Mariko: Is there anything else to do apart from visiting the colleges?
Passenger: Oh, yes. Apart from enjoying the architecture, there's the biggest bookshop in the world and the city boasts some excellent museums. You're also not very far from Stratford. Do you know who was born there?

③ 解法・対策
 会話の受け答えの問題は、選択肢に紛らわしいものがあるわけでもないので、かなり平易なものになっています。その一方、和文英訳は、文法事項やイディオム、構文などのテーマが含まれており、それらポイントを和文から読み取れるかどうかという点が非常に重要です。また、和文が難しい場合は、和文を忠実に表現することにこだわらず、和文和訳して表現を簡素にする工夫を行います。詳細は以下の項目を参照ください:
