詳しくは英検の問題形式変更についてまとめた記事をご確認ください。

これまでの英検準1級ライティングの問題傾向

まずは英検準1級ライティングの問題形式についておさらいしましょう。
これまで英検準1級ライティングでは、「意見論述」問題が出題されてきました。

社会的なトピックを扱う

英検準1級では2級に引きつづき、ビジネス・政治・環境問題といった社会的なトピックを扱います。

たとえば2023年度の英検準1級ライティングでは、次のようなトピックが出題されました。

• 第1回検定：オンラインサービスの導入
• 第2回検定：リサイクルしやすい製品づくり
• 第3回検定：若者の投票率アップに向けた取り組み

中高生であれば、授業やニュースなどで触れたことのある題材も多いはずです。
2級のトピックと比べると抽象度が増しているため、問われている内容そのものは比較的理解しやすいでしょう。

トピックについての自分の考えを主張する

英検準1級の意見論述問題では、社会的なトピックに対して「これからどうすべきか」という自分の考えを問われます。
漠然とした問いなので、日本語でも答えるのが難しいかもしれません。

ただし準1級では問題文に観点が4つ提示されていて、そのうちの2つを取り入れるよう指定されています。

たとえば2023年度第1回の「企業はオンラインサービスをもっと導入すべきだと思いますか？」という問いに対しては、Convenience（利便性）、Cost（費用）、Jobs（雇用）、The environment（環境）という4つの観点が提示されました。

たとえば利便性と費用の2つを使って、賛成の意見を表明する英作文を書く場合、

• 利便性：お客様が店舗に足を運ばずにサービスを利用できて便利なため
• 費用　：店舗の運営コストを抑えられるため、サービスの価格を下げたり、従業員の給与に還元できたりする

といった主張が可能です。

抽象的なトピックについて具体的な主義主張を考えるのはたいへんだからこそ、自分が回答を作成しやすいものを2つ選ぶといいでしょう。

【TOPIC】
Is marriage becoming less important today than it was in the past?

【POINTS】
●Women
●Pressure
●Children
●Health

練習問題　No.1　模範解答①（YES）

【TOPICの和訳】
今日、結婚は以前ほど重要ではなくなってきていますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Woman
●Pressure

【模範解答】
　　　I think that marriage is becoming less important today than it was in the past. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, more women are working now compared to the past. A large percentage of women around the world have careers and do not want to be tied down by marriage. For example, a woman who gets married and has children will not be able to maintain a career.

　　　Second of all, the pressure to get married is becoming increasingly low. People in the past were pressured to marry and have children because families needed more people for manual labor, but that is not the case anymore. For instance, people in the past married and had kids because they needed more people working in the farm.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think that marriage is not as important as it was in the past.

今日、結婚は以前ほど重要ではなくなってきていますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Children
●Health

【模範解答】
　　　I think that marriage is not becoming less important today than it was in the past. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, marriage is a crucial step in the process of having children. Even today, the natural first step for a couple wanting kids is to become husband and wife. For example, an ideal lifestyle for many people today is to work a stable job, and eventually marry and have kids.

　　　Second of all, getting married has a positive effect on mental health. Having a lifetime partner undeniably benefits people’s mental well-being. For instance, a married couple always has someone to talk to when they are troubled, but single people may not have anyone they could rely on.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think that marriage is as important as it was in the past.

Do you think that rich countries should do more to help poor countries develop?

【POINTS】
●Inequality
●Economic Growth
●Domestic Issues
●Enough

練習問題　No.2　模範解答①（YES）

【TOPICの和訳】
豊かな国はもっと貧しい国の発展を支援する対策を取るべきだと思いますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Inequality
●Economic Growth

【模範解答】
　　　I think that rich countries should do more to help poor countries develop. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, rich countries have a duty to fix the inequality in the world. People living in poor countries usually suffer from starvation and diseases from lack of food and clean water. For example, rich countries could utilize their resources to help such people, so people around the world can live a happy and healthy life.

