説明文｜交通案内の予想時刻と実測時刻

A city introduced electronic signs showing expected bus arrival times at several stops. Officials hoped passengers would find it easier to decide when to travel. In the first month, fewer people complained about long waits. Some staff members believed the signs had directly reduced the actual waiting time. However, the bus company had also increased the frequency of services on two routes during the same month. Passengers may have waited less because buses were arriving more often. Furthermore, the electronic signs gave estimates that sometimes became inaccurate during heavy traffic. The city had counted complaints, not measured every passenger’s waiting time. Officials plan to compare arrival records on routes with similar service frequencies and ask passengers whether they used the signs. Staff will also check how often the estimates are accurate and calculate maintenance costs before installing more displays.

問28：What is displayed on the electronic signs?

1. Guaranteed waiting times for each person.
2. Prices of every local train ticket.
3. Estimated bus arrival times.
4. The names of bus drivers.

問29：What decreased during the first month?

1. All actual waiting times were proven shorter.
2. The total number of routes in the city.
3. Complaints about long waiting times.
4. Every passenger’s journey length.

問30：What else may have reduced the time spent waiting?

1. More frequent bus services on two routes.
2. The removal of all buses.
3. All electronic signs being switched off.
4. Every passenger deciding to walk home.

問31：What will be evaluated before further installation?

1. Only the color of the electronic screens.
2. The number of plants in the greenhouse.
3. The prices of household equipment.
4. Comparable arrival records, accuracy, and maintenance costs.

本文全文和訳：市は複数のバス停に予想到着時刻を表示する電子案内板を導入した。乗客が出発時刻を判断しやすくなると期待していた。初月は長い待ち時間への苦情が減り、表示板が実際の待ち時間を短縮したと考える職員もいた。しかしバス会社は同時期に二路線で増便しており、便数が多くなったから待ち時間が減った可能性がある。電子表示は予測であり、渋滞で不正確になる場合もあった。市が数えたのは苦情であり乗客全員の待ち時間ではない。市は便数が似た路線の到着記録を比べ、表示板の利用・予測精度と保守費を調べてから増設する予定だ。

Writing｜英文要約と意見英作文

問32：英文要約（45〜55語）

Some schools share portable translation devices with students participating in international exchange activities. The devices may help them understand unfamiliar words and communicate when they are still learning a language. However, translations can contain mistakes or miss the meaning of a speaker’s words. Teachers therefore encourage students to confirm important information rather than trust a device completely. The devices also require charging, maintenance, and clear borrowing rules. Schools should protect personal information and evaluate costs before buying more equipment.

携帯翻訳機器の利点と翻訳の限界・維持管理の制約を45〜55語で要約しましょう。

TOPIC: Do you think students should learn more about reducing waste at school?
