問題

セクション1:デザイン:活動記事の情報・推論

A student project led by Daichi began at the school corridor. Its purpose was to make information easier to find. Members worked with signs, and the first practical outcome was a direction sign. Daichi brought a marker, but the organizer emphasized that equipment was only one part of a successful project.

The first version looked attractive to its creators, but users had trouble finding essential information. The group observed people trying to use it without help. They simplified the layout and increased the contrast of important text. They learned that appearance and usefulness were separate questions. A design could be pleasing while still failing to guide someone who encountered it for the first time.

問1(5点)

What was the main purpose of the project?

  1. To make information easier to find.
  2. To prove that experts were unnecessary.
  3. To replace every activity in the town.
  4. To advertise luxury products.

問2(5点)

Which outcome is mentioned in the passage?

  1. a national law
  2. a direction sign
  3. a weather forecast
  4. a travel ticket

問3(5点)

Why did the group revise the design?

  1. The first version contained no information.
  2. Users refused to try it.
  3. The creators disliked all attractive designs.
  4. Users could not easily find essential information.

問4(5点)

What lesson did the group learn?

セクション2:スポーツ:報告書の情報・推論

This report concerns a project at the tennis court. The team, including Kota, aimed to practice fair play by working with tennis. One visible outcome was a match checklist. Resources included a racket. The report focuses on how the team revised its approach after reviewing what happened during the first session.

The organizer initially ranked participants by speed. This made a few experienced players enthusiastic, but several beginners stopped coming. The group introduced separate personal goals and a cooperative task. They still recorded progress, but no longer used one ranking to represent everyone's success. Different goals allowed participants to challenge themselves without treating every activity as a competition against others.

セクション3:修理と再利用:体験記の情報・推論

When Kai arrived at the science room, the team already had a clear objective: to understand how sound works. Working with radios, they eventually produced a repair record. Kai contributed a notebook. The team later shared its experience with another group, emphasizing a decision that changed how they approached the work.

Before replacing anything, the group checked whether the problem could be fixed safely. Some objects required only a small adjustment. Others had damage that beginners could not repair. These were set aside for an expert. The organizer explained that keeping an object in use was worthwhile only when it remained safe. Reducing waste did not justify ignoring the limits of the group's skills.

セクション4:発表と協力:メールの情報・推論

Dear project members, Thank you for helping us tell a local story. At our meeting at the theater, we worked with short plays and prepared a stage plan. Sam supplied a costume. Before our next meeting, please consider the following account of a problem we encountered and how we responded.

During preparation, the loudest members made most of the decisions. The group tried collecting written suggestions before discussion. This brought forward ideas from members who rarely spoke. Some suggestions conflicted, so the group still needed to discuss priorities. The new method did not remove disagreement; it made more people's views available before a decision was made.

セクション5:庭づくり:報告書の情報・推論

This report concerns a project at the kitchen garden. The team, including Mina, aimed to learn about different smells by working with herbs. One visible outcome was an herb label. Resources included a small pot. The report focuses on how the team revised its approach after reviewing what happened during the first session.

The group compared two plots. One received regular care, while the other was checked only occasionally. More plants survived in the first plot. However, the plots also received different amounts of sunlight. The group therefore avoided claiming that the care schedule alone explained the difference. For the next comparison, they planned to use plots with similar light conditions.

問17(5点)

What was the main purpose of the project?

  1. To prove that experts were unnecessary.
  2. To advertise luxury products.

  4. Both plots received exactly the same treatment.

問20(5点)

What would improve the next comparison?
