• 2電 reads でん, meaning 'electricity' — wrong reading and meaning for ゆき.
• 3雷 reads かみなり (or らい), meaning 'thunder/lightning' — wrong reading and meaning for ゆき.
• 4雲 reads くも, meaning 'cloud' — wrong reading and meaning for ゆき.

• 雪ゆき — snow

• 雲くも — cloud

The sentence means 'I consulted with my younger brother and chose a present to give to my mother.' そうだん（相談）means 'consultation / discussion,' and そうだん して means 'consulting with / discussing with (someone).' Choosing a present together after consulting fits perfectly.

• 1さんせい（賛成）means 'agreement / approval.' さんせいして means 'agreeing with,' which implies approving someone's opinion rather than jointly deciding on a present.
• 2あいさつ（挨拶）means 'greeting.' あいさつして means 'greeting,' which has no logical connection to choosing a present.
• 4へんじ（返事）means 'reply / response.' へんじして means 'replying,' which does not fit the context of choosing a present together.

• 相談そうだん — consultation / discussion
• 賛成さんせい — agreement / approval
• 挨拶あいさつ — greeting
• 返事へんじ — reply / response

The correct answer is 1. はこんで (運んで, te-form of 運ぶ 'to carry/transport'). The sentence means 'Please carry this luggage over there.' The verb 運ぶ is the natural verb for moving luggage to a different location.

• 2つたえて (伝えて, te-form of 伝える 'to convey/tell/pass on a message') is used for communicating information, not for physically moving luggage.
• 3ひろって (拾って, te-form of 拾う 'to pick up') means to pick something up from the ground, not to carry it somewhere.
• 4むかえて (迎えて, te-form of 迎える 'to welcome/meet') is used for greeting or meeting someone, not for transporting luggage.

• 運はこぶ — to carry, to transport
• 伝つたえる — to convey, to pass on (a message)
• 拾ひろう — to pick up
• 迎むかえる — to welcome, to meet

The correct answer is 2. きけん (危険, 'dangerous') is a na-adjective. The sentence means 'If you use this machine incorrectly, it is very dangerous.' The context of making a mistake with a machine naturally leads to danger.

• 1けっこう (結構, 'fine/quite') does not fit the warning context; it expresses that something is acceptable or sufficient, not dangerous.
• 3じゅう (重, 'heavy') is not a standard standalone na-adjective meaning in this context, and 'heavy' does not logically follow from using a machine incorrectly.
• 4あんぜん (安全, 'safe') is the opposite of what the sentence implies — using a machine wrongly would not make it safe.

• 危険きけん — dangerous (na-adjective)
• 結構けっこう — fine, quite, acceptable
• 安全あんぜん — safe (na-adjective)
• 使い方（つかいかた） — way of using, how to use

The correct answer is 3. とめないで (止めないで, negative te-form of 止める 'to stop/park a vehicle'). The sentence means 'Please do not park cars in front of the entrance.' 止める (とめる) specifically refers to stopping or parking a vehicle, which fits 車 (car) perfectly.

• 1やめないで (te-form negative of やめる 'to quit/stop doing something') means 'don't quit/stop an action,' but やめる is not used for parking vehicles.
• 2しめないで (te-form negative of しめる/閉める 'to close') means 'don't close,' which does not relate to parking a car.
• 4きめないで (te-form negative of きめる/決める 'to decide') means 'don't decide,' which is unrelated to the context of parking.

• 止とめる — to stop, to park (a vehicle)
• やめる — to quit, to stop doing something
• 閉しめる — to close
• 決きめる — to decide
• 入口いりぐち — entrance
