準備のためにイタリアに-

‘People go there. The chapel – well, it’s a ruin now. Not many people live up that end of the valley any more.’ ‘Mm,’ I say. ‘There’s a story about that place,’ she says after a second.（前回の終わりの部分です） ‘Tell me!’ Lena’s stories are always good. It’s Lena who tells me about the people in the town, and the things that happened when she was young; and about the strange white house high up on the far side of the valley, where Signor Ferucci lives, and hardly ever comes out. ‘Well – maybe on the way back home. Now have a good look, and fix it in your mind so you can picture it when I tell you.’ I do so, staring at the distant building, frowning with concentration. Lena smiles. ‘Right, that’s enough. Let’s go.’ I jump down from the bridge and trot along beside her. ‘What’s the story?’ I say. She clears her throat the way she does when she’s going to tell me something. ‘Well now. Like I told you, the chapel there isn’t used any more. I don’t know when they built it – maybe hundreds of years ago, for all I know – but now it’s a ruin. And it was a ruin thirty years ago, when I was a girl.’ We walk on in silence for a few yards, while she orders her thoughts. ‘But for a long time, back then, it wasn’t quite deserted. There was a hermit, you see, who lived there.’ ‘What’s that?’ ‘A hermit?’ ‘Mm.’ ‘He’s a man who lives all alone. They’re supposed to be monks, though I don’t know if this one was. Maybe he was just a tramp, or a gypsy; but because he lived in the chapel people began to think of him as if he was a holy man. He lived there for – oh, many years.’ ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。この英文は回想シーンだと思われます。 I don’t know when they built it – maybe hundreds of years ago, for all I know の最後のfor all I knowの個所がわかりません。forはどのような用法ですか？ He’s a man who lives all aloneとHe’s a man who lives aloneはどのような違いがあるのでしょうか？ They’re supposed to be monks, though I don’t know if this one was.のI don’t know if this one wasの個所は、この人が修道士かどうかわかりませんが、という意味ですか？教えてください。お願いします。

After a moment’s hesitation, he sits down on the flat rock beside me. ‘What were you thinking about?’ Now it is my turn to hesitate. I have become used to what to say to my parents, but perhaps this is not the right thing to say to Jamie. I look at him, and his brown eyes are interested, not suspicious. I say, ‘I was thinking with Lena.’ ‘Who’s Lena?’ (前回の終わりの部分です） ‘She’s our cook. And she looks after me, sometimes.’ He nods, and I am encouraged by the way he accepts what I’ve told him. ‘We’re going for a walk up that way, and we see a bridge, and a chapel where a man used to live. A hermit,’ I add. ‘He went away, though, into the hills.’ Jamie is frowning. ‘When?’ ‘When what?’ ‘When do you go on the walk?’ I am thrown into confusion. I don’t want Jamie to know that I used to be a liar, but the conversation is becoming like the ones I used to have – back then, when I was a liar – with my parents. I don’t know what to say. But Jamie is still looking at me, his face open and waiting for me to say something, and in the end I just say it. ‘Just now.’ ‘This morning?’ ‘Just now. Before you came.’ Suddenly I want him very much to understand. ‘That was what I was doing. Staring into space.’ ‘You mean you were imagining it?’ ‘No …’ ‘What, then?’ It is the tone of his voice that makes the difference: not impatient, just curious. I try to find the words. ‘You know when – you go somewhere—’ He nods. ‘And then you come back.’ Now he is looking puzzled. ‘What, like a walk?’ ‘Yes,’ I say. ‘Like that. That’s what I was doing.’ He is quiet for a time, then he says, ‘So you’d gone with Lena and then you came back and then you came here and I found you?’ ＊That’s what I was doing.のThatは斜体になっています。 ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。この英文は回想シーンだと思われます。 ‘That was what I was doing. Staring into space.’ ‘You mean you were imagining it?’ ‘No …’ ここのやり取りの意味が掴めません。「それは僕がしていたことだったんだ。空間を見つめていたんだ」「それを想像していたっていうこと？」「違うよ」？？教えてください。お願いします。

