N3 Vocabulary · Test 29

駐車 (ちゅうしゃ) means 'parking (a vehicle).' The sentence この場所に駐車してはいけません means 'You must not park in this place.' The verb 駐車する means 'to park,' and 駐車 is the standard kanji for this reading.

• 1駅車 is not a real word. 駅 (えき) means 'station' and is a lookalike for 駐, but 駅車 does not exist as a compound.
• 3停車 (ていしゃ) means 'stopping (a train/vehicle)' and has a different reading (ていしゃ, not ちゅうしゃ). It is used for trains stopping at a station, not for parking a car.
• 4亭車 is not a real word. 亭 is a lookalike for 駐 but has no relevant meaning here.

• 駐車ちゅうしゃ — parking (a vehicle)
• 停車ていしゃ — stopping (a train/vehicle)

移りました (うつりました) is the past form of 移る (うつる), meaning 'to move/transfer (to a new location).' The sentence 事務所が新しいビルに移りました means 'The office moved to a new building.' This is the correct kanji and reading for うつる in the sense of relocating.

• 1着りました is not a standard word. 着る (きる) means 'to wear (clothes),' and its past form is 着ました, not 着りました. The kanji 着 is a plausible lookalike but does not fit the reading うつ.
• 2到りました is not a standard word. 到着 (とうちゃく) means 'arrival,' but 到 alone does not form a verb with the reading うつ.
• 3動りました would be read うごりました (past of 動く, うごく, 'to move'). The reading does not match うつりました, and 動く refers to physical movement rather than relocating to a new place.

• 移うつる — to move/transfer to a new location
• 動うごく — to move (physically)

温泉 (おんせん) means 'hot spring.' The sentence 初めて日本の温泉に行きました means 'I went to a hot spring in Japan for the first time.' 温 (おん) means 'warm/hot' and 泉 (せん) means 'spring/fountain,' together forming the standard word for hot spring.

• 2湯泉 is not a standard word. 湯 (ゆ) means 'hot water' and is a plausible lookalike, but the correct compound uses 温, not 湯.
• 3温池 is not a standard word. 池 (いけ/ち) means 'pond,' not 'spring,' so this does not mean 'hot spring.'
• 4湯池 is not a standard word. Both kanji are wrong — 湯 instead of 温 and 池 instead of 泉.

• 温泉おんせん — hot spring
• 泉せん — spring, fountain

雑誌 (ざっし) means 'magazine.' The sentence 外国の雑誌を買ってきました means 'I bought a foreign magazine.' 雑 (ざつ) means 'miscellaneous/various' and 誌 (し) means 'record/publication,' together forming the standard word for magazine.

• 1稚志 is not a real word. 稚 (ち) is a lookalike for 雑 and means 'young/immature,' and 志 is a simplified lookalike for 誌, but this compound does not exist.
• 3稚誌 is not a real word. 稚 is again a lookalike for 雑 but does not carry the meaning needed here.
• 4雑志 is not the standard orthography. While 志 and 誌 share the same reading (し), the correct kanji for 'magazine' uses 誌 (with the 言 radical), not 志.

• 雑誌ざっし — magazine
• 誌し — record, publication (used in magazine, etc.)

恋しく (こいしく) is the adverbial form of 恋しい (こいしい), meaning 'to miss/long for (someone or something).' The sentence ときどき母の料理が恋しくなります means 'Sometimes I come to miss my mother's cooking.' 恋 (こい/れん) here carries the sense of yearning or longing.

• 2愛しく is read いとしく (not こいしく), meaning 'dear, beloved.' The reading does not match, and the nuance is about cherishing rather than missing something.
• 3親しく is read したしく (not こいしく), meaning 'close, intimate (relationship).' The reading and meaning are both wrong.
• 4好しく is not a standard reading. 好 (す/こう) does not produce the reading こい, and this form is not used in standard Japanese.

• 恋こいしい — to miss, to long for
• 愛いとしい — dear, beloved
• 親したしい — close, intimate

目標 (もくひょう) means 'goal' or 'target'. The sentence translates to 'Our goal is to take 1st place in the next tournament.' This fits perfectly with the context of aiming for 1st place.

• 1予報 (よほう) means 'forecast' (e.g., weather forecast). It does not fit the context of aiming for a tournament victory.
• 3効果 (こうか) means 'effect' or 'result'. You cannot say your 'effect' is to win 1st place.
• 4完成 (かんせい) means 'completion'. It is a noun referring to something being finished, not an aim or goal.

• 目標もくひょう — goal, target, objective
• 予報よほう — forecast, prediction
• 効果こうか — effect, effectiveness
• 完成かんせい — completion

覚めた (さめた) is the past tense of 覚める (to wake up). The phrase 目が覚める (めがさめる) is a fixed expression meaning 'to wake up'. The sentence means 'Last night, while I was sleeping, there was a loud noise and I woke up.'

• 1驚いた (おどろいた) means 'was surprised'. While a loud noise might surprise you, '目が驚いた' is not a natural Japanese expression for waking up.
• 3感じた (かんじた) means 'felt'. '目が感じた' is unnatural in this context.
• 4気付いた (きづいた) means 'noticed' or 'realized'. '目が気付いた' is grammatically and semantically incorrect for waking up.

• 目が覚める（めがさめる） — to wake up (literally: eyes open/wake)
• 驚おどろく — to be surprised
• 感かんじる — to feel
• 気付きづく — to notice, to realize

テーマ means 'theme' or 'topic'. The sentence means 'For this report, I intend to write on the theme of environmental problems.' The phrase 〜というテーマで (on the theme of...) is the correct collocation.

• 1プログラム (program) refers to a schedule or software program, not a topic for a report.
• 2ヒント (hint) refers to a clue or suggestion, not the main subject of a report.
• 4インフォメーション (information) refers to data or facts in general, not a specific subject or theme to write about.

• テーマ（てーま） — theme, topic
• プログラム（ぷろぐらむ） — program
• ヒント（ひんと） — hint, clue
• インフォメーション（いんふぉーめーしょん） — information

穴 (あな) means 'hole'. The verb あく (to open) pairs naturally with 穴 (穴があく = a hole opens/is open). The sentence means 'There was a hole in the bottom of the bag, so some of the snacks I put in fell out.'

• 2傷 (きず) means 'scratch' or 'flaw'. While a bag can get scratched, a scratch wouldn't cause snacks to fall out, and the collocation is 傷がつく rather than 傷があく.
• 3けが (怪我) means 'injury'. A bag cannot get an injury.
• 4汚れ (よごれ) means 'dirt' or 'stain'. A stain would not cause items to fall out of a bag.

• 穴あな — hole
• 傷きず — scratch, wound, flaw
• けが — injury
• 汚よごれ — dirt, stain

合計 (ごうけい) means 'total' or 'sum'. The sentence is adding two amounts (5,000 yen + 10,000 yen), so '合計 15,000 円' (a total of 15,000 yen) is the correct choice.

• 2共通 (きょうつう) means 'common' or 'shared'. It does not refer to a mathematical sum.
• 3全体 (ぜんたい) means 'the whole' or 'entirety'. While it refers to the whole group/thing, it is not used for adding numbers together.
• 4集中 (しゅうちゅう) means 'concentration' or 'focusing'. It is completely unrelated to calculating costs.

• 合計ごうけい — total, sum
• 共通きょうつう — common, shared
• 全体ぜんたい — whole, entirety
• 集中しゅうちゅう — concentration
