■日本の観光地・祭りを英語で言えますか？　 　夏休みも近づき，観光地には外国からの旅行客も増える季節です。 Lesson 5では修学旅行先での道案内を紹介していますが，各地の特徴や見所などを英語で説明するのはなかなか難しいものです。そんなとき外国人観光客向けの次のサイトが参考になるでしょう。 　　Japan National Tourist Organization Website（英語版） 　このサイトの中に，日本の有名な夏祭りが３つ紹介されています。A～Cはそれぞれどの祭りの説明だと思いますか。 Ａ．Giant illuminated presentations of historical and mythological characters parade through the streets accompanied by throngs of Hane dancers. The glowing tableaux are made of wood and wire frames covered in translucent Japanese paper. Some weigh as much as four tons - monsters that may take three months to make!… Ｂ．Tall bamboo poles adorned with rows of paper lanterns are paraded through the streets, creating rows of swaying, glowing over-sized rice stalks. The festival is supposed to guarantee bountiful harvests, and definitely guarantees happy throngs of visitors from all over the world!... Ｃ．A kaleidoscopic carnival of paper streamers and origami. Originally a Chinese festival marking the annual meeting of lover stars Vega and Altair in the Milky Way, XXXXX is celebrated in Japan by writing down a wish and tying it to a spray of bamboo. Sendai hosts the biggest XXXXX party of all, with a huge fireworks display adding to a brilliantly colorful occasion.（伏せ字は祭りの名前です）
