Romaji : Kore wa totemo (taisetsu na) mondai desu.
Meanig : This is really an important matter.
１．たいせつな ２．いろいろな ３．じゅうぶな ４．にぎやかな
Answer : 1
The correct answer is in the first option. Since, taisetsu is a keiyoudoushi (形容動詞・けいようどうし) or a –na type adjective. So, there is a rule which must be obey to use adjective modifying a noun. In this question, we are using adjective to describe a noun. The noun which is being discussed in this question is mondai (問題・もんだい) which means matters, things, problems. Below is the pattern :
Kanji ：形容動詞 ＋ な ＋ 動詞
Hiragana ：けいようどうし ＋ な ＋ どうし
Romaji ：keiyoudoushi ＋ na ＋ doushi
Meaning ：-na type adjective ＋ na ＋ verb
Based on the question above, we describe that the problems, matters [mondai問題・もんだい] (noun) is very important [大切・たいせつ] (-na type adjective).

１．ちょうど ２．すこし ３．たぶん ４．だんだん
Answer : 3
The above question is about expressing uncertainty. We want to express uncertainly we can useだろう orでしょう grammar pattern. This type of sentence pattern is also called affirmative sentence. By stating this kind of sentence, we actually still uncertain or not sure about a situation or a condition and we are asking for an affirmation from someone else by stating the affirmative sentence.
The affirmative sentence can be divided into two types of pattern :
- Plain affirmative form (Using だろう)
- Polite affirmative form (Using でしょう)
Those kind of sentence can be used with たぶん which can translated as perhaps, maybe, might. It is used to emphasize the uncertainty.
The other option is a wrong answer. The first option choudo (ちょうど) means just, right, exactly is not appropriate with the uncertainty expression.
The second option sukoshi (すこし) means a little bit is not also expressing uncertainty. It is describing an exact description of a small amount.
The third option dandan (だんだん) is also not the right answer. Since, dandan is actually means gradually or a situation which is slowly changed and doesn’t relates with the uncertainty.

Not only using verb naru（なる）, but we also use kara (から) to express a reason in a sentence. It can be translated as because or since. Below is the pattern :
Kanji : 文I ＋から ＋ 文II
Hiragana : ぶんI ＋から ＋ ぶんII
