日本人が英語を学習するにあたって、和訳は理解度を確認する有効な手段です。ただ、和訳には時間がかかり日本語語の思考回路を起動させてしまうという大きな欠点があります。全文訳にこだわるような英語教育に長いこと馴染んでいると和訳せずには理解できないような状態になり伸び悩みます。以下にお示しするのは、和訳せずに理解度を確認できる長文整序問題です。
2020センター試験追試第6問改題
□Milk is considered an important food around the world. Some advertisements even call it “the perfect food.” This has some truth as milk ①(protein / contains / muscles / to build), calcium for strengthening bones, and vitamins that are essential for good health. The importance of milk in our diets has a long history. In fact, since people started to breed farm animals, they have consumed animal milk.
□The oldest ②(milk consumption / evidence / was found / of ) at sites more than 10,000 years old. Surprisingly, it was not cow’s milk but sheep’s milk. People raised sheep for their meat, wool, and milk long before they began to raise cows. They turned this milk into the first types of cheese. Sheep’s milk has over 50% more fat than cow’s milk along with about twice the amount of protein. As fat content plays an important part in making cheese, sheep’s milk is often used to produce a number of cheeses. Goats, another animal raised before cows, also provide milk. Goat’s milk has a similar level of fat to cow’s milk, but less sugar. More recent examples of animal milk include deer’s milk and horse’s milk. Deer’s milk has higher levels of protein and fat than cow’s milk. Horse’s milk has less protein than cow’s milk, but six times as much vitamin C.
□At the present time, most milk ③(from / in stores / sold / comes) cows. The worldwide dairy industry depends on cows, which consistently ④(far / milk / produce / more) than other animals. The milk is sold to be drunk or turned into dairy products such as cheese, butter, yogurt, or ice cream. Regardless of how it is used, nowadays, most raw milk ⑤(get rid of / is / to / heated) harmful bacteria. Modern methods of treating milk and careful inspection of milk products have helped to ensure that the milk we consume today is safe. It has become one of the most highly ⑥(many countries / foods / regulated / in).
□Not all people, however, can digest milk. Although infants are able to take in milk easily, ⑦(declines / ability / in / this) a certain percentage of adults. Some of them can still eat products made from milk, like cheese or ice cream, while others are ⑧(to digest / unable / in / milk products ) any form. They know that having a bowl of delicious ice cream is only going to cause them torment. For these people, milk is certainly not the perfect food.
□Recently, different kinds of milk made from plants have appeared in supermarkets. These are especially ⑨(who cannot / popular / digest / with people) animal milk as well as with people seeking better health. A variety of plants are used, and each plant milk differs in its original state. The most popular type of plant milk is made from soybeans. Soy milk is similar in the amount of protein to cow’s milk but lacks calcium. Rice milk has a lower sugar content and less protein than cow’s milk. Coconut milk, which is common in Southeast Asia, has about half the calories of cow’s milk and less protein. In short, each of these plant milks ⑩(different amounts / nutrition / offers / of) to consumers.
□Currently, ⑪(milk / the decision / making / to drink) requires that we examine our options and choose the ones that are best for us. Each offers different benefits, allowing us to select the levels of protein or fat we want in order to satisfy our nutritional needs. No matter what these requirements are, milk in all its forms will continue to find a place in people’s diets.
※解答①(contains protein to build muscles)②(evidence of milk consumption was found) ③(sold in stores comes from) ④(produce far more milk) ⑤(is heated to get rid of) ⑥(regulated foods in many countries)⑦(this ability declines in)⑧(unable to digest milk products in)⑨(popular with people who cannot digest) ⑩(offers different amounts of nutrition) ⑪(making the decision to drink milk)
