2008年度版一日一題 --- 1

新潟大や島根大では基本的な英作文が出題されます。また、群馬、鳥取、琉球では今後2年次編入の試験で出題される可能性があります。その対策もかねて、しばらくは英作文を出題します。

下線部の日本語を英語に訳しなさい。

    In her biography, Marie Curie is quoted as having said: "私は,科学には大いなる美があると考えている人間の一人です。Scientists in their laboratories are not only technicians; they are also children placed before natural phenomena which impress them like a fairy tale." To attain great scientific beauty, scientists must have pure, honest hearts.
