Mr. and Mrs. MacDonald lived in a small town in *Scotland with their three sons. One

Please come and have Christmas ( a ) us in our new house. It’s very big so you can all
stay here. Come on December 24th. We’re going out that evening and we’ll be home late,after two o’clock, but you’ll find the *key for the front door in a small box behind the tree. We’ll
see you then.
“That’s nice,” Mr. MacDonald said.

“①It’ll be interesting to see their new house.”The

three boys were excited because they liked London.

“What do we do now?” Mrs. MacDonald asked. “There are no lights in the house.”“Remember Tom’s letter: They’ll be home very late this evening, after two o’clock,” Mr.

Mrs. MacDonald answered, “No, it’s not my brother and his family … maybe they’re photosof their friends.”
They finished their tea and went up to the bedrooms. They were tired after the long trip

The next day was Christmas and the MacDonald family came down for breakfast. They
went ( e ) the kitchen and saw a man and a woman there, but they didn’t know them!

次の英文を読み、各問に答えなさい。

*The Olympic Games
Many people in Japan were ①( excite ) to hear that *the Olympics will be coming to Tokyo forthe second time in 2020.
The games that we see this year will be very different from the first Olympic Games that wereplayed in *Greece almost 2,800 years ago.
One of the largest differences between ア)the *modern and *ancient Olympics is the number of
events. At the 2020 Olympics in Japan, there will be more than three hundred events, which willtake about a month to finish.
However, at the first Olympics, there was only one event. It was a two hundred meter running
event.
The event became more popular, so more than seven new events were added. For a long time, it
only took one day to finish all of them. Usually more than ten thousand people came to the stadium
in *Olympia, Greece ②( watch ).
Just like our modern games, the ancient Olympics were held every four years. Only men from
Greece could join the games. There were no women or men from other countries. Men from cities
all over Greece came. If there was a war between two cities, the fighting stopped so that the menfrom those cities could go to the games.
The ancient Olympics continued for about a thousand years until the year 393 when the emperor
decided to stop ③( have ) them. That was the end of the ancient Olympics. For about 1500 years
there were no games. Then, in 1894, a man from France named *Baron Pierre de Coubertin decided
to bring them back. It [ decided / modern Olympic Games / that Greece / the first / would host /was ].
After each event in the modern Olympics, the top three athletes receive *gold, silver, and bronze
medals. But this hasn’t always been true. In the ancient games, winners did not receive medals.
They got *branches from an *olive tree.
In the first modern Olympics in 1896, there were no gold medals. The first place athlete received
a silver medal and the second place athlete got bronze.
Four years later, in the 1900 Olympic Games, winners were given *trophies, not medals.
In the third Olympics in 1904, athletes were finally given gold, silver, and bronze medals like they
are today.
Another Olympic *tradition ④( begin ) at the 1928 games. This is the lighting of the Olympic
fire. When the Olympics begin, a *torch is carried into the stadium and is used to light this fire.
The fire in the torch always comes from Olympia, Greece and is carried to the place where thegames are being played.
Sometimes, because of rain or wind, イ)the fire goes out while it is being carried. When that
- 3 -4-

happens, another torch is given to the runner. Other torches are always ⑤( keep ) near the runners
to use if they need one. It is a rule that the fire in all of these torches has to come from the sameplace in Greece.
In 2000 a special torch was made, so swimmers near *the Great Barrier Reef could take it under
the water.
Finally, when people think of the Olympics, they often imagine the Olympic *flag.

It wasdesigned by Pierre de Coubertin in 1913 and hasn’t changed since then. The five *rings on the flag
*represent the five *continents: Europe, *Asia, Africa, America, and Australia. The colors from allof the countries’ flags in the world can be found in the rings. The white area behind the rings
represents peace because ウ)white is the color we see when all other colors of light are put together.