We stare at our glasses until they are warm in the sun, and not so nice to drink, but we can’t find out the answer; in the end, the little beads of liquid vanish as mysteriously as they arrive.（前回の終わりの部分です） He wants to know why the rock in the sides of the valley is arranged in layers like a stack of sandwiches, even where the farmers haven’t cut terraces. Lena has told me about terraces – that they are to hold the rain for the olive trees – and shows me how water runs down the sloping street next to the church but gathers in puddles on the church steps, an idea I grasp quickly. But she has never told me about the hidden sandwiching of the rocks, and when I ask her, she only shrugs and says that is just the way they’re made. Jamie wants to know everything about Altesa. He quizzes me on everything he notices or can think of: about things, and places and people. I tell him all about me, and what I like and don’t like. I tell him about my family – things which I don’t really know myself but have in turn been told – like when we used to live in a different place. London. My parents still talk about it sometimes. He makes me tell him about the people – the figures he’s seen around town, the other children, our neighbours. I pour out all of Lena’s patchwork history of the town while he sits, attentive, soaking it up again. And I tell him the things Lena doesn’t know, or doesn’t like to mention: like Lucia being a witch. Like Signor Ferucci. ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。この英文は幼い頃の回想シーンです。 He wants to know why the rock in the sides of the valley is arranged in layers like a stack of sandwiches,～のlike a stack of sandwichesの個所がいまいちイメージできません。どんな感じなのでしょうか？ Lena has told me about terraces – that they are to hold the rain for the olive trees – and shows me how water runs down the sloping street next to the church but gathers in puddles on the church steps, an idea I grasp quickly. の最後にan idea I grasp quickly（私が素早く掴んだ考え）とありますが、これはどういうことを言っているのでしょうか？英文の最後にこの言葉がついているのがわかりません。 I tell him about my family – things which I don’t really know myself but have in turn been toldの中のin turnとは”順番に”という意味ですか？順番に話されたもの？ I pour out all of Lena’s patchwork history of the town while he sits, attentive, soaking it up again.の中にあるLena’s patchwork history of the townとは、Lenaのパッチワークの町の歴史、ですか？どういう意味でしょうか？最後のAnd I tell him the things Lena doesn’t know, or doesn’t like to mention: like Lucia being a witch.

Well, hardly ever.’ ‘Have you ever seen him?’ Jamie asks. ‘Well, sometimes. In town. He’s got a beard and he looks a bit scary. He’s really tall.’ ‘Is it a mad beard – like, all wild?’ ‘No,’ I say, slightly surprised. ‘No, it’s neat.’ ‘Oh.’ ‘Nobody knows what he does in there,’ I add. ‘Lena says—’ There’s a pause. I concentrate very hard on not going away from Jamie. He doesn’t always mind it when I do, but sometimes I sense that he is a little worried. Lena’s word comes drifting back to me. ‘Lena says he’s – recluse,’ I say. ‘What’s that?’ ‘Someone – someone who doesn’t like to come out.’ ‘Why?’ ‘I don’t know.’ ‘Maybe he’s a vampire,’ Jamie says. ‘Yeah.’ I think for a moment, and something else comes back to me. ‘I think he used to be that other thing,’ I say vaguely. The word hits. ‘Politician.’ Jamie says, ‘I’ve got a whole story about vampires from a haunted tomb in one of these.’ He indicates the several stacks of comics that are lined up against the wall of his room. ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。この英文は幼い頃の回想シーンです。 But there’s a big white house, and it’s got a wall all round, high up, and gates.

