次の英文を読み、あとの問いに答えなさい。
According to legend, the ancient Olympic Games were founded by Heracles (the Roman

Hercules), a son of Zeus. Yet the first Olympic Games with written records were held in 776 BC(although it is generally believed that the Games had been going on for many years already). At
these Olympic Games, a naked runner, Coroebus, won the event at the Olympics, the “stade” ―a run of about 192 meters. ①( Olympic champion / Coroebus / this / made / first / the very ) in
history.
The ancient Olympic Games grew and continued to be played every four years for nearly 1200
years. In 393, (1), the Roman emperor Theodosius I, a Christian, ended the Gamesbecause of their non-Christian influences.
About 1500 years later, a young Frenchman named Pierre de Coubertin began their *revival.
Coubertin was an aristocrat born on January 1, 1863. He was only seven years old when France
was *overrun by the Germans during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870. Some believe that
Coubertin *attributed the *defeat of France not to its military skills but to the French soldiers’
lack of energy. After examining the education of German, British, and American children,
Coubertin decided that it was sports that made a ②well-rounded and healthy person.
Coubertin’s *attempt to get France interested in sports was not met with *enthusiasm. Still,
Coubertin *persisted. In 1890, he organized and founded a sports organization, Union desSociétés Francaises de Sports Athlétiques (USFSA). Two years later, Coubertin first gave his
idea to revive the Olympic Games. At a meeting of the USFSA in Paris on November 25, 1892,
Coubertin stated:
Let us export our best athletes into other lands. That is the true Free Trade of the
future; and the day it is introduced into Europe, the cause of Peace will have received a
new and strong partner. I shall ask that...we may attempt to realize...the splendid taskof reviving the Olympic Games.
His speech did not inspire action. Though Coubertin was not the first to *propose the revivalof the Olympic Games, he was certainly the most well-connected and *persistent of those to do so.
Two years later, Coubertin organized a meeting with 79 people who represented nine countries.
He gathered them in an *auditorium that was decorated with ancient paintings and similar
objects to create a good mood for his speech. At this meeting, Coubertin *eloquently spoke of therevival of the Olympic Games. This time, Coubertin aroused (2).

The people at the conference all voted for the Olympic Games. They also decided to have
Coubertin construct an international committee to organize the Games. This committee became
the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Demetrious Vikelas from Greece was selected
to be its first president. Athens was chosen as the location for the revival of the Olympic Gamesand the planning was begun.
*revival: 復興*overrun: ～を占領する*attempt: 努力 *enthusiasm: 情熱*persistent: 粘り強い

*attribute A to B: A を B のせいだと考える*persist: 粘り強く続ける *propose: ～を提案する*auditorium: 公会堂*eloquently: 雄弁に

次の会話文を読み、設問に答えなさい。

Mariko and Susan are shopping at a local supermarket.
Mariko：Susan, where’s the sugar? If they don’t have any, I won’t be able to bake you abirthday cake.

Susan：

What are you talking about? It’s right there in front of you.

Susan：

Well, you’d better get used to it. Thanks to biofuels, food prices are only going to(

1 ).

Mariko：Biofuels? What are they?

Susan：

Well, they’re basically any kind of fuel that is made from living things. Ethanol, forexample, is a biofuel that is used as a replacement for gasoline.

Mariko：But what do biofuels have to do with the price of sugar?

Susan：

Well, *sugar cane growers are choosing to grow crops for fuel instead of food. As the
supply of sugar falls, the price of sugar rises. It’s basic economics.

Mariko：Hmm, I suppose it’s a small price to pay to help save the environment.

Susan：As a matter of fact, biofuels aren’t necessarily good for the environment. They can bequite (

2 ).

Mariko：Really?

Susan：

Unfortunately, rainforests in many parts of the world are being cleared so that
biofuel crops can be grown. Did you know that Brazil is losing 1.8 million hectares of
Amazon rainforest every year?

Mariko：Oh, that’s awful!

Susan：

And what’s even more shocking is that biofuels may even be more polluting thanother sources of energy. In fact, the results of one study suggest that biofuels use moreenergy than they generate, although new technologies are improving the efficiency of
production.

Mariko：Well, if biofuels aren’t the solution, is there anything that can be done?

Susan：

Yes, there is. But I’m not going to tell you ( 3) you’ve baked me that birthday

cake you promised me.
Mariko：Oh, Susan. You’re always thinking with your stomach!

次の英文を読み、設問に答えなさい。
You wouldn’t eat the tiny plastic *fibers that come off your fleece jacket, would you? Researchreleased last week suggests that we might be eating the fish that do. This study ― the first of
its kind ― found that fish in *the Great Lakes are swallowing micro-plastic fibers that havefound their (X ) into the lakes from washing machines. And the fish that eat them include

species that we often have for dinner.
Sherri Mason, professor of chemistry and environmental sciences at the State University of
New York, and Laura Kammin, a pollution expert at the University of Illinois, tested 17
different fish species found in southern Lake Michigan (one of the Great Lakes) for the ①
presence of micro-plastics. None of the species they examined were free of *contamination. “Themajority of this plastic consisted of micro-fibers,” said Mason.
The fibers, they explained, are produced when we wash our *synthetic clothing. ②The tiny
fibers, thousands of which are produced at every wash, are too small to be trapped by the filtersin washing machines and wastewater treatment plants. Thus they end up in our lakes andrivers when recycled water is released from these plants. Because they are designed to resist
environmental decay, they in fact ③do that. They remain in the environment and do not decay
quickly as natural fibers such as cotton or wool do. Fish then eat the micro-fibers when they feed.
When we eat those fish, we’ll be eating those fibers too.
As it turns out, these tiny fibers can cause health problems when they enter an *organism’s
body. Chelsea Rochman, a scientist at the University of California Davis, found that plastic
waste in the sea off the California coast also causes a variety of harmful health effects. She saysthat the plastic *debris floating in our lakes, rivers and oceans contains chemicals that canpotentially harm fish and other species living there. The debris poisons them, affecting hormone
activity and even causing cancers. All plastic debris, no matter the size, may cause healthhazards. However, ④very small pieces of plastic, like the micro-fibers in the Great Lakes, also
act as a sponge and can transfer chemicals to fish and other species, says Rochman.
Other researchers on the U.S. east coast have found similar results in examining
micro-plastics. They proved that the micro-plastics contain poisonous metals and otherdangerous chemicals that can be passed up the food chain to humans. The European researchers
also found micro-plastics in farm-raised oysters. ⑤Eat one of those oysters and you’ll be eatingwhatever it has consumed.
Rochman says that her colleagues have found micro-plastics in seafood sold in markets in the
U.S. and Indonesia. She says the fish tested from the U.S. market had plastic micro-fibers in it― just like those found by Mason and Kammin. ( Y) it is clear that if we want seafood free ofcontamination, we need water free of both invisible, poisonous chemicals and the floating plastic
debris that delivers pollution to various organisms in our lakes and oceans.
⑥What ( reduce / be / to / can / done ) the debris? The solution, Mason, Kammin and Rochman
all agree, lies upstream*, where these fibers and other kinds of micro-plastic are getting into thewater in the first place. Perhaps we could wash our clothes less often, they say. Or, we could all
start wearing more natural fibers. But, more realistically, better washing machine filters areprobably needed. In the meantime, some of our seafood may come with a little micro-plastic
added.
