【解答・解説】
問1
正解:③ sense
解説:make sense=「意味をなす/筋が通る」
It doesn’t make sense.
(意味が分からない)
決まり文句なので sense 以外は不可。
問2
正解:④ spare
解説:have time to spare=「時間に余裕がある」
After quitting her job, she had plenty of free time to spare.
(仕事を辞めて、自由な時間がたくさんあった)
定型表現です。
問3
正解:④ realize
解説:realize a dream=「夢を実現する」
He dreamed of starting his own business, but didn’t know how to realize it.
act / play / become は文意に合いません。
問4
正解:② meets
解説:meet one’s needs=「必要を満たす」
The apartment perfectly meets our daily needs.
agree / reply / respond は前置詞が必要で、この形では不可。
問5
正解:④ short
解説:be short of ~=「~が不足している」
I’m a little short of cash right now.
(今ちょっとお金が足りない)
定型表現です。
問6
正解:④ used
解説:be used to ~=「~に慣れている」
I’ve become completely used to the noise.
familiar は with が必要なので不可。
問7
正解:④ Without
解説:Without ~, S would have …= 仮定法過去完了の言い換え
Without your advice, I wouldn’t have been able to make this decision.
(あなたの助言がなければ、この決断はできなかった)
問8
正解:④ In addition to
解説:in addition to ~=「~に加えて」
In addition to attending regular classes, students must submit a research report.
後ろは 動名詞 になります。
問9
正解:④ get rid of
解説:get rid of ~=「~を処分する」
He never uses it anymore, so why won’t he get rid of it?
get along / get away / get hold of は意味が合いません。
問10
正解:③ the other
解説:2つのうち残りの1つ → the other
There are two solutions. You know one, so let me explain the other.
another は「もう1つ(不特定)」なので不可。
