[Practice Question]

 

その人が授業に来たのは一度(__)です。

*そのひとが じゅぎょうに きたのは いちど(__)です。

 

1 ところ

2 きり

3 だらけ

4 とおり

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Answer]

 

その人が授業に来たのは一度(2 きり)です。

That person came to class only once.

 

 

 

その人が授業に来たのは一度です。

= That person came to class once.

 

But here, the speaker wants to add one more feeling:

“They came once—and never came back.”

 

That’s exactly what 〜きり does!

 

きり

= “only ~” / “just that once (and never again)”

 

一度きり

= just one time, and it never happened again.

 

So きり is the answer.

 

 

✖ Other Choices:

ところ

→「〜たところ」can mean “just did ~,”

 

だらけ

= “full of ~”

 

とおり

= “just as ~”

 

 

I hope this explanation helps! 😊
