【必答問題 5 日常使う物のデザインをする際には標準化 (standardization) という方法がある。 という内容に続く次の英文を読んで、あとの問いに答えよ。(配点44) If we examine the history of advances in all technological fields, we see that some improvements come naturally through the technology itself, while others come through standardization. The early history of the automobile is a good example. The first cars were very difficult to operate. They required strength and skill beyond the abilities of many. Some problems were solved through automation. Other aspects of cars and driving were standardized through the long process of international standards committees: . On which side of the road to drive (constant within countries) country, but variable across On which side f the car the driver sits (depends upon which side of the road the car is driven) -The (2) of essential components: steering wheel, brake, clutch, and accelerator (the same, whether on the left- or right-hand side of the car) Standardization is one type of cultural constraint. With standardization, once you have learned to drive one car, you feel confident that you can drive any car, anyplace in the world. Standardization provides a major breakthrough in usability. I have enough friends on national and international standards committees to realize that the process f determining an internationally accepted standard is laborious. Even when all members agree on the merits of standardization, the task of selecting standards becomes a long, political issue. A small company can standardize its products without too much difficulty, but it is much more difficult for an industrial, national, or international body to agree to standards. There even exists a standardized procedure for establishing national and international standards. organizations works on standards. First, a set of national and international Then when a new standard is proposed, it must work its way through each organization's approval process. Standards are usually the result of a *compromise among the various competing positions, which can often be an inferior compromise. Sometimes the answer is to agree on (4 ). Look at the existence I both metric and *English units; of left-hand- and 18 right-hand-drive automobiles. There are several international standards for the *voltages and *frequencies of electricity, and several different kinds of electrical plugs and sockets- which cannot interchanged. With all these difficulties and with the continual advances in technology, are standards really necessary? Yes, they are. Take the everyday, clock. It's standardized. Consider how much trouble you would have telling time with a backward clock, where the hands revolved "counterclockwise." A few such clocks exist, primarily as humorous conversation pieces. When a clock truly violates standards, such as (the one in Figure 1, it is difficult to determine what time is being displayed. Why? The logic behind the time display is identical to that of conventional clocks: there are only two differences - the hands move in the opposite direction (counterclockwise) and the location of "12," usually at the top, has been moved. This clock is just as logical as the standard one. It. bothers us because we have standardized on a different scheme, on the very definition of the term clockwise. Without such standardization, clock reading would be more difficult: you'd always have to figure out the "mapping.

2010 解答用紙を6/1(木)に提出 解説は英語でします。 【1】 次の英文を読んで、後の設問に答えよ。 (配点 50) A few years ago, a certain famous university in Japan asked a unique question as its entrance examination in English. The question was this: Write a reply in English to a junior high school student who doesn't like studying. He says he has no intention of going abroad, so he doesn't think he needs to study English. Nor does he want to get a job in which the knowledge of math or science is required. He, therefore, insists that he cannot understand the reason he is forced every day to study subjects he is not interested in. As an entrance examination, it's not very difficult to write an answer to this question. (2) you take it seriously, however, it touches on such a profound aspect of human nature that it is worth thinking about. Fundamentally, why do you have to study? What is learning for? Would you still like to study even if there were no schools or examinations in the world? In my opinion, it is possible to answer such questions from a practical and essential point of view. First, it is not rare for anyone to find changes in their own preferences or desires over time. Sometimes we find ourselves possessing no interest in what we thought to be precious before. Sometimes we are surprised to realize that what we thought to be of little value is so important. So it is quite hard, especially for young people, to predict actually what one will want in the future, say, ten years from now. That's why it is highly desirable for students to prepare for their future by increasing their knowledge and improving their intelligence. Whatever job one may get, it is quite (4) that knowledge or intelligence gets in the way. This can be demonstrated partly by many adults confessing that they should have studied harder. ( 5 ), it's only while one is young that one has a good memory and can absorb and retain a vivid impression of what one has learned. Next, I would like to talk about a more subtle viewpoint. Essentially, no human beings can be satisfied with what they already have, and everyone has, at 1921 the bottom of their heart, the desire for a better existence. Please do not interpret (67 INT this only in terms of materialism or religious belief. Of course, food, clothing. and housing are important. Still, ( 7 ). Also, in the present age, it is difficulí to feel there is anything in the belief that God will come to help you have a better existence some day. Even if all of your basic needs are met, without one important thing, you cannot feel that your life is meaningful. This one thing is the ambition to improve yourself. When you learn something you didn't know before, you will surely feel the satisfaction that no other element in life can give. In this sense, learning will enable you to broaden your world, giving you the joy of knowing. In short, learning is an important way to make your own life richer.

