（ ）に入れるのに最もよいものを、1・2・3・4から一つ選びなさい。
父は、たくさんの社員と一緒に、車を作る（ ）で働いています。
Explanation: 車を作る describes the place that goes in the blank: a place where cars are manufactured. 工場 means “factory,” which fits this activity. 事務所 is an office for administrative or other desk work, 駐車場 is a parking lot, and 店 is a shop where goods are sold. Although people can work at all these places, only 工場 naturally fits the description 車を作る here.
このアパートは、駅まで歩いて四十分もかかるし、近くにバスも来ないので、車がない人には（ ）です。
Explanation: Walking to the station takes as long as forty minutes, and no buses come nearby, making daily travel difficult for someone without a car. 不便 describes this lack of convenience. 便利 expresses the opposite, while にぎやか describes a lively or bustling place. 危険 means “dangerous,” but the sentence gives no evidence of danger: a long walk and a lack of buses indicate inconvenience, not necessarily a safety risk.
つぎのことばの使い方として最もよいものを、1・2・3・4から一つ選びなさい。
復習
Explanation: 復習 means reviewing something you have already learned to reinforce your understanding or memory. Reviewing today’s lesson at home fits this meaning. In option 1, looking up an unfamiliar word requires 調べる. In option 2, asking a teacher how to read a kanji requires 聞く; 先生に復習する does not express asking a question. In option 3, studying material before learning it in class for the first time is 予習, rather than 復習.
不便
Explanation: 不便 describes inconvenience caused by conditions that make everyday activities difficult, such as having no train station or buses available when you do not have a car. A difficult math problem is 難しい, rather than 不便. Feeling unwell is expressed with 気分が悪い. Shoes that are too small can be described as きつい, or you can say 足が痛い if they hurt your feet; 足が不便 does not naturally describe discomfort from tight shoes.
つぎの文の（ ）に入れるのに最もよいものを、1・2・3・4から一つ選びなさい。
このパンは昨日買いました。今日は硬くなっていて、歯が痛い私には（ ）。
Explanation: 食べにくい combines the verb stem 食べ with にくい to mean “difficult to eat.” The bread has become hard, and the speaker has a toothache, so eating it is difficult. 食べやすい means “easy to eat,” which contradicts these details. 食べすぎ refers to eating too much, but no excessive amount is mentioned. 食べたい expresses a desire to eat; it does not naturally fit 私には here, which identifies the person for whom eating the bread is difficult.
昨日、田中さんが私の仕事を手伝ってくれました。私はまだ一人でできないので、今日も田中さんに手伝って（ ）。
Explanation: ～てもらう means receiving someone’s help, and 田中さんに identifies Tanaka as the person providing it. Adding つもりです expresses the speaker’s intention to receive that help again today. ～てあげる would make the speaker the person helping, reversing the roles established in the context; helping Tanaka would also normally use 田中さんを手伝う. The alternatives ending in たそうです report something that supposedly already happened, rather than expressing the speaker’s own plan.
昨日、会社で歯が痛くなったので、仕事の後で歯医者へ行きました。でも、着いたときにはもう閉まっていたので、歯を（ ）。
Explanation: ～てもらう expresses receiving a service from someone, and ～てもらえませんでした means that the speaker could not receive it. Since the dental office was already closed, the speaker could not have their teeth examined. 見てもらいました would mean the examination happened, contradicting the context. 見てあげました would mean the speaker examined someone else’s teeth. 見てもらうつもりでした describes a past intention, but the office being closed explains why the examination was unavailable, not why the speaker intended to have it.
昨日は駅前の店で夕飯を（ ）が、店が休みだったので、家で食べました。
Explanation: ～つもりでした expresses a past intention that was not necessarily carried out. Here, the speaker planned to eat at the restaurant, but it was closed, so they ate at home instead. 食べてきました and 食べてしまいました both indicate that eating at the restaurant actually happened, contradicting the explanation that it was closed. 食べないつもりでした means the speaker intended not to eat there, which does not naturally fit が introducing an obstacle that forced a change of plan.
あの赤ちゃんは、今はまだ泣いていませんが、顔が赤くなって、もうすぐ（ ）。
Explanation: The verb stem 泣き + そうです expresses an impression based on visible signs: the baby’s face is turning red, suggesting that crying is about to start. This fits both まだ泣いていません (“is not crying yet”) and もうすぐ (“very soon”). The other options use a plain verb form + そうです to report information heard from someone else. 泣いた and 泣かなかった describe past events, which do not fit もうすぐ here, while 泣いている describes ongoing crying, contradicting the statement that the baby is not crying yet.

