内訳 means "a breakdown (of costs or totals)." Sentence 1: "I put the breakdown of the trip's costs into a table." In 2, 言い訳 (excuse) fits; in 3, 中 (inside); in 4, 物語 (story).

"As soon as the doors of the hall opened, the waiting guests rushed in all at once." Verb + や否や means "as soon as." ともなく means "without clear intention," ものなら is "if," and ことなしに means "without doing," so they do not fit.

उत्तर: 4 にとどまらず

"This festival is loved not only by local residents but also by tourists from abroad." Nにとどまらず means "not limited to N," and it fits with 〜にも. にひきかえ shows contrast, をよそに means "ignoring," and にかこつけて means "using N as an excuse."

उत्तर: 1 いかんによっては

"Depending on the outcome of future negotiations, the plan itself may be reconsidered." Nいかんによっては means "depending on N." いかんを問わず means "regardless of," which contradicts the idea of possibility. とあいまって (combined with) and にもまして (more than) do not make sense here.

"Since we caused great trouble for an important client, the manager will have to go and apologize in person." ずにはすまない means "it won't do not to." ずじまい means "ended up not doing," んばかり means "as if about to," and ずともよい (need not) contradicts 以上.

उत्तर: 4 お見えになった

Guest: "I'm Yamada. I have a 3 o'clock appointment with Mr. Tanaka in Sales." Receptionist: "I was told by Tanaka to show you to the meeting room when you arrived." The guest is the one coming, so the honorific お見えになる (come) is correct. お目にかかる and 伺う are humble forms, and 参られる is an incorrect mix of humble and honorific.

उत्तर: 1 今日を限りに

The order is 3→4→1→2: 大好きな酒も、医者に言われたこともあり今日を限りにやめようと決心した。"Partly because my doctor told me to, I decided to give up my beloved alcohol as of today." Nを限りに means "with N as the last time."

उत्तर: 3 心配りといい

The order is 4→1→3→2: この旅館は、料理の味といい従業員の心配りといいどれをとっても文句のつけようがない。"At this inn, whether it's the taste of the food or the staff's care, there is nothing to complain about." AといいBといい means "both A and B, in every respect."

The order is 3→2→4→1: 父は、家族のためとあればどんな苦労も惜しまない人だった。"My father was a person who would spare no effort if it was for his family." とあれば means "if it is for / if that is the case."

उत्तर: 2 過ち

The order is 3→4→2→1: 学生時代の失敗も、今となっては若さゆえの過ちとして笑って話せるようになった。"Now I can laugh about my school-day failures as mistakes of youth." Nゆえの means "caused by N" and is a written style.

उत्तर: 3 活躍されることを

The order is 4→3→1→2: 本日卒業する皆さんが、それぞれの道で活躍されることを願ってやみません。"I sincerely hope that all of you graduating today will do well in your own paths." Vてやまない means "to keep ~ing from the heart."

उत्तर: 1 とはいうものの

The writer first accepts that focusing on work makes sense, then says that is not entirely true. とはいうものの (that said / even so) admits the first point and turns to the opposite. したがって (therefore), そのうえ (moreover) and つまり (in other words) continue in the same direction.

उत्तर: 4 なりかねない

The writer means that in a workplace where people hesitate to ask, small mistakes may turn into big problems. Vかねない expresses the risk of a bad result. なりえない denies the possibility, and なるまでもない / なるにはあたらない mean "there is no need to."

उत्तर: 2 もらえている

The speaker feels safe because coworkers know a little about them, so the receiving form 知ってもらえている fits. 知ってあげている makes the speaker the one who knows, 知っておいている is not a correct form, and 知ってしまっている sounds regretful, which does not match 安心感 (sense of security).

उत्तर: 3 それこそが

それこそが points back to "building relationships" and stresses that this, and nothing else, is the greatest value. It matches the ending なのだ. それどころか (on the contrary), それにしても (even so) and それなのに (despite that) are connectors and do not complete the sentence.

