このjobsは単数系にならないのでしょうか? 同じ著者の英作文の参考書で、主語が複数形なのに、その主語に対応する名詞が単数系であったことがかなりの頻度でありました。 学校の先生の解説によると、主語は複数形だが、一人一人に焦点を当てているため単数系になっている とおっしゃっ... 続きを読む

T -200 English 091 In Japan, women often have difficulty returning getting promoted after giving In their jobs birth and raising their children. 151 01 123d 日本では、女性は出産・育児の後は復職や昇進において 不利になることが多い。 文の構成は? 「女性が〜すること」を主語にしてしまうと、とても難しい文に なってしまいます。 このようなときは「人物を主語にする」が鉄 則です。「女性は〜するのに苦労する」と言い換えます。 「出産・育児の後」は? 「出産する」 は have children (本文は一般論なので複数形の children を使っていますが、 「1人の子供を産む」 なら a child で OK です) か give birth を用います。 「育児」 は raise one's children か take care of one's children です。 「出産し育児をした後」 ですから or ではなくて and を用います。 余談ですが 「出産・育児のための休暇をとる」という場合の 「休暇をとる」は、 take (期間) off を使います。 期間が限定されて いないときには、実情を考えて 「数ヵ月」 を補っておきましょう。 take maternity leave 「育児休暇をとる」という表現もあります。 妊婦さんが着る服のことを指すマタニティーウェア(maternity wear [不可算名詞] / maternity dresses) も暗記してください。 ✓ 「復職する」 は? <return to one's job〉 あるいは〈get back to one's job〉 とします。 or 「昇進する」は? する出世させる」の意味です。 get a promotion と言うことも get promoted を覚えておいてください。 promote は「~を促進 可能です。 なお 「昇給する」 get a pay raise も覚えてください。 「不利になる」 は? ここでは 「復職や昇進が難しい」 と考え、 〈have difficulty Ving) を用います。 これは元々は have difficulty in (V)ing だ ったのですが、現在では in は省略するのがふつうです。また dificulty は冠詞をつけません。 これと似た表現に have trouble (V)ing 「~が困難である」 がありますが、 これも冠詞はつけま せん。 「不利」 = a disadvantage を用いるためには相当な自信と英語運 能力が必要となります。 英作文ではそのような「不安な語」は 一切使わない決意で臨んでください。 (人 [例] Being short is a disadvantage to a basketball player. 「背が低いことはバスケットボール選手にとって不利だ」 本文で使うなら In Japan, women are often at a (social) disadvantage in getting ... となります。

4の解き方がわかりません。 例えば(a)で、続く文であくびを謝っていることも全て把握した上で、挨拶なのでpolitelyかと考えたのですが、なぜ誤りなのか教えていただきたいです。

