(A) are often referred to as (B) often to refer to as (C) as often as are referred to (D) are to be often as referred to ※正解(A)。【解説】 (B)と(C)を空所に入れるとこの文の動詞がないことになる。(D)are to be often as referred toの語順がおかしいのは明らか。正解は(A)are often referred to as「しばしば……と呼ばれる」である。foxglove「ジギタリス（植物）」。 3. 空所補充問題 If the Russian Revolution hadn't ousted the Romanovs from power in 1917, their dynasty ----- for some years. (A) had continued (B) may continue (C) continued (D) might have continued ※正解(D)。【解説】 If the Russian Revolution hadn't ousted ... と仮定法過去完了になっているので、(D)might have continuedが空所に入ることになる。これで「もし……しなかったら、〜が続いていたかもしれない」の意味になる。oust「追放する」。 4. 空所補充問題 Islands in the central Pacific Ocean tend to be composed of higher proportions of volcanic rock than those ----- closer to the continents. (A) would locate (B) located (C) can locate (D) locate ※正解(B)。【解説】 locate「置く」はbe locatedで「位置する」の意味を表す。thoseの後にthat/which areが略されていることに気づけば(B) locatedが正解であることが分かる。be composed of ... 「……で構成されている」。 5. 空所補充問題 ----- an American-born painter working in England in the 1770s who depicted contemporary history in his work. (A) Benjamin West was (B) Benjamin West being (C) Benjamin West (D) Being Benjamin West ※正解(A)。【解説】 空所以降にこの文の動詞がないので、(A) Benjamin West wasが正解となる。depict「描く」。 6. 正誤問題 (A)A Molotov cocktail is a glass bottle of (B)flammable liquid (C)stopped with a flaming rag, (D)serves as a crude firebomb. ※正解(D)。serves as → serving as。【解説】 Molotov cocktail「火炎瓶」は可算名詞である。形容詞flammable「可燃性の」に問題はない。stoppedの前にはthat/which isが略されている。servesのままでは前のisと動詞がダブってしまう。ここは分詞を使ってserving as ... とすればいい。 7. 正誤問題 (A)Withholding income tax (B)tends to increase tax revenue, (C)in part because the taxpayer in effect is forced to extend (D)a interest-free loan to the treasury. ※正解(D)。【解説】 a → an。文頭の動名詞Withholdingに問題はない。tend to ... は「 ……する傾向がある」、in partは「部分的には、一つには」の意味。形容詞interest-freeの前に冠詞aがあるが、当然aではなくanにしなくてはいけない。 8. 正誤問題 (A)The Algonquin Indians are Native Americans (B)who originally (C)come to Canada's Ottawa River region thousands (D)of years ago. ※正解(C)。【解説】 come → came。冠詞The、関係代名詞whoに誤りはない。thousands of years ago「何千年も前」が使われているのでcomeは過去形cameにしなければならない。 9. 正誤問題 (A)Any form of government (B)in which the leadership (C)is elected, usually for specified terms of office, is (D)calling a republic. ※正解(D)。【解説】 calling → called。【解説】Any form、前置詞と関係代名詞whichの用法、受け身is electedに問題はない。callingをcalledにしなければ「共和国と呼ばれる」の意味にならない。 10. 正誤問題 The work (A)song of sailors were (B)marked by rhythm in order to help teams of men (C)coordinate (D)their efforts to haul ropes and move heavy objects. ※正解(A)。【解説】 song → songs。主語がThe work songと単数形だが、それに呼応するbe動詞がwereになっている。songsと複数形にしなければ文が成立しない。 II.時事英文 Rich Life (その1；全7回シリーズ) I think people everywhere dream about having lots of money.

Jokes a. A man goes to the doctor because he has a lettuce leaf sticking out of his ear. "Hmmm," the doctor says. "That's strange." The guy replies, "I know. And that's just the tip of iceberg." b. A drunk man stumbles across an evangelical mass-baptism service next to a river. He wades into the water and stands next to the preacher. "My son, are you ready to find Jesus?" the preacher asks. "Yeah, sure," says the drunk. The minister dunks him under the water for a split second and pulls him back up. "Have you found Jesus?" "No, I didn't" says the drunk.

"By all the saints," he says. "Have you found Jesus this time?" The drunk splutters, wipes his eyes and says in exasperation, "Look, are you sure this is where he fell in?" c.

One day my seven-year-old son, Keith, decided to order the kid's combo, which included sausages and eggs with his pancakes. When the waitress asked Keith how he'd like his eggs, I could sense the wheels turning furiously as he searched for the correct response. Suddenly his little face lit up. "Medium rare!" he replied. |
