This question's explanation and your answers so far.
解説
問 8
Incorrectア
“Capacity” means capacity, processing power, or holding capability, expressing how much load a system or facility can handle. It is not a term that describes an urban development solution, so it is incorrect.
- イ
正解 The correct answer is イ, “Smart city.” A smart city refers to an urban development concept and solution that uses ICT (information and communications technology), IoT, and data to make the functions of cities and regions—such as transportation, energy, and public-administration services—more efficient and advanced, aiming to solve regional issues and revitalize the area. The question’s description of “urban development that, against the backdrop of population decline and aging, uses ICT to make the functions and services of cities and regions more efficient and advanced and to achieve the solving of regional issues and revitalization” is exactly the definition of a smart city, so イ is the most appropriate.
Incorrectウ
“Diversity” means diversity and refers to the idea of making use of people who differ in gender, nationality, age, and so on (such as diversity management). It differs from the context of using ICT to make urban functions more efficient and advanced, so it is incorrect.
Incorrectエ
“University” is a term meaning university and is not a term that describes an urban development solution. It merely sounds similar but does not match in content, so it is incorrect.
ここがポイント
- Smart city = an urban development concept that uses ICT, IoT, and data to make the functions and services of cities and regions more efficient and advanced, thereby seeking to solve regional issues and revitalize the area.
- Be able to distinguish confusing terms with similar endings like “-city / -ity” (Capacity, Diversity, University) by their original meanings (capacity, diversity, university).
