Lesson 6：状況を再現する – Be動詞で描く「その時の空気」

状況を説明できる英語とは、行動・状態・感情を一度に描ける言葉です。
過去進行形・受け身・感情表現を組み合わせて「その瞬間にいた自分」を再現する力を磨きます。
訓練報告、面談、Ground Schoolの説明など、相手に「場面を共有させる英語」を身につけましょう。

学習ステップ

1. 行動＋状態＋感情を一文にまとめる。
2. 訓練やブリーフィングの実際の流れを再現する。
3. 状況描写を意識して「空気のある英語」を作る。

状況を再現する例文

実践会話例（訓練・報告）

• Instructor: What were you doing when I told you to stop descending?
  Student: I was checking the approach path, but I was focusing too much on the runway.
• Instructor: How did you feel about your pattern today?
  Student: I was confident at first, but I became a bit confused after the second turn.
• Instructor: When did you notice the warning light?
  Student: It was on while we were briefing the landing procedure.

状況を描く構文パターン

• When I was〜, I was〜.（行動＋行動）
• I was〜, but I was〜.（行動＋感情）
• We were being〜 when〜.（受け身＋出来事）

融合演習（Do × Be × 状況）

1. I did check the checklist, but I was being distracted by the radio call.
2. I was adjusting the trim when the instructor called me to level off.
3. We were being briefed on crosswind landing while another flight was departing.
4. I did confirm the heading, but I was confused because the wind changed.
5. When I was going to descend, ATC told me to maintain altitude.

よくある落とし穴

• 過去進行＋受け身の組み合わせでは、be動詞が2回出ても自然。
• 「出来事の再現」を意識すると、過去形よりも過去進行形の方が伝わる。
• 感情を入れると説明が一気にリアルになる。
