UNIT 1 5 Reading Passage 10 15 20 20 25 Listening There are more than 37,000 known species of spiders in the world in a wide variety of shape's and sizes! The largest spiders in the world live in the rain forests of South America and are known by the people who live there as the "bird-eating spiders." These spiders can grow up to 28 centimeters in length- about the size of a dinner plate, and, as their name suggests, have been known to eat small birds. In comparison, the smallest species of spider in the world is native to Western Samoa. These tiny spiders are less than half a millimeter long — about the size of a period on this page and live in plants that grow on mountain rocks. - Some people like to keep spiders as pets, particularly tarantulas, which are native to North America and can live for up to twenty-five years, Most people, on the other hand, do not like touching spiders, and a significant number of people are afraid of them, mainly because of their poison. However, despite their bad reputation, only thirty of the 37,000 known species of spiders are deadly to humans. Spiders actually provide benefits to humans, by catching and eating harmful insects such as flies and mosquitoes. - - The main thing that makes spiders different from other animals is that they spin web's to catch the small insects they feed on. The unique silk of a spider's web is produced by special organs found spider web is five times in the lower part of the spider's body. It is light, elastic, and strong stronger than steel. Additionally, it is completely biodegradable. This means that the web will making it perfect for uses completely decompose¹ and eventually return to nature over time such as making fishing nets. Some people have tried to raise spiders commercially in order to collect the silk these spiders produce, but no one has ever really managed to make a go of it. One reason why these businesses never stand a chance is because it takes 670,000 spiders to produce half a kilogram of silk, and all of these spiders need living insects for their food. In addition, spiders are usually solitary² animals, and need to be kept alone. Researchers at an American company working together with two U.S. universities may have found a solution to making artificial spider web. Using genetically modified silkworms,³ the company hopes that in the long run it will be able to make large quantities of very light, very strong fiber for medical as well as other uses. Additionally, because the manufacture of the artificial web is from living silkworms, the industry potentially would be non-polluting and less harmful to the environment

Ⅰ 次の英文を完成させるために,空所に入る最も適切な文を(A)~(D) より選び、その記号をマー クせよ。 ( ) He describes it is a state of ideal experience that can be brought about by tasks that have clear goals and provide immediate feedback. ack() Chess and basketball players, dancers, climbers, and assembly line workers can all experience flow while deeply engaged in their activities. Flow happens at a point of balance between boredom and frustration. (3) On the other hand, if the challenge is too high relative to the individual's skill level, frustration becomes likely. The flow state sets in when the challenge level of the activity meets the skill level of the person. In this sense, flow is related to what we call "fun." () For example, climbers will move on to ascend more demanding rock formations, and chess players will seek to play against more skillful opponents. ✓ (A) One of its defining characteristics is the loss of the sense of self and time because absorption in the task at hand is so complete. (B) Flow, as famously investigated by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, is a mental state characterized by deep absorption during challenging activities. (C) Moreover, as our skills improve in the activity, we seek to increase the challenge in order to keep experiencing flow.

〔Ⅰ〕 次の英文を読み. 設問 1~21 に答えよ。 Sandy lives in an apartment so small that when she comes home from shopping, she has to decide what to move out to make room for her purchases. She struggles day-to-day to feed and clothe herself and her four-year-old daughter on money from freelance writing jobs and helping neighbors. (2) Her ex-husband has long since disappeared down some unknown highway, probably never to be heard from again. As often as not, her car decides it needs a day off and refuses to start. That means bicycling (weather permitting), walking or asking friends for a ride. 13 The things most Americans consider essential for survival- a television. microwave, big freezer and high-priced sneakers are far down Sandy's list of "maybe someday" items. (5) Nutritious food, warm clothing, an affordable apartment, student loan payments, books for her daughter, absolutely necessary medical care and an occasional movie eat up what little money there is to go around. Sandy has knocked ) more doors than she can recall, trying to find (7) a decent job, but there is always something that doesn't quite fit-too little experience or not the right kind, or hours that make child care impossible. Sandy's story is not unusual. Many single parents and older people struggle with our economic structure, falling into the gap between being truly self-sufficient and being poor enough that the government will provide assistance. What makes Sandy unusual is her outlook. "I don't have much in the way of stuff or the American dream," she told me with a genuine smile. "Does that bother you?" I asked. "Sometimes. When I see another little girl around my daughter's age who has nice clothes and toys, or who is riding around in a fancy car or living in a fine house, then I feel bad. Everyone wants to do well for their children." she replied. "But you're not angry?" "What's to be angry (9) and I have what is really important in life," she replied. "And what is that?" I asked. (10) "As I see it, no matter how much stuff you buy, no matter how much )? We aren't starving or freezing to death. (11) money you make. you really only get to keep three things in life." she said. "What do you mean by 'keep?" (12) "I mean that nobody can take these things away from you." "And what are these three things?" I asked. "One, your experiences: two, your true friends; and three, what you grow inside yourself." she told me without hesitation. (13) For Sandy, "experiences" don't come on a grand scale. They are so-called ordinary moments with her daughter, walks in the woods, napping under a shady tree, listening to music, taking a warm bath or baking bread. Her definition of friends is more expansive. "True friends are the ones (15) who never leave your heart, even if they leave your life for a while. Even after years apart. you pick up with them right where you left off, and even if they die, they're never dead in your heart," she explained. 16 ) to each of us. (17 As for what we grow inside, Sandy said, "That's ( isn't it? I don't grow anger or sorrow. I could if I wanted to, but I'd rather not." "So what do you grow?" I asked. Sandy looked warmly at her daughter and then back to me. She pointed toward her own eyes, which were shining with tenderness. gratitude and a sparkling joy. "I grow this."
