First, a historian will explain how to check the dates and sources of old photographs. After a short break, students will work in pairs to prepare descriptions for a small exhibition. Participants should not bring original family photographs because the class will use sample materials. Parents may wait in the free public lounge but cannot join the small-group activities. If you cannot attend, email us by 5:00 p.m. on Friday. A student on the waiting list may then be invited. The workshop is free, but the special evening lecture requires a separate reservation.

説明文｜図書館の電力使用量を公開する

Some public libraries display charts showing how much electricity their buildings use. One library introduced such a screen near its entrance to encourage visitors and staff to think about saving energy. During the first two months, the amount of electricity purchased from the power company decreased. Some visitors believed the screen alone had caused the change. The library director explained that the conclusion was uncertain. The building had been closed for repairs on several days, and outdoor temperatures were milder than during the previous period. Both factors could have lowered electricity use even without the screen. In addition, the library had replaced several old lights with more efficient models. The library plans to record daily opening hours, temperatures, and equipment changes. Staff will compare days with similar conditions and ask visitors which habits have changed. The goal is to understand which actions save electricity rather than assume that one new display explains every result.

問28：Why did the library install an electricity display?

1. To close the building permanently.
2. To replace every library book.
3. To increase the price of electricity.
4. To encourage people to think about saving energy.

問29：What happened during the first two months?

1. All visitors were required to leave early.
2. Every light was removed from the building.
3. The display stopped working.
4. The library bought less electricity from the power company.

問30：Why was the cause of the decrease uncertain?

1. No electricity was measured.
2. Closures, milder weather, and more efficient lights could also affect use.
3. The display had never been installed.
4. The library had no equipment.

問31：What will staff compare in their next investigation?

1. Only the age of the library’s oldest book.
2. Different cities without any measurements.
3. Days with similar conditions and information about changed habits.
4. The prices of nearby restaurants.

全文和訳：公共図書館では使用電力量を示す画面を入口付近に設置し、省エネルギーを考えるきっかけにする場合がある。ある図書館で導入後2か月の購入電力量が減り、表示の効果だと考えた来訪者もいたが、複数日の修理休館や穏やかな気温が影響した可能性もある。古い照明の一部も効率的なものへ交換していた。図書館は今後、開館時間・気温・設備交換を記録し、条件が似た日を比較する。利用者の習慣も調べて実際に効果のある行動を確かめる。

Writing｜英文要約と意見英作文

問32：英文要約（45〜55語）

Some public libraries have introduced equipment-lending programs so community groups can borrow projectors and speakers for meetings. These programs may reduce costs, allow groups to make clearer presentations, and help residents share information. Members usually reserve an item and return it after a short period. However, electronic equipment requires careful management. Staff must check that cables and accessories are returned, inspect devices for damage, and explain how to transport them safely. Popular dates may be fully booked, and repairs can be expensive. Libraries therefore need clear borrowing rules and maintenance plans to keep the service useful.

本文の取り組み、利点、問題点を45〜55語でまとめてください。自分の意見や本文にない数値は追加しません。

問33：意見英作文（80〜100語）

TOPIC: Do you think students should learn more about planning community events?

賛否の立場を一つ選び、異なる理由を二つ挙げ、80〜100語で説明しましょう。
