全文和訳：町は小さな橋の状態に関する報告を集めていたが、担当者ごとに同じ問題を異なる言葉で記述していた。例えば手すりの緩みを明確に書いた報告もあれば、もっと一般的に書いたものもあった。そのため報告書同士の比較が難しかった。町は毎回同じ項目を記録できる点検表を導入し、決まった地点から写真も撮影した。報告の一貫性は高まったが、点検表だけで専門家の判断を代替できないと理解し、技師の意見に基づいて毎年制度を見直すことにした。

説明文｜地域の渡し船の案内を改善する

A river town operates a small passenger ferry between two neighborhoods. Residents use the boat to visit shops and public facilities. During busy periods, some passengers complained that they could not tell how long they would have to wait. The town introduced a display showing the expected arrival time of the next ferry. In the first month, complaints decreased. Some staff members believed that the display had solved the waiting problem. However, the ferry also began making more trips during the same month. This meant that shorter waits might not have been caused by the display alone. The display was sometimes inaccurate when strong winds delayed the boat. The town decided to measure actual waiting times on days with similar weather and numbers of trips. It also planned to explain that the displayed times were estimates, not promises. Before installing the same technology at another ferry stop, officials will compare the benefits with equipment and maintenance costs.

問28：Why did the town install the arrival-time display?

1. Passengers had difficulty estimating how long they would wait.
2. The ferry was no longer needed by residents.
3. The town planned to stop all ferry services.
4. The boat could travel without a crew.

問29：Why could the drop in complaints have more than one cause?

1. The ferry also began making more trips during the same period.
2. The town stopped counting complaints.
3. Every passenger started walking across the river.
4. Strong winds never affected the boat.

問30：When could the displayed arrival times be incorrect?

1. When passengers bought food near the stop.
2. When strong winds delayed the ferry.
3. When the boat’s passengers carried books.
4. When the town opened a new library.

問31：What will officials consider before using the display at another stop?

1. Only the color of the screen.
2. Whether residents own smartphones.
3. The benefits as well as equipment and maintenance expenses.
4. The names of every ferry passenger.

全文和訳：川沿いの町では二つの地区を結ぶ小型の渡し船が運航され、住民は買い物や公共施設への移動に使っている。混雑時に待ち時間が分からないという不満があり、町は次の船の到着予測を表示する装置を導入した。最初の1か月で苦情は減ったが、同時期に運航本数も増えていたため、表示装置だけの効果とは言い切れない。また強風で船が遅れると予測が不正確になることがあった。町は似た天候・運航本数の日で実際の待ち時間を比較し、表示は保証でなく推定だと説明することにした。別の停留所へ導入する前に機器と維持費も考慮する。

問32：英文要約（45〜55語）

Some school buildings become very warm in summer, especially when classrooms receive strong sunlight through large windows. Running air conditioners for long periods can increase electricity costs. To help reduce indoor temperatures, some schools have installed outdoor shades above windows or planted trees near buildings. These measures may block some direct sunlight and make rooms more comfortable, while also reducing the need for cooling. However, choosing an effective solution requires care. Trees need time to grow and regular maintenance, while shades must be installed safely and may affect the amount of natural light indoors. School staff should compare costs and classroom conditions before selecting a method.
