Q1
The passage follows Kenji, a Tokyo commuter, who drives a ハイブリッド車 (hybrid vehicle) using 回生ブレーキ (regenerative braking) and an インバーター (inverter) to manage モーター (electric motor) torque, while a リチウムイオン電池 (lithium-ion battery) stores energy; it links this to post-1970s efficiency ideals, 省エネ (energy-saving) culture, and government補助金 (subsidies) for low-emission cars; daily life changes include quieter streets, reduced gasoline purchases, and charging at workplace 充電器 (chargers). What impact has hybrid and electric automotive technology had on Japanese society?
