The passage opens with '毎週日曜日の朝、さんぽをしています' (Every Sunday morning I go for a walk), establishing a habitual action. The sentence with (22) says 'いつも朝6時に起きて一人で(22)' — 'いつも' (always) signals an ongoing/repeated habit, so the present-tense form 'さんぽします' (I walk) is correct: 'I always wake up at 6 a.m. and walk by myself.'
1さんぽしました is past tense ('walked'). The adverb 'いつも' (always) indicates a habitual/repeated action, so past tense does not fit the pattern describing what the writer always does every Sunday.
3さんぽしませんでした is past negative ('did not walk'). This contradicts the opening statement that the writer walks every Sunday morning.
4さんぽしません is present negative ('do not walk'). This directly contradicts '毎週日曜日の朝、さんぽをしています' (I walk every Sunday morning).
毎週 — every week
さんぽする — to take a walk
いつも — always, usually
起きる — to wake up
2.( 23 )に入るのに最もよいものはどれか。
1それから
2つぎの 日曜日に
36時に
4毎年
Show answer
Answer: 1. それから
The preceding sentence says 'I walked about 1 hour to Sakura River,' and the following sentence says 'I went to a café near Sakura River.' The connector 'それから' (then / after that) correctly links these two sequential events: 'I walked to Sakura River. After that, I went to a café near Sakura River.'
2つぎの日曜日に means 'on the next Sunday.' The café visit happened on the same Sunday as the walk to Sakura River, not the following week, so this breaks the timeline.
36時に means 'at 6 o'clock.' The writer woke up at 6 a.m., but the café visit happened after a 1-hour walk — not at 6 o'clock — so this time expression does not fit.
4毎年 means 'every year.' The passage is about a single Sunday last week, not a yearly event, so this is contextually wrong.
それから — then, after that
つぎ — next
毎年 — every year
きっさてん — café, coffee shop
3.( 24 )に入るのに最もよいものはどれか。
1の
2と
3で
4は
Show answer
Answer: 4. は
The sentence is 'レストランの名前(24)「サワディカ」です' — 'As for the restaurant's name, it is Sawadika.' The particle は marks 'レストランの名前' as the topic of the sentence, which is the natural and grammatically correct structure: (Topic) は (Noun) です.
1の is a genitive/connecting particle ('of'). 'レストランの名前の「サワディカ」です' is ungrammatical — you cannot link a noun phrase and a quoted name with の in this pattern.
2と means 'and' or 'with' (quotation). 'レストランの名前と「サワディカ」です' would mean 'The restaurant's name and Sawadika are…,' which makes no sense here.
3で marks means/location/instrument. 'レストランの名前で「サワディカ」です' would mean 'By/with the restaurant's name, it is Sawadika,' which is not a natural Japanese sentence structure for identifying the name.
名前 — name
レストラン — restaurant
4.( 25 )に入るのに最もよいものはどれか。
1行きました
2来ました
3行ったからです
4来たからです
Show answer
Answer: 2. 来ました
The writer works at the restaurant 'サワディカ.' A Japanese friend came there to eat, so from the writer's perspective the friend came TO the restaurant: '日本人のともだちが「サワディカ」に食べに来ました' (A Japanese friend came to 'Sawadika' to eat). The particle に indicates the destination, and 来ました (came) is correct because the speaker is already at the restaurant.
1行きました means 'went.' Since the writer is at the restaurant, the friend's movement toward the writer is 来ました (came), not 行きました (went). Using 行く would describe movement away from the speaker's location.
3行ったからです means 'because (I/he) went.' Grammatically, the sentence needs a simple past verb to complete '食べに( )', not a reason clause ending in からです. Also, 行く (go) is the wrong direction.
4来たからです means 'because (he) came.' While 来た has the right direction, the からです ending creates a reason clause ('because…'), which does not fit the sentence structure 'ともだちが…食べに( )。' The sentence needs a plain past verb, not a causal clause.
行く — to go
来る — to come
食べる — to eat
ともだち — friend
5.( 26 )に入るのに最もよいものはどれか。
1りょうりは 楽しいです
2りょうりが ほしかったです
3ぜんぶ おいしかったです
4ぜんぶで 1000円です
Show answer
Answer: 3. ぜんぶ おいしかったです
The writer asked 'りょうりはどうでしたか' (How was the food?). The friend's reply should evaluate the food. 'ぜんぶおいしかったです' (Everything was delicious) directly answers the question about the food's quality, and the writer's reaction 'うれしかったです' (I was happy) confirms the friend gave a positive response about the meal.
1りょうりは楽しいです means 'The cooking/food is fun.' 楽しい describes an enjoyable experience/activity, not food quality. Also, it is in the present tense, while the question 'どうでしたか' is past tense, so the tenses do not match.
2りょうりがほしかったです means 'I wanted the food/dish.' This does not answer 'How was the food?' — it expresses a desire rather than an evaluation, and it makes little sense after the friend has already eaten.
4ぜんぶで1000円です means 'In total it is 1000 yen.' This answers a question about price, not about how the food tasted, so it does not fit the question 'りょうりはどうでしたか.'
りょうり — cooking, dish, food
楽しい — fun, enjoyable
ほしい — wanted, desirable
おいしい — delicious, tasty
ぜんぶ — everything, all
