説明文｜公園の野鳥用巣箱を調べる

A community group placed several birdhouses in a town park to provide safe nesting places for some birds. Volunteers hoped the project would encourage more birds to use the park. Over the following spring, they observed birds entering a few of the new houses. Some residents believed that the project had increased the number of birds. However, the volunteers had not counted the birds before the houses were installed. They also noticed that the weather during the spring was warmer than usual, which might have influenced bird activity. Seeing birds use the houses did not prove that the total population had increased. The group therefore decided to record the number of visits to each birdhouse and compare observations over several years. It also planned to consult wildlife specialists about cleaning the houses safely. Volunteers wanted reliable evidence before installing more birdhouses throughout the park.

問28：Why did the community group install birdhouses?

1. To stop birds visiting the park.
2. To make the weather warmer.
3. To replace the park’s walking paths.
4. To offer nesting places for some birds.

問29：What did volunteers observe after installation?

1. Birds entering some of the new houses.
2. A proven increase in the total bird population.
3. The disappearance of every bird in the park.
4. All birdhouses remaining permanently empty.

問30：Why was the project’s effect on bird numbers uncertain?

1. The group had never installed birdhouses.
2. The park had no trees.
3. The weather was identical every year.
4. There were no earlier counts and warmer weather could affect activity.

問31：What will volunteers do before expanding the project?

1. Remove all birdhouses immediately.
2. Stop monitoring the park.
3. Collect longer-term observations and consult specialists.
4. Assume every nest is occupied.

全文和訳：地域団体は町の公園にいくつかの巣箱を設置し、一部の鳥に安全な営巣場所を提供しようとした。翌春には新しい巣箱へ入る鳥が観察されたため、鳥が増えたと考える住民もいた。しかし設置前の鳥の数は調べておらず、春の気温も例年より高かったため活動量が影響された可能性がある。巣箱の利用は総個体数の増加を証明しない。そこで巣箱ごとの訪問回数を記録して何年か比較し、巣箱の安全な清掃について野生生物の専門家に相談する。増設前に信頼できる証拠を得たいと考えた。

Writing｜英文要約・意見英作文

問32：英文要約（45〜55語）

At community festivals, organizers often make new directional signs each year. Many of these signs are thrown away after an event, even when the materials are still usable. To reduce waste, some towns have started sharing reusable signs with blank spaces where event information can be changed. Groups can borrow the signs, add the necessary details, and return them for future use. This may save money and reduce the amount of material discarded. However, the signs require regular care. Organizers must clean them, replace damaged parts, check that messages are easy to read, and keep track of borrowed items. Storage space and transport costs can also limit the program.

再利用標識の目的・利点・問題点を45〜55語の英文にまとめてください。本文にない数字や自分の提案は加えないこと。

問33：意見英作文（80〜100語）

TOPIC: Do you think schools should teach students more about making decisions using data?

自分の立場を明示し、異なる二つの理由と具体例を80〜100語で書きなさい。
