Your English teacher has given you this article to read to prepare for a class debate.
When I was in elementary school， my favorite time at school was when I talked and ran around with my friends during recess， the long break after lunch.Recently， I learned that some elementary schools in the US have changed the timing of recess to before lunch.In 2001， less than 5％ of elementary schools had recess before lunch.By 2012， more than one-third of schools had changed to this new system.Surveys were conducted to find out more about this change.Here are the results.
It’s good to have recess before lunch because：
＊ Students get hungrier and want to eat.
＊ Students don’t rush meals to play outside after lunch.
＊ Students are calmer and focus better in the afternoon.
＊ Less food is wasted.
＊ Fewer students say they have headaches or stomachaches.
＊ Fewer students visit the school nurse.
However， there are some challenges to having recess before lunch：
＊ Students may forget to wash their hands before eating.
＊ Students may get too hungry as lunch time is later.
＊ Schools will have to change their timetables.
＊ Teachers and staff will have to alter their schedules.
This is an interesting idea and more schools need to consider it.As a child， I remember being very hungry before lunch.You might say having lunch later is not practical.However， some say schools can offer a small healthy morning snack.Having food more often is better for students’ health， too.What about washing hands？ Well， why not make it part of the schedule？
Which of the following problems could be solved by the author’s suggestion？（ 14 ）

英語の先生が、クラス討論の準備として、この文章を読むようにあなたに渡しました。
著者の提案によって解決できるのはどれかを問う問題です。
訳）
私が小学生だったころ、学校で１番好きな時間は、昼食後の休み時間に友達と話したり走り回ったりすることでした。最近、アメリカのいくつかの小学校では、休み時間のタイミングを昼食前に変更したと知りました。２００１年には、昼食前に休み時間を設けている小学校は５％未満でした。しかし２０１２年までに、３分の１以上の学校がこの新しい制度に変更しました。この変化について詳しく知るために、調査が行われました。以下がその結果です。
・recess（名詞） : 休憩時間という意味です。
・less than : ～未満のという意味です。
・more than : ～以上のという意味です。
・survey（名詞） : 調査、アンケートという意味です。
・conduct（動詞） : 調査を行う、実施するという意味です。
昼食前に休み時間があると良い理由：
・生徒がお腹をすかせ、食べたい気持ちになる。
・昼食後に外で遊びたいからと急いで食事をしなくなる。
・生徒が落ち着き、午後により集中できる。
・食べ物の無駄が減る。
・頭痛や腹痛を訴える生徒が減る。
・保健室に行く生徒が減る。
・rush（動詞） : 急ぐという意味です。
・calm（形容詞） : 静かなという意味です。
・wasted（形容詞） : 不要な、無駄なという意味です。
しかし、昼食前に休み時間を設けるには課題もある：
・生徒が食事前に手を洗うのを忘れるかもしれない。
・昼食が遅くなるため、生徒がお腹を空かせすぎる可能性がある。
・学校は時間割を変更する可能性がある。
・先生やスタッフもスケジュールを変えなければならない。
・alter（動詞）: 変更するという意味です。
これは興味深いアイディアで、より多くの学校が検討する必要があります。子供の頃、私は昼食前にとてもお腹が空いていたのを覚えています。「昼食を遅くするのは現実的でない」と言う人もいるかもしれません。しかし、学校が健康的な朝のおやつを提供すれば良いという意見もあります。食べ物をより頻繁に食べるということは生徒の健康にも良いのです。手洗いについてはどうでしょう？それをスケジュールに組み込めば良いのです。
・consider（動詞） : 検討するという意味です。
・pratical（形容詞）: 現実的な、実践的なという意味です。
不正解
学校の時間割を変更する必要があるという意味です。
昼食前に休み時間を移動するためには、タイムスケジュールの変更が必要になるため不正解です。
不正解
教職員が遅く昼食をとらなければならないという意味です。
文章には、教職員の朝食時間についての言及や解決策が述べられていないため不正解です。
正解
生徒が手を洗わなくなる可能性があるという意味です。
昼食前に休み時間を設ける課題の欄に、生徒が食事前に手を洗うのを忘れるかもしれないと述べられています。それに対し著者は次の段落で、「スケジュールに組み込めば良いのです」とこの問題を解決する提案をしているため正解です。
・less likely to : する可能性が低いという意味です。
不正解
生徒が昼食を食べ残すという意味です。
昼食前に休み時間があると良い理由の欄に、食べ物の無駄が減ると述べられています。メリットであり、問題ではないので不正解です。
難易度が高い問題ですが、手洗いをスケジュールに組み込むという提案によって問題は解決できるので、Students will be less likely to wash their hands.が正解です。