　　　Second of all, rich countries themselves can gain benefits like economic growth by helping poor countries. If companies from rich countries are sent to poor countries, that contributes to the growth of the company. For instance, the growth of companies can benefit rich countries by leading to less unemployment.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think that rich countries should put more effort to help the development of poor countries.

【TOPICの和訳】
豊かな国はもっと貧しい国の発展を支援する対策を取るべきだと思いますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Domestic Issues
●Enough

【模範解答】
　　　I think that rich countries should not do more to help poor countries develop. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, rich countries have their own domestic issues that are more important. Rich countries should take care of domestic problems before they use their resources to help others. For example, Japan should use its money to fix issues like population decline and building earthquake resistant infrastructure before helping other countries.

　　　Second of all, rich countries are already putting enough resources into helping poor countries develop. Rich countries are already sending professionals and companies to poor countries to aid their economic growth. For instance, Japan is exporting many of its technologies, like bullet trains, to help development in countries in South East Asia.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think that rich countries should not put more effort to help development in poor countries.

Do you think that TV commercials have any influence over consumers’ decisions?

【POINTS】
●Memorable
●Bargains

●Irrelevant

練習問題　No.3　模範解答①（YES）

【TOPICの和訳】
テレビで上映されるCMは消費者に影響を及ぼしていると思いますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Memorable
●Bargains

【模範解答】
　　　I think that TV commercials have an influence over consumers’ decisions. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, TV commercials often have catchy tunes or funny scenes that make it memorable. Memorable commercials stay in the mind of consumers when they are out shopping. For example, the famous snack, Pocky, has a catchy tune in their commercial which leads to more people buying them.

　　　Second of all, TV commercials often make consumers interested with special bargains. Bargains, especially when they are only for a limited time, catches the attention of consumers. For instance, buy one get one free deals are common in TV commercials, and they influence consumers’ decisions to buy the product.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think consumers’ decisions are affected by TV commercials.

【TOPICの和訳】
テレビで上映されるCMは消費者に影響を及ぼしていると思いますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Attention
●Irrelevant

【模範解答】
　　　I think that TV commercials do not have an influence over consumers’ decisions. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, most people do not pay attention to TV commercials. People watch TV for the TV programs, and most people are not focused on the screen during commercials. For example, people watching TV together tend to talk to each other during commercial break.

　　　Second of all, most TV commercials tend to be irrelevant to everyday consumers. There are many kinds of products being advertised in commercials, and most of them are for a specific group of people. For instance, an everyday consumer watching a car commercial will most likely not decide to purchase a car.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think consumers’ decisions are not affected by TV commercials.

【TOPIC】
Do you think that people should be restricted from using cars in city centers?

【POINTS】
●Safety
●Space
●Inconvenient
●Traffic

練習問題　No.4　模範解答①（YES）

【TOPICの和訳】
人々が都心部で車を利用するのを制限すべきだと思いますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Safety
●Space

【模範解答】
　　　I think that people should be restricted from using cars in city centers. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, having no cars will lead to better safety for pedestrians. City centers have tons of pedestrians, and this increases the chance for cars to accidentally cause them injuries. For example, there are a lot of instances where car drivers hit pedestrians or bicyclists by accidents in crowded city centers.

　　　Second of all, getting rid of cars will leave more space for pedestrians. City centers often have so many people that they cannot fit within the sidewalk. For instance, getting rid of cars will allow pedestrians to walk on the road as well, creating more space for people to comfortably walk without congestion.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, cars should be restricted from city centers.

練習問題　No.4　模範解答②（NO）

【TOPICの和訳】
今日、結婚は以前ほど重要ではなくなってきていますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Inconvenient
●Traffic

【模範解答】
　　　I think that people should not be restricted from using cars in city centers. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, it will disrupt many commuters that use cars to get to work. Restricting cars in city centers will make it inconvenient for the people that drive to work. For example, they will have to park their cars outside city centers and walk instead of driving straight to their workplace.

