TOPIK Practice – TOPIK I 어휘 [vocabulary] 1–5 (9/8/2026) – s.w.a.t. exiles

정답: B. 추방

How to solve: The sentence indicates that the members were '____' from the team and took on a new mission. 'Exile' implies being removed from a group. Among the choices, '추방' (exile/banishment) best fits this context.

A — 훈련 (training): This means practice or instruction and does not fit the context of being removed from a team.

B — 추방 (exile/banishment): This means to be expelled or driven out, which perfectly matches the idea of 'exiles' from a team.

C — 모집 (recruitment): This means to gather or enlist people, which is the opposite of being removed.

D — 합류 (joining): This means to join or merge with, which is also the opposite of being removed.

정답: C. 정예 요원

How to solve: The question asks for the word most closely related to '특수 부대' (special forces). Special forces are typically composed of highly skilled and elite members.

A — 일반 병사 (regular soldier): While related to military, '일반 병사' refers to a common soldier, not specifically a 'special force' member.

B — 민간인 (civilian): This refers to a person not in the military or police, which is the opposite of '특수 부대'.

C — 정예 요원 (elite agent/member): This accurately describes the highly trained and specialized individuals who make up a '특수 부대'.

D — 학생 (student): This is unrelated to the concept of '특수 부대'.

정답: C. 임무

How to solve: The sentence implies that something important needs to be 'successfully performed' or 'carried out.' In the context of special forces or 'SWAT exiles,' this points to a mission or a task.

A — 산책 (walk): This is a leisurely activity and does not fit the phrase 'successfully carried out' for something important in a military context.

B — 독서 (reading): Similar to '산책,' this is a personal activity and not typically 'performed successfully' as a critical task.

C — 임무 (mission/duty/task): This word perfectly fits the context of something important that needs to be successfully accomplished by a team or individual.

D — 요리 (cooking): This is a domestic activity and is irrelevant to the context.

정답: B. 생존

How to solve: The question asks for the term that describes 'living through a dangerous situation' or 'survival.'

A — 사망 (death): This is the opposite of surviving.

B — 생존 (survival): This word directly means 'to survive' or 'survival,' fitting the description.

C — 탈락 (elimination/dropping out): This refers to being removed from a group or competition, not necessarily living through a dangerous situation.

D — 포기 (giving up): This is the act of quitting or surrendering, not the state of enduring and living.

정답: B. 훈련

How to solve: The sentence states that something 'intense' was received 'for the next operation.' This implies preparation or practice for a military or special forces mission.

A — 휴식 (rest): This is the opposite of '강도 높은' (intense) and preparation for an operation.

B — 훈련 (training): This means practice or instruction, often intense, to prepare for a task or operation. It fits the context perfectly.

C — 여행 (travel): This is for leisure or movement and does not typically involve 'intense' preparation for an 'operation'.

D — 놀이 (play): This refers to games or recreation and is entirely unrelated to preparing for an 'operation'.
