Subject: Updated Volunteer Information for the Photo Archive

Dear Volunteers,

Thank you for applying to help our local history center prepare a digital collection of photographs. We have received 68 applications for 40 places. Please remember that completing the application does not mean you have been accepted.

We will send selection emails on Monday. Those who receive an offer must confirm their attendance by Wednesday at five in the afternoon. If someone does not respond by that deadline, we may offer the place to a person on the waiting list.

Training is scheduled for Saturday, March 13. It begins at ten, but please arrive at the east entrance by nine forty-five. The main entrance will be closed while repairs are being carried out. The center will provide gloves and scanning equipment, but volunteers may bring notebooks.

During training, you will learn how to describe the condition of photographs and check dates using original records. Please do not upload images to personal websites. Although the center owns the physical photographs, it still needs to check digital publication rights and privacy before releasing them online.

We plan to publish a small group of approved images first. A date for releasing the full collection has not yet been announced.

Best regards, Photo Archive Team

長文2｜地域の歩道と仮設案内の検証

A town is studying ways to make the route between a railway station and a public hospital easier to use. Some existing paths have steps, narrow corners, and confusing signs. Officials asked residents to describe places where they had difficulty walking, particularly if they used wheelchairs or pushed strollers.

As an initial trial, the town installed temporary signs that showed an alternative route with fewer steps. Several visitors said the new route was easier to understand. However, one sign pointed toward a side gate that had recently been closed for construction. Staff corrected the sign after checking the latest official notice.

During the trial, officials also counted pedestrians at two locations. More people used the marked alternative path on several afternoons, but the weather was mild and the hospital was holding a special event. The town therefore warned that the observations could not prove how people would behave every day of the year.

Officials plan to repeat the observations on weekends and rainy days and compare the costs of different permanent designs. They must also consider access for deliveries and emergency vehicles. No decision has been made to replace all existing signs.

問28：What was the purpose of the temporary signs?

1. To show an alternative route with fewer steps
2. To stop all access to the hospital
3. To reduce the number of trains
4. To sell advertising space

問29：Why was one sign corrected?

1. It had no letters
2. It pointed toward a gate closed for construction
3. The hospital had been removed
4. It showed a railway ticket price

問30：Why should the pedestrian counts be interpreted carefully?

1. No pedestrians were observed
2. The weather was always rainy
3. Weather and a special event may have influenced use
4. The town did not record any routes

問31：What has not yet been decided?

1. Whether the hospital has an entrance
2. Whether officials interviewed residents
3. Whether a sign had an error
4. Whether to replace all existing signs

Writing｜英文要約・意見英作文

問32：英文要約45〜55語

Some public libraries lend portable speakers to community groups organizing small educational events. Borrowers can use the equipment for presentations without purchasing devices they may need only occasionally. Staff also explain how to connect the speakers and adjust the volume safely.

However, lending speakers requires regular inspections, charging, and storage. The number of devices may be limited, so groups sometimes need to reserve them in advance. Organizers must also respect noise rules and avoid disturbing nearby residents.

One library plans to examine borrowing records and maintenance costs after six months. Staff hope to expand the service, but they have not decided whether buying additional speakers would be affordable.

スピーカー貸出の利点、保守と騒音の問題、追加購入の検討を45〜55語で要約してください。

問33：意見英作文80〜100語

TOPIC: Do you think local governments should create more opportunities for young people to volunteer?
