Sample Fukushima Entrance English Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Fukushima Entrance English exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Choose the word that best completes the sentence: 'My grandmother always tells us interesting ______ about her childhood in Aizu.'
A.stories
B.informations
C.advices
D.knowledges
Explanation: 'Stories' is a countable plural noun, so it fits after 'interesting' with no article. The other three choices are uncountable nouns in English and can never take a plural -s, so 'informations,' 'advices,' and 'knowledges' are not real English words.
2Choose the word that best completes the sentence: 'It took us three hours to climb to the ______ of Mt. Bandai.'
A.foot
B.bottom
C.top
D.side
Explanation: If the climb took three hours, the hikers reached the 'top' (the highest point) of the mountain. 'The top of Mt. Bandai' is the natural collocation for the summit. The other words describe the base or side, which would not take three hours of climbing to reach.
3Choose the phrase that best completes the sentence: 'Could you ______ the TV? I can't hear the phone.'
A.turn up
B.put off
C.look after
D.turn down
Explanation: Because the speaker cannot hear the phone, the TV is too loud, so it must be made quieter: 'turn down' means to lower the volume. 'Turn down the TV' is the correct phrasal verb here.
4Choose the word that best completes the sentence: 'May I ______ your eraser? I forgot mine at home.'
A.lend
B.borrow
C.rent
D.sell
Explanation: The speaker wants to receive and use the eraser temporarily, so 'borrow' (take and use something belonging to someone else) is correct: 'May I borrow your eraser?' 'Lend' is the same action seen from the owner's side: 'Please lend me your eraser.'
5Choose the phrase that best completes the sentence: 'The doctor advised him to ______ smoking, so he stopped buying cigarettes.'
A.give back
B.give away
C.give up
D.give in
Explanation: Because he stopped buying cigarettes, the doctor told him to quit: 'give up' means to stop doing a habit. 'Give up smoking' is the standard collocation. The other phrasal verbs have different meanings that do not fit the result clause.
6Choose the word that best completes the sentence: 'I want to ______ more about the culture of the Tohoku region, so I joined the local history club.'
A.learn
B.teach
C.cost
D.hurry
Explanation: Joining a history club is a way to gain knowledge, so 'learn' is correct: 'learn more about the culture.' 'Learn about' is the standard collocation for gaining knowledge on a subject.
7Choose the best response. A: 'Shall we go cycling along Lake Inawashiro this weekend?' B: 'That ______ great! What time shall we meet?'
A.looks
B.tastes
C.smells
D.sounds
Explanation: When reacting to a proposal or idea, English uses 'That sounds great!' — the plan 'sounds' good to the ear, meaning it seems like a good idea. The other sense verbs describe physical perception and cannot describe a plan.
8Choose the word that best completes the sentence: 'Yuki is good at ______ photos. Her picture of the Hanamiyama flowers won a prize.'
A.making
B.taking
C.doing
D.getting
Explanation: The fixed English collocation is 'take photos' (or 'take pictures'), so 'taking' is correct. Japanese 'shashin o toru' matches English 'take,' not 'make.'
9Choose the word that best completes the sentence: 'The city library is ______ from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day except Monday.'
A.opened
B.opening
C.open
D.opens
Explanation: Here 'open' is an adjective meaning 'available for use,' and the pattern 'is open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.' describes the library's state during those hours. The verb forms do not fit because the sentence describes a continuing state, not an action happening at a moment.
10Choose the word that best completes the sentence: 'I couldn't catch what the announcer said because he spoke too ______.'
A.fast
B.fastly
C.soon
D.lately
Explanation: 'Fast' works as both an adjective and an adverb, so 'spoke too fast' is correct English. The sentence explains that the speed of the speech made it impossible to catch the words.

About the Fukushima Entrance English Exam

The Fukushima Public High School Entrance Examination English paper is set by the Fukushima Prefectural Board of Education. The single 50-minute, 50-point paper, administered on March 4, 2026 in the Reiwa 8 early selection (zenki senbatsu), includes a broadcast listening section and written constructed-response questions on the MEXT junior-high Course of Study. Admission combines the five-subject scores (250 points) with the junior-high report (chousasho). This page provides 100 original English-language practice questions with detailed explanations as a study adaptation — not an official translation or a simulation of the official format.

Assessment

The real Fukushima English examination is a 50-minute paper scored out of 50 points (250 total across five subjects); in the Reiwa 8 (2026) general selection it was sat on March 4, 2026, with interviews on March 4-6 and results announced via the web system on March 16 (viewable until March 24). It is set prefecture-wide on the MEXT junior-high Course of Study, includes a broadcast listening section, and is answered in writing. Within it, the general-selection track (ippan senbatsu) combines the academic test with the chousasho, weighted equally in principle, with schools permitted to weight specific subjects; attendance records are not used for Reiwa 8. A late selection at under-filled schools (application March 17-18, interview March 24, results March 25) uses only the chousasho, an interview, and a short essay with no academic test. This local bank is an English-language MCQ study adaptation providing 100 original practice items.

Fukushima Entrance English Study Tips from Top Performers

1Train yourself to catch corrected information ('not 8:30, but 9:00') and final agreements in dialogues, because the broadcast listening section rewards careful one-pass listening.
2Review relative pronouns, passive voice, and indirect-question word order ('Do you know where the station is?'), which are frequent junior-high test points.
3Because the official paper is written constructed-response, supplement this MCQ bank with regular short free-writing and word-order practice in English.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the official Fukushima English exam include listening?

Yes. The 50-minute English paper includes a broadcast listening section administered prefecture-wide. This bank cannot reproduce the audio; its listening items are transcript-based study adaptations that train the same comprehension strategies, such as catching corrected times and final agreements.

Are these questions official past exam problems?

No. The Fukushima Prefectural Board of Education does not publish the exam as a multiple-choice set. This bank is an original English-language MCQ study adaptation aligned to the MEXT junior-high Course of Study; it also cannot replace the official paper's written constructed-response tasks, so keep practicing free writing separately.

How long is the English paper and what is the maximum score?

The English paper is a single 50-minute exam scored out of 50 points, administered on March 4, 2026 in the Reiwa 8 early selection (zenki senbatsu). The five subjects total 250 points, and admission combines these scores with the junior-high report (chousasho), weighted equally in principle, though schools may apply weighted scoring to specific subjects.

What is the Reiwa 8 (2026) application and results schedule?

Applications were accepted February 2-6, 2026 through the newly introduced WEB application system. The academic examination was held on March 4, 2026, interviews on March 4-6, and results were announced via the web system on March 16, 2026, viewable until March 24. A late selection at under-filled schools uses only the chousasho, an interview, and a short essay (application March 17-18, interview March 24, results March 25), with no academic test.

How are the academic test and the chousasho weighted?

In the general (ippan) selection, the academic examination and the chousasho are weighted equally in principle, and schools may apply weighted scoring (keisha haiten) to specific subjects. For Reiwa 8, attendance records are not used as selection material. The distinctive selection (tokushoku senbatsu) relies instead on interviews and self-statements. Both tracks sit within the early selection, and applicants in both take the same five-subject academic examination.

Do these details apply to the next (Reiwa 9 / 2027) entrance examination?

The figures on this page describe the Reiwa 8 cycle, whose academic examination was sat on March 4, 2026. The Fukushima Prefectural Board of Education published its Reiwa 9 (2027 entry) school-by-school selection-method list on July 14, 2026 and has scheduled the full Reiwa 9 implementation guidelines for early October 2026. The five-subject, 50-minute, 50-point structure has been stable across recent cycles, but confirm the Reiwa 9 dates and rules on the board's own page before relying on them.
