英検準2級プラスのEメールや長文では、opt in・opt out・unsubscribe・consentが「登録・受信・辞退・同意」を区別する重要語です。opt in＝任意の配信を受ける選択、opt out＝受信や参加を辞退、unsubscribe＝配信登録の解除、consent＝特定の利用への同意が代表的な意味です。配信解除をした＝イベント予約を取り消したとは限りません。慶英会の独自40問（短文12・書き換え12・4長文16問）で条件を正確に読み取ります。全解答・全文和訳付きです。

結論｜情報配信・予約・同意は別の手続き

• opt in to A：Aを受け入れる・参加することを選択する。opt in to optional updates。
• opt out of A：Aを受けない・参加しないことを選ぶ。opt out of promotional messages。
• unsubscribe from A：メルマガなどの配信登録を解除する。unsubscribe from the newsletter。
• consent to A／give consent：特定の活動や利用に同意する。consent to public photo-sharing。

例：講座の予約が確定している生徒が任意のニュースレターをunsubscribeしても、そのことだけで予約が取り消されるとは限りません。また学校行事に参加することが写真の一般公開への同意を意味するとも限りません。本文に書かれた誰が、何の目的で、どの手続きに同意したかを読みます。以下は架空の施設・案内による教育用例文です。

長文1｜博物館の企画メール｜配信解除と予約取消を区別

Reading passage（慶英会オリジナル）

From: City Museum Subject: Saturday Workshop and Email Preferences Thank you for registering for our Saturday history workshop. Your reservation has been confirmed for 2 p.m. The museum also offers an optional monthly newsletter about future exhibitions. To receive the newsletter, visitors must opt in through a separate setting in their accounts. Registering for the workshop does not automatically add anyone to the newsletter list. Families who already receive newsletters can opt out or unsubscribe if they no longer want promotional updates. Doing so will not cancel their confirmed workshop reservations. Anyone who cannot attend the workshop must use the separate cancellation form before Friday. The museum says this distinction helps visitors understand which choices concern information and which affect their actual bookings. A revised workshop timetable would be sent directly to confirmed participants, whether or not they subscribe to promotional messages.

問25. When is the confirmed history workshop?

A. Friday at noon ／ B. Saturday at 2 p.m. ／ C. Sunday evening ／ D. Saturday at 9 a.m.

問26. How does a visitor start receiving the optional newsletter?

A. By canceling the workshop ／ B. By appearing at the museum ／ C. By opting in through a separate account setting ／ D. By showing a student ID

問27. What happens if someone unsubscribes from promotional emails?

A. The workshop reservation remains confirmed ／ B. The workshop is automatically canceled ／ C. All tickets become invalid ／ D. The museum closes the account immediately

問28. How should someone cancel the workshop?

A. By unsubscribing from every newsletter ／ B. By ignoring the reminder ／ C. By changing a password ／ D. By using the separate cancellation form before Friday

長文2｜学校の交流会｜写真の公開には同意が必要

Reading passage（慶英会オリジナル）

A school arranged an international exchange afternoon for students and visiting families. It planned to take group photographs for an internal class report. The school also considered publishing selected photographs on its public website. Parents were told that participation in the event and consent to public photo-sharing were separate decisions. Families could opt out of the optional photo-sharing activity while still attending the exchange afternoon. Staff were asked not to assume that attending the event meant permission had been given to publish every photograph. A teacher was collecting consent forms before selecting pictures for the website. During the event, students who did not want their photographs shared publicly could join the same discussions and games as everyone else. The school planned to check that each selected photograph matched the permissions recorded on the form. It had not yet published any of the new photographs.

問29. What two choices did the school treat separately?

A. Lunch and transportation ／ B. Event attendance and consent to public photo-sharing ／ C. Room size and lesson length ／ D. The two school buildings

問30. Could families opt out of public photo-sharing and still attend?

A. No, they had to leave ／ B. Only if they paid extra ／ C. Yes ／ D. Only after photographs were published

問31. What was the teacher collecting?

