Keita :  Good question! The marigolds Ⓒ【me, make, help】 a safe vegetable garden.

Keita : Right. I want to choose safe ways for the environment when I plant vegetables. ( E )marigolds is one good way.

大問4 英作文

問題文

次の英文を読んで、あとの(1)~(6)の問いに答えなさい。

Hikari is a high school student. She likes English and she enjoys communicating with her American friend, Fred. One day, she sent an e-mail to him.


【E-mail from Hikari to Fred】

 Hello, Fred. How are you? I’m enjoying myhigh school life, but I have Ⓐ a big question now, and I want your opinion.
 Today, my friend, Yuri, and I talked about our future. Now I’m interested in art history and I want to study about it after I finish high school. When I said so to Yuri, she asked me, “Will you be a teacher or a researcher in the future?” I said, “I have no idea about my future job now. I just want to study about art history because I’m interested in it.” Yuri was really surprised to hear my answer. She decided her goal first before she decided what she would study.
 Fred, you want to be a doctor and you are studying hard to achieve your goal, right ? Should I decide my future job before I decide what to study?

【E-mail from Fred to Hikari】

 Thank you for your e-mail, Hikari. I’m doing well. Your question is difficult. Now I’m studying to achieve my goal,
 but I will keep studying after I become a doctor. And I also enjoy studying subjects which are not related to my dream. For example, in the U.S., many schools have drama classes. Most students will not be actors, but drama class is very popular. I like it. I think we can improve some skills through drama classes. For example, we sometimes make our own stories. My drama teacher says we can be good at creating something new through this activity.Also, now I can talk more clearly than before.
 My brother studies math at university, but he is taking a music class, too. He says he can learn good teamwork in the class. You should study your favorite subjects. You can improve some skills by doing so.

Hikari thought Fred’s opinion was interesting. She also likes music though she won’t be a musician. “If 【 B 】through learning, I’ll be happy,” she thought.
One week later, Fred introduced a website article to Hikari. It was an article for students written by auniversity professor.

【The website article】

 You may think like this. “Why do I have to study this subject? I don’t like it. It isn’t related to my goal.” I can understand your feelings, but is it really a good idea to study only your favorite things?
 Let me tell you about Ⓒone good example, Florence Nightingale. She is one of the most famous nurses in the world. She tried to make clean hospitals. She needed to show that it was important to make clean environments to save people’s lives. She had the knowledge of math and statistics. By using that knowledge, she created her original graphs and showed that dirty environments would threaten people’s lives.
 Do you understand what this story means ? You don’t know what will be useful in the future. For example, in the future, you may find problems you want to solve. Then, some knowledge may help you. Or you can create something new by using that knowledge.
You may not use it in the future, but it will be so fun to learn something new. Enjoy learning a lot of things. By doing so, you can broaden your world.
 My father was a science teacher. He is 75 years old, but now, he is studying classic literature at university. He says he is so happy to learn something new.
