Konnichiwa, it’s Chika Sensei.
Today, I’m sharing a practice from my exclusive course.
This one’s for pre-advanced learners (JLPT N2)! Can you answer correctly?

[Answer]
彼はまじめで、一度（1 として）授業に遅れたことがない。
He is so diligent that he has never been late for class, not even once.
「〜として〜ない」 means “not at all” or “there is not even one.”
It shows that something has never happened, not even once, with strong certainty.
In this sentence, we want to emphasize this strongly:
“Not even once has he been late.”
That’s why “〜として〜ない” is the best choice.
〜として〜ない is almost always used with the number “1“, such as:
e.g.
一日(いちにち)として休(やす)んだことがない
I haven’t taken even one day off.
→ Zero days
一人(ひとり)として反対(はんたい)しなかった
Not even one person objected.
→ Zero people
[Other Choices]
きり = “only” / “just”
→ It means there was at least one, so this contradicts the meaning.
ながら = “although” / “while”
→ Not suitable here.
につけ = “whenever” / “every time”
→ Not a good fit here.
I hope this explanation helps! 😊
