第3部|独自長文2篇・8問(Q35〜Q42)
Passage 1|安全な歩行者道路と地域の商業活動
Paragraph 1. The fictional town of Veldham planned to limit vehicle access to a narrow commercial street during certain afternoon hours. Shopkeepers hoped that a quieter area would attract pedestrians and make it easier for families to visit. A preliminary survey found strong support among customers who were already using the street, and some officials proposed expanding the restriction to the entire town. Transport researchers cautioned that the survey excluded many delivery drivers and residents who found the street difficult to reach.
Paragraph 2. The town tested a short closure on selected days while monitoring foot traffic, delivery reliability, business sales, and access for people with limited mobility. Pedestrian numbers increased during the trial, but a seasonal festival had been held nearby. The researchers could not rule out the festival’s influence. Some shops welcomed the change, while others experienced delays receiving goods. Officials therefore worked with delivery companies to draw up revised schedules rather than dismissing those concerns.
Paragraph 3. After several months, Veldham found that a limited closure could improve the street’s atmosphere without preventing essential access under certain conditions. It had not established that every commercial area would benefit or that higher foot traffic automatically led to increased profits. The council extended the trial only where practical arrangements and safety inspections were satisfactory. It concluded that the policy should be assessed through actual accessibility, local business needs, and repeated measurements, not public enthusiasm alone.
Q35. Why was the first survey limited?
A. It did not adequately include some drivers and people facing access difficulties. / B. Every town resident had been randomly selected. / C. The street was closed throughout the survey. / D. No customers expressed any opinion.
Q36. What complicated interpretation of increased pedestrian numbers?
A. Every shop had closed during the experiment. / B. A festival nearby could have influenced foot traffic. / C. No one recorded any traffic data. / D. Vehicles had never entered the street.
Q37. How did officials address delivery concerns?
A. They rejected every complaint. / B. They banned all future deliveries. / C. They worked on revised delivery schedules. / D. They required all drivers to use the same hour.
Q38. What does the final report emphasize?
A. Customer enthusiasm is proof of universal success. / B. More pedestrians guarantee more profit. / C. The restriction should be permanent everywhere. / D. Local access, business needs, and repeated evidence determine suitability.
Passage 2|大学研究機器の修理協力と費用評価
Paragraph 1. The fictional University Alliance of Selmont established a program to share specialist technicians who could repair scientific equipment. Smaller universities frequently lacked staff trained to service expensive instruments, and a single breakdown sometimes interrupted research for weeks. The alliance hoped that a shared team would bring about shorter delays and avoid unnecessary replacement purchases. Early reports celebrated a rising number of repair requests and visits by technicians. An independent review warned that these figures were not equivalent to completed repairs or improved research outcomes.
Paragraph 2. During the pilot, the alliance tracked verified equipment failures, repair completion times, replacement parts, travel distances, and whether research projects resumed safely. Some facilities were located near the technicians and received prompt assistance; remote campuses faced longer journeys and higher transport costs. The review team therefore looked into whether the program benefited all participating institutions fairly. It also found that a repaired instrument could still require calibration before reliable data collection resumed.
Paragraph 3. The alliance agreed to step up support for remote campuses and narrow down the types of equipment for which shared maintenance was practical. It published clear eligibility rules and procedures for urgent cases. The final assessment showed promising outcomes for certain instruments but declined to claim that the approach saved money everywhere. Its long-term value would depend on reliable repairs, appropriate technical checks, and the cost of maintaining specialist expertise rather than the number of service tickets submitted.
Q39. What was misleading about early reports?
A. The alliance employed no technicians. / B. Every repair was canceled. / C. Repair request totals did not prove completed repairs or research benefits. / D. No university owned specialist equipment.
Q40. Why did remote campuses face different conditions?
A. All campuses had identical travel distances. / B. Distance increased delays and transport expenses. / C. Remote campuses had no research projects. / D. Technicians were never allowed to travel.
Q41. Why might a repaired instrument still be unusable?
A. Every component had to be replaced. / B. The university had banned calibration. / C. Repair itself guaranteed valid data. / D. It could require calibration before research resumed.
Q42. What guided the alliance’s final decisions?
A. Verified repair performance, technical needs, and total costs. / B. The highest possible number of service tickets. / C. Only the number of new staff hired. / D. Identical procedures for every type of equipment.

Q35〜Q42|長文の要点訳と解答根拠
Passage 1の要点訳
段落1:架空のヴェルダム町は狭い商店街で午後の一部時間に車両を制限する案を試した。現利用客の賛成は多かったが、配達員や訪れにくい住民の意見が不足しており、全町への一律導入は適切ではなかった。
段落2:歩行者数・配達の確実性・売上・移動が難しい人のアクセスを測定した。歩行者は増えたが近くの季節行事の効果も考えられ、配達遅延が生じた店もあった。懸念を退けず配達会社と新たな時間設定を検討した。
段落3:条件を満たす場所で限定的な車両規制は有益だったが、すべての商店街で効果があるとも、歩行者増が利益増と同じともいえない。安全と実際の商業・生活への影響を評価する方針となった。
Q35:A. It did not adequately include some drivers and people facing access difficulties. — existing street users mainly surveyed。
Q36:B. A festival nearby could have influenced foot traffic. — festival as confounding factor。
Q37:C. They worked on revised delivery schedules. — draw up schedules together with delivery companies。
Q38:D. Local access, business needs, and repeated evidence determine suitability. — site-specific conditions over universal claim。
Passage 2の要点訳
段落1:架空のセルモント大学連合は高額な研究機器を修理できる専門技術者を共有した。小規模大学では故障が研究の長期中断を生み、修理の共同化で遅延と不要な買い替えを減らせると期待された。しかし修理依頼や技術者訪問の件数は修理完了や研究成果とは別だった。
段落2:実際の故障、修理完了、部品、移動距離、研究が安全に再開できたかを記録した。技術者に近いキャンパスは有利だが遠隔校は費用と待ち時間が増える。修理できても精度の校正が終わらなければ研究を再開できない。
段落3:遠隔校への支援を拡充し、共同保守が実用的な機器の種類を絞った。参加条件と緊急対応手順を明示。特定の装置で有望な結果は得たが、全ての大学で費用を削減するとは断言しなかった。
Q39:C. Repair request totals did not prove completed repairs or research benefits. — requests vs completed outcomes。
Q40:B. Distance increased delays and transport expenses. — travel distance and expense。
Q41:D. It could require calibration before research resumed. — calibration after repair。
Q42:A. Verified repair performance, technical needs, and total costs. — effective repairs and lifecycle cost。
