As preparation, you are reading an article in the school newspaper written by Yuzu, who took part in it last year. ┌────────────────────────────────────┐ ｜　　　　　　[Virtual Field Trip to a South Sea Island]　　　　　　　　　｜ ｜　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　｜ ｜This year, for our English Day, we participated in a virtual science　　｜ ｜tour. The winter weather had been terrible, so we were excited to see 　｜ ｜the tropical scenery of the volcanic island projected on the screen.　　｜ ｜　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　｜ ｜First, we "took a road trip" to learn about the geography of the island,｜ ｜using navigation software to view the route. We got into the car," which｜ ｜our teacher, Mr Leach, sometimes stopped so we could look out of the　　｜ ｜window and get a better sense of the rainforest. Afterwards, we asked 　｜ ｜Mr Leach about what we'd seen.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　｜ ｜　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　｜ ｜Later, we "dived into the ocean" and learnt about the diversity of　　　｜ ｜marine creatures. We observed a coral reef via a live camera. Mr Leach　｜ ｜asked us if we could count the number of creatures, but there were too　｜ ｜many! Then he showed us an image of the ocean 10 years ago. The reef　　｜ ｜we'd seen on camera was dynamic, but in the photo it was even more full ｜ ｜of life. It looked so different after only 10 years! Mr Leach told us 　｜ ｜human activity was affecting the ocean and it could be totally ruined if｜ ｜we didn't act now.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　｜ ｜　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　｜ ｜In the evening, we studied astronomy under a "perfect starry sky." We 　｜ ｜put up tents in the gymnasium and created a temporary planetarium on the｜ ｜ceiling using a projector. We were fascinated by the sky full of　　　　｜ ｜constellations, shooting stars, and the Milky Way. Someone pointed out　｜ ｜one of the brightest lights and asked Mr Leach if it was Venus, a planet｜ ｜close to Earth. He nodded and explained that humans have created so much｜ ｜artificial light that hardly anything is visible in our city's night　　｜ ｜sky.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　｜ ｜　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　｜ ｜On my way home after school, the weather had improved and the sky was 　｜ ｜now cloudless. I looked up at the moonless sky and realised what Mr 　　｜ ｜Leach had told us was true.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 ｜ └────────────────────────────────────┘ 問１　Yuzu's article also included student comments ({1}～{4}) describing the events in the virtual tour. Put the comments in the order in which the events happened. [ 18 ]→[ 19 ]→[ 20 ]→[ 21 ] {1} I was wondering how dangerous the island was. I saw beautiful birds and a huge snake in the jungle. {2} It was really shocking that there had been many more creatures before. We should protect our beautiful oceans! {3} Setting up a camping site in the gymnasium was kind of weird, but great fun! Better than outside, because we weren't bitten by bugs! {4} We were lost for words during the space show and realised we often don't notice things even though they're there. 問２　From the tour, Yuzu did [not] learn about the [ 22 ] of the south sea island. {1} marine ecosystem {2} night-time sky {3} seasonal weather {4} trees and plants 問３　On the way home, Yuzu looked up and most likely saw [ 23 ] in the night sky. {1} a shooting star {2} just a few stars {3} the full moon {4} the Milky Way ※一部の図や記号は省略または類似のものに変更、マーク部分の□や下線部は[ ]、 マル１は{1}で表記しています。