‘Lena?’ ‘Yes?’ ‘Do you think Signor Ferucci’s a hermit?’ Lena shakes her head. ‘No. Just someone who keeps themself to themself.’ ‘Oh. All right.’ （前回の終わりの部分です） We walk on in companionable silence and, in my head, impressions of the hermit whirl, becoming confused with details Lena has mentioned until the church in which the man crouches has an interior like a cave, with rock walls and stalactites and bones, while at the entrance blazes a bonfire, sending up a column of smoke that alarms the distant townsfolk. Alex? comes a voice out of nowhere, sounding somehow bigger than the valley around me, and----- And the afternoon tumbles away from me and--- ‘Alex?’ Jamie says. I blink. ‘Hello,’ I say. He is crouched next to me. ‘Are you OK?’ ‘Yes,’ I say. ‘I didn’t hear you.’ ‘You were like you were asleep,’ he says, ‘but your eyes were open. I could see them. I kept calling you but you didn’t move.’ ‘I was thinking,’ I say. Saying this, I have found, usually works. ‘It was weird.’ I shrug. ‘I was just thinking,’ I say again. After a moment’s hesitation, he sits down on the flat rock beside me. ‘What were you thinking about?’ Now it is my turn to hesitate. I have become used to what to say to my parents, but perhaps this is not the right thing to say to Jamie. I look at him, and his brown eyes are interested, not suspicious.

小説で意味がわからない箇所があります

たびたびですが、また小説でわからないところがありまして。お願いします。交際を父親に反対されている女性（某王女）とその恋人の会話で、 "Let's both calm down before you become the virgin princess in the tower. Maybe if we're stubborn enough over time, we'll wear him down. What if I go to talk to him?" Parker suggested cautiously. "You don't know him," she said somberly. "He won't see you, and we won't wear him down. He believes in what he's doing." She sounded lighthearted for a moment then, and giggled. "And by the way, I'm not a virgin." "I won't tell if you don't," he laughed. この最後の文ですが、don'tのあとに何が省略されているのかわからず、意味不明です。お分かりの方よろしくお願いします。 ※読んだ小説はDanielle SteelのH.R.Hです。サスペンスかと思っていたら恋愛小説でした。比較的読みやすく、何とか読み終わりました

Now he is looking puzzled. ‘What, like a walk?’ ‘Yes,’ I say. ‘Like that. That’s what I was doing.’ He is quiet for a time, then he says, ‘So you’d gone with Lena and then you came back and then you came here and I found you?’ （前回の終わりの部分です） ‘No,’ I say, surprised he doesn’t understand. ‘I was with Lena and then you called me and I came back. I heard you say my name.’ ‘But I saw you. You were right here.’ He isn’t laughing at me and he isn’t angry with me. His voice is steady and serious, as though he has found something that must be examined until it makes sense. He doesn’t sound like he cares if it takes him all day. ‘I was with Lena too,’ I say. ‘You mean like a dream?’ ‘No.’ Dreams are all fuzzy, blurred, strange; they aren’t real. ‘When you go somewhere. Like up the valley with Lena.’ ‘You make it up?’ ‘No. Like now, like I’m here with you.’ ‘I don’t understand,’ he says. I can’t think of anything else to say to make it clearer. He sits there, still frowning slightly, thinking it all through. Then he says, ‘Can you go anywhere?’ ‘Sure.’ ‘Like the moon?’ He sounds suddenly excited. ‘Oh. No. Just – places in the valley. With Lena, or the town, or the garden.’ ‘Oh.’ Another pause. ‘Anywhere in the valley, though?’ ‘Just places I know,’ I say, and at that there is a sudden sense that something heavy has shifted – just a little – in my head, moving reluctantly, trying to accommodate what I’ve just said. The questions Jamie is asking aren’t ones anyone’s ever asked me before. I haven’t asked them to myself either. They feel like they’re prodding at me, searching, trying to find me out. ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。この英文は回想シーンで幼なじみのJamieと話しているところです。 He doesn’t sound like he cares if it takes him all day. の意味がよく掴めません。 itはsomething that must be examinedですか？it takes him all dayとはどういうことなのでしょうか？ ‘When you go somewhere.

"It's Alex," I say. "Alex. How's Italy?" His voice sounds very far away; a bad connection, perhaps. "It's fine." "And the house and so on? Everything sorted out all right?" "Well---" I say. "Not yet. I mean, there's---" "Is it legal stuff?" he breaks in. "You don't need to worry about that kind of thing. You've seen the attorney there?" "Yes," I say. "I got the key from him yesterday. I was going to call in again on my way back. But it's not that. It's--- the place is really run down, Max." I grope for a way to explain it to him. "I mean, it's a terrible mess. I don't think anyone would touch it the way it is at the moment." "Oh," he says. "Yes. I see. Are there structural problems?" "I don't know. I don't think so. I mean, the verandah--the one my mother had---well, that's all rotted at one end. And the chimney's broken loose. From the stove. I think a storm did that. I've hardly had a proper look---I'm going to do that today. There are bound to be other things as well. I mean, there's a window broken in the room where I slept, and the garden's---the garden's awful. It needs work doing on it, that's all.

