1. Students without suitable devices may have difficulty accessing materials.
2. A student sharing one computer with siblings might not be able to review the lesson every evening.
3. Schools could keep printed copies or lend devices.
4. Some students may face access problems, but schools can provide alternatives.

【つなげて答えるモデル】

One disadvantage is that some students may not have suitable devices. For example, they might share a computer with their family. Schools could keep printed books or lend devices so that these students can still study.

【モデルの和訳】欠点の一つは適した端末を持たない生徒がいること。例えば家族でPCを共有していると毎晩学べないかもしれない。紙教材を残すか端末を貸すとよい。

5. Longer opening may require more staff and raise operating costs.
6. A small library might need another employee to supervise the study room.
7. The library could test late hours on days with the greatest demand.
8. Extended hours may cost more, but a limited trial could help assess demand.

【つなげて答えるモデル】

A disadvantage is the additional cost of running the library at night. For example, staff may need to supervise the study room longer. The library could test later opening on selected evenings before deciding on a permanent schedule.

【モデルの和訳】欠点は夜の運営費の増加。例えば職員による監督時間が延びる可能性がある。恒久化前に需要のある曜日だけ試すとよい。

9. Crowds can block paths and make it difficult for other visitors to move safely.
10. A walking path near an event entrance might become too crowded for families with young children.
11. Organizers could use clear signs and separate entrance and exit routes.
12. Crowded events can create safety problems, so route planning matters.

【つなげて答えるモデル】

Large events can make park paths too crowded. For example, families with small children might struggle to move through a narrow entrance. Organizers could plan separate routes and put up clear signs to reduce confusion and make walking safer.

【モデルの和訳】大規模行事は公園の道を混雑させる。狭い入口では小さな子のいる家庭が通りにくい可能性がある。別経路や分かりやすい表示で混乱を減らせる。

13. Students may watch recordings without checking whether they understand the lesson.
14. A learner might replay a difficult grammar explanation repeatedly but still need to ask a teacher.
15. Teachers can schedule time for questions after students review recordings.
16. Recordings support review, but feedback and questions can still be necessary.

【つなげて答えるモデル】

One problem is that students may think watching a recording means they understand everything. For example, they might still be confused about grammar after replaying the explanation. Teachers could provide a short question session after the recorded lesson.

【モデルの和訳】録画を見たことだけで理解したと思い込む可能性がある。文法説明を繰り返しても分からない生徒は質問できる機会が必要だ。

17. Some residents cannot use the app because of device or accessibility limits.
18. An older visitor might have trouble completing a form on a small screen.
19. The facility could accept bookings at a desk or by telephone as well.
20. Apps can be convenient, but an app-only rule may exclude some users.

【つなげて答えるモデル】

An app-only reservation system may be difficult for people without suitable devices. For example, some visitors cannot easily fill in forms on small screens. Public facilities should also provide a telephone or desk option so that more residents can book.

【モデルの和訳】アプリだけの予約は端末や操作で困る人を取り残す可能性がある。例えば小さな画面で用紙入力が難しい来訪者には電話や窓口が必要だ。

21. The answers may not represent people who were not surveyed.
22. If only active club members respond, other students’ needs may remain unknown.
23. The team could ask a wider group before making a final recommendation.
24. A small survey can be useful but may not support a broad conclusion.

【つなげて答えるモデル】

One disadvantage is that a small survey may not represent everyone. For example, club members might have different interests from other students. The team could collect answers from a wider group before deciding what changes would be useful.

【モデルの和訳】少数の調査は全員を代表しない可能性がある。例えばクラブ員とほかの生徒の興味が異なることがある。結論前に広い対象から意見を集めるとよい。

25. Responsibilities can become unclear when many people share the same tasks.
26. Two students might both assume someone else will prepare the diagrams.
27. The group could assign a clear owner and deadline to each task.
28. Group work can be useful, but unclear assignments can delay preparation.

【つなげて答えるモデル】

A problem is that students may not know who is responsible for each task. For example, nobody might prepare the diagrams because everyone expects someone else to do them. A checklist with assigned names and deadlines could help.

【モデルの和訳】人数が多いと作業の担当が曖昧になる可能性がある。全員が別の人が図表を作ると思い込む場合、担当者と締切を明記した一覧が役立つ。

29. Technical failures can prevent otherwise completed work from reaching a teacher.
30. A student might finish an assignment but lose the internet connection before uploading it.
31. Schools could allow an alternative submission when technology fails.
32. Online submission works for many students, but technical failures need a backup.

【つなげて答えるモデル】

One disadvantage is that an internet problem may stop a student from submitting completed work. For example, the connection might fail just before the deadline. Schools could provide another submission method when a technical problem can be confirmed.

【モデルの和訳】通信障害で完成した宿題を教師へ送れなくなる可能性がある。締切直前に通信が切れる場合などに、確認できた障害には代替提出を認めるとよい。
