N1–N3: Let's answer ★ questions (Part 1)

ステップ１：助詞に注意してください (Watch the particles)

• の＋名詞
• の＋名詞修飾形＋名詞
• を＋動詞

ステップ２：文の前と後ろから解きましょう (Solve from the front and the back)

Working from the back is often easiest. What can come before 「なった」?

• い-形容詞（く）＋なった
• な-形容詞＋に＋なった
• 動詞（く）＋なった

Then work from the front: after 「失敗の＿＿」 you can usually only put a noun — giving 「失敗のことを〜」.

ステップ３：文を読む (Read the sentence)

Insert the remaining options and read again to check which order flows smoothly.

These questions mostly test your foundation (N4/N5 knowledge). Only one or two of five use N2 grammar — so review your N4 and N5 grammar again.
