　　Japan’s global influence can be seen in the popularity of its culture. Manga and anime are

obviously very popular. But (　a　).

　　In particular, Japanese design ideas relating to simplicity are very popular outside of Japan.

Traditional arts like bonsai and ikebana create clean, simple shapes from nature. Therefore,

ikebana artists remove flower parts that hide these simple shapes. ⑴This reveals the clean,

simple beauty of flowers. In turn, similar ideas have influenced the appearance of ⑵many objects

in Japanese life. For example, the idea of wabi, or simple beauty, appears in Japanese food, home

design, and cooking tools.

　　Outside of Japan, wabi and similar ideas of simplicity are called “*minimalism.” This was an

important artistic movement in Western countries starting in the late 1960s. Many Western artists

from this period were strongly influenced by Japanese design and Zen Buddhism. ATherefore,

they created paintings and sculptures based on simple shapes and lines. Similarly, architects and

home designers were influenced by minimalism and Japanese style. Since then, many Japanese

design ideas, like wabi-sabi, mono no aware, and iki, became popular among artists and creative

professionals around the world.

　　Japanese ideas like wabi continue to have a strong influence today. For example, (　b　).

They have also copied Japanese packaging and gift-wrapping in their product boxes. These

design.

　　次の英文を読んで，あとの問いに答えなさい。　　People in many countries have begun using Japanese-style emoji. Recently, a popular U.S.

cellphone company started offering emoji. After that, it became more common for American

adults to use these cartoon symbols in text messages and e-mails. Since this phone is popular in

other countries, lots of people outside Japan are using emoji, too.

　　Before ⑴this, many Americans used a smaller set of symbols called “⑵emoticons.” These

included cartoon hearts, smiling faces, and other simple images. The same English word, “emoticon,”

is used for symbols like :-) and ;-). These are created from letters and symbols on keyboards. In

the U.S., :-) and ;-) can mean “I’m happy,” “I’m telling a joke,” or lots of other things. The meaning

depends on the situation. Large sets of emoji, however, offer Americans many more choices.

　　A Japanese phone company invented the first set of emoji in 1999. Before that, another Japanese

company let people add heart symbols to messages. At that time, people in Japan also used kaomoji

such as (-_-). Like U.S. emoticons, kaomoji combined letters and symbols from keyboards. Emoji

were much easier to create on cellphones. AThey also helped people show how they were feeling.

This is difficult to tell from short messages like “I’m 5 minutes late.” Emoji soon became popular

with teenagers. In turn, this helped the Japanese mobile phone culture grow faster than in other

countries.

　　The first set of emoji included 176 symbols. Today, the standard set in the U.S. includes 840 symbols. Nevertheless, the most popular symbols are happy faces, hearts, and sad faces. In both

Japan and the U.S., ⑶adults are sometimes confused by how young people use emoji. This is

because there are so many different combinations. One writer even created a version of the classic

novel Moby Dick told with emoji. Groups of friends often develop special meanings for emoji.

Therefore, ⑷the same symbol can mean different things to different people.

　　次の英文を読んで，あとの問いに答えなさい。

　　Travel to foreign countries used to be harder than it is today. It was more expensive, and

travelers had to do much more work. Unless a native speaker could help them, they had to learn

lots of foreign phrases. This ⑴( them / simple / ask / allowed / to / questions ) like “Where is the

airport ?” or “What is your name ?” Travelers brought books of these phrases on trips.

　　Today, computers and cellphones can translate words and sentences from other languages.

Many travelers use these devices instead of foreign phrase books. Computer translations are not

perfect, but they have improved a lot in the last ten years. They work best with common phrases

like “Thank you.” It is much harder to translate complicated sentences from poems or novels. It

is also difficult to translate jokes. Social customs are also hard. So travelers may find it difficult

to ask questions in a way that is respectful of local customs.

　　AOne of the biggest challenges is speech. In order to translate speech, computers must

analyze what travelers say in their native language. Computers break words down into smaller

sounds. These are called “phonemes.” Then they analyze how these sounds are usually

translated. After that, they play the correct sounds in the foreign language. Computers do not

“understand” languages like people do, but they translate speech quickly. When travelers use

their cellphones to translate, they speak to computers owned by phone companies. They usually

wait a few seconds for translations.

　　Computer translations have made travel easier. It is still difficult to have a natural

conversation in a foreign language like German or Arabic. However, cellphones allow travelers

to translate simple phrases. They also have similar programs that read foreign street signs and

e-mail messages. These tools are not perfect. However, they are good enough in most situations.

In the future, travelers may no longer study foreign languages. Instead, they may let machines do

all the work.
