問6
次の英文は、高校生のハルト(Haruto)が英語の授業でクラスの生徒に向けて行ったスピーチの原稿です。英文を読んで、あとの(7)~(ウ)の問いに答えなさい。
Hello, everyone. I’m Haruto. When I was a junior high school student, I didn’t find what I wanted to do in the future. My parents sometimes asked me, “What do you want to do in the future?” I always answered, “I don’t know.” Also, I didn’t have much “self-confidence “in myself. I felt worried about my future, but I was afraid to tell anyone about my problems.
Let me ask you this. Do you talk about your problems to anyone in your family, your school, or your *local community? Please look at these *graphs. Researchers asked young people these questions. Graph 1 and Graph 2 show many young people talk about their problems to someone in their family or school. However, until last year, I didn’t try to talk about my problems to my classmates, my teachers, or my family because I didn’t want them to worry. Look at Graph 3. It shows that only about 15% of young people talk about their problems to someone in their local community. Many young people may not choose to do this, but for me, talking with ( ) gave me a new way to think about my problems.

I think all of you have heard of Kamome *Cafe. It *is run by an *NPO. The cafe is in our school and opens every Thursday after school. Though the cafe is supported by Kamome High School, the staff members are local people living near our school. In Kamome Cafe, we can read books, listen to music, talk with others, play *board games, or relax. When we go there, we can get drinks or some snacks *for free.
In my first year, my *homeroom teacher, Mr. Yamada, told us about this cafe, but I never had time to go there because I was so busy with my club and school activities. One day during summer vacation, I felt tired after finishing my club activity, so ( ① ). Then, I saw the sign for Kamome Cafe and went in the cafe. A young staff member smiled and said “Hi,” and gave me some apple juice. Though the cafe was in our school, it *seemed to be a different place.
While I was drinking the apple juice, Makoto-san, a staff member at the cafe, came and talked to me. We talked about our favorite music, manga, and shops. We liked similar things and I really enjoyed talking with him. After that day, I visited Kamome Cafe every Thursday after school and then, ( ② ). Makoto-san told me that he was a student at a cooking school and worked at a restaurant. He introduced me to other staff members there. All of them had interesting stories.For example, Shun-san studied fashion and made clothes from old kimonos. Yuka-san was a researcher who studied medicine. They were friendly and asked me many questions. I felt safe and *comfortable, so I could tell them that I worried about my future and had no self-confidence in myself. They told me that when they were high school students, they felt the same way. But by trying different things and getting help from others, they found what they wanted to do.
Makoto-san said that a lot of his friends and he did not have self-confidence when they were in high school. He also said, “People get more self-confidence when they become older and more “capable.” By talking to the staff members at Kamome Cafe, I learned it was important to share my problems with others. After this, ( ③ ).
So this is my message. Don’t keep your problems inside. Instead, talk and share them with others. Doing this can help you think about your problems in a new and clearer way. Remember you are not alone. Thank you for listening.

問8
次の英文を読んで、あとの(7)~(ウ)の問いに答えなさい。
Amira and Yamato are Kamome High School students. Amira came to Japan from Bangladesh two years ago. Ms. Smith is their English teacher. They are talking in the classroom after school.
Ms. Smith: Hi, Amira and Yamato. What are you doing?
Amira: We are talking about our presentation in your class. We are going to make a presentation about solutions to the problem of *unstable *access to *nutrition. But Yamato doesn’t think this is a big problem in Japan.
Yamato: Here in Japan, I can buy food anywhere, so I don’t understand why this is a big problem.
Ms. Smith: What do you think about his opinion, Amira?
Amira: That may be true now, but in the future, there may be a different situation in Japan.For example, Japan imports animal feed for chickens, cows, and pigs from other countries. These days, because of several world events, the price of animal feed has become higher than before. Look at these graphs. In ①Graph 1, the price of animal feed was 63,000 yen per ton in 2016. It stayed between 63,000 yen and 67,000 yen until 2020. But after that, the price continued to rise and reached the highest price in eight years in 2023.
Ms. Smith: So, because of this, the price of *meat is also getting higher.
Yamato: Now, I understand why my favorite hamburger got very expensive these days.
Amira: Right! And in the future, more Japanese people may not get enough protein from meat. Here is one more example. To produce 1kg of beef, 11kg of corn is needed.Japan imports almost all of its corn used for animal feed from other countries. Look at ②Graph 2. It shows that Japan imports this feed the most from the U.S. More than 40% is imported from Brazil. 6% is from Argentina and 6% is from other countries.
Yamato: I see.So, if Japan doesn’t get animal feed from foreign countries, it will be reallydifficult to *raise chickens, cows, and pigs, right?
Amira: Yes, that’s right.
Ms. Smith: You know a lot about these *agricultural topics, Amira.
Amira: Thank you. I have been learning about these topics since I was in junior high schoolbecause my dream is to be an agricultural scientist in the future.
Yamato: Oh, I didn’t know that. I think I am beginning to understand the problem. Let’s try to find a good solution!
One week later, Ms. Smith talks to Amira and Yamato. They are talking in the classroom after school.
Ms. Smith: Hi, Amira and Yamato. Have you found any good ideas for your presentation?
Amira: We have found an interesting solution to the problem of unstable access to nutrition, but it’s not a perfect solution.
Ms. Smith: Can you talk more about it?
Yamato: Yes. We think we can get protein from soy meat. Soy meat is made from soybeans.
Ms. Smith: That’s interesting. What are the good points of soy meat?
Yamato: To produce soy meat, we don’t need much water. For example, when we produce 100 g of beef, we need about 2,060L of water. However, we just need about 105 L of water to produce 100g of soy meat. Also, Japanese people eat many things made from soybeans like tofu, miso, and natto. So I think many Japanese people will like the idea of eating soy meat.
Ms. Smith: I see. Are there any problems with soy meat?
Yamato: Yes. Japan imports almost 90% of soybeans from other countries. Also, soy meat is not very popular in Japan.
Ms. Smith: I see. Can this idea also be an effective solution in your country.
Amira? Amira: Yes, I think so. In Bangladesh, some people do not get enough protein from meat or fish in their daily life. There are many reasons for this, but I think eating soy meat can help these people get more protein.
Ms. Smith: Does Bangladesh grow a lot of soybeans?
Amira: No, it doesn’t. Actually, Bangladesh imports over 90% of soybeans from other countries. So,( ) Though the government helps farmers grow soybeans, it will take time to grow enough soybeans in my country.
Yamato: Soy meat is not the only answer. We should still try to look for other solutions to this problem.
Ms. Smith: That’s a great point. I agree. You did well, Amira and Yamato! You identified a problem, tried to find a solution, and then thought a lot about the strong and weak points of that solution. Those steps will help you learn better. I can’t wait to listen to your presentation.
