Part1|オリジナル会話10問
会話1
Q1. What revision is planned?
- A. The bowl will be destroyed.
- B. The test results will be ignored entirely.
- C. The date will be presented as an estimate.
- D. The museum will declare the date certain.
英文台本:Woman: The new exhibition describes a ceramic bowl as dating from 1800. Man: Is that established by the laboratory test? Woman: No, the test covers only a broad period, and the handwritten label may be from a later collection. Man: Then the date should be described as approximate until the evidence is reviewed.
会話2
Q2. Why is the result uncertain?
- A. Cloud cover differed between surveys.
- B. No trees were planted.
- C. Every thermometer had failed.
- D. The pavements were replaced.
英文台本:Man: The city says its street trees made the pavement cooler. Woman: Were the measurements taken under similar weather conditions? Man: Not exactly. The second survey was on a cloudy day. Woman: Then part of the difference could be due to the weather. Let’s repeat the comparison before making a broad claim.
会話3
Q3. What is the man’s point?
- A. Every application was approved.
- B. No advertising was conducted.
- C. The grant has been canceled.
- D. Broader eligibility and easier forms may explain some of the increase.
英文台本:Woman: The business association has counted more applications for a small-business grant. Man: Did the eligibility rules change? Woman: Yes, businesses with fewer employees can now apply, and the form is shorter. Man: Then we shouldn’t credit the advertising campaign alone for the increase.
会話4
Q4. Why does the woman approve?
- A. The original data have been discarded.
- B. The changes can be traced and examined.
- C. Every estimate is now guaranteed accurate.
- D. The researchers have stopped collecting data.
英文台本:Man: The research team has published the corrected figures from its energy survey. Woman: Can readers still inspect the original records? Man: Yes, both versions have unique identifiers and explanations of the changes. Woman: Good. That makes it possible to understand the revisions rather than silently overwrite the earlier work.
会話5
Q5. When is the seminar scheduled?
- A. Thursday morning without interpretation.
- B. Thursday at four in the afternoon.
- C. Friday at four.
- D. It has been canceled.
英文台本:Woman: The lecture hall is free on Thursday, but our sign-language interpreter can’t attend that morning. Man: Could we hold the seminar at four in the afternoon? Woman: The interpreter and hall are both available then, and the speaker has agreed. Man: I’ll send the confirmed time to registrants.
会話6
Q6. What will the charity measure?
- A. Only total box count.
- B. Only volunteer hours.
- C. Only the number of collection sites.
- D. Food quantities and remaining demand.
英文台本:Man: The local food bank says more boxes were distributed this month. Woman: Were the boxes the same size? Man: No. The new parcels are smaller and some families requested additional ones. Woman: Then box counts alone don’t show whether more food reached people. Let’s measure the total quantity and unmet need.
会話7
Q7. What is necessary?
- A. Separate consent for public audio distribution.
- B. Removing written names is automatically sufficient.
- C. Uploading immediately under research permission.
- D. Deleting all oral histories forever.
英文台本:Woman: A researcher wants to post an audio excerpt from our oral-history project. Man: Did participants consent to public distribution? Woman: They agreed to storage for research, but no one asked about online release. Man: Then we need separate permission before uploading recognizable voices.
会話8
Q8. What will the library do?
- A. Discard every tablet.
- B. Lend all devices immediately.
- C. Withhold the two failed units pending replacement and checks.
- D. Cancel its electronic services permanently.
英文台本:Man: The library ordered several refurbished tablets. Woman: Have the replacement batteries been safety tested? Man: Two failed inspection, but the others passed. Woman: Then hold those two until the supplier replaces the batteries and verifies them, and lend the safe ones as planned.
会話9
Q9. Why are the bird counts inconclusive?
- A. The observation effort increased.
- B. Every bird was marked individually.
- C. The marsh was never visited.
- D. All bird populations are known to be stable.
