〔Ⅰ〕 次の英文を読み、後の問いに答えなさい。
In Japan, tests are an important part of education. Students have to take tests to get into
university, high school, junior high school and sometimes even elementary schools. But what dothese tests really measure ? Many people think that children only have to memorize facts to score⑴

well on these tests. Few tests adopted to evaluate public school education measure creativity or
problem-solving skills.
Many parents and educators feel that Japanese students are not being prepared for the realworld. As the world becomes more connected, the facts that these students are memorizing caneasily be looked up on the Internet and the tests are becoming more irrelevant. Some teachers are⑵

fed up with the old ways of doing things. They feel that it is time to change how Japanese children
are being taught. The world has changed, and schools have to educate the whole person instead ofpreparing students for tests.
Whole Person is a new system of education. Instead of making students memorize facts anddates, teachers show students how to think for themselves. There needs to be a connection between⑶

students and the world that they are a part of. Students should not just sit and listen and absorb
information from their teachers. They should be questioning, acting and experimenting. In Whole
Person Education, students ask questions and then discover the answers with their classmates. In
the Whole Person classroom, teachers（４ ）to give knowledge to students. Rather, teachers areguides who help the students learn by themselves and from each other.
There are four basic principles of Whole Person Education. First, the best way to learn is bydoing. Children are given a problem and discover their own way of solving it. They might fail again
and again, but that is（５）. Teachers will help guide them toward a possible solution, but theyshould never give them the answer.
A second principle is the importance of working together. In the real world, solutions are rarely
found by just one person alone. Groups of people help each other to solve difficult problems. In aWhole Person classroom, students put their heads together and work with their teachers to answer
questions. The whole class is a group working together.
Helping students understand themselves better is another important principle of Whole PersonEducation. This method is about discovering the world but also about discovering the child.
Students have to try to understand their own ideas and emotions.
Finally, students should understand how they interact with the rest of the world and how theworld interacts with itself. This is a critical principle of the method. （ ６）learning about facts,

students must look deeper. This kind of “big picture” thinking is one of the most important ideas inWhole Person Education.

〔解答番号は 11 〜 15 〕

People often ask me what I enjoy most about living in Japan.
While many people might expect me to mention the delicious food or fascinating culture, I
always have one thing at the top of my list : trains.
Usually when I say this to Japanese people, my answer is met with either laughter or confusion.
After all, trains are just a part of everyday life in Japan. Iʼm sure that for people who grow up here,
it is easy to take the world-class transportation system for granted.
But whether itʼs a short trip around Tokyo or a longer journey on a ＊bullet train, I am always
amazed at the convenience and efficiency of Japanese trains.
That convenience was clear to me two years ago when I had to travel from Tokyo to Osaka as
quickly as possible due to a family emergency. It took a little over three hours to go from my front
door to the doorstep of my ＊in-lawsʼ house. Especially during stressful times, a relaxing trip on abullet train can be a life-saver, and itʼs comforting to know that you can immediately make that typeof trip quickly and safely.
In my homeland of Canada, the distance between the countryʼs two largest cities, Toronto andMontreal, is about the same as between Tokyo and Osaka. But to travel from one city to the next ittakes at least five hours by car ̶ with perfect traffic and weather and no bathroom breaks ̶ andslightly more by train. Flying is an option but flights are expensive, especially when buying tickets
close to the day of departure. The airports in both cities are also far from the city center, making
the journey less convenient. In short, there is no convenient, stress-free way to travel between thetwo cities.
When my wife and her family joined me on a trip to Canada last autumn, they were shocked
at the small size of the subway system in Toronto and the high number of cars packed onto
expressways. When we took a trip to the countryside, they were shocked for a different reason :There was ＊lush farmland and forests as far as the eye could see and too many lakes to count. They
were also surprised to see such a large amount of land with not even a small town nearby.
I realized at that time that there were things I took for granted about my home country as well.
While itʼs okay to appreciate Japan for its wonderful trains, I should also appreciate Canada for its
vast landscapes and natural beauty.
As the saying goes, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence !
