説明文｜公共のリユース食器貸出を調べる

A city started lending reusable plates and cups to groups organizing small outdoor festivals. Organizers hoped this would reduce the use of disposable dishes. After the first three events, fewer disposable plates had been purchased than in previous years. Some officials believed the borrowing program had caused the entire decrease. However, the festivals were smaller this year, and one of them had served fewer meals because of heavy rain. The city also had not recorded how many borrowed items were damaged or lost. Therefore, a reduction in purchases did not prove that the program saved money overall. Officials plan to compare similar events and count all items returned. They will also calculate washing, transport, and replacement costs before making the service available to larger festivals.

問28：What was the aim of lending reusable dishes?

1. To prevent festivals from serving any food.
2. To replace all local restaurants.
3. To increase the use of disposable dishes.
4. To reduce disposable plates and cups.

問29：What happened after the first three events?

1. Every borrowed item was returned undamaged.
2. All festival attendance doubled.
3. The program was permanently canceled.
4. Fewer disposable plates had been purchased.

問30：Why was the financial benefit uncertain?

1. All previous festivals had the same size.
2. No plates had been borrowed.
3. Events were smaller and washing or replacement costs were not fully counted.
4. Officials had already measured every cost.

問31：What will the city do before expanding?

1. Compare similar events and calculate all operating costs.
2. Only change the color of the cups.
3. Stop examining borrowed items.
4. Replace every festival with a lecture.

本文全文和訳：市は小さな屋外祭りを開く団体に再利用可能な皿・カップを貸し始めた。使い捨て品の削減が目的で、最初の3行事後には前年より購入数が少なかった。すべて貸出制度の効果だと考える職員もいた。しかし今年の祭りは規模が小さく、一つは大雨で提供した食事の数が少なかった。また借りた食器の破損・紛失数を記録していなかったため、購入数が減っても全体として節約できたとは証明できない。町は似た行事を比較し返却数を確認し、洗浄・輸送・交換費を計算してから大きな祭りへ広げる予定だ。

Writing｜英文要約・意見英作文

問32：英文要約（45〜55語）

Some community centers lend portable language-learning players that let visitors listen to short dialogues and practice pronunciation. These devices may help people study without owning a smartphone or buying special equipment. However, they need regular cleaning, charging, and clear instructions. The number of devices is limited, so busy periods can make borrowing difficult. Staff must also check that all accessories are returned and protect any personal recordings made during lessons. Organizers should evaluate demand and maintenance costs before expanding the lending program.

語学プレーヤーの貸出と管理上の課題を45〜55語でまとめます。

問33：意見英作文（80〜100語）

TOPIC: Do you think students should learn more about protecting personal information online?