　　　Second of all, closing off cars into city centers will lead to traffic in surrounding roads. Restricting cars into city centers will leave less roads for cars to travel which will cause congestion. For instance, all the people that usually drive on city center roads will have to take other roads, causing traffic.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think cars should not be restricted from city centers.

●School
●Robots

●Cost

練習問題　No.5　模範解答①（YES）

【TOPICの和訳】
日本では医師不足への対策が十分になされていると思いますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●School
●Robots

【模範解答】
　　　I think that there is enough being done to deal with the shortage of doctors in Japan. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, the medical program in several schools in Japan are increasing capacity. To prevent shortage of doctors, many universities around the country are building new facilities and hiring more professors. For example, increasing capacity in such programs will allow more students to study medicine and become doctors.

　　　Second of all, development of doctor robots are in progress to combat the shortage of human doctors. Robots in the medical field are being improved, and in the future, they will be able to check the health of patients instead of humans. For instance, having such robots in hospitals will reduce the need for human doctors.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, there is enough being done to combat the shortage of doctors in Japan.

【選んだPOINT】
●Number
●School

【模範解答】
　　　I think there is not enough being done to deal with the shortage of doctors in Japan. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, the number of people needing medical care is growing in Japan. The number of patients is increasing but the number of doctors is not keeping up fast enough. For example, the number of doctors will need to increase as fast as the number of people requiring medical care to solve the doctor shortage problem.

　　　Second of all, schools in Japan are not doing enough to get students interested in the field of health. There needs to be more effort in schools to inspire students to become doctors. For instance, schools could teach students the positive aspects of being a doctor, then more children may consider to become one.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, there is not enough being done to combat the shortage of doctors in Japan.

Do you think that people’s lives are influenced by music?

●Identity
●Self-expression

練習問題　No.6　模範解答①（YES）

【TOPICの和訳】
人々の生活は音楽に影響を受けると思いますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Identity
●Self-expression

【模範解答】
　　　I think that people’s lives are influenced by music. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, music helps people maintain a sense of group identity. Cultures around the world have music unique to their location, and it helps people come together as one. For example, traditional Japanese music reminds Japanese people that they are included in the Japanese community.

　　　Second of all, music has the ability to alter people’s moods. The music that people listen to has the power to affect their emotions, and therefore influences the actions that they take. For instance, upbeat songs can make people happy and energetic, while slow songs can make people relaxed and calm.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think music influences people’s lives.

練習問題　No.6　模範解答②（NO）

【TOPICの和訳】
人々の生活は音楽に影響を受けると思いますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Other media
●Preference

【模範解答】
　　　I think that people’s lives are not influenced by music. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, music is not as influential as other forms of media like video. While music involves only hearing, video involves hearing as well as seeing. For example, watching a movie where you can see characters taking certain actions is more influential to people than simply listening to music.

　　　Second of all, there are people that don’t listen to music. Music may be popular among a majority of the population, but it is wrong to say people’s lives are influenced by music because some people don’t like music. For instance, a person who doesn’t listen to music will not be influenced at all.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think music does not influence people’s lives.

Do you think that the drinking age should be lowered in Japan?

【POINTS】
●Monitoring
●Responsibility
●Health
●Danger

練習問題　No.7　模範解答①（YES）

【TOPICの和訳】
日本では、飲酒年齢を引き下げるべきだと思いますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Monitoring
●Responsibility

【模範解答】
　　　I think that the drinking age should be lowered in Japan. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, lowering the drinking age allows adults to monitor that young people are drinking responsibly. Right now, it is a fact that many young people drink illegally, and yet the adults ignores such behavior. For example, adults should allow and monitor when young people drink, instead of ignoring them and pretending that they don’t know it is happening.

　　　Second of all, younger people are responsible enough to drink. It is inconsistent that people in Japan are considered adults at age eighteen, but they cannot drink. For instance, if eighteen year olds are trusted to vote in elections and join the military, they should also be trusted with drinking responsibly.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think that the drinking age should be lowered in Japan.

日本では、飲酒年齢を引き下げるべきだと思いますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Health
●Danger

【模範解答】
　　　I think that the drinking age should not be lowered in Japan. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, lowering the drinking age will have negative effects on young people’s health. The bodies of young people are still developing, and therefore they are more easily affected by alcohol. For example, allowing young people to drink may lead to them getting hurt from alcohol poisoning or leading to diseases in the future.

　　　Second of all, allowing young people to drink will endanger the lives of everyone in society. Alcohol prevents the brain from making good decisions, and it often leads to other people getting hurt as well. For instance, young people who drink could hurt others through drunk driving or becoming violent.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think that the drinking age should not be lowered in Japan.

【選んだPOINT】
●Money
●Technology

【模範解答】
　　　I think that young people today have more chances to achieve their ambitions than young people did in the past. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, people today tend to be wealthier than people in the past. There were times in the past when the majority of the population barely had enough money to buy food. For example, young people today could use the advantages of their wealth to start a business.

　　　Second of all, young people today have access to technology that didn’t exist in the past. These days, young people have technology like the Internet and fast airplanes. For instance, a young person having the ambition to go abroad can easily do so with an airplane and do research about the destination on the Internet.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think that young people today can achieve their ambitions easier than young people in the past.

●Population
●Tax

【模範解答】
　　　I think that young people today do not have more chances to achieve their ambitions than young people did in the past. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, there are more people than in the past. A larger population means more jobs are occupied and there is more competition. For example, if a young person wants to become the Prime Minister, it is harder now because there are a lot more people that have the same dream.

　　　Second of all, the tax rate has increased compared to the past. People today must pay a larger portion of their savings to the government and are left with little money. For instance, a young person having the ambition of going abroad will not be able to do so because they have little money.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, I think that young people today cannot achieve their ambitions easier than young people in the past.

【TOPICの和訳】
日本で自転車に乗るには免許を必要とした方が良いと思いますか？

【選んだPOINT】
●Accidents
●Safety

【模範解答】
　　　I think that a license should be required to ride a bicycle in Japan. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, it will lessen the number of accidents. Requiring a license ensures that all bicyclists know the rules of the road. For example, bicycle riders will know to ride on the correct side of the street, reducing the number of accidents with pedestrians and cars.

　　　Second of all, it will make sure that bicyclists have the skills to ride a bicycle safely. Some bicyclists ride their bicycles in public even though they ride recklessly. For instance, license tests will make sure that only safe bicyclists are on the road.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, all bicyclists should be required to have a license.

　　　I think that a license should not be required to ride a bicycle in Japan. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, it will take a lot of time and money. It will be difficult to suddenly require the millions of bicyclists in Japan to obtain a license. For example, the millions of bicyclists would have to take bicycling classes and tests to get their license, which would require lots of money and time.

　　　Second of all, bicycles are the main way of transportation for many people. Bicycles are a popular way to get around town for people without access to trains and buses. For instance, requiring a license can prevent some children from getting to school.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, bicyclists should not be required to have a license.

　　　I think that the facilities at train and bus stations in Japan should be improved for disabled people. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, the number of disabled people is growing in Japan. In the future, there will be more people that need special care getting around such facilities. For example, old people may have a hard time climbing stairs in train stations, so they need special equipment.

　　　Second of all, train and bus stations are the main types of transportation in Japan. It is often necessary to take a train or bus daily. For instance, people use trains and buses to go to many different places such as work, school, or the market.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, the facilities at train and bus stations should try to help disabled people more.

　　　I think that the facilities at train and bus stations in Japan should not be improved for disabled people. There are two reasons to support my opinion.

　　　First of all, the construction will cost too much. The money could be better spent on improving facilities for everyone instead of just for disabled people. For example, the money could be spent on cleaner facilities everyone can enjoy.

　　　Second of all, the construction will take too much time. If all train and bus facilities were to be improved, that would take a long time. For instance, there are hundreds of train and bus station in Tokyo alone, and thousands more in Japan.

　　　According to the reasons stated above, the facilities at train and bus stations should not be changed.

英検準1級ライティングの意見論述問題を解くコツ

英検準1級の意見論述問題で高得点を目指すためのポイントは、次の2つです。

• 英語エッセイの構成ルールに沿って4段落構成で作成
• 同じ言い回しを使うのは避ける

それぞれ紹介します。

英語エッセイの構成ルールに沿って4段落構成で作成

英文エッセイは基本的に、イントロダクション（導入）・ボディ（本論）・コンクルージョン（結論）から構成されます。

英検準1級ライティングの意見論述は、問題文で自分の意見とその理由2つを書くよう指定されている問題です。
英文エッセイでは、パラグラフ（段落）1つあたり1つの話題を取り扱うのが基本ルールのため、解答の構成は次のようになります。

同じ言い回しを使うのは避ける

ライティングの採点は、「内容」「構成」「語彙」「文法」の4つの観点で採点される仕組みです。
なかでも英検準1級の語彙は、多様な表現を使っているかを重視されます。

しかし、「1回使った単語は2回以上使ってはいけない」というルールで作文しても、伝わりにくい文章になってしまうでしょう。
緩急をつけつつ、無理のない範囲で英単語の語彙の広さを示すことが大切です。

たとえば、主語や目的語などの名詞は、同じものを使っても構いません。
一方で、時間や場所などの表現方法や、動詞に使われている熟語などは同じ意味の別の表現に言い換えるのが理想です。

英検準1級のライティング対策について詳しくは以下の記事で紹介していますので、ぜひご覧ください。

2024年度から英検準1級ライティングには「要約問題」が追加に！ 

英検は2024年度に問題形式が大幅にリニューアルされました。

準1級のライティングではこれまでの意見論述問題にくわえて、新たに要約問題が出題されます。
また、ライティングの問題数が増えるぶん、リーディングの問題数が41問→31問と大幅に減少しました。

要約問題の採点は、意見論述問題と同じく、内容・構成・語彙・文法の4つの観点で行われます。
観点ごとに5段階（0〜4点）で評価が下され、CSEスコアへと変換される仕組みです。

要約問題のサンプル問題

英検協会が公表しているサンプル問題を、日本語訳と併せて紹介します。

Instructions: Read the article below and summarize it in your own words as far as possible in English.

Suggested length: 60-70 words

Write your summary in the space provided on your answer sheet. Any writing outside the space will not be graded.

解答例

The British government implemented a policy that would help national museums to provide free admission to the public. Supporters believed this would encourage people from various backgrounds to visit museums. However, while visitors increased, some critics of the policy pointed out the increase was largely due to repeated visits from the same people. Moreover, some independent museums with admission fees stated the policy led to a drop in their revenues.

＜日本語訳＞

イギリス政府は、国立博物館の入場料を無料にするための政策を実施した。支持者らは、この政策によってさまざまな背景を持つ人々が博物館を訪れるようになるだろうと信じていた。この政策に批判的な人々のなかには、訪問者は増加したものの、増加の主な原因は同じ人々が繰り返し訪問したことだと指摘した。さらに、入場料を徴収している一部の独立系美術館は、この政策が収入の減少につながったと述べた。

英検準1級ライティング対策を進めるうえでの注意点

ライティングは正解が1つではないからこそ、正確に自己採点するのは不可能といってもいいでしょう。

スペルミスのように明確な間違いであれば自分でも判断できますが、文法が正しいか、適切な英単語を使えているかを把握するのは困難です。

そのため、自分より優れた英語力を持つ人に採点してもらう必要があります。

採点を依頼することで、自分の実力を正しく把握できることはもちろん、より高いスコアを獲得するにはどうしたらよかったのかという解き方も含めて教えてもらえるでしょう。
