I-2 TOEIC, TOEFL練習問題解答 (1) TOEIC 1. Part V； Incomplete Sentence練習問題 _______ do you think about the new model? (A) Which (B) What (C) Who (D) Maybe 訳：新しいモデルについてはどう思いますか？ ※正解（B）。What do you think about 〜？ で「〜をどう思いますか？」という決まり文句です。(A) の Which は一定の人・事物の「どれか」という選択を尋ねる場合、(C) の Who は「誰？」と尋ねる疑問詞で、この場合不適切です。 2. Part V; Incomplete Sentence練習問題 After checking the laundry, I found the colors _______ (A) had run (B) running (C) runner (D) run 訳：洗濯物を見てみると、色落ちしていることがわかった。 ※正解（A）。この場合の run は「（色などが洗濯で）落ちる」という意味の自動詞です。(B) の running という現在分詞は、この場合は After checking 〜 という副詞節があるので不適切です。(D) の run を原形不定詞と考えると、find は原形不定詞を補語にはとりませんし、run は自動詞なので「〜させられた」という意味で過去分詞ととることもできません。正解は (A) で found の後に that 節 の that が省略された形です。 3. Part V; Incomplete Sentence練習問題 They've all been _______ away already. (A) took (B) taken (C) taking (D) take 訳：それらはもう持っていかれてしまいました。 ※正解（B）。They've (all) been に注目すると、 という完了時制であることがわかります。過去分詞 been の後に続く語は、(B) か (C) にしぼられます。take away は「〜を持ち去る」という他動詞句で目的語を伴うので、(C) は不可。受動態の完了時制となる (B) が正解になります。 4. Part V; Incomplete Sentence練習問題 That's the store _______ I bought it. (A) that (B) where (C) which (D) there 訳：私がそれを買ったのはその店です。 ※正解（B）。That's the store. と I bought it there. の2文をつなぐ関係詞が入ります。the store を先行詞として接続詞と副詞の働きをする (B) の関係副詞 where が正解です。関係代名詞の (C) which を用いる場合、in which と前置詞が必要です。 5. Part V; Incomplete Sentence練習問題 His students _______ that his class was very boring. (A) continued (B) produced (C) complained (D) bothered 訳：生徒たちは彼の授業はとても退屈だと文句を言った。 ※正解（C）。選択する動詞の目的語となる that 節の「授業がとても退屈だ（boring）」をヒントに、適切な語を選択します。(A) は「続けた」、(B) は 「生み出した」、(D) は 「困らせた」という意味です。(C) のcomplained「不平を言った」が文意に合います。 6. Part V; Incomplete Sentence練習問題 He carried himself with _______. (A) assured (B) assurance (C) assurances (D) assure 訳：彼は堂々と振る舞った。 ※正解（B）。「with＋抽象名詞」で副詞の働きをし、with assurance「確信をもって」という意味になります。名詞の複数形の (C) assurances はここでは適切ではありません。過去分詞の (A) assured、動詞 (D) assure は with の後にはきません。 7. Part V; Incomplete Sentence練習問題 She was still wearing the _______ white dress. (A) flowering (B) flower (C) flowery (D) flowers 訳：彼女は花柄の白い服をまだ着ていました。 ※正解（C）。空所には white dress を修飾する形容詞が入りますが。したがって、(B) flower、(D) flowers は不適切です。(A) の flowering も「花の咲く、花を開く」という意味の形容詞でここでは適切ではありません。(C) の flowery「花模様の」が正解になります。 (2) TOEFL 1. 空所補充問題 Michigan is the second ----- U.S. state east of the Mississippi. (A) large (B) more large (C) larger (D) largest ※正解（D）。【解説】 the second largestで「２番目に大きな」という意味になる。 2. 空所補充問題 Many insects have developed markings that make them appear ----- they belong to species that certain predators find undesirable. (A) when (B) where (C) as though (D) however ※正解（C）。【解説】 空所にas thoughを入れると「斑点（模様）をあたかも……のように見せる」の意味になる。predator「補食動物」、undesirable「嫌な」。 3. 空所補充問題 Economic theory categorizes the mineral wealth of mines together with rain and sunshine ----- "free goods." (A) for (B) to (C) being (D) at ※正解（A）。【解説】 前置詞forには「……として」という意味があるのでこれが正解となる。categorize... for〜「……を〜として分類する」。 4. 空所補充問題 If people would drive more slowly on the freeways, the volume of fuel saved ----- enormous. (A) would be (B) will be (C) is (D) are ※正解（A）。【解説】 If people would... を受けて、空所にはwould be（仮定法）が入る。 5. 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... から仮定法過去完了の文であることがすぐにわかる。これに合わせて空所にはmight have continuedが入る。これで「……だったら、〜が続いていたかも知れない」の意味になる。oust「追放する、失脚させる」。 6. 正誤問題 Thomas Young is (A)best known for his (B)outstanding contributions to the science of optics, (C)although he was also an important physician, physicist and (D)Egyptology. ※正解(D)。【解説】 Egyptology → Egyptologist。best、outstanding「顕著な」、接続詞althoughの用法に問題はない。physician「医者」、physicist「物理学者」に合わせてEgyptology「エジプト学」はEgyptologist「エジプト学者」にしなくてはいけない。 7. 正誤問題 The Bar Mitzvah is (A)a Jewish religious ritual (B)and family (C)celebrating (D)commemorating a boy's 13th birthday. ※正解(C)。【解説】 celebrating → celebration。celebrating、commemorating両方ともing形になっている。ここはfamily celebration commemorating... にすれば「……を記念する家族のお祝」の意味になる。 8. 正誤問題 It is (A)considered a diplomatic interpreter's responsibility (B)to avoid turns of phrase that could be construed as (C)hostile or (D)insult when the speaker had no such intent. ※正解(D)。【解説】 insult → insulting。【解説】hostileは「敵意のある」という意味の形容詞であるが、orの後に名詞insult「侮辱」が来ている。ここでは形容詞形insultingを用いる。construe「解釈する」 9. 正誤問題 A good chef must be able not only to cook (A)with skill and imagination, but also (B)procure the best (C)ingredients and manage (D)a kitchen staff well. ※正解(B)。【解説】 procure → to procure。not onlyの後に不定詞to cookが使われている点に注目。but alsoの後にも、当然、toが来るはずだが、procureのままになっている。 10. 正誤問題 Medical ethics (A)are concerned (B)with the moral problems (C)that (D)arise in the practical application of modern medical science. ※正解(A)。【解説】 are → is。ethics「倫理観」のsにつられて基本的な誤りを見逃してはいけない。ethicsは単数なのでbe動詞はisになる。 II.時事英文 Mourners Pay Final Respects to Kennedy (その2；全5回シリーズ) Earlier, a motorcade brought the coffin of Senator Kennedy to the museum from Hyannis Port, where family members held a funeral Mass earlier in the day at the senator's home.
