沖縄県高校入試 国語 - Independent practice · Understand the traps and how to avoid them.
Choosing characters from pronunciation alone
Homophones differ in meaning even when their sounds match.
What to do instead
Read the complete sentence and identify the intended action or idea.
Confusing passive and causative forms
Being affected by an action differs from causing someone to perform it.
What to do instead
Name the actor, affected person and intended relation.
Making a qualified claim absolute
A text may describe one benefit without promising every possible benefit.
What to do instead
Preserve limiting words when paraphrasing.
Selecting the nearest noun automatically as a referent
A demonstrative can refer to an entire preceding idea.
What to do instead
Substitute the candidate and test the predicate.
Inventing a backstory to explain a gesture
Several possible stories can fit an isolated action.
What to do instead
Choose the modest inference best supported by the whole scene.
Applying a modern meaning to a classical word
Spelling similarity does not guarantee semantic identity.
What to do instead
Use the historical sense appropriate to the passage.
Mentioning a required word without developing the idea
A word alone does not establish a reason or an experience.
What to do instead
Connect the word naturally to the claim and supporting example.
Checking only spelling after drafting
A polished sentence can still omit a required condition.
What to do instead
Compare every condition with the actual response before final proofreading.
