【設問】
Ⅲ 次の文章を英訳しなさい。
人間の心と顔の表情の関係は，一般的なイメージ以上に込み入っている。顔は心を写す鏡だと言われるが，「ポーカーフェイス」という言葉もあるように，いつもそうであるとは限らない。実際，顔の表情を変えることが心を動かすこともあると示唆する研究もある。もしそうならば，口角を少し上げるだけで，前向きな気持ちになれるかもしれない。
【解答例】
The relationship between facial expressions and emotions is more complicated than we generally imagine. It is often said that the face is a mirror reflecting emotions, but it is not always true, as is implied by the term “poker face.” In fact, some research suggests the change of facial expressions leads to that of emotions. If this is the case, only by lifting up the corners of your mouth slightly, you may be able to feel positive.

The relation between a person’s mental state and their facial expressions is more complex than is generally believed. While one’s face is often said to reflect their mind, this is not always true, as the term “poker face” suggests. Indeed, some research indicates that changing one’s facial expressions can influence their mental state. If that is the case, then simply raising the corners of your mouth a little may make you feel more positive.