13 Lucy is a British schoolgirl who lives in Oxford. She is talking to her father, Fred, in the kitchen of their home. Read the conversation below and answer the following questions. Lucy: (a) Good morning, Dad. Oh, sorry for yawning. What are you doing with that microwave oven? It looks heavy. Do you need a hand with moving it? Fred: I think I'll be OK, Lucy. I'm just going to put it in the car and take it to the city dump. Lucy: Couldn't you send it away to be repaired? Fred: It's ten years old and well out of warranty now, so I very much doubt that the manufacturer would do it. They probably don't even carry the spare parts anymore. Lucy: That's a shame. Oh, I know what! Why not take it to the Repair Café near my school? Fred: What's that? I've never heard of it. Lucy: It's brilliant! We visited it as part of our environmental science course recently. It's a meeting place where people can get together to mend broken items cooperatively. And have a chat and a cup of coffee! Fred: I'm all ears. Tell me more. Lucy: Well, the first Repair Café was started by a Dutch woman called Martine Postma in Amsterdam in 2009. (1) 彼女は,使い捨て文化で環境が破壊されて, ゴミの量が地球規模で増えることを心配してたん . She wanted to find a local solution to this global problem. Fred: That's what they call "thinking globally, acting locally," isn't it? Lucy: Exactly. She also wanted to address the decline in community spirit amongst urban dwellers and do something about people's loss of practical skills and ingenuity. Fred: And the idea (2) caught on? Lucy: Very much so. The concept has grown into a global movement. The one in Oxford started about four years ago. Fred: Impressive! What kind of things do they repair? Lucy: Oh, all sorts. Electrical appliances, clothes, furniture, crockery, bicycles, and even toys. Fred: How successful are they at repairing things? Lucy: Well, of course, they cannot guarantee to fix every item brought to them, but they have a fairly good success rate. One study found that on average 60 to 70 percent of items were repaired. The rate is higher for some items such as bicycles and clothes but lower for things like laptop computers. Fred: I can understand that. Just between you and me, I think some electronics manufacturers deliberately make products in such a way that you cannot disassemble them and repair them unless you have specialized tools and equipment. Lucy: Yes, and that's where Repair Cafés can help. But these cafés are not just about repairing things for people. They are places where we can meet others, share ideas, and be inspired. The volunteer repairers are very keen to involve the visitors in thinking about the repair and actually carrying out the repair themselves. They also encourage people to think about living together in more sustainable communities. Fred: I suppose you could say they are about repairing our minds, not just our things. Lucy: Quite so, although often the two are very closely related. Many people attach (3)sentimental value to old things that might, for example, be part of their family history. Fred: I see what you mean. It almost sounds too good to be true. (a)Is there a catch? For example, how much does it cost? Lucy: Advice and help from the repairers is free, but people who use the café are invited to make a donation. That money is used to cover the costs involved in running the café. If specific spare parts are needed, the repairers will advise you on how to obtain them. Fred: Well, that's marvelous! (e)Then I'll take this old microwave there. Are they open today? Lucy: Yes, and I'll come with you. I've got a pair of jeans that are badly in need of some attention. QUESTIONS 1. Translate the underlined part after (1) into English. 2. What does the underlined phrase after (2) mean? Select the most appropriate expression from the list below. (A) became popular (B) hit a dead end (C) occurred to you (D) played a significant role (E) worked in practice 3. The underlined phrase after (3) means the value of an object which is derived from personal or emotional association rather than its material worth. Give ONE object that has "sentimental value" for you and explain why it has such value. Your answer should be between 15 and 20 English words in length. (Indicate the number of words you have written at the end of your answer.)

Today, more and more young people are spending more and more time on smartphones and computers. According (D) a 2013 *survey carried out by the *Japanese Cabinet Office, 97.2% of high school students owned a cell phone; of these, 82.8% had a smartphone. This is a *drastic increase from 2010, when only 3.9% of those with cell phones had smartphones. The survey also shows that the spread of smartphones has led to increased access to the Internet among children, whose average access time on a weekday is 107 minutes. The Cabinet Office also found that 40% of Japanese children *log on to the Internet more than two hours a day, and that 8% spend more than five hours a day online. This has led to some serious social and *psychological problems. Heavy Internet users become *obsessed with staying online and @develop an *addiction to games, social media sites, and free communication systems such as LINE. The various *adverse effects of such addictions have been reported in most developed countries. Many young addicts suffer (2) headaches and sleep disturbances such as *insomnia. They fail to maintain normal weight *due to eating irregularities. And many are more likely to experience emotional distress, isolation, anxiety, and depression. A British study suggests a clear link between excessive Internet use (3) lower self-esteem. Those young people who spend more than four hours a day looking at a screen are particularly *vulnerable to mental *disorders. Several related studies conducted in China make clear the effects of Internet use on brain structure. One study has shown that *volume @losses were seen in the *gray matter areas of Internet addicts' brains. These areas are involved in people's ability to develop *empathy and compassion for others. Another Chinese study used MRI scans to look at the brains of Internet-addicted teenagers and found significant damage in the *white-matter nerve fibers connecting the brain areas governing emotions, decision-making, and self-control. Similar (4) can be seen in the brains of heavy alcohol and drug users. 2. a-bil-i-ty 3. access 4. va-ri-e-ty 5. in-tro-duce アイウエ アイ アイウエ アイウ () cell phone: ## 1.
