こんにちは!Japancake です ☆彡
5月も後半に入ってきました。
英検受験者の方々の5月のこの時期は、
もう既に大忙し!ε=ε=ε=ε=\(;´□`)/
特に今年から準2級と3級にも作文が導入されるので、
資料も少ないし、対策に対する対策が必要ですね レ(゚∀゚;)
と、言う訳で、今回は3級用の作文の例題と回答例をいくつか作ってみました。
3級の語数目安は25~35語なので、大抵、好き嫌い・好きなスポーツ、食べ物、趣味、週末の過ごし方などとその理由が出題されるのではないでしょうか。

今回は、英検協会の出している問題例の、”What is your favorite - -?” をメインに例題を作成しました。回答するポイントとしては、質問の復唱、です(語数も稼げます!わーーい!)
例えば、質問が↓だった場合:
What is your favorite color?
My favorite color is red. I like red the best because it is the color of my favorite character. Also, red is my dad's favorite color, too. (27 words)
回答の1文目は、
My favorite color is red.
とします。そして、2文目にはその理由がくるので、
I like red the best because it is the color of my favorite character.
とします。文頭は、”my favorite”に対して ”I like” で文章を繋ぎます。そして、「理由」なので、”because” と続けます。3文目は、「また/そして/それに」の ”Also” で始める文章にします。
Also, red is my dad's favorite color, too.
この3文目の内容は、新たな理由でも、1文目・2文目に関することでも、とにかく ”my favorite - -”に関することを書きましょう!
あと、文脈に合わせて3文目の最後に、”after school” や ”before/after dinner” などを持ってくるのも、語数稼ぎになりますね (^^
何問かやってみると、回答パターンにも慣れてきて回答し易くなっていくと、いいなぁ、と思います (/^▽^)/