On one of the bookshelves is a small black case, lined with worn red velvet, in which Jamie keeps his clarinet. He’s played it to me several times. Once school starts, his parents are going to find him a new teacher here, and he’ll learn new pieces, and play those to me as well. （前回の終わりの部分です） ‘Here. This is the Silver Surfer. You’ll like him. And here’s Spiderman. You know him, of course.’　 I nod, unable to confess that I don’t – that I have never before seen the red and blue masked figure that leaps towards me from the page Jamie is holding open. He tells me how Spiderman was normal until he was bitten by a radioactive spider; he points things out, tells me who each of the characters is, passes me other comics to compare. I sit, entranced, while the bright colours and vivid panels of the cartoons accumulate around me, until I am like an island in a pool of brilliantly hued pages. ‘You can borrow them, if you like,’ he says. ‘Take them home to read.’ ‘Thanks!’ I say, but then I realize something. ‘What is it?’ he asks. ‘I – nothing.’ ‘Tell me.’ ‘I can’t read the words,’ I say. ‘I can help you with the long ones,’ he says. ‘No – I mean, I—’　 ‘Can’t you read at all?’ he asks. He sounds shocked, but I know he won’t laugh at me or be unkind; he is just amazed that I can live without this essential ability. In a flash of understanding, I look around me at the room and see why he might think this. ‘My dad's teaching me,' I say. ‘Oh,' he says. For a moment he seems at a loss. Then he says, ‘I suppose what you do – you know, the going places in your head – that's like reading stories, isn't it?' ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。この英文は幼い頃の回想シーンです。 I nod, unable to confess that I don’t – that I have never before seen the red and blue masked figure that leaps towards me from the page Jamie is holding open.の中の、leaps towards me from the pageというのはどういう意味ですか？ページから私の方へ飛んで行く？？ I sit, entranced, while the bright colours and vivid panels of the cartoons accumulate around me, until I am like an island in a pool of brilliantly hued pages. のuntil I am like an island~は「僕が鮮やかな色のページの中のプールの中にある島のようになるまで」ですか？？意味がよくわかりません。 In a flash of understanding, I look around me at the room and see why he might think this. の最後のthisは何を指しているのでしょうか？seeは”想像する”という意味ですか？教えてください。お願いします。

There was a line of like 30 people for the men's room and a 5 year old who clearly was about to pee his pants. Mom was insisting he come to the ladies room with her but he wasn't having it. I said "want me to walk him in?" And I took him by the shoulder and started shoving through and he says "I really have to go!" So I picked him up by the armpits and yelled "coming through" and these 30 drunken hockey fans parted like the red Sea. By the time I got to the urinal the kid already had his dick out and was immediately peeing. I had no idea what to do at this point so I just held him there until he was done and shook him up and down when he finished. He lifted his pants, I swung him over to the sink, then set him down and we walked out. shook him up and downとswung him over to the sink, then set him downの意味を教えてください。よろしくお願いします

My eldest son is a 33-year-old heroin addict and has been since he was 19. It’s a horrible addiction, and at his lowest point last year he stole over $30,000 from his grandmother (my mother). Now he’s in jail facing felony charges. I’ve visited him twice, and he seems clean, which makes me happy, but my problem is that my mother wants me to help him when he gets out, and I don’t see how I can. He’s been “clean” so many times before, and he’s stolen from almost all of his family members, and I just don’t know how to trust him again. I also don’t know how long his sentence will be. He can’t stay with me; I live in a small loft with no doors and I’m very private. I let him stay once before when he was clean, but he thought I was too strict. I’m getting a lot of pressure to help him get back on his feet, and I’m being berated for not supporting him in his “time of need.” I don’t want him to be released with nowhere to go, however. I can’t afford to help him get an apartment, though my mother thinks I should. Am I a terrible parent for saying no? We live in Texas, where there are not many affordable resources. ここでのresourcesとは何のことでしょうか？よろしくお願いします

