地域の共同キッチンと雨量観測の独自説明文2題。具体例・原因と結果・対比を判断します。

説明文1：Community Kitchens for Small Food Businesses

Starting a small food business can be difficult because a suitable kitchen is expensive to build and maintain. Some towns have introduced shared kitchens that local businesses can rent for a few hours. The kitchens provide basic equipment and space for preparing food safely.

People who make bread, soup, or other products can test their ideas without paying for a private kitchen all year. (18), a person who wants to sell homemade jam may rent the shared kitchen on two Saturdays before deciding whether to begin a larger business. Supporters say this can make it easier for new entrepreneurs to learn from experience.

However, sharing kitchen space requires strict organization. Equipment must be cleaned between users, ingredients need safe storage, and participants must follow relevant food-safety rules. (19), organizers introduce clear booking procedures and inspections to reduce the risk of problems.

The town wants to open more shared kitchens, but officials are not making that decision immediately. They plan to compare actual usage, cleaning costs, and the number of businesses that continue operating (20) investing in additional facilities.

説明文2：Why Rainfall Records Need Careful Comparison

Rainfall can differ greatly between places that are only a few kilometers apart. Some schools install simple rain gauges to study their local environment. Students can compare their own records with data from professional weather stations and learn how measurements are collected.

To make comparisons useful, students should check that instruments are placed in suitable locations. A rain gauge under a tree may receive less water than one in an open area. (21), the class should record where each gauge is installed and avoid changing positions without noting the difference.

Rainfall records can also contain gaps. Heavy winds may damage equipment, or students may be unable to collect readings during a holiday. A missing measurement should not be replaced with an invented number. (22), teachers encourage students to mark gaps clearly and describe the limits of their data.

Students sometimes want to use the observations to make statements about long-term climate change. Their teachers explain that a few months of data cannot establish such a trend. They should compare longer records and consider other evidence (23) drawing strong conclusions.

長文1：E-mail｜Marine Science Open House

To: Student Helpers

From: Daniel Lee, Coastal Research Center

Subject: Open house activities and volunteer instructions

Thank you for volunteering at our Marine Science Open House on August 22. The event will open to visitors at 10:30 a.m., but student helpers must report to the registration desk by 9:15. We originally planned to use the upstairs exhibition room, but maintenance on the air-conditioning system will take place that morning. All demonstrations will instead be held in the ground-floor activity hall.

The center will provide tables, safety gloves, and basic equipment. Teams that wish to bring their own instruments must submit a list by August 14. You will receive an automatic email when the list arrives. This message confirms receipt only; it does not mean the instruments have been approved. A member of our safety team will send a separate decision after checking the list.

Visitors may watch demonstrations, but only trained students and approved supervisors may handle the scientific equipment. If you need an accessible entrance, please contact the center by August 17 so that we can prepare the most suitable route. Some sections near the research tanks have narrow passages.

Volunteers who need to change their shifts should contact us by August 18. Later changes may not be possible because we must prepare identification cards and safety assignments in advance. The final schedule will be sent on August 20. We appreciate your help in making marine science understandable and safe for the public.

問24

Why were the demonstrations moved downstairs?

1. The event was postponed to another day.
2. The air-conditioning system upstairs needs maintenance.
3. All visitors requested larger seats.
4. The research center has closed permanently.

問25

What does the automatic email after submitting instruments confirm?

1. Approval to use all instruments.
2. The final schedule for the event.
3. That the list was received, not approved.
4. Permission for all visitors to operate equipment.

問26

Who may operate scientific equipment?

1. Trained students and approved supervisors.
2. All visitors who arrive before ten.
3. Parents with a ticket.
4. Anyone who wears gloves.

問27

Why may shift changes be difficult after August 18?

1. The center will close on that date.
2. The exhibition room will reopen.
3. All volunteers will leave the town.
4. Identification cards and safety assignments are prepared ahead.

長文2：Article｜What Can Pop-Up Shops Teach a Town?

Some towns have empty shops along their main streets. Before spending public money on major building projects, local governments sometimes invite businesses to use these spaces for a limited period. Such temporary stores are known as pop-up shops. They may sell crafts, offer repair services, or provide small exhibitions.

One possible advantage is that business owners can test an idea without signing a long-term rental contract. Customers also have a chance to discover services that are not usually available nearby. However, a successful opening weekend does not guarantee that a shop will attract regular customers. The location, opening hours, and type of products all affect demand.

One town tested six pop-up shops over three months. Organizers asked visitors how often they came back and which services they actually used. Some shops attracted crowds when local festivals were taking place but were quiet on ordinary weekdays. A repair service, on the other hand, had fewer visitors on opening day but received regular bookings from residents during the following weeks.

The town also compared rental costs, electricity use, and the amount of volunteer support needed. Researchers warned that counting the total number of visitors would give an incomplete picture. Visitors at a festival might have come to the street even if the shop had not opened, and regular repeat customers could be more valuable to the long-term success of a small business.

After the trial, officials recommended continuing a few services while changing the opening hours of others. They did not describe every pop-up shop as a success. Their goal was to use evidence to decide which businesses could operate sustainably, rather than fill empty buildings temporarily without considering local needs.

問28

Why can pop-up shops help small businesses?

1. They guarantee large profits immediately.
2. They allow ideas to be tested without long rental agreements.
3. They remove all electricity costs.
4. They prevent customers from trying new services.

問29

What did the three-month trial show?

1. All shops were equally busy on weekdays.
2. Festival visitors always became regular customers.
3. Some modest opening-day shops later gained regular customers.
4. Repair services attracted no repeat visits.

問30

Why is total visitor count not always a reliable measure?

1. Some festival visitors might have come anyway, without the shops.
2. Visitors can never be counted.
3. All small shops need the same number of customers.
4. Electricity use does not affect businesses.

問31

What does the article recommend?

1. Keep every temporary shop open permanently.
2. Judge success only by the first weekend.
3. Spend on large buildings immediately.
4. Use repeat demand and operating evidence to make sustainable decisions.

Some schools organize exchanges where families can offer uniforms that children have outgrown. Other families can collect suitable items instead of buying every piece of clothing new. Supporters say these exchanges may reduce costs and the amount of clothing that is thrown away. Students may also learn about reusing materials and sharing resources.

However, exchanges require time and careful organization. Volunteers must check that clothes are clean and in reasonable condition, and it can be difficult to provide enough items in every size. Some families may be uncomfortable sharing personal information when requesting clothing.

To address these challenges, schools may offer clear collection rules and allow families to request items privately. They record which sizes are needed and arrange regular collection days. The aim is to make the service practical and respectful while reducing unnecessary spending and waste.

Writing Part 5｜意見英作文80〜100語（目安）

TOPIC：Do you think schools should teach students basic money-management skills?
