ある塾の英語の長文テストなんですけど、問一の答えが順番に、3.2.4と書いてるんですが全く納得いきません。Part1が4でなく、3なのはまあ百歩譲れますが、Part3が4になる意味が分かりません。風力発電の環境面での利点なんて一文字も書いてない気がします 問題の作成ミスでし... 続きを読む

You are preparing for a speech about alternative energy forms. You have found a journal article about wind energy. You are going to read the article and take notes. Wind Energy [Part 1] Scientists are always looking for more sustainable and cost-effective forms of energy, and many people believe wind energy is the best option available. Wind is a product of heat from the sun, so the energy supply will never run out. Wind does not pollute the air, water, or ground as it produces energy. Another major benefit of wind energy is that it requires no water. In contrast, traditional forms of energy production all require water for cooling. Due to its efficiency, scientists have worked to increase the capacity of wind production units. They hope to develop wind energy into a large-scale alternative to fossil fuels. [Part 2] Wind energy can be produced using offshore wind or land-based wind. The primary benefit of offshore wind collection is that it is more efficient because offshore wind blows more consistently and with more power than land-based wind. To take advantage of the steadier wind, offshore wind production units are bigger and have more capacity. Therefore, the energy acquired from offshore wind can produce significantly more electricity than land-based wind energy. Wind production units located in the sea off the coasts of big cities can efficiently provide energy to many people, while land-based wind production units take up valuable land space and require complicated transportation efforts. However, since it is a newer technology, offshore wind energy is currently more expensive than land-based wind energy. [Part 3] Even though it actually has ancient roots, producing energy from wind is usually thought of as a modern alternative to burning fossil fuels. Initially, wind energy provided power for electricity. But during the mid-20th century, it was replaced by fossil fuel resources. Unfortunately, the pollution created from the burning of fossil fuels is a major cause of global warming. This has forced scientists to develop more sustainable and cost-effective forms of wind energy. Currently, most offshore wind resources are located in coastal waters which are too deep for current wind energy technology. However, engineers are working to develop floating production units that can withstand the hard environment of the ocean, such as storm waves, hurricane-force winds, and ice flows. These developments offer wind as an effective source of energy without damaging the environment. Complete the notes by filling in 1 to Outline: Part 1: 8 Notes

6限目 150点 TR/35-40 次の英文を読み, 問いに答えなさい。 ( 50点) Most people in the United States don't realize that they've been eating *genetically engineered foods since the mid-1990s. More than 60% of all processed foods on U.S. - supermarket shelves - including pizza, chips, cookies, ice cream, salad dressing, contain ingredients from engineered soybeans or corn syrup, and baking powder - 5 corn. Genetic change or modification is not a recent thing. Humans have been (5a)altering the genetic structure of plants for a few thousand years, keeping seeds from the best crops and planting them in following years, *crossbreeding varieties to make them taste sweeter, grow bigger, and (5b)last longer. (1)In this way we've transformed the 10 wild tomato from a fruit the size of a grape to today's giant, juicy tomatoes. But (2)the technique of genetic engineering is new, and quite different from conventional breeding. Traditional breeders mix together related organisms whose genetic structures are similar. In so doing, they transfer a great number of genes. By contrast, today's genetic engineers can transfer just a few genes at one time between 15 species that are distantly related or not related at all. Genetic engineers can pull a desired gene from almost any living organism and insert it into almost any other organism. They can put a rat gene into lettuce to make a plant that produces vitamin C or blend genes from an insect into apple plants, The purpose offering protection from various diseases that damage apples and pears. 20 is the same: (3) to insert a gene or genes from one organism carrying a desired characteristic into another organism which does not have that characteristic. between The engineered organisms that scientists produce by transferring genes species are called transgenic organisms.

英語長文演習1学期中間試験 問題用紙 ※解答はすべて、 解答用紙に記入しなさい。 ※解答用紙のみ切り離して提出する。 1 Read the following essay and answer the questions. Most commercial airplanes travel at about 500 to 600 miles per hour. SR-71 Blackbird, which was developed by Lockheed Martin in the 1960s, could fly as fast as 2500 miles per hour. At that speed, you could go from Tokyo to New York in just around three hours. So why does it still take so long for ordinary people to fly? I The to shatter windows One of the biggest problems is that when a plane flies faster than the speed of sound it breaks the sound barrier, causing a sonic boom. This boom is thousands of feet below the plane. II Unfortunately, a lack of fuel efficiency and the high costs of maintenance made it unprofitable. It retired in 2003, just a few years after a major accident. But the dream of supersonic travel never died, and engineers at NASA have finally figured out a way to reduce the sound of a sonic boom to little more than that of a car door shutting. III If all goes well, they will use the data they collect to try to convince regulators to update aviation laws to allow commercial supersonic flight. At least three companies in the US are hoping to advantage of such a change, and they aim to put supersonic planes in the air within the next decade. QUESTIONS: A About the following explanations, put T if it is true, and put F if it is false. Qa. Before realizing the dream of supersonic travel, aviation laws must be changed. b. In 1960s, ordinary people could go from Tokyo to New York in just around three hours. c. Nasa succeeded in cutting down on the sound made by supersonic airplanes. d. The Concorde flew much faster than ordinary commercial airplanes. e. Supersonic airplanes can do damage to houses or buildings when they fly over land. BChoose the right sentence to fill in III a. NASA is hoping to run test flights over land in 2022. b. Military airplanes fly at speeds many times that. c. That's why the Concorde, a supersonic plane that traveled at around 1500 miles per hour, was mostly limited to routes above the ocean. CChoose the appropriate word or phrase to fill in ★ and ☆ . ★ b. so loud c. loud enough a. too loud d. louder a. make b. take C. gain d. share
