  1. 1.はやく しゃしんを おくって ください。

    1. 1 返って
    2. 2 送って
    3. 3 後って
    4. 4 遅って
    Show answer

    Answer: 2. 送って

    送って（おくって）means 'send' and is the correct kanji for the underlined verb. The sentence means 'Please send the photo(s) quickly.'

    • 1返って（かえって）means 'to return/come back' (intransitive). You cannot 'return' a photo in this context; the correct verb for sending something is 送る.
    • 3後って is not a real word. The kanji 後 can be read あと/うしろ/のち but does not form a verb おくる.
    • 4遅って is not standard Japanese. The verb 遅れる（おくれる）means 'to be late/delayed,' but there is no godan verb form 遅る（おくる）. This is a deliberate distractor using the same reading おくって.
    • 送おくる — to send (a thing, fax, email, etc.)
    • 写真しゃしん — photograph

  1. 2.らいねんの カレンダーを へやの________に かけました。

    1. 1 かべ
    2. 2 もん
    3. 3 たたみ
    4. 4 おくじょう
    Show answer

    Answer: 1. かべ

    The sentence means 'I hung next year's calendar on the ___ of the room.' You hang a calendar on a wall, so かべ (壁, wall) is correct. The particle に with かけました (hung) indicates the surface it was attached to.

    • 2もん (門) means 'gate'—an outdoor structure, not something in a room you hang a calendar on.
    • 3たたみ (畳) means 'tatami mat'—a floor covering; you do not hang things on it.
    • 4おくじょう (屋上) means 'rooftop'—not a place inside a room where you hang a calendar.
    • かべ — 壁 - wall
    • もん — 門 - gate
    • たたみ — 畳 - tatami mat
    • おくじょう — 屋上 - rooftop
    • かける — 掛ける - to hang (something on a wall/surface)

  2. 3.きむらくんと________して、けがをして しまった。

    1. 1 けんか
    2. 2 けいけん
    3. 3 しょうち
    4. 4 しょうかい
    Show answer

    Answer: 1. けんか

    The sentence means 'I got injured because I けんかした (fought) with Kimura-kun.' けんか (喧嘩, fight/quarrel) + して resulted in getting hurt, which is a logical cause of injury.

    • 2けいけん (経験) means 'experience'—getting experience does not naturally cause injury.
    • 3しょうち (承知) means 'consent/understanding'—not an action that leads to injury.
    • 4しょうかい (紹介) means 'introduction'—introducing someone does not cause injury.
    • けんか — 喧嘩 - fight, quarrel
    • けいけん — 経験 - experience
    • しょうち — 承知 - consent, understanding
    • しょうかい — 紹介 - introduction
    • けが — 怪我 - injury

    1. 1 ごちそう
    2. 2 よしゅう
    3. 3 やくそく
    4. 4 よやく
    Show answer

    Answer: 4. よやく

    The sentence means 'I have made a ___ at the restaurant for 7 o'clock.' よやく (予約, reservation) + してある indicates a completed reservation. You reserve a restaurant table, so this is correct.

    • 1ごちそう (ご馳走) means 'feast/treat'—not something you 'do' to a restaurant for a time.
    • 2よしゅう (予習) means 'pre-study/preview'—unrelated to restaurants.
    • 3やくそく (約束) means 'promise/appointment'—used for promising to meet a person, not for reserving a restaurant.
    • よやく — 予約 - reservation, booking
    • ごちそう — ご馳走 - feast, treat
    • よしゅう — 予習 - pre-study, preview
    • やくそく — 約束 - promise, appointment
    • ～てある — state resulting from a completed action

  4. 5.たなかさんは、毎日________に けんきゅうを して いる。

    1. 1 あんしん
    2. 2 ざんねん
    3. 3 しんぱい
    4. 4 ねっしん
    Show answer

    Answer: 4. ねっしん

    The sentence means 'Tanaka-san does research with ねっしん (enthusiasm/devotion) every day.' ねっしんに (熱心に) modifies けんきゅうをしている, describing how diligently he researches.

    • 1あんしん (安心) means 'relief/peace of mind'—not an adverbial manner of doing research.
    • 2ざんねん (残念) means 'regrettable/unfortunate'—does not describe devoted research.
    • 3しんぱい (心配) means 'worry/anxiety'—researching 'with worry' is unnatural in this context.
    • ねっしん — 熱心 - enthusiastic, devoted
    • あんしん — 安心 - relief, peace of mind
    • ざんねん — 残念 - regrettable, unfortunate
    • しんぱい — 心配 - worry, anxiety
    • けんきゅう — 研究 - research
