ライティング2問合計32点満点。合格者の目安は約70%=22〜23点。意見論述では最低12点/16点を死守!

🅰️ 安全合格プラン

20分の時間配分マスター — 5ステップ戦略

⏱ 意見論述に使える時間は約20分!

R+W90分。要約に15〜20分使うと、意見論述には約20分が目安。

STEP 1 ⏱ 3分 — TOPIC読解+POINTS選び+構成メモ

TOPICを読み賛否を即決。4つのPOINTSから英語で書きやすい2つを選ぶ。余白に日本語でメモ。

STEP 2 ⏱ 2分 — 序論を書く(20〜25語)

テンプレートに当てはめるだけ。立場+選んだPOINTS2つを明示。

STEP 3 ⏱ 10分 — 本論①②を書く(各40〜50語)

核心パート!各パラで「主張→理由→具体例→結び」の流れ。1パラ5分。

STEP 4 ⏱ 2分 — 結論を書く(15〜20語)

序論の言い換えで締める。同じ表現を使い回さない!

STEP 5 ⏱ 3分 — 見直し(ここで1〜2点救える!)

スペルミス・三単現・冠詞・時制・語数を確認。この3分が合否を分ける!

POINTS選びの3ステップ判定法

🔥 本心は関係ない!「英語で書きやすい方」を選べ!

1

4つのPOINTSに「賛成理由」「反対理由」を日本語で一言メモ

10秒で直感的にメモ。英語にしやすいかを判断。

2

「具体例」がパッと浮かぶ2つを選ぶ

For example, … に続く文が思いつくかが最重要。具体例が浮かばないPOINTは不採用!

3

賛成・反対のどちらが「2つとも書きやすい」か決める

迷ったら賛成側が書きやすいことが多い。英語で理由を言いやすい方を選ぶのが鉄則。

💡 実践例で理解しよう(2024年度第3回の実際の問題)

TOPIC: Should people be banned from keeping dangerous animals as pets?
POINTS: ● Animal welfare ● Endangered species ● Freedom of choice ● Safety

Safety → 具体例すぐ浮かぶ(隣人やペットへの危険)→ 採用!
Animal welfare → 具体例浮かぶ(狭い空間で苦しむ)→ 採用!
△ Endangered species → やや書きにくい → 不採用
△ Freedom of choice → 反対理由だが具体例が弱い → 不採用
賛成(banすべき)× Safety + Animal welfare で書く!

予想問題5題(模範解答&POINTSつき)

予想問題 1AIと雇用

TOPIC: Do you think artificial intelligence will have a positive effect on the job market?

POINTS: ● Efficiency ● Job losses ● New industries ● Education

📝 模範解答(Agree / Efficiency + New industries)— 約135語

I believe that artificial intelligence will have a positive effect on the job market, particularly in relation to efficiency and new industries.

Firstly, AI can greatly improve efficiency in the workplace. For example, AI tools can handle repetitive tasks such as data entry and scheduling, allowing workers to focus on more creative and meaningful work. This would lead to higher productivity across many sectors.

Secondly, the growth of AI is expected to create entirely new industries. For instance, the demand for AI engineers, data scientists, and robotics specialists has been rapidly increasing. As a result, many new career opportunities will emerge for young people.

In conclusion, I think that AI will benefit the job market, as it can not only boost workplace efficiency but also generate new employment opportunities.

予想問題 2再生可能エネルギー

TOPIC: Should governments invest more in renewable energy sources?

POINTS: ● Cost ● The environment ● Energy security ● Job creation

📝 模範解答(Agree / The environment + Energy security)— 約130語

I believe that governments should invest more in renewable energy sources. I have two reasons to support this opinion.

Firstly, increasing the use of renewable energy is essential for protecting the environment. For example, solar and wind power produce far less pollution than fossil fuels. Therefore, shifting to clean energy can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change.

Secondly, renewable energy can improve energy security. For instance, countries that rely heavily on imported oil are vulnerable to price changes and political conflicts. By developing their own renewable sources, nations can become more self-sufficient.

For these reasons, I am convinced that greater government investment in renewable energy is both necessary and beneficial.

予想問題 3SNSと若者

TOPIC: Agree or disagree: Teenagers should avoid using social media

POINTS: ● Personal relationships ● Education ● Mental health ● Safety

📝 模範解答(Agree / Mental health + Safety)— 約140語

I agree that teenagers should avoid using social media, particularly in relation to mental health and safety.

Firstly, social media can have a negative impact on teenagers’ mental health. For example, many young people compare themselves to others online, which often leads to low self-esteem and anxiety. Therefore, limiting social media use would help protect their emotional well-being.

Secondly, social media poses serious safety risks for teenagers. For instance, young people may be exposed to cyberbullying or share personal information with strangers without realizing the dangers. As a result, they could become victims of online crimes.

In conclusion, I believe that teenagers would be better off avoiding social media, as it can not only harm their mental health but also put their safety at risk.

予想問題 4キャッシュレス社会

TOPIC: Do you think that society should become completely cashless?

POINTS: ● Convenience ● Security ● Privacy ● Elderly people

💡 ヒント:反対側(Elderly people + Privacy)で書くと具体例が浮かびやすい!

予想問題 5食品ロス

TOPIC: Should more be done to reduce food waste in developed countries?

POINTS: ● The environment ● Cost ● Education ● Government regulations

📝 模範解答(Agree / The environment + Government regulations)— 約145語

I believe that more should be done to reduce food waste in developed countries. This opinion is based on the following reasons: the environment and government regulations.

Firstly, reducing food waste is crucial for environmental protection. For example, when food is thrown away, it often ends up in landfills, where it produces harmful greenhouse gases. Therefore, minimizing food waste can contribute to fighting climate change.

Secondly, governments should introduce stricter regulations to tackle this problem. For instance, some European countries have passed laws requiring supermarkets to donate unsold food to charities instead of discarding it. As a result, both waste and hunger have been reduced simultaneously.

In conclusion, I am convinced that developed countries need to take stronger action against food waste, as this would not only protect the environment but also promote a more responsible society.
