Q2の解答・解説を見る
- (B) place → “place a reservation” で「予約を入れる」という意味になるが、前もって連絡を義務付ける文脈に合わない
- (C) confirm → 予約を確認するなら通常 “confirm” だが、24〜48時間前に連絡しなければならないのはキャンセル通知の場面
- (D) arrange → 手配する。この文脈では不自然
S[Customers (who wish to cancel a reservation)] V[must contact] O[the hotel] (at least 48 hours in advance).

(A) completes (B) has completed (C) will complete (D) will have completed
Q3の解答・解説を見る
- (A) completes → 現在形。未来の出来事に不適切
- (B) has completed → 現在完了形。過去〜現在までの完了を表し、未来の時点に使えない

Q5. The company plans to ------- its main office from New York to San Francisco to be closer to its technology partners.
(A) establish (B) expand (C) relocate (D) rebuild
Q5の解答・解説を見る
- (A) establish → 設立する。既存のオフィスの移転には不適切
- (B) expand → 拡張する。from〜toという移動先の表現と矛盾する
- (D) rebuild → 建て直す。オフィスを移動させるのではなく建物を再建する意味
S[The company] V[plans] (to relocate its main office (from New York) (to San Francisco)) (to be closer to its technology partners).

Q7の解答・解説を見る
- (A) consist → “consist of”(〜から成る)。”consist to” という形は存在しない
- (B) relate → “relate to”(〜に関連する)。文法的には可能だが、規制が「関連する」では弱い。「適用される」が文意に合う
- (C) belong → “belong to”(〜に属する)。規制が事業者に「属する」は文脈に合わない
S[The new regulations] V[will apply] (to all businesses (with more than 50 employees)), (regardless of industry).

(A) review (B) submit (C) complete (D) distribute
Q11の解答・解説を見る
- (A) review → 確認・見直す。review した後でさらに complete して return するのが自然な流れで、ここでは complete が答え
- (B) submit → 提出する。return(返却)と意味が重複し不自然
- (D) distribute → 配布する。フォームを受け取った側が配布することはない

(A) reputation (B) capacity (C) responsibility (D) productivity
Q13の解答・解説を見る
- (B) capacity → 収容能力・生産能力。”gain a capacity for” はコロケーションとして成立しない

(A) at (B) in (C) for (D) through
Q16の解答・解説を見る
- (A) at → “at collaboration” は意味をなさない
- (C) for → “for collaboration with” は文法的に不自然
- (D) through → “through collaboration” も使われることはあるが、”through collaboration with” は “in collaboration with” の定型表現と比べて不自然

Q17. The company is planning to ------- a new line of health-focused beverages in the coming spring season.
(A) launch (B) operate (C) establish (D) present
Q17の解答・解説を見る
- (B) operate → 運営する。製品ラインの運営という使い方は不自然
- (C) establish → 設立する。会社や組織には使うが、製品ラインには一般的でない

(A) another (B) the other (C) others (D) the others
Q20の解答・解説を見る
- (A) another → 「別の(不特定の)もう1つ」を指す。3つ以上の中から1つを指す場合に使う。2つしかない場合は the other が正しい
- (C) others → 「他のいくつか」を指す複数形。ここでは1つの報告書を指している
- (D) the others → 「残りすべて」を指す複数形。報告書は2つしかなく不適切
