日本に来て（3 以来）毎日日本語で日記を書いている。
Ever since I came to Japan, I’ve been writing in my diary in Japanese every day.
〜て以来
= ever since ~
It shows that something has continued from a past starting point up to now.
First, look at:
来て
→ te-form of 来る
Among the four choices, only 以来 can be used after the te-form.
You can choose the correct answer just by looking at the verb form.
日本に来て以来
= ever since I came to Japan
毎日日本語で日記を書いている
= write in my diary in Japanese every day
→ This is a habit that continues now.
So, the correct answer is 3 以来.
✖ Other choices:
1 以上(いじょう)
= now that ~ / since ~ (reason)
2 次第(しだい)
= as soon as ~ / depending on ~
4 一方(いっぽう)
= on the other hand / more and more ~
I hope this explanation helps! 😊
