Features: In recent years, the question formats of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) listening section have evolved from simple to complex, from general to detailed, and from broad listening to in-depth comprehension. The number of words beyond the test standards, especially those with repetition, has increased. Questions requiring comprehension of detailed information in statements have also become more frequent. The selection of questions has become more similar, the differentiation of diagrams has decreased, and the difficulty of judgment has increased. Currently, some candidates with about three to four years of professional Japanese study score only an average of 50 to 60 on the Level 1 listening exam, while general non-professional test-takers perform even worse. Clearly, the listening exam has become a major challenge for candidates. This series is not an academic monograph on Japanese grammar but a set of targeted grammar teaching materials for the Japanese Language Proficiency Test. It compiles the authors' teaching insights from daily instruction, providing accurate and detailed explanations of frequently occurring grammatical phenomena in the test, along with example sentences. The purpose of this series is to help candidates systematically master the necessary grammatical phenomena, sentence patterns, and vocabulary for the exam level through explanations and distinctions of grammatical phenomena in questions at various levels, enabling them to achieve this in a relatively short time.
