English → Korean THE REPAIRER OF REPUTATIONS I Level 7/10

We had profited well by the latest treaties with France and England; the exclusion of foreign-born Jews as a measure of self-preservation, the settlement of the new independent negro state of Suanee, the checking of immigration, the new laws concerning naturalization, and the gradual centralization of power in the executive all contributed to national calm and prosperity.

우리는 프랑스와 영국과의 최신 조약들로부터 큰 이익을 얻었다. 자기 보존의 수단으로서 외국 태생 유대인들의 추방, 새로운 독립 흑인 국가 수아니의 정착, 이민 억제, 귀화에 관한 새로운 법률들, 그리고 행정부로의 점진적인 권력 집중이 모두 국가적 평온과 번영에 기여하였다.

When the Government solved the Indian problem and squadrons of Indian cavalry scouts in native costume were substituted for the pitiable organizations tacked on to the tail of skeletonized regiments by a former Secretary of War, the nation drew a long sigh of relief.

정부가 인디언 문제를 해결하고, 전직 전쟁부 장관에 의해 유명무실한 연대의 말단에 덧붙여진 가련한 조직들 대신 전통 복장을 한 인디언 기병 정찰대가 배치되었을 때, 국가는 안도의 긴 한숨을 내쉬었다.

When, after the colossal Congress of Religions, bigotry and intolerance were laid in their graves and kindness and charity began to draw warring sects together, many thought the millennium had arrived, at least in the new world which after all is a world by itself.

거대한 종교 회의 이후, 편협함과 불관용이 무덤 속에 묻히고 친절과 자애가 대립하는 종파들을 하나로 모으기 시작했을 때, 많은 이들은 적어도 결국 그 자체로 하나의 세계인 신세계에서만큼은 천년왕국이 도래했다고 생각하였다.

But self-preservation is the first law, and the United States had to look on in helpless sorrow as Germany, Italy, Spain and Belgium writhed in the throes of Anarchy, while Russia, watching from the Caucasus, stooped and bound them one by one.

그러나 자기 보존은 제일의 법칙이며, 미국은 독일, 이탈리아, 스페인, 벨기에가 무정부주의의 고통 속에서 몸부림치는 동안 속수무책의 슬픔으로 바라볼 수밖에 없었고, 그 사이 코카서스에서 지켜보던 러시아는 몸을 굽혀 그들을 하나씩 결박하였다.

In the city of New York the summer of 1899 was signalized by the dismantling of the Elevated Railroads.

뉴욕시에서 1899년의 여름은 고가 철도의 철거로 특징지어졌다.

The summer of 1900 will live in the memories of New York people for many a cycle; the Dodge Statue was removed in that year.

1900년의 여름은 뉴욕 시민들의 기억 속에 오랫동안 살아남을 것이다. 그해에 도지 동상이 철거되었기 때문이다.
