The university plans to charge a membership fee at its health club starting in January. The fee for using the facilities will be $20 per student. The university has made this decision in light of the deteriorating condition of the equipment and the poor state of the health club itself. Renovations will be made during the Christmas break. All fees will go toward the costs of renovation and the purchase of new equipment.

W :  Hey, Pete are you going to join the health club after Christmas?


M :   If it were free, sure. But since it’s not, I guess I’m not.


W :  It’s only twenty bucks.


M :  Twenty bucks Is a lot of money to some people, Sue.  These renovations and new equipment should  be paid by the university.、We pay enough here already. They charge us for everything books, lab fees, photocopying, and late fees at the library. It’s too much.


W :  Yeah, I guess so, but the health club really needs this. It’s in bad shape, and the equipment is ancient.


M :  You know most of that equipment is less than two years old? I talked to a guy in the Athletic Department, and he said it was the football coach and team that pushed for the renovations. And they don’t have to pay since they are on a sports team.


W: No, that  can’t be true. They won’t make us pay and have some others use it for free.

M: You’ll see. Wait until January. It’s not fair. If we pay. they-should pay also.

Question

The man expresses his opinion about the students having to pay for the health club. State his opinion, and explain the reasons he gives for holding that opinion.


Sample Response (回答例)

学生の意見 + 2つの理由  を述べます。

The man is not pleased that the students have to pay for admission to the school’s health club. (← Option)  Even though the fee is small, he thinks it is a lot of money for him to

spend. Plus, he states that he doesn’t like the fact that the students have to pay

for things like books, late fees, and lab fees in addition to their tuition.

He feels that the school is charging them enough for lots of different things already. (←Reason 1)  Finally, he believes that it is very unfair that members of the student body have to pay but members of the school’s sports teams do not,( ←  Reason 2) especially because the football team and coach were the ones who wanted to have the changes made.

▮ Listen

STEP 1 | Listening & Note Taking | Listen to a lecture , and take notes.

スクリプト

I’d like to point out something about art from the past. In previous eras, making art was expensive. Most artists required patrons merely to afford the paint, canvas, and everything else they needed, and these patrons, naturally, kept most of the artwork in their homes for their own personal viewing. This made art inaccessible to most people. The artists, quite understandably, didn’t appreciate this, so they came up with two ways to enable the public to admire their work.For one, many artists began using cheaper materials. This let them work without a sponsor. This way, they could produce the art they wanted to and also retain possession of their art. They were then free to display it wherever they wanted to. This, naturally, permitted many more people to see their work. Of course, one drawback to this approach was that the lower quality of the paint and other materials meant their work often faded quickly. Fortunately, many of these works can now be restored using modern methods.Another thing artists did was to display their art both outdoors and in public places. Remember that artists didn’t just do paintings. They did statues, sculptures, and many other kinds of art. Take a look at any cathedral. There is art everywhere. Look at the statues and the stained glass window in them. They’re all works of art. And consider one of the greatest examples of art anywhere-Michelangelo’s work in the Sistine Chapel. How many thousands or millions of people have seen his artwork? He attained what most artists strive for: for the greatest number of people to admire his work.

Question

Using points and examples from the lecture, explain the two different theories on why the dinosaurs became extinct.

 STEP 2  |Organizing 解答の組み立て| Ask yourself the following questions and organize your ideas


  1. What is the topic of the professor’s lecture?
  2. According to the professor, what happened when a meteor or asteroid struck Earth?
  3. Why do people believe that this strike caused the dinosaurs to become extinct?
  4. What do scientists say were the results of the eruption of a super volcano?

解答例

1.  The professor describes two of the more popular theories on why the dinosaurs became extinct.

2.  After an object from space hit Earth, lots of dirt and debris were thrown into the air, which decreased the amount of sunlight getting through to Earth.

3.  Because there was less sunlight, plants died, so herbivorous dinosaurs no longer had a food source and died, and then the carnivores died soon afterwards.

4.  After a super volcano erupted, it spewed carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which caused global warming to occur rapidly.

5.  The dinosaur eggs reacted badly to the heat, so more males were born, which meant that the dinosaurs could not reproduce.

STEP 6  | Compare 比較 | Listen to a sample response, and compare it with yours.


Sample Response 模範解答



The professor states that dinosaurs once ruled Earth but suddenly became extinct. She gives two different theories to explain their disappearance. The first is that a meteor or asteroid struck Earth. She even says that some scientists know where it hit. The strike sent dirt up into the”atmosphere, which hid the planet from the sun. It got colder, and there was no sunlight, so all the plants died. Without food sources, the dinosaurs all died. The second theory is that there was an eruption of a super volcano. This filled the air with carbon dioxide, which caused the greenhouse effect to start on Earth. When subjected to heat, lizard and dinosaur eggs change. Females in eggs become males. So there were no more females being born, which meant that the dinosaurs couldn’t reproduce.

Have you heard about the positive externality effect? The positive externality effect is kind of a difficult theory to explain. Basically, it means that certain actions in society can help society as well as the individual. Let’s see. A common example is the flu shot. People can help themselves by getting a flu shot and keeping healthy. They might save some money by not missing work, avoiding the doctor and not having to pay for medicine. They also help society as a whole by not getting others sick. This is the positive externality effect. Of course, sometimes people don’t care about society and don’t get their shots. This hurts all of society, not just the individual. The government can help by reducing the costs of the shots or forcing people to get their shots.

The positive externality effect is a theory that when one person or a group of people is helped by something, the effect that it has on them will positively affect society as a whole. When a person gets a flu shot for example, it helps the person who won’t get the flu and it also helps everyone else that the person might have infected to.

まずはリスニング

リスニングでは教授があるトピックについて定義し、それに対して2種類の例を挙げます。この内容は毎回同じ形式なので、慣れることが大切です。

以下サンプル問題から解説していきます


音声スクリプト

We all know about the Importance of conservation and keeping our environment clean. But how do we convince others to do the same thing? Well, there are many ways. But I want to tell you about two of the most effective ways. The first is by utilizing moral persuasion, and the second is by encouraging people to get involved by volunteering.By utilizing moral persuasion, we can appeal to people’s sense of morality. Does everyone ­remember Smokey the Bear?, His motto was; “Only you can prevent forest fires. ” You probably remember the TV cartoon character, but  did you know Smokey was a real bear? Some firemen saved him from a forest fire. The National Forest Service used the image of a cute bear cub to encourage people to protect their environment and not start forest fires. They were using a cute animal to convey a moral message. Now, how about volunteering? Have you ever volunteered to pick up trash on the side of the road? Didn’t you feel great afterwards? Sure you did. You probably realized how much trash there was and how important it was to clean it up.  If more people started volunteering to do this, they would reach the same conclusion. They’d get out, help clean and realize they should be more responsible.

解答に役立つ要点のメモ取りが重要です。
