説明文｜地域の図書館に太陽光発電を設置

A town installed solar panels on the roof of a public library to reduce the electricity purchased from the power company. Staff members also hoped that the project would help children learn about renewable energy. A screen near the entrance displayed how much electricity the panels generated each day. After the first summer, the library reported lower electricity bills than during the previous summer. Some visitors believed the panels were responsible for the entire difference. The library director, however, explained that the comparison was not simple. The building had closed for several days for repairs, and the weather had been cooler than the year before. Both factors could have reduced electricity use. For the following year, the town decided to record the building’s daily opening hours and outdoor temperatures along with the solar generation data. It would then compare similar days. The town also planned to calculate maintenance costs before deciding whether to install panels on other public buildings.

問28｜Why did the town install solar panels on the library?

1. To make the library open twenty-four hours a day.
2. To reduce purchased electricity and support energy education.
3. To replace every book with electronic books.
4. To stop children using the building.

問29｜What was shown on the screen near the entrance?

1. The names of all library visitors.
2. The amount of electricity generated each day.
3. The prices of nearby houses.
4. The timetable of the local buses.

問30｜Why was the bill comparison difficult to interpret?

1. The panels had been removed immediately.
2. The power company had closed permanently.
3. No bills had been received.
4. The building was closed some days and the weather was cooler.

問31｜What will the town do before expanding the project?

1. Compare similar days and calculate maintenance costs.
2. Assume the panels explain all changes.
3. Stop measuring electricity use.
4. Install panels without checking results.

全文和訳：町は電力会社から買う電力量を減らすため公共図書館の屋上に太陽光パネルを設置した。子どもたちへの再生可能エネルギー教育にも役立てる狙いで、入口付近の画面には毎日の発電量が表示された。初夏の後、前年夏より電気料金が低くなったが、修理のため休館した日があり、天候も前年より涼しかったため、パネルだけが原因とは言えない。翌年は開館時間、屋外気温、発電量を記録し、類似した日を比較する。ほかの建物への導入前に維持費も計算する。

Writing｜英文要約と意見英作文

問32｜英文要約（45〜55語）

In many towns, people own bicycles that are rarely used because they have moved or changed their routines. At the same time, others need affordable transportation for short journeys. To make better use of existing bicycles, some community groups collect unused bikes, repair them, and lend them to residents for several weeks. Volunteers may also teach basic maintenance skills. These programs can reduce waste, save money, and help people travel without using cars. However, maintaining a lending program is not simple. Organizers must check each bicycle for safety, repair worn parts, and manage reservations and returns. They also need enough storage space. If too many bicycles are borrowed at the same time, some residents may have to wait.

本文の目的・利点・問題点を45〜55語で要約してください。自分の意見や本文にない情報は入れません。

問33｜意見英作文（80〜100語）