उत्तर: 1 と言えよう

After そう考えると (thinking this way), the writer gives the conclusion: chat can be said to be one of the foundations of work. と言えよう means "it can be said that." とは限らない (not necessarily) contradicts the argument, and どころではない and わけにはいかない do not make sense here.

उत्तर: 3 使い続けることで、道具を自分だけの姿に変えていくこと

The last sentence says that raising a tool is not keeping it like new, but leaving the marks of the user's life on it. The wallet became one of a kind through daily use, so 3 is correct. Option 1 is directly denied in the text.

उत्तर: 1 昼食の営業時間が長くなり、社員は食堂で現金が使えなくなる。

Lunch hours are extended to 11:00-14:00, and payment will be only by employee ID card, with no more cash. So 1 is correct. Dinner service ends for everyone, and guest meal tickets are still sold for cash, so 2, 3 and 4 do not match.

उत्तर: 4 冷たい食べ物は甘さを感じにくいため、砂糖を多めに入れて作られている。

The text says the tongue reacts more weakly to sweetness when food is cold, so ice cream contains a lot of sugar to taste right when cold. So 4 is correct. The sugar does not increase when it melts, cold makes sweetness weaker, and cooled food tastes less sweet, so 1, 2 and 3 are wrong.

उत्तर: 2 相手が言葉を探している間、口をはさまずに待てる人

The writer says a truly good listener is someone who is not afraid of silence, and praises waiting quietly while the speaker searches for words. So 2 is correct. Option 1 is only the common image, and 3 is the behavior the writer criticizes.

उत्तर: 2 子どもが自分なりに考えていたことが、生かされずに終わるということ

The 'line of reasoning' refers to the small hypothesis behind the child's question, such as the idea that fish should close their eyes to sleep. When the adult only gives the answer, that thinking is left unused. So 2 is correct.

उत्तर: 4 子どもが、自分で考えるより人に聞くほうがよいと思うようになること

At the end of the second paragraph, the writer says children learn that asking someone is faster than finding the answer themselves. So 4 is correct. The answers adults give are correct, so 1 does not fit, and 2 and 3 are not in the text.

उत्तर: 1 大人は子どもの問いに対して、子ども自身の考えを引き出すように接するべきだ。

The writer recommends asking 'Why do you think so?' and says the adult's role is to grow the question. This means drawing out the child's own thinking, so 1 is correct. The writer does not suggest making children look things up or not answering at all, so 3 and 4 are wrong.

उत्तर: 3 眠っている間に、残すべき記憶を長期的な保管場所へ移すこと

The sentence just before says that during sleep the brain replays the day's experiences and moves what should be kept to long-term storage. 'This work' refers to that, so 3 is correct. Option 1 is the earlier stage, and 2 is something done before sleeping.

उत्तर: 2 後で使うと知っている情報は、眠った後によく残りやすい。

The group that slept did better, and the difference was largest when people were told there would be a test later. This shows that information known to be useful later stays better after sleep, so 2 is correct. Sleep length and number of words were not compared, so 1 and 4 are wrong.

उत्तर: 4 新しいことを覚えたら、その後で眠ることが記憶に役立つ。

The last paragraph says that sleeping after learning is the most efficient way for memory, so 4 is correct. The brain lets go of unneeded information, so 2 is wrong, and the writer says sleep is not just for resting the body, so 1 does not fit.

उत्तर: 1 冗談であることを示す話し方をしていなかったから

The second paragraph explains that people there signal a joke by changing their tone or laughing, but the writer spoke in a flat tone, so the signal was missing. So 1 is correct. The text says the words themselves were correct, so 2 is wrong.

उत्तर: 3 場の空気を悪くしたことを恥ずかしく思う気持ち

Kao ga atsuku naru (my face gets hot) expresses embarrassment. The writer remembers the awkward moment when the joke silenced the table and made the roommate apologize. So 3 is correct. The writer knows the cause was their own way of speaking, so it is not dissatisfaction (4).

