英検2級Readingの長文で Walking to the station, … や Having completed the report, … を読み違えてしまう方へ。学校英語の分詞構文は形だけ覚えても、実際の英文で『誰が行動しているか』『何が先に起きたか』『理由なのか同時進行なのか』が判断できなければ、長文の内容一致で失点につながります。慶英会では分詞構文と後置修飾を区別する独自4択30問、主語の不一致を直す12問、独自説明文2題・内容一致8問の計50問を制作しました。NEW TREASUREなどで学んだ文法を英検2級の読解力へ転用する練習です。

結論|文頭の分詞構文は、まず主節の主語を確認する

Walking to the library, Mai noticed a new sign. では歩いているのはMaiです。Walking to the library, the sign was noticed by Mai. と書くと標識が歩いているように見える不自然な構造になりかねません。意味が曖昧ならWhen Mai was walking … のように主語を明示する方が安全です。

英検2級の公式Reading形式【2026年度】

英検協会の2級試験内容では、短文の語句空所補充17問、説明文の長文空所補充6問、Eメール・説明文の内容一致8問が出題されます。分詞構文単独の公式出題数は定められていません。本記事は文構造の読解に絞った慶英会独自の補強教材です。
