次の会話について，以下の問い(Ａ～Ｄ)に答えよ。
(配点 32)
Elementary school students are taking a Saturday morning tour of a TV station.
Mr. Wright： Welcome, boys and girls, to WXRP Channel 19. I’m Dan Wright. Today you’ll tour the station to find out how we broadcast the programs you watch on TV.
Bobby： Mr. Wright, it’s ten o’clock, and I’m usually watching the Mailman Jack Show right now. Is Mailman Jack here? Can we see him?
Mr. Wright： ( 1 ), Bobby, our studio is too small for us to do the show here. Instead, Mailman Jack makes a videotape of the show at a bigger studio in Peyton City and sends it to us. We’re playing the tape right now, and that’s how people can watch it at home. But while that tape is playing, we’re getting ready for a live local weather report. Let’s go into the studio to watch how we do it.
The students go into the studio and see a woman in front of a blue screen.
Mr. Wright： In 30 minutes, Ms. Cole here will be pointing to different parts of the blue screen behind her and talking about the weather. All you see now is that empty blue screen, but if you look at the TV screen over here, you see something else. Take a look.
Carla： Wow, it’s a weather map, and Ms. Cole’s standing in front of it!
Ms. Cole： ( 2 ), Carla. This is what people actually see on their TV at home. The map you see now is of our part of the state at eight this morning. Here we are in Jonestown. Here’s Lake Axelrod south of us and the Blue Hills to the northwest. Peyton City is northeast.
Carla： What is that letter in the circle next to Peyton City, and that line with black triangles between Jonestown and Peyton City?
Ms. Cole： The line is called a “cold front,” and the “R” in the circle stands for rain. It was raining in Peyton City this morning.
Carla： I see. Then a “C” in the circle would mean cloudy, right?
Ms. Cole： That’s a good guess, Carla, but no. I’ll get to that later.
Bobby： Is it going to rain here?
Ms. Cole： ( 3 ), because the wind is from the northeast, and it’s likely that the cold front will move past Lake Axelrod by this evening. Even if it doesn’t rain, it’s going to get cooler in Jonestown.
Bobby： What about that circle above Jonestown?
Ms. Cole： That’s a symbol for a sunny sky. When you came in this morning, the sky was clear, right? If it had been cloudy, Carla, the symbol would have been filled in and look like a big black ball. Now, that cold front is still moving toward us, and we can expect a cloudy sky ― maybe even rain ― in a few hours.

アイコンタクト(人と視線を交わすこと)について書かれた次の英文を読んで，以下の問(１～10)に答えなさい。
Most personal interaction is (1)initiated by a short period during which two people look directly at one another. Direct eye contact is a signal that each has the other’s attention, and that some further form of interaction can follow. In Western cultures, to look directly into another person’s eyes is equivalent to saying, “I’m open to you ― let the action begin.” Everyone knows how much lovers can (2)communicate by their eyes, but aggressive eye contact can also be extremely (3)informative.
In large cities, where people are crowded in together with others they neither know nor care about, many people develop (4)a deliberate strategy of avoiding eye contacts. They want to mind their own (5)business, they don’t have time to interact with everyone they pass, and they communicate this fact by refusing to look at other people’s faces. It is one of the things that make newcomers to the city feel that (6)it is a hostile and unfriendly place.
Eye contact also has an important (7)role in regulating conversational interactions. In America, a typical pattern is for the listener to (8)signal that he is paying attention by looking at the talker’s mouth or eyes. Since direct eye contact is often too intimate, the talker may let his eyes wander elsewhere. As the moment arrives for the talker to become a listener, and for his partner to begin talking, there will often be a preliminary eye signal. The talker will often look toward the listener, and the listener will signal that he is ready to talk by glancing away.
Such eye signals will vary, of course, depending on what the people are talking about and what the personal relation is between them. But whatever the pattern of eye signals that two people are using, they use them unconsciously. If you try to become aware of your own eye movements while you are talking to someone, you will find it extremely frustrating. As soon as you try to think self-consciously about your own eye movements, you do not know where you should be looking. If you want to study how the eyes communicate, therefore, (9)you should do it by observing other people, not yourself. But if you watch other people too intently, of course, you may disturb them or make them angry. So be careful!
