on the road : 집 떠나서, 순회공연


They found such terrible living conditions (that) they had to condemn her house.

 

* condemn: to order something such as a building or machine to be destroyed because it is not safe


when she learned that Gean had no kids or family to turn to

 

* turn to : 의지하다


It's one thing to be neighborly, but you've taken it to the extreme

 

* It's one thing vs  it's another


It means everything, just thinking about it.

 

* It means everything 너무나 소중하다 vs It means nothing  하나도 소중하지 않다

* just thinking about it. 생각만 해도...

* I get goosebumps, just thinking about it. 생각만 해도 닭살돋아..


A non-profit called Operation Enduring Gratitude, which helps Arizona veterans and their families, heard about Gean's plight

 

* veteran : 퇴역군인 (*주로 참전했던)

* plight = suffering 힘든 상황, 고생, 고난


volunteers went full speed ahead renovating her old house.

 

* go ahead 앞으로 가다

* go full speed ahead 전속력으로 = 일사천리로
