【今週のポイント】
goes completely nuts [見出しより]
go nutsで「気がふれる」「熱狂する」「やりたい放題やる」の意。この場合は、completelyが入っているので「狂気の沙汰となる」が適切ではないかと思います。
【その他のキーフレーズ】
took to the streets
「近づいている」の意。
took it a little too far
「ちょっとやりすぎた」の意。a littleで「ちょっとだけ」を強調しています。littleの代わりに、bitを使うこともできます。反対に、「かなりやりすぎた」と言いたい場合は、took it much too farやtook it way too farになります。冠詞がつかないことに注意しましょう。
shut down
「封鎖する」「閉鎖する」の意。
spilled out into the night
spill outで「あふれ出る」の意。この場合のspilled outは、上記のtook to the streetsに近い意味と解釈して間違いないでしょう。
