【１】次の英文を読んで問いに答えなさい。

A long time ago, a young boy named Abu Hasan lived（ ① ）the desert in the country
we now call Iraq. Abu Hasan was a very talented and kind boy, and he moved to the cityof Baghdad. In Baghdad he worked very hard and became very rich. He had many friends
who loved him, but he never married. His friends often asked him, ② “Why wonʼt you
marry?” and he always said that he had the love of his friends, so he did not need a *bride.
But after many years and many questions, he realized that *even though he had many
good friends that loved him, it was not the same as having a family, so he decided（ ③ ）marry. He talked to the local *matchmaker who told him that the governorʼs daughter,
Djamila, was looking for a husband. So Abu Hasan decided to marry her.

Everyone was so happy for Abu Hasan. All of his friends came to the wedding. It wasthe（ ④ big ）and greatest wedding in Baghdad in many years. The tables were full ofamazing and expensive foods. There were expensive drinks from all over the world, andthe best musicians in Baghdad played for the whole day. In the evening Abu Hasan wentout on to his balcony and threw gold coins to the crowds of poor people gathered below.

Later, when Abu Hasan and his friends were sitting and relaxing, Djamila came out tohim in her ﬁrst wedding dress. Abu Hasan said to himself, ⑤ （“ 1. is 2. most 3. ever 4. I
5. she 6. the 7. beautiful 8. have 9. woman 10. seen ）.” She was wearing a deep green
dress that had many gems and silver on it. In Arabia, brides wear seven dresses for theirwedding. Finally, her seventh and ﬁnal dress was a simple white dress that made her look
more beautiful than the full moon.

After that, Djamila went back to their bedroom to wait for Abu Hasan. But Abu Hasan
felt bad about leaving all his guests who were having such a good time at the party, so hekept eating and drinking with them, and telling them amazing stories of when he was achild in the desert.

特進− 1Finally, it was time for the party to end. Abu Hasan ate and drank a lot and when hetried to stand up, he let out a *fart as loud as a firework. Every guest at the party wentsilent. His friends all quickly started to talk again and *pretend that everything wasnormal. Abu Hasan left the party and walked towards his bedroom, but instead（⑥）

going to his wife, he quickly ran out a side door. He got on his fastest horse and rode as
fast as he could to the nearest port. At the port he got on a ship to India because he wasso *embarrassed.

In India, Abu Hasan worked very hard, and learned the language very quickly. Hesoon became a very important person working for a prince in his town. He made many
new friends. And every night he would go to the（ ⑦ tall ）tower and silently look west
towards Baghdad for a very long time.

At last, after ten years of living in India, Abu Hasan decided to pack up all his things
and return to Baghdad. The prince and all his friends were very sad to see Abu Hasan
leave, but they wished him a safe trip. On the trip from India to Baghdad Abu Hasan
couldnʼt sleep well because he was too *anxious.

When he landed in Baghdad, instead of going straight back to his house, he decided
to *disguise himself and walk around the town to check *whether he could hear anyone
talking about him. After a few days, he was sitting outside a house when he heard a young
girl inside talking to her mother. “Mother, when was I born?” asked the young girl. The
mother laughed and said “That is easy to remember. You were born the day after Abu
Hasan farted!” As soon as Abu Hasan heard this, he said to himself ⑧ “I can never returnhome!”, and then he left Baghdad forever.
