How Much Is a Tree Worth? It is easy to measure the value of most things that people own. If you want to sell your house or car, for example, an expert will be able to tell you how much money it is worth. However, it's much harder to decide how much things in nature are worth. What is the value, for example, of a tree? One way to measure the value of a tree could simply be in terms of how much money could be made from cutting it down and selling the wood. A tree might be worth more, however, if it isn't cut down. In the case of a fruit tree, for example, we would have to ask how much money could be made by selling the fruit that the tree produces over its lifetime. Furthermore, what about the seeds that tree produces that can grow into new trees that will produce their own fruit? Do these elements add to the value of the original tree? In assessing its value, we might also look beyond the tree itself to the other creatures that live in it. For example, insects, birds, and other animals could not survive without the tree. These creatures use the tree for both food and shelter. Does the fact that the tree supports all these other lives add to the value of the tree itself? Trees also offer non-monetary benefits to people. For example, a tree gives us shelter on a sunny day or provides refuge from heavy rain. How much are these things worth? And what about the beauty of trees that can calm us when we are feeling stressed and that even inspires poetry. How do these kinds of benefits add to the value of the tree? If placing a value on a tree is such a difficult task, placing a value on nature itself is likely impossible. The natural world is an irreplaceable wonder that not only provides humans with many of our basic needs but also inspires us. How do we place value on such a resource?

5 次の英文は,家族の夜の外食行動(eating out behavior)に関する調査について述べたもので ある。英文と表を良く読み, あとの問題に答えなさい。 なお, 計算等を行う場合は、この問題の ページの余白で行うこと。 Kakeru and his friend Judy go to a university in Japan. They decided to work together to do some research about people's eating out behavior at night. They sent several questions to 300 families with children in elementary or junior high school. They asked what day of the week the families eat out at night the most and what their primary reason for eating out is. The results are shown in the tables below. Table 1 shows the days of eating out at night. According to the results of the survey, Monday is the lowest percent of all. Only one percent of the families eat out on Monday. The percent of families who eat out on Thursday is half of the percent of Wednesday. On Sunday, ten percent of families eat out. The rate of families choosing Friday or Saturday night for eating out is more than 70 percent, and Friday is higher than Saturday. Why do more families choose Friday and not Saturday for eating out? Many adults and children are on a five-day week, and Saturdays and Sundays are their days off. So, they eat out on Friday night as a reward for finishing the week's work or school. In Table 2, we can see various reasons for eating out at night, but more than 60 percent of the answers are related only to parents. Parents usually make meals for the family, and other members sometimes help to cook. As a result, when parents cannot make dinner, the family eats out. The percent of "For a change" is about half of "All family members come home too late." The research also shows that most children want to eat out more often, but about 50 percent. of parents think they eat out too much. They worry about the cost of eating at restaurants.

(1)なぜ、ウではなくエになるのかの理由を教えてほしいです 見づらくてすみません🙇‍♀️

これを読んで、あとの問いに答えなさい。 Hi, I'm Kaito. Today, I will talk about Al "devices. We use many kinds of Al devices lik use it to do work given by humans, I think Al devices can make our lives better. There "robots, "drones, and "smartphones, AI devices collect a lot of information, rememberi still a lot of work AI devices cannot do but they can do some work to make our lives easi Through my speech, I want you to learn more about Al devices and to live with them in the future. imagine how It was held by Kamome City At the event, I learned about many kinds of AI devices I didn't know anything about AI devices before I joined an event about them th that can help humans. we ca this summe 9 with her body, it asked her some questions, and gave her suggestions to make her fee better. A man from Kamome City Office said to me, Though this robot can work like doctor, (D). It cannot replace a doctor. But there will be more robots working in hospitals in the future." At the event, I started thinking about the ways to make Al device nt, I started to learn more about AI devices. I've learned that A this graph. It shows the "changes in the number of farmers in 2010, 2015, and 2020 in devices are used in many different ways. For example, AI devices help farmers. Japan and how old they were in each year. The number of farmers became smaller, and the "percentage of the farmers who were 60 years old and older than 60 years old became larger And now, AI devices are expected to be a great help to farmers. After I went to the event, 605799 Look saw graph : グラフ camera:カメラ changes in color(s): 下線部が表すグラフとして Changes in the number of farme ウ 250 (万人) 200 179.8 175.7 150 152.4 100 138.2 50 27A 2010 ° 37.5 2015 C60 years old and older than younger than 60 years old.

One robot I there helped farmers pick tomatoes. The robot has a "camera on it to collect a lot of information about the tomatoes. It remembers the shapes and "colors of "ripe tomatoes and decides when to pick the tomatoes. When it decides to pick the tomatoes, it picks them with its arms. Farmers send the tomatoes that the robot has picked to the stores. At this event, talked with a farmer who used the "tomato-picking robot. I asked him, "What do you think about working with the robot?" He said, "I don't think robots and humans can do all of the same work. But)(2). Today, robots have become very important. The number of young people who want to be farmers has become smaller, because a farmer's work is hard and needs much experience. If robots can do the hard work for farmers, they will improve farmers' lives. I hope more young people will want to become farmers." AI devices are used in our lives in many ways. I've learned that it is difficult for us to live without AI devices in today's world. However, we need to remember AI devices are not perfect. AI devices can remember all the information they collect, but 3). So, we always have to think about effective ways of using them. I hope that more AI devices will be used to help people. AI devices, like the doctor robot and the tomato-picking robot, can improve our lives. So, I want to make AI devices that can work well with humans to make our lives better in the future. That's my dream. Thank you for listening.