つぎの文章を読んで、文章全体の内容を考えて、ⒶからⒺの中に入る最もよいものを、1・2・3・4から一つ選びなさい。
古いテーブル
私は家で絵をかくのが好きです。でも、自分の机は小さいので、先週、次の日曜日に大きい机をⒶ。まだ店には行っていませんでした。
土曜日に父と家を片付けていたら、父が古いテーブルを見つけました。父は「古いから、もう使えないでしょう」と言いました。Ⓑ、私は「洗えば、まだ使えると思うよ」と答えました。父と洗うと、とてもきれいになったので、自分の部屋に運びました。
椅子に座って使ってみましたが、テーブルがⒸ、絵をかきにくかったです。父にそう言うと、父はもっと低い椅子を持ってきてくれました。
父が持ってきた椅子にⒹ、今度は絵がかきやすかったです。大きい紙も置けたので、その日はそこで夕方まで絵をかきました。
日曜日の朝、父に「今日は机を買いに行くんだね」と言われました。私は「ううん、Ⓔから、買いに行かないよ」と答えました。
Ⓐ
Explanation: 買うつもりでした expresses a past intention: the narrator planned to buy a larger desk because the current one was too small. The story then explains why that plan changed after an old table became usable. 買わないつもりでした expresses an intention not to buy, which conflicts with the reason given at the beginning. 買ってもらいました means someone bought it for the narrator, while 買ってありました indicates that it had already been bought in preparation for use; both describe a completed purchase rather than the unfulfilled plan developed in the story.
Ⓑ
Explanation: でも introduces a contrast: the father thinks the table can no longer be used because it is old, but the narrator believes it will still be usable after washing. それに adds a supporting point, whereas the narrator challenges the father’s opinion. だから introduces a consequence, and それでは introduces a response or next step based on what was just said; neither fits this disagreement.
Ⓒ
Explanation: 低すぎて combines 低い with すぎる to express “too low,” and the て form connects this problem to the difficulty drawing. The key clue is that a lower chair makes drawing easier, showing that the table was too low relative to the narrator’s original sitting position. 高くなったので describes a change in height that the story never mentions. 低くなかったので and 高すぎて do not fit the solution: lowering the chair would make the tabletop even higher relative to the person sitting.
Ⓓ
Explanation: 座ってみたら combines 〜てみる, which means trying an action, with 〜たら to introduce what happened or was discovered afterward. Here, trying the lower chair reveals that drawing is now easier. 座ってはいけないので introduces a prohibition that the story does not support. 座る前は places the improvement before sitting down, breaking the connection between trying the chair and discovering the result. 座らないで means doing something without sitting, so it does not fit the description of testing the replacement chair.
Ⓔ
Explanation: かける is the potential form of かく and expresses the ability to draw. With the lower chair, the narrator can comfortably use the old table, which explains the decision not to buy a new desk. 使わないつもりだ and 捨てる予定だ express plans to stop using or discard the table, neither of which is supported by the story or explains that decision. 絵がかけない contradicts the previous paragraph, where the narrator successfully spent the afternoon drawing at the table.
つぎの文章を読んで、質問に答えなさい。答えは、1・2・3・4から最もよいものを一つ選びなさい。
旅行中、花に水をあげていただけませんか。庭と二階の部屋に花があります。庭の花には、晴れた日に水をあげてください。雨の日は要りません。二階の部屋は窓を閉めてあります。部屋の花には、晴れた日も雨の日も水をあげてください。水は少しでいいです。あげすぎると、下にある本が濡れてしまいます。よろしくお願いします。
田中
今日は雨です。山田さんはどうすればいいですか。
Explanation: The instructions distinguish between the garden flowers and the flowers upstairs. The garden flowers need water on sunny days only; 雨の日は要りません states that watering is unnecessary on rainy days. The indoor flowers need water 晴れた日も雨の日も, meaning on both sunny and rainy days. 水は少しでいいです specifies a small amount, and あげすぎると warns that too much water will get the books underneath wet. Therefore, today’s rain means Yamada should water only the indoor flowers, using a little water. Option 2 leaves those flowers unwatered, option 3 unnecessarily waters the garden flowers, and option 4 waters the wrong flowers.
本を読むことについて、「私」はどう考えていますか。
Explanation: The writer enjoys both discovering an unfamiliar story and rereading a familiar one. On a first reading, imagining what the characters will do is part of the enjoyment; on a second reading, knowing the story still allows the writer to explore different thoughts. Option 1 describes the friend’s approach, which the writer explicitly rejects for an unfamiliar book. Option 2 contradicts the writer’s enjoyment of rereading, while option 4 introduces a comparison the passage never makes: また読むのも好き means the writer likes rereading too, without saying it is more enjoyable than reading for the first time.
