説明文｜町の公共駐輪場を調べる

Many commuters use bicycles to reach train stations. One town received complaints that its public bicycle parking area was often full. Officials first considered building another parking facility. However, a student group conducted a study and found that several spaces were unused because the signs showing their locations were difficult to see. The town replaced the signs and added a small map near the entrance. In the following month, fewer bicycles were left outside the marked parking areas. Some officials thought that the new signs had solved the problem. Others pointed out that the weather had been unusually rainy, which might have reduced the number of cyclists. The town decided to compare parking use during months with similar weather. It will also count how long cyclists take to find a space and ask residents whether the new signs are clear. Officials want reliable information before spending money on another parking facility.

問28：Why did the student group question the need for new parking facilities?

1. No commuters used bicycles anymore.
2. Some existing spaces were unused because signs were hard to see.
3. The station had been permanently closed.
4. The town had already removed every parking space.

問29：What changed after the signs were replaced?

1. All bicycles were banned from the station.
2. Fewer bicycles were left outside designated areas.
3. Every commuter bought a new bicycle.
4. The parking area was closed.

問30：Why did some officials avoid a firm conclusion?

1. The signs had not been installed.
2. The town had no information about parking.
3. Unusually rainy weather might have reduced cycling.
4. Every available space was filled.

問31：What will the town study before building another facility?

1. Parking use under similar weather, search times, and residents’ opinions.
2. Only the cost of new bicycles.
3. The color of station trains.
4. Visitors to the town museum.

全文和訳：多くの通勤者は自転車で駅へ向かう。町には公共駐輪場が満車だという苦情があり、役所は増設を検討した。しかし生徒の調査で場所を示す標識が見づらく使われていない駐輪スペースがあると判明。町が標識と入口の地図を改善すると、翌月には指定区域外の自転車が減った。標識の成果だと考える人もいたが、例年にない雨で自転車利用者が減った可能性もある。町は天候が似た月で利用を比較し、駐輪場所を探す時間を計り、表示が分かりやすいか住民に聞いてから増設を判断する。

問32：英文要約（45〜55語）

Some public libraries have started lending small projectors to community groups. These devices let people show photographs or presentations without purchasing expensive equipment. A group can reserve a projector, use it for a short period, and return it for others. This service may save money and make local meetings more engaging. However, lending electronic equipment creates challenges. Staff need to inspect the projectors after each use, check that cables and accessories are returned, and explain how to transport the devices safely. Popular dates may be fully booked, and repairs can be costly. Libraries therefore need clear borrowing rules and reliable maintenance plans.
