説明文｜暑い日の公共施設の休憩場所

A city opened several air-conditioned rest areas in public buildings during hot weather. Officials hoped that residents who were walking between services could take short breaks. During the first month, the number of people entering these buildings increased. Some officials believed the rest areas had attracted many new visitors. However, a number of regular visitors used the rest areas several times each week. The city had counted entries, not different people. Several public events had also taken place in the buildings during the trial, which may have increased the number of entries independently of the rest areas. The city plans to compare use during similar weeks and ask visitors why they entered the buildings. Staff will also calculate electricity and cleaning costs. Before expanding the program, they want to know whether the benefits justify the additional expenses.

問28：Why were rest areas opened?

1. To close all public service counters.
2. To let residents take short breaks in hot weather.
3. To replace every outdoor park.
4. To raise the price of public transport.

問29：What increased during the first month?

1. Entries into public buildings.
2. The proven number of different new visitors.
3. The number of buses on each route.
4. The number of new buildings constructed.

問30：Why was the number of distinct new visitors uncertain?

1. No one visited any building.
2. Officials had counted every individual only once.
3. The rest areas were closed all month.
4. Some regular visitors entered repeatedly, and events also took place.

問31：What will officials consider before expansion?

1. Only the color of the chairs.
2. The price of library books.
3. User reasons and electricity and cleaning costs.
4. The number of parking signs in another town.

本文全文和訳：市は暑い時期に公共建築物へ冷房付きの休憩場所をいくつか開いた。行政手続きの場所の間を歩く住民が短く休めるようにしたかった。最初の月は建物への入場回数が増え、新規来訪者を多く引き付けたと考える人もいた。しかし常連の中には週に何度も利用する人がおり、数えたのは入場回数であって異なる人数ではなかった。同時期に公共行事も開かれていたため、休憩所とは別の理由で入場回数が増えた可能性がある。市は条件が似た週の利用を比べ、来訪理由を尋ねる。電気代と清掃費を計算し、利点が費用に見合うか調べて増設を決める。

Writing｜英文要約45〜55語と意見英作文80〜100語

問32：英文要約（45〜55語）

Some public libraries lend portable document scanners to community groups that want to preserve local records. Residents can create digital copies of meeting notes and old letters without purchasing expensive equipment. This can save money and help protect useful information. However, people must obtain permission before copying documents owned by others, and private details need protection. Staff also have to check scanners for damage, explain how to handle delicate papers, and make sure accessories are returned. Popular dates may be difficult to reserve, and repairing equipment can be costly.

携帯スキャナーの貸出制度について、利点と制約を45〜55語で要約してください。