‘You’re weird,’ he says eventually. I blink. But then he says, ‘I like you, though.’ And my heart skips once, and feels as if it is grinning inside me. ‘I like you too,’ I say. ‘And wouldn’t it be great if you could go anywhere, just in your head – the moon or Mars, or different planets?’ I have never thought about this either. ‘I suppose,’ I say. (前回の終わりの部分です） ‘I’d love that.’ He looks entranced with the possibility. ‘Do you like comics?’ ‘I don’t know.’ ‘I’ve got some great ones. They’re in English, though,’ he adds, doubtfully. ‘But I speak English,’ I say, surprised. It takes me a moment to remember that Jamie is a foreigner, like me. Astonished, I switch from the way we have been talking – the way I talk with Lena – to the other way I talk, when I’m with my parents. ‘Can you speak like this?’ Jamie looks just as astonished, but he answers the same way. ‘Yes. My father’s English.’ ‘Mine too,’ I say. ‘And Mummy,’ I add, remembering. Suddenly he begins to laugh – a little at first that quickly grows into a great uncontrollable peal that rings against the side of the valley. He points at me, helplessly, and then at himself, and I understand immediately what he means – We’re such idiots! – and the funny side of it strikes me, too. I can’t help it; I join him, laughing harder and harder until my sides hurt and there are tears in my eyes. I can’t think of a time when I’ve laughed harder. At last we quieten down. Occasionally we look sideways at each other and giggles overwhelm us again; but in the end we are too tired to laugh any more. We sit side by side with big, idiot grins on our faces. ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。この英文は回想シーンで幼なじみのJamieと話しているところです。二人のやり取りが正確にはよくわからないのですが、 I’ve got some great ones.

My boyfriend is wonderful and kind and a great listener and very engaging with me, but actively is bored by all of my friends. He’s been willing to accompany me on various trips/meals with friends, but usually ignores people and tells me how bored he was afterwards. It means a lot to me to have him involved in various parts of my life. I don’t ask it of him often (I know he’s very introverted), but having him come just to be a downer is maybe worse than just not having him along. All my friends want to meet him and to become friends with the person who has made me tremendously happy for the last couple years, but on the off chance we do all get together, he basically just looks at his hands! Is there some way I can get him to interact in a nontaxing way? 1　ここでのengagingは「愛嬌のある」でしょうか？ 2　having him come just to be a downer is maybe worse than just not having him along.の和訳を教えてください。 3　nontaxingはどのような意味でしょうか？以上、よろしくお願いします

I almost laugh at the convolutions of it all. Alone in a room, trying not to laugh, not allowing myself to think of the girl showering just behind the wall, filling my head with her casually piled suitcases instead. Mad Alex, Jamie would have said.(前回の終わりの部分です） I like him the moment I see him: the way he is staring at the distance, the way he is alone in the garden, the way his face seems to be looking out and at the same time lost in something inside him. Physically we are quite different. Jamie is a year older than me, and taller. While I have my father’s straight fair hair, Jamie’s hair is dark and a little wavy. He is shaped differently, too: where I am rather stocky, he is slender, and he is never as clumsy or awkward as I am. Even before he sees me, and speaks to me, I like him. In my childhood, all is confusion for a time, and then out of this confusion I begin to make sense of my world. Jamie helps me with this, sees things I don’t, asks the questions I can’t, until between us – eventually – we manage to piece together the whole picture. The focus shifts and sharpens and sense and understanding happen. But most of that is still to come. I am six, and Jamie’s parents move into the house at the other end of the row from ours. ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。（この英文は回想シーンだと思われます） the way he is staring at the distance, the way he is alone in the garden, the way his face seems to be looking out and at the same time lost in something inside him.の個所は、the way～のフレーズが続きますが、 the way he is staring at the distance（彼が彼方を凝視している仕方？）とthe way his face seems to be looking out のbe looking out の部分が進行形になっているのはなぜなのでしょうか？ the way his face seems to be looking out and at the same time lost in something inside him・・・・・彼の顔が外を見ているようで、同時に何か彼の内に夢中になっているように見える仕方（様子）？　lostは形容詞ですか？ he is never as clumsy or awkward as I amの、clumsyとawkwardの違いがよくわかりません。どちらも不器用な、というような意味だと思うのですが、どういう違いがあって二つの単語をわざわざ使っているのでしょうか？ Even before he sees me, and speaks to me, I like him. 彼が私に会う前、そして私に会う前でさえ、私は彼が好きです？ちょっと意味が掴みにくいのですが、どういう事を言っているのでしょうか？ Jamie helps me with this, sees things I don’t, asks the questions I can’t, until between us – eventually – we manage to piece together the whole picture. のuntil between us はどう訳すのでしょうか？私たちの間になるまで？？ we manage to piece together the whole picture.私たちはなんとかすべての絵をつなぎ合わせます？とは、どうことを言っているのでしょうか？なんとなく、見た世界のものを理解していく、というような感じでしょうか？ But most of that is still to come.について、still to comeで、まだ来ない、という意味になるのでしょうか？否定形になる？教えてください。お願いします。

