MODEL ANSWERS — Band 7.5–8.0

Q11 A significant proportion of routine jobs in manufacturing and logistics are projected to be displaced by automated systems in the coming decades.

Q12 There is growing concern among experts and the public alike that AI poses serious ethical and societal risks.

Q13 Governments must enact comprehensive regulatory frameworks to govern the development and deployment of AI technologies.

解答(例)解説
Q16On the one hand,"一方では" の標準的表現。Discussion Essay 必須
Q17While"〜である一方で" の従属接続詞。Whereas も可
Q18provided that"条件つき" の Academic 表現。as long as も可
Q19Furthermore, / Moreover,"さらに" の Academic な追加表現
Q20In conclusion,"結論として" の標準的な締めフレーズ

コロケーション(Part 1)の正答率が Lexical Resource(LR)スコアに直結します。"establish regulations"、"exacerbate inequality"、"algorithmic bias"、"retraining programmes" のような フレーズ単位 での暗記が最も効率的です。

Academic Register(Part 2)では、口語語彙(very, a lot of, worried, make rules)をゼロにすることが優先課題です。エッセイ執筆中に「この単語、カジュアルすぎないか?」と自問する習慣をつけましょう。

接続表現(Part 3)の多様化は Coherence & Cohesion(CC)スコアを改善します。"However" と "Also" だけに頼らず、"Furthermore" "Provided that" "On the one hand" を使い分けることで CC が 6.0 → 7.0 に上がります。