उत्तर: 2 人と打ち解けるためのやりとりには、言葉以外の決まりも関わっている。

The last paragraph says that exchanges that bring people closer, like humor, depend on unwritten rules outside the words. So 2 is correct. The writer says you learn these by joining people and making mistakes rather than from textbooks, so 4 is wrong.

उत्तर: 4 文章から必要な中身を、できるだけ効率よく得ればよいという考え方

Just before, the text says speed-reading treats writing as a container of information and aims to take out the contents efficiently. That is 'this way of thinking', so 4 is correct. Option 2 is the writer's own experience, not what the phrase refers to.

उत्तर: 1 結論に至るまでの過程にこそ、本を読む意味があると考えるから

In the third paragraph, the writer says the meaning lies in following the path to a decision or conclusion, and that what is lost by reading fast is exactly this 'middle part'. So 1 is correct. The writer does not discuss accuracy of information (2).

उत्तर: 3 本の内容が自分の考えと結びつき、身についていくこと

The fourth paragraph says that reading slowly creates moments to think, and in those moments the book's words connect with your own ideas and become yours. So 3 is correct. Looking away from the book is for thinking, not for avoiding tiredness (4).

उत्तर: 2 読む目的に応じて、読む速さを使い分けるのがよい。

In the last paragraph, the writer says the real issue is choosing how to read according to the purpose: read documents fast and moving books slowly. So 2 is correct. The writer does not reject speed-reading, so 1 is wrong, and 4 is the opposite of the text.

उत्तर: 1 動物園は、希少な動物を守るうえで役割を果たしている。

A says protecting endangered animals is one of the zoo's most important roles, and B also admits zoos have helped protect rare animals. So 1 is correct. Option 2 is only in B, 3 is only in A, and 4 is in neither.

उत्तर: 4 Aは保護と教育の役割を充実させるべきだと述べ、Bは動物本来の暮らしを優先すべきだと述べている。

A ends by saying zoos should further strengthen their role as centers for protection and education, while B says zoos should put first letting animals live as they naturally do. So 4 is correct. B accepts showing fewer species, so 1 is wrong.

उत्तर: 3 レポートに、書き手自身の考えが表れていないということ

The next sentence explains that the reports do not say how the writer took in the information or what they thought. So 3 is correct. The information is said to be well collected, so 2 is wrong, and nothing says there are too many quotations (4).

उत्तर: 2 多様な意見があることを理由に、自分で判断することを避けること

In the fourth paragraph, the writer says that with more information it is easier to find reasons not to judge, and 'there are many opinions' becomes an excuse to stop thinking. So 2 is correct. The quotations are described as accurate, so 3 is wrong.

उत्तर: 4 「調べる」は既にある答えを探すことであり、「考える」は自分なりの筋道を立てることだ。

The third paragraph says that looking things up means finding an answer someone already gave, while thinking means building your own line of reasoning. So 4 is correct. The text says researching collects material for thinking, so 3 reverses the order.

उत्तर: 1 情報があふれる時代だからこそ、仮にでも自分の立場を決めて考えることが必要だ。

The writer says thinking for yourself means taking a position, even a temporary one, and that today, when everyone can reach the same information, what matters is how you yourself think. So 1 is correct. The writer says a position may change, so 3 is wrong.

उत्तर: 2 博士後期課程1年の田中さん。2027年度中に国内の学会での発表が決まっている。2026年度は助成を受けていない。

Grant A is only for doctoral students, B is for students with a confirmed presentation, and A and B can be applied for together. Lin is a master's student, Sato received A in 2026, and Maria is on leave. So Tanaka (2) is correct.

उत्तर: 3 研究倫理研修を受講して修了証を申請書に添付し、研究計画書とともに窓口に持参し、推薦書は指導教員に直接提出してもらう。

Ali must take the research ethics training before applying, attach the certificate to the application form, and bring the documents to the office. The recommendation letter must be sent directly by the supervisor. So 3 is correct. Email is not accepted (1), Ali cannot bring the letter himself (2), and the training must come first (4).
