次の英文を読んで，以下の設問に答えなさい。
Amelia Earhart became very famous as the first woman to fly across the Atlantic Ocean.

Actually, on that historic flight, she was only a passenger on the airplane flown by two malepilots. Amelia always believed that female pilots could fly an airplane alone, even though their
flying skills were doubted by other people. After several years of flying practice and organizing
women’s flying races, she made a successful flight by herself across the Atlantic Ocean in 1932.
She was the first person, man or woman, to fly across the Atlantic alone since Charles
Lindbergh first did it in 1927.
People admired Amelia for her courage and spirit, and she became a national hero. She wasa symbol of the excitement of *aviation and new possibilities for women. Her “look” ― short
hair, expensive pants and silk scarf around her neck ― changed women’s fashion. Her *bobstyle haircut became a national trend. She represented the modern woman, and American
women now wanted to be comfortable and look sporty. Thanks to her, women experienced a
new sense of freedom.
Amelia believed strongly in equality between men and women. Pilot licenses were given
equally and she wanted (1)equality in other fields as well. After getting married she kept her
name and independence. She even made her husband promise to let her go if she wasn’t happy
after one year. She said she could not stand living just as a traditional wife. Although she had
been famous and rich, Amelia wanted (2)one last challenge, a final flight. She planned to flyaround the world at the *equator, the longest distance. Her first attempt failed when her planecrashed while she was taking off. She was lucky to survive. Finally, in 1937 she left on her
final challenge from Miami, flying east, with her navigator, Fred Noonan. They flew 22,000
miles, stopping for repairs and fuel, to New Guinea. They had 7,000 miles to go, all over the
Pacific Ocean, with one stop for fuel on tiny Howland Island. The flight did not end successfully
and they disappeared.
What happened to Amelia Earhart? Some say she was shot down by the Japanese military.
Others say she landed on another island. We may never know, but a special group is stillsearching for evidence that will explain the mystery clearly. Whatever the case, Amelia
Earhart is remembered as a pioneer of aviation and a fighter for the *liberation and equalityof women.

次の会話文とグラフを読み，設問に答えなさい。

Ken：

How was your trip to France?

Aya：

(

1

) I was really excited about seeing all the famous art museums and castles.

One thing that surprised me, though, was that there were no really tall buildings in
the center of Paris.
Ken：That’s because Paris has restrictions on the height of buildings.

Aya：

Yes, I found that out after I got there. In other ways, Paris seemed like a typical big
city, though. There were a lot of people and cars. But we could get to the countrysideby bus in about an hour. I loved seeing all the pretty villages. It was really peacefuland relaxing.

Ken：

It sounds like you preferred the country to the city.

Aya：

(

2

) And I was surprised to see so much farmland. I hadn’t realized France

was an agricultural country.
Ken：

As a matter of fact, I just learned about that in social studies class this morning.
Take a look at this graph on food self-sufficiency.

Aya：

Wow! America and France have never been less than 100 percent food self-sufficient.
And France’s rate was even higher than America’s in the 1990s. That’s surprising.

Ken：

Yes. It’s even more surprising when you consider that most of America’s farms arelarge-scale, unlike the farms in France.

Aya：

According to this graph, the food self-sufficiency rate in Japan is low and kept going
down in the late 1990s till 2000.

Ken：

Yes. There’s not a lot of farmland for such a big population. And the number offarmers has gone way down in recent years.

Aya：

But I read in the newspaper that more young people are going into farming.

Ken：

Really? (3) Look at the rate for Germany. It’s about the same size as Japan,

but it has much more farmland. In the 2010s, its food self-sufficiency rate was morethan twice that of Japan.
Aya：

I see the U.K. is improving. In the 1960s its rate was the lowest, but it kept going up.

Ken：

Our teacher said that that’s because there’s a lot of flat land that can be farmed
efficiently.

Aya：

This graph is really interesting. (

G 次の英文を読み、以下の問いに答えなさい。
There are around 6,000 living languages in the world ― and at least half of those are underserious threat. In every part of the world, languages are disappearing. In fact, one scientist
has said that languages are facing a bigger risk of extinction than birds and mammals.
Professor Steve Sutherland of the University of East Anglia calculated that the past 500 years
have seen 4.5 percent of languages die out ―Awith 1.3 per cent of birds, and 1.9 percent

of mammals.
What is lost if a language is lost? There are some who argue that the extinction of languages
is merely a B symptom of the gradual evolution of our species, where universal communication
is valued, and increasing *homogeneity is just an evolutionary side-effect. Obviously there
could be greatC

if everyone in the world spoke the same language ― some industries

already reflect this, with English a must for pilots and air traffic controllers. But it’s clear that
there is far more *at stake than mere convenience. As languages are lost, whole ways of lifeand sets of knowledge may be lost along with them. Complex religious and social rituals
disappear, oral histories die through lack of telling. Information about plants, animals andenvironments gathered through generations may never be passed on. And the richness ofhuman invention, our D unique gift of talking about what we see around us, would be muchthe poorer.
Put simply, language expresses something about identity, about our place in the world. Ani
Rauhihi, a Maori teacher in New Zealand’s North Island, sums it up:

E

The need for a feeling of identity and connection to one’s past is a big factor in the*resurgence of the Maori language. Maori is the language of New Zealand’s native population
and was the predominant language spoken there before the arrival of the European settlers.
But by the early 20th century, children were punished for speaking Maori at school and very
few schools taught the language. By the 1980s less than 20 percent of Maori knew enough of
the language to be F regarded as native speakers, and many urbanized Maori people had nocontact at all with their language and culture. Now one in four Maori people in New Zealandspeaks the Maori language and around 40 per cent of Maori pre-schoolers attend *totalimmersion schools. Maori is also an official language.
It seems the world may be starting to realize what it is about to lose. *UNESCO is actively
promoting multilingualism and the need to preserve *intangible aspects of culture as well as
the more traditional monuments and national parks. Joseph Poth, head of its languages
division, has spoken of the need for “trilingualism” ― we should all speak our mother tongue,
a “neighbor” language and an international language. Even teaching an endangered languagein schools creates a rescue system, he says.
It may be too late for the languages where only a few speakers remain. It is probable they’reelderly, they speak their mother tongue very little and have forgotten many of the words they
once knew. But it seems that at last the value of these languages is being recognized, and thatis the first step to stopping the tide of loss.