次の英文を読んで, 設問に答えなさい。 [5] The headline grabs your attention: "The ancient tool used in Japan to boost memory." You've been The Japanese art of racking up clicks online more forgetful recently, and maybe this mysterious instrument from the other side of the world, no less! could help out? You click the link, and hit play on the video, awaiting this information that's bound to change your life. The answer? A soroban (abacus). Hmm, () それは私がどこに鍵を置いたか覚えておく助けになりそうには ないですよね? This BBC creation is part of a series called "Japan 2020," a set of Japan-centric content looking at various inoffensive topics, from the history of Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki pancakes to pearl divers. The abacus entry, along with a video titled "Japan's ancient philosophy that helps us accept our flaws," about kintsugi (a technique that involves repairing ceramics with gold-or silver-dusted lacquer), cross over into a popular style of exploring the country: Welcome to the Japan that can fix you. For the bulk of the internet's existence, Western online focus toward the nation has been of the "weird Japan" variety, which zeroes in rare happenings and micro "trends," but presents them as part of everyday life, usually just to entertain. This sometimes veers into "get a load of this country" posturing to get more views online. It's not exclusive to the web traditional media indulges, too but it proliferates online. Bagel heads, used underwear vending machines, rent-a-family services - it's a tired form of reporting that has been heavily criticized in recent times, though that doesn't stop articles and YouTube videos from diving into "weird Japan." These days, wacky topics have given way to celebrations of the seemingly boring. This started with the global popularity of Marie Kondo's KonMari Method of organizing in the early 2010s, which inspired books and TV shows. It's online where content attempts to fill a never-ending pit - where breakdowns of, advice and opinions about Kondo emerged the most. Then came other Japanese ways to change your life. CNBC contributor Sarah Harvey tried kakeibo, described in the headline as "the Japanese art of saving money." This "art" is actually just writing things down in a notebook. Ikigai is a popular go-to, with articles and videos popping up all the time explaining the mysterious concept of ... having a purpose in life. This isn't a totally new development in history, as Japanese concepts such as wa and wabi sabi have long earned attention from places like the United States, sometimes from a place of pure curiosity and sometimes as pre-internet "life hacks" aimed making one's existence a little better. (B) The web just made these inescapable. There's certainly an element of exoticization in Western writers treating hum-drum activities secrets from Asia. There are also plenty of Japanese people helping to spread these ideas, albeit mostly in the form of books like Ken Mogi's "The Little Book of Ikigai." It can result in dissonance. Naoko Takei Moore promotes the use of donabe, a type of cooking pot, and was interviewed by The New York Times for a small feature this past March about the tool. Non- Japanese Twitter users, in a sign of growing negative reactions to the "X, the Japanese art of Y" presentations, attacked the piece... or at least the headline, as it seemed few dove the actual content of the article (shocking!), which is a quick and pleasant profile of Takei Moore, a woman celebrating her country's culinary culture. Still, despite the criticism by online readers, the piece says way more about what English-language readers want in their own lives than anything about modern Japan. That's common in all of this content, and points to a greater desire for change, whether via a new cooking tool or a "Japanese technique to overcome laziness." The Japan part is just flashy branding, going to a country that 84% of Americans view positively find attention-grabbing ideas for a never-ending stream of online content. And what do readers want? Self-help. Wherever they can get it. Telling them to slow down and look inside isn't nearly as catchy as offering them magical solutions from ancient Japan.
