N3 Vocabulary · Test 70

The word にげる means 'to run away, to escape.' The correct kanji is 逃げる. The sentence means 'When I try to touch this cat, it immediately runs away.'

• 2遠げる is not a real word. 遠 is read とお(い) or えん and means 'far/distant,' but there is no verb 遠げる.
• 3逆げる is not a real word. 逆 is read ぎゃく or さか and means 'reverse/opposite,' but there is no verb 逆げる.
• 4返げる is not a real word. 返 is read かえ(す/る) and means 'to return,' but the reading にげる does not match and 返げる is not valid.

• 逃にげる — to run away, to escape
• 触さわる — to touch

追いつきました（おいつきました） from 追いつく means 'to catch up with.' The brother left home earlier, and the speaker finally caught up with him near the station — やっと追いつきました (finally caught up) fits perfectly. 追いつく describes reaching someone who was ahead of you.

• 1間に合いました（まにあいました） from 間に合う means 'to make it in time' (for a deadline or event). The sentence is not about being on time for something, but about reaching someone who left earlier.
• 2ぶつかりました（ぶつかりました） from ぶつかる means 'to collide' or 'to bump into.' This would mean the speaker physically crashed into the brother, which is not the intended meaning.
• 3届きました（とどきました） from 届く means 'to be delivered' or 'to reach (a destination).' This is used for things being delivered or reaching a place, not for catching up with a person.

• 追おいつく — to catch up with
• 間に合う（まにあう） — to make it in time
• ぶつかる — to collide, to bump into
• 届とどく — to be delivered, to reach

The correct option is 3. The sentence means 'I am bad at swimming, so the other day at the beach, I almost drowned.' The verb 溺れる (おぼれる, to drown) combined with 〜そう (looks like / about to) fits the context of being bad at swimming in the sea.

• 1こおりそう (凍りそう) comes from 凍る (こおり, to freeze). This does not fit the context of swimming poorly in the sea.
• 2たまりそう (溜まりそう) comes from 溜まる (たまる, to accumulate). This makes no sense in the context of swimming.
• 4すべりそう (滑りそう) comes from 滑る (すべる, to slip). While you can slip at the beach, it does not connect to the context of being bad at swimming.

• 溺おぼれる — to drown
• 凍こおる — to freeze
• 溜たまる — to accumulate
• 滑すべる — to slip

The correct option is 2. The sentence means 'The cake I ate at my friend's house was so delicious that I asked them to teach me how to make it and the ingredients.' 材料 (ざいりょう) refers to ingredients or materials, which is the correct word for cooking or baking.

• 1資源 (しげん) means 'resources', typically referring to natural resources, not cooking ingredients.
• 3部品 (ぶひん) means 'parts' or 'components', used for machines or electronics, not food.
• 4原因 (げんいん) means 'cause' or 'reason', which does not fit the context of making a cake.

• 材料ざいりょう — ingredients, materials
• 資源しげん — resources
• 部品ぶひん — parts, components
• 原因げんいん — cause, reason

The correct option is 1. The sentence means 'That person (or brother) always comes to school with me, but today they came separately.' 別々に (べつべつに) means 'separately', which contrasts nicely with いつも一緒に (always together).

• 2半々に (はんはんに) means 'half and half'. This is not used to describe how people come to school.
• 3分けて (わけて) comes from 分ける (わける, to divide). While it means to divide, it is not used as an adverb to describe people coming separately like 別々に is.
• 4区切って (くぎって) comes from 区切る (くぎる, to partition or mark off). This does not fit the context of coming to school.

• 別々べつべつに — separately
• 半々はんはんに — half and half
• 分わける — to divide
• 区切くぎる — to partition, to mark off

The correct option is 1. The sentence means 'When I asked Sato-san to do the work, he accepted it for me.' 引き受ける (ひきうける) means 'to accept' or 'to undertake' a task or responsibility, which fits perfectly with asking someone to do a job.

• 2引き出して (ひきだして) comes from 引き出す (ひきだす, to pull out or withdraw, like money from a bank or a drawer). It does not mean to accept a task.
• 3引いて張って (ひいてはって) is not a standard phrase that fits this context.
• 4引っ掛け (ひっかけ) comes from 引っ掛ける (ひっかける, to hang something up or to deceive/trick someone). It does not fit the context of accepting work.

• 引き受ける（ひきうける） — to accept, to undertake
• 引き出す（ひきだす） — to pull out, to withdraw
• 引っ掛ける（ひっかける） — to hang up, to trick
