PRACTICAL CHALLENGE! ～実践チャレンジ～
英語で下記の内容を表現してみよう。必ず声に出して練習しよう。
自分が主人公になったつもりで表現しましょう。
あなたは友人から「仕事を辞めた」と打ち明けられました。もちろん彼は生活のために新しい仕事を探さなければならないはず。なぜ辞めたのか、どんな仕事に就くことができるのかを聞いてください。
例えば「そうなんだ。どうして仕事を辞めたの？生活のためのお金を得るために別の仕事を見つけなくちゃいけないと思うな。君はどんな仕事に就きたいの？」くらいでしょうか？
[英語で表現してみよう]
使用表現例
job : 仕事
money to live on : 生活のためのお金
SIMPLE ANSWER
to have enough money は find another job の「目的」を説明しています。 to live on は enough money の説明。「それで生きていくための」。ちなみに another は「別の・もうひとつの」。「ほかの」を示す other に an がついて「決まらないほかのひとつ」。まだ就いていない仕事は特定のモノに決まる訳ではないので another がピッタリ。