和訳をお願いします！ I think that he’s an incredible dreamer, incredibly naïve, he’s incredibly smart in what he wants to be smart at he’s one of those guys that knows ten thousand little things but doesn’t know much about one big thing and it was really fun, it was really fun to read and... Again there was something inspiring about it, there was something child like about it. There was something oddly brave about it and the thing that was very cool about the part to me was that he’s a simple guy and in his simplicity he doesn’t over think the world. And so he just lets the world happen to him and I think that that’s a blessing a lot of the time. ある俳優のインタビューです。自分の役柄について聞かれ答えているのですが、どうしても意味が理解できないんです。。。長文ですが宜しくお願いしますm(_ _)m

Once I see one with two tails, lighter than the rest of its body; it lives somewhere near where the wall adjoins Signora Cassi’s house, and I wonder if it has been caught in the kitchen by Lucia.（前回の終わりの部分です） I go along to the end of the wall, and laboriously find footholds and handholds to help me clamber up. I peer over the top, and for a moment I don’t see him, he is standing so still. The garden here is, again, larger than ours, and sunnier as well. There aren’t so many trees, and some angle of the valley side seems to have positioned the lawn so that it catches the evening sun straight-on. The doors and windows of the house, all around the ground floor, are open, and I can hear voices – a man and a woman – inside. There are some of the boxes that came from the van, standing on the edge of the grass, waiting to be taken in. I let my attention wander around the garden, and it is now that I see him: in the shade of a tall purple bush in the border, standing with his hands in his pockets, looking upwards towards where the valley crest reaches the skyline. For a second I think he is looking right at me, but then I see the faraway expression on his face, and know he hasn’t seen me. We stay like that for some time more, he staring at the horizon, I staring at him, like children frozen in a fairytale. Then my foot slips a little, and the sound reaches him, and he shivers and sees me. He looks at once wary, but almost as quickly the wariness vanishes and is replaced by curiosity. He glances towards the house, once, then runs across the garden until he’s standing below me. ****************************************** 主人公のAlexはartistで、展示会に備えるために、幼い頃過ごしたイタリアに戻ってきています。（この英文は子供時代の回想シーンだと思われます） There are some of the boxes that came from the van, standing on the edge of the grass, waiting to be taken in.のbe taken inは、家の中に持ち込まれる、という意味ですか？ Then my foot slips a little, and the sound reaches him, and he shivers and sees me.の中でhe shivers and sees me.とありますが、彼が震えたのは（he shivers）、我に返った、みたいな感じですか？ He looks at once wary, but almost as quickly the wariness vanishes and is replaced by curiosity.の中のas quicklyのところは、as quickly as の意味ですか？できるだけ早く？教えてください。お願いします。

He's such a jerk! He had me on lock down and was accusing me of fooling around all this time but, all along it was him. How could I be so blind? And I don't understand how he could be so selfish and shallow. How can I be the psycho one when him and his friend made up a whole new name for them selves? Thank you again ◯◯ for understanding. I don't know how to thank you enough.