A. Consent forms ／ B. Train tickets ／ C. Printed dictionaries ／ D. Museum membership cards

問32. What was true of the new event photographs?

長文3｜図書館のメール案内｜必須の連絡と任意のニュース

Reading passage（慶英会オリジナル）

A town library updated its online reservation system. People with confirmed study-room bookings would continue to receive essential messages about changes to their reservation times. Separately, the library invited visitors to opt in to optional book recommendations sent twice a month. A notice explained that visitors could opt out of the recommendations at any time without losing access to their library accounts. One student unsubscribed from the optional recommendations and expected to stop receiving all messages. The librarian explained that essential booking updates would still be sent, because those messages concerned an existing service rather than promotional recommendations. The student also noticed that the account’s password had not changed when the optional email subscription ended. Staff said that the newsletter preferences, password and study-room booking were separate account settings. The library planned to make these differences clearer on its website.

問33. How often were optional book recommendations offered?

A. Every day ／ B. Twice a month ／ C. Once a year ／ D. Every hour

問34. What can visitors opt out of without losing library-account access?

A. Their account ownership ／ B. All mandatory safety rules ／ C. Optional book recommendations ／ D. Previously borrowed books

問35. What messages would the student still receive after unsubscribing?

A. Essential study-room booking updates ／ B. All optional advertisements ／ C. Every other visitor’s passwords ／ D. No messages of any kind

問36. What happened to the student’s password after unsubscribing?

A. It was shared publicly ／ B. It was automatically deleted ／ C. It was sent to all library users ／ D. It did not change

長文4｜地域のボランティア調査｜回答と氏名公表の区別

Reading passage（慶英会オリジナル）

A community group carried out a survey about how residents wanted to improve the local park. Forty people responded, and most supported installing more shaded benches. The organizers hoped to include several quotations from the responses in their public report. However, the survey had asked participants only about park improvements, not whether their names could be published. The organizers therefore contacted selected respondents to ask for separate consent before using names. Some people agreed, while others opted out of being identified. Those who did not consent still had their anonymous opinions included in the summary where the survey terms allowed it. The group decided not to give away private contact details in the published report. It explained that answering a survey did not automatically provide permission for every future use of personal information. The final report described the results but did not claim that the forty respondents represented every resident in the town.

問37. How many people responded to the park survey?

A. Twenty ／ B. Forty ／ C. Sixty ／ D. One hundred

問38. Why did organizers seek separate consent?

A. To cancel the park project ／ B. To change the weather forecast ／ C. To use selected respondents’ names publicly ／ D. To increase the survey fee

問39. What could happen to anonymous opinions from people who declined name publication?

A. They could still be summarized where the survey terms allowed it ／ B. They were necessarily destroyed ／ C. They were attributed to other people ／ D. They were published with private contact details

問40. What did the group NOT claim?

A. That some respondents supported benches ／ B. That names needed separate consent ／ C. That a report would be prepared ／ D. That the forty responses represented all town residents

復習｜「登録したから許可した」と読まない

• opt in to、opt out of、unsubscribe fromの3つの前置詞を短文で反復する。
• 行事の申込みと宣伝メールの受信登録を別の事項として扱う。
• 写真共有の同意は具体的な利用目的と対応させ、行事参加自体と混同しない。
• 長文でsome / most / allなどの範囲を誤って広げない。
• 翌日と一週間後に4長文を再演習し、各誤答の対象と条件のずれを説明する。

FAQ

opt outとunsubscribeは同じですか？

任意配信を止める場面では似ています。opt outは幅広く任意の活動・情報の受信を辞退する選択で、unsubscribeはメールなどの定期配信から登録を解除することです。

イベントに参加すれば写真の公開に同意したことになりますか？

英語の本文にその条件が明示されていなければ、そのようには読みません。参加と写真公開への同意は区別して内容一致を判断します。

unsubscribeすると予約も取り消されますか？

必ずしもそうではありません。ニュースレターの配信解除と予約の取消は別の手続きである場合があります。本文の具体的な条件を確認してください。