英文台本:Woman: The conservation group observed more seabirds at the restored marsh. Man: Did the same number of volunteers survey the site? Woman: No, twice as many observers attended this year. Man: Then a higher sighting count may reflect greater observation effort. Let’s standardize the surveys before claiming recovery.
会話10
Q10. What will be introduced?
- A. Automatic certification for downloads.
- B. A permanent ban on remote courses.
- C. Exams limited to a single inaccessible hour.
- D. A practical assessment with accessible options.
英文台本:Man: The college wants to issue certificates to everyone who downloaded the training pack. Woman: Downloading material doesn’t demonstrate competence. Could we ask learners to complete a short supervised task? Man: Yes, and provide an accessible alternative for those who cannot attend at one fixed hour.
Part2|オリジナル説明文5篇・10問
Flood-height markers and the reliability of historical evidence
英文台本:A fictional river municipality installed signs showing the water heights recorded during past floods. Officials hoped the markers would improve awareness and help residents understand why certain streets are designated evacuation routes. Researchers noted that historical readings were made with different instruments and that some old marks might reflect local conditions rather than the maximum height across the city. A tall line on one wall could not establish how water moved through every nearby district. The municipality therefore kept links to source records, marked uncertain readings and asked engineers to compare them with current topography. Some residents wanted a simple, memorable message, while safety staff emphasized that warning instructions must not rely on a single historical example. A pilot will test whether users understand the signs and can identify safe routes. Their value depends on accurate context and useful action, not the number of markers installed.
Q11
What is a limitation of historical flood markers?
- A. Every old marker has the same meaning.
- B. Historical water levels always predict future storms.
- C. Measurements may reflect local conditions and differing methods.
- D. The municipality owns no river records.
Q12
What will the municipality test?
- A. Only the number of signs purchased.
- B. Only the design of the logo.
- C. Only historical rainfall totals.
- D. Whether residents understand signs and can choose safe routes.
Shared e-bike batteries and safety checks
英文台本:A fictional transport cooperative is exploring shared electric bicycle batteries for commuters. Supporters expect that standardized battery exchanges might reduce charging delays, especially for people traveling between suburban stations. Engineers warn that batteries vary in age and condition, and some designs are not compatible even when their external shapes are similar. Frequent handling increases the need for careful inspections and clear procedures for damaged cells. The cooperative is considering exchange stations supervised by trained staff, rather than assuming that every returned battery is safe for the next user. Operators also need to monitor electricity use, replacements and whether commuters can reach the stations. Before expansion, the trial will assess actual completed trips, breakdowns, safety incidents and full costs. The number of batteries circulated alone is not evidence that travel has become safer or easier.
Q13
Why do batteries need checks before exchange?
- A. Age, condition and compatibility vary.
- B. All batteries have identical specifications.
- C. Every return guarantees a safe battery.
- D. No specialized handling is required.
Q14
What would demonstrate practical success?
- A. Only the quantity of batteries returned.
- B. Safe completed journeys and manageable operating costs.
- C. The size of the station’s advertisements.
- D. A guarantee against all accidents.
Audio maps for museum visitors with low vision
英文台本:A cultural center developed audio maps designed to help visitors with low vision explore an exhibition. The maps describe gallery locations and selected objects, and a smartphone can provide directions while visitors walk through rooms. Early tests suggested that some people could move independently, but others found the instructions confusing near identical corridors. Staff discovered that the audio system did not always account for temporary furniture, crowded entrances or changes to exhibit placement. The center introduced user trials, clearer physical markers and support from trained staff. Managers explained that an app can provide useful guidance, but it cannot guarantee safe access to every location without accurate information and an alternative when technology fails. The next review will measure successful navigation, reported obstacles, maintenance and visitor understanding rather than downloads alone.
Q15
Why may the audio map fail even when it runs?
- A. All museum walls are identical.
- B. Smartphones are prohibited.
- C. Furniture and gallery arrangements can differ from recorded directions.
- D. Visitors cannot use spoken information.
Q16
How will the center improve the service?
