結論｜二つの選択肢の利点と最終決定は別の情報

英検準2級リスニング第3部の説明・物語では、AとBの利点・欠点を説明したあと、最終的にどちらを選んだかが問われることがあります。「電車は高い」「バスは安い」と聞こえただけで答えを決めず、however / although / decided / chose / instead / because の直後を追いましょう。

本教材は、慶英会が完全独自に作成した8台本32問（各台本4肢選択×4）です。英検公式の準2級リスニング第3部は短いパッセージの内容一致を問う10問・4肢選択・1回放送ですが、ここでは「比較と最終判断」に絞った追加演習のため一つの台本に4問を付けています。音声が付属しない文字台本教材であり、公式問題の転載ではありません。

The science classroom had five old chairs with loose legs. Buying new chairs would be quick, but the school wanted to avoid throwing away usable materials.

Repairing four chairs would cost less than buying four new ones, although it would take an extra week. The school decided to repair the four safe chairs and replace the fifth.

第4台本｜朝の学習会と夜の学習会

A student council wanted to offer a weekly English conversation meeting. Some members preferred the morning because the school library was quiet before classes.

Twenty said they could attend before school, while only twelve said they were free in the evening. The council therefore chose Wednesday mornings for a four-week trial.

第7台本｜水筒の購入と給水ステーション

Selling bottles would be simple to organize, but it would produce more empty plastic bottles. A refill station would cost money to install and need regular cleaning. However, students could use their own reusable bottles and refill them many times. The council discussed the choices with teachers.

The organizers did not want to cancel the event, so they decided to use the community hall. Because of its smaller capacity, they limited advance reservations to 100 people.
