정답: A. 땄습니다

How to solve: The sentence talks about playing games at a casino and refers to the outcome with money. The verb that means 'to win money' is needed to complete the sentence naturally.

A — '땄습니다' comes from '따다', meaning 'to win money (in gambling/games)'. This fits the context of winning money by playing games at a casino.

B — '잃었습니다' comes from '잃다', meaning 'to lose (money)'. This is the opposite of winning and does not fit the common positive outcome implied when playing to win.

C — '봤습니다' comes from '보다', meaning 'to see'. It does not fit the context of an action performed with money as a result of playing a game.

D — '갔습니다' comes from '가다', meaning 'to go'. This verb is grammatically incorrect and semantically unrelated to the outcome of playing with money.

정답: B. 게임

How to solve: The sentence describes what can be found in a casino. Consider the primary activities and offerings of a casino.

정답: C. 잃었습니다

How to solve: The sentence describes an action related to 'many money' at a casino, implying a common, often negative, outcome. The verb for 'losing money' fits best.

A — '땄습니다' comes from '따다', meaning 'to win money'. This is the opposite of losing and would generally imply a positive outcome.

B — '샀습니다' comes from '사다', meaning 'to buy'. One does not 'buy money' in this context at a casino.

A — '학생' means 'student'. Students are generally not the primary or most frequent visitors to casinos due to age restrictions and financial reasons.

B — '선생님' means 'teacher'. While anyone can visit, teachers are not a specific group known for frequently visiting casinos as part of their profession or leisure more than others.

C — '관광객' means 'tourist'. Casinos are often major attractions for tourists visiting a city or country, making this the most fitting answer.

D — '의사' means 'doctor'. Similar to teachers, doctors are not a specific demographic typically associated with frequent casino visits.

정답: C. 운

How to solve: The sentence states that for gambling, something must be 'good' to win. Consider the primary factor that determines success in games of chance.

A — '건강' means 'health'. While good health is generally desirable, it does not directly influence winning or losing in gambling.

B — '날씨' means 'weather'. Weather has no relevance to the outcome of gambling.

C — '운' means 'luck'. Gambling (도박) is heavily dependent on chance, so '운이 좋아야' (one must have good luck) is the most appropriate phrase to describe how to win.
