次の会話の(1)(2)の空欄に入るものとして最も適切なものを,1.~5.の中から選びなさい。

Mike: ( 1 )
Jane: Once the answer was simple: information and skills. Today the answer is quite complex: whatever kids need to learn in order to have a decent future.
Mike: Some educators believe the high school curriculum should include instruction of ethics, self-love, love of others, and a positive philosophy of life. This type of education program focuses on the students’ character development.
Jane: How can schools do all that? Public schools in the U.S. are having enough trouble teaching subject matter and basic skill to their diverse population. It seems to me that ( 2 ).
Mike: On the contrary, you cannot teach subject matter to students who have no values and no appreciation of their own character.

( 1 )
1. What do high schools fail to teach?
2. What did you plan to study at high school?
3. What are high schools supposed to teach?
4. What did you study at high school?
5. What do you plan to study at high school?

( 2 )
1. students need to learn ethical issues more
2. students need an additional educational assignment
3. students need to appreciate their own value
4. students need a program for character development
5. students do not need an additional program for character development

 次の英文を読んで,後の問いに答えよ。
 Many foreign students are surprised by what they find in the American classroom. Some classes are conducted in the familiar lecture style, with a professor talking for an hour or so while students take notes, but many other classes are run in the seminar style, or a mixture of both.
 In a seminar, dialogue is the key to the success of the class. Every student is expected to ask critical questions and to express original opinions on the topic. The professor may guide the discussion, but he might not take a position on which view is correct. In a seminar, class participation often affects a student's grade, though papers and exams are far more important factors in computing the grade.
 [ a ]

問 次の(1)~(3)の英文を並べかえ,1つのパラグラフにして空欄[ a ]に補う場合,どのような順番にするのが最も適切か。ア~エの中から1つ選べ。
  (1) A professor using this method debates with the students rather than stating facts, asking difficult, even humiliating, questions designed to challenge the students' way of thinking.
  (2) Foreign students are often shocked by the informality and vigor of classroom dialogues, but they usually learn to "put in their two cents" soon enough.
  (3) A more extreme version of class participation is seen in the Socratic method, employed in law classes and some other settings.
