公式集、全トピックの解法の要点、6 問の演習問題。完全な解答は巻末にあります。
“Smoking harms almost every organ in the body. It raises the risk of lung cancer, heart disease and stroke. Quitting at any age brings health benefits.” What is the author’s main message?
“Only 30 minutes after taking the new pill, I felt better,” said one customer in an advertisement. “It must be the best headache pill ever made.” Why is this weak evidence that the pill works?
Choose the correct word: “We ___ in the front row yesterday.”
Choose the correct verb for formal (especially American) English: “The policy requires that every visitor ___ a mask.”
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “A blood pressure reading is objective data.”
Choose the word that best completes the sentence: “The nurse spoke in a ___ voice so the frightened child would feel safe.”
答え: C · Smoking is harmful, and quitting helps at any age.
The passage describes the harms of smoking and states that quitting at any age brings benefits.
答え: C · It is one person’s experience, not a controlled study.
A single testimonial cannot show that the pill caused the improvement. Headaches often ease on their own, so a controlled study with many people is needed.
答え: D · sat
“Sit” has the past tense “sat”. “Set” means to place an object and does not fit here.
答え: A · wear
The subjunctive uses the base form of the verb, even with a singular subject: “that every visitor wear”. British English often uses “should wear” instead, but US-style exams expect the subjunctive.
答え: D · Observable and measurable
Objective data can be observed or measured, such as vital signs or lab results.
答え: D · soothing
Soothing means gently calming and comforting.
