The Olympics are big international sport events which are held every four years. A lot of athletes practice very hard toget medals. People think the purpose of the Olympics is to win and to get medals. Actually the Olympics have anotherpurpose. It is to build a peaceful and better world through sport because it has the power to inspire a large number ofpeople. The Olympics give people a chance to think about problems happening around the world.
In the first Olympics in 1896, only men could join the games. People thought it was unfair. In the nineteenth century,
there was a lot of discrimination in the world. In the next Olympics in 1900, the IOC decided both men and women could
join the games. After that Olympics, the idea of equality between men and women spread and more women started playing
sports. In the twentieth century, there were a lot of wars and natural disasters. The number of refugees increased in theworld. They couldn’t join the Olympics. So, the IOC decided to invite them to the Olympics as players. Ten refugees fromfour different countries made one team and joined the Olympics in Brazil in 2016 for the first time. The IOC wanted tosay that everyone shouldn’t be unfair.
In the twentieth century, destroying the environment was a big problem. London also had big problems of theenvironment and wanted to solve them. The London Olympics 2012 was held with the idea of global sustainability. Astadium for the London Olympics was built to support this idea. Its roof was designed like a cup to collect rainwater. Therainwater was used for toilets. The stadium saved 40% of water use by recycling rainwater. The stadium also savedelectricity. Natural wind was used to keep the stadium cool and the sunlight was used to keep bright the inside of thestadium.
The Tokyo Olympics was held last year. It had the same idea of global sustainability as the London Olympics. TheTokyo Olympic Organizing Committee wanted to make the Tokyo Olympics special. It decided to use recycled things
because Japan didn’t have a lot of natural resources. In the Olympic Village for the Tokyo Olympics, cardboard beds wereused. Cardboard was made of recycled paper. Cardboard beds were strong, easy to use, and could be recycled. Acompany made podiums of daily plastic waste. About 2,000 supermarkets and 113 schools helped the company collectplastic waste. 98 plastic podiums were made. Another company made the uniforms of volunteers of plastic waste. The
most surprising event was a project called “Everyone’s Medal Project” by the Tokyo Olympic Organizing Committee. It
announced, “Please donate the old electronic devices you don’t use anymore.” About 80,000kg of old electronic devices weredonated and 5,000 medals were made of the metals in the old electronic devices. Through these recycling activities for theTokyo Olympics, Japanese people had a chance to think about how to solve the problems of natural resources.
The Olympics show people in the world the problems of the time. Thanks to the Olympics, people can get the power to
get over the problems. A lot of people work together to solve them and the world has become better little by little. To
make the world even better, we should understand the true purpose of the Olympics.

3３ 次の英文は中学３年生の Koyuki が 30-day challenge（チャレンジ)について書いたレポートです。そのレポートを読んであとの問いに答えなさい。
― Summer vacation report ―Koyuki Tanaka
About（①）

I often visit an interesting website on the Internet. Its name is “TED Talks”. It’s a website which has many videosof presentations. This website is free, so money is not necessary at all. It is said that more than one billion people visit
this website every day. “T” of TED comes from technology. “E” of TED comes from energy and “D” comes from design.
We can watch various presentations about technology, energy, and design. We can also watch a lot of presentations aboutother subjects such as global warming, endangered animals, and climate changes. People who visit this website areamazed at thousands of presentations. We can learn many different ideas through the presentations. I have watched
the presentations given by an athlete, a programmer, and a researcher so far. Most of the presentations are given in
English so I think the website is good for studying English.
About（②）

One day, I watched an amazing presentation given by an American. His name is Matt Cutts. He talked about a 30day challenge. Because his idea is actually very simple, everyone can try it. According to him, we don’t need any money
to begin. First, we need to find the thing that we have wanted to do. If we cannot find it, we can start something new.
We can choose something easy. Then, we must keep doing it in our daily life for thirty days. He says something will
happen after the challenge. Matt Cutts talked about his challenge as an example. He tried to write a book. He wrote
about 1,500 words every day before he went to bed. Thirty days later, he finished writing the book.
About（③）

After I watched his presentation, I decided to read five pages of an easy English book every day for thirty days because
it was very hard for me to read English. I read five pages just before I started doing homework every day. It was hard toread five pages for the first week. It always took thirty minutes because there were a lot of difficult words that I didn’t
understand. So I often had to use a dictionary to understand the difficult words. The second week, I could read the bookmore easily. It took fifteen minutes every day. The next week, I decided to try to understand the story though some words
were difficult. I stopped using the dictionary. I could finish reading faster than before. It took only ten minutes. ThenI felt reading the English book was a lot of fun for the first time. The fourth week, I found that I enjoyed reading the book.
I could understand the story better than before. I finished my 30-day challenge successfully. Since then I have read an
English book for fifteen minutes every day when I am on the bus to school. Surprisingly I have already read ten Englishbooks so far.
About（④）

Two weeks ago, I told my friends, Kenta and Momoko, about my challenge. Kenta was very amazed at my story andgot very interested in a 30-day challenge. He is a member of the basketball club. He wants to run faster and longer
than other team members. He decided to run from his house to the beach early in the morning. He says he will begin
his challenge next week. Momoko has already started her challenge. She usually watched TV for four hours at night.
So she decided to watch TV for just thirty minutes every day. She says that she can have a lot of free time. Instead ofwatching TV, she tries something that she hasn’t done. For example, she reads books. She cooks dinner. She helps
mother clean the rooms. She also says that she feels happy because she talks a lot with family every day. I’m glad to4

hear that. I want them to finish their challenges successfully. I’m looking forward to the good results of their challenges.
About the things I feelI am happy now. This 30-day challenge changed me. That was awesome experience. I learned that it is very
important to keep doing something. I’m thinking about next new challenge now and I hope to get another wonderfulexperience.