- A. By counting app downloads only.
- B. By removing every member of staff.
- C. By stopping all user trials.
- D. Through practical navigation tests and alternative help.
Correction notices in scientific publications
英文台本:A fictional scientific journal began posting more detailed correction histories after researchers complained that articles were sometimes updated without clear explanations. Editors wanted readers to distinguish an original claim from later revisions, especially when a numerical error affected a conclusion. The journal now assigns version identifiers, displays notices of important changes and preserves links to the original records when lawful. Some researchers worry that visible corrections could be interpreted as evidence that a field is unreliable. The editors argue that corrections are a normal part of responsible inquiry, provided the nature of the error is explained accurately. They will assess whether readers can follow revisions and whether other scientists can reproduce relevant analyses. The number of corrections is not by itself a measure of scientific quality, since it can reflect both problems discovered and the willingness to address them.
Q17
What prompted more detailed correction histories?
- A. Previously unclear revisions made it difficult to trace changes.
- B. Every research article had been deleted.
- C. Readers wanted authors to hide errors.
- D. The journal stopped publishing new research.
Q18
What is the editor’s view of corrections?
- A. They are proof that every field is unreliable.
- B. Transparent correction can be part of responsible research.
- C. They should never be published.
- D. They eliminate the need for replication.
Rural clinic transport and unrecorded demand
英文台本:A group of rural clinics considered an accessible transport service for patients living far from medical facilities. Surveys of people who already attended appointments suggested modest demand, but planners realized that residents unable to travel were missing from those records. Community health workers interviewed people who had repeatedly missed visits and found different needs for wheelchair access, early appointments and reliable connections. The clinics proposed testing a small shuttle with flexible stops and a telephone reservation option rather than relying only on smartphone applications. They plan to monitor completed appointments, missed journeys, waiting times and service costs. Managers stress that high vehicle occupancy is not necessarily evidence of success if the most isolated residents still cannot reach care. The trial should reveal both actual users and unmet need.
Q19
Why do existing-patient surveys miss some demand?
- A. All patients can travel safely.
- B. Every survey is completely false.
- C. People excluded by transport barriers are absent from clinic records.
- D. No residents need medical appointments.
Q20
What will the clinic trial evaluate?
- A. Only total shuttle seats.
- B. Only the number of smartphone downloads.
- C. Only vehicle color.
- D. Completed visits, unmet needs, accessibility and costs.

Part4|長尺インタビュー2問
英文台本:Interviewer: Your regional library is introducing a service that lends portable scientific instruments. Why did you decide to do this? Director: Local schools and community groups wanted to measure environmental conditions without purchasing equipment they might use only occasionally. Shared devices can make practical investigation more accessible. Interviewer: Does a larger number of loans prove that people are learning? Director: No. Some devices may be borrowed but never used, and a user might obtain numbers without understanding calibration or uncertainty. We plan to offer short training sessions and ask borrowers to record how the measurements were made. Interviewer: How do you decide which tools are suitable? Director: Staff assess safety and maintenance requirements. A few instruments need specialist handling, and their use must be supervised. We will not treat everything as appropriate for unrestricted lending. Interviewer: Can the data replace professional monitoring? Director: Not automatically. Community observations can identify interesting questions, but conditions and methods must be checked before strong conclusions are drawn. Interviewer: What would justify extending the service? Director: Evidence of practical learning, responsible use, useful observations and costs that libraries can sustain. A larger catalogue is attractive, but it is not our primary measure of success.
Q26
What does the director say about the number of loans?
- A. It always demonstrates learning.
- B. Every borrowed instrument must have been used.
- C. Loan totals alone cannot establish useful learning or reliable measurements.
- D. Loaning equipment eliminates the need for maintenance.
Q27
What will guide expansion of the program?
- A. Only the number of new devices purchased.
- B. Only promotional attention from schools.
- C. An assumption that community measurements always replace professional data.
- D. Verified learning, safe use, useful observations and sustainable operating costs.
