第3問
B 次の会話は、慈善活動の企画に関して大学生たちが行った
やりとりの一部である。[ 30 ]~[ 32 ]に入れるのに最も適当なものを、それぞれ
下の{1}~{4}のうちから一つずつ選べ。
Akira: Hey, guys. Thanks for dropping in. I've asked you all to meet here
today to come up with ideas about how to raise money for our annual charity
event. We'll have about a month this summer to earn as much as we can. Any
thoughts?
Teresa: How about doing odd jobs around the neighborhood?
Akira: What's that? I've never heard of it.
Jenna: Oh, I guess it's not common here in Japan. It can be anything, you
know, doing stuff around the house like cutting the grass, washing the
windows, or cleaning out the garage. When I was a high school student back
in the US, I made 300 dollars one summer by doing yard work around the
neighborhood. And sometimes people will ask you to run around town for them
to pick up the dry cleaning or do the grocery shopping. It's pretty typical
way for young people to earn some extra money.
Akira: So, Jenna, you're saying that [ 30 ]?
{1} cleaning up the yard is quite valuable work
{2} dividing housework among the family is best
{3} doing random jobs is a way to make money
{4} gardening will sure be profitable in the US
Jenna: Yeah, I think that it could work in Japan, too.
Rudy: Here, many students do part-time jobs for local businesses. They
might work at a restaurant or convenience store. Odd jobs are different.
You're more like a kind of helper. It's casual style of working. You get
paid directly by the people you help, not a company. And you can decide
which jobs you want to do.
Maya: But isn't it dangerous? Usually, people are unwilling to enter
a house of someone they don't know. And what happens if you don't get paid?
How can you get the money you earned?
Rudy: Not all jobs are inside the house. You can choose the kind of work
that you're comfortable with. In my experience, I never got cheated.
Basically, we work for people our own community, so we sort of know them.
Often, they are older people who have lived in the neighborhood a long
time. And I always got paid in cash, so I was excited to have money to
spend.
Teresa: There are a lot of seniors in our community. I'm sure they'd be
happy to have someone do the heavy lifting, or even just to see a friendly
face around. I really doubt that they would take advantage of us. In
general, don't you think most people are honest and kind?
Akira: It sounds like we shouldn't be too worried because [ 31 ].
{1} elderly people would feel uneasy about our work
{2} it's embarrassing to ask our neighbors for work
{3} there's little risk in working within our community
{4} we can be safe if we work for a company in town
