TOPIK Practice – TOPIK I 어휘 [vocabulary] 1–5 (10/19/2026) – evan stewart

정답: A. 가수

How to solve: The sentence states 'Evan Stewart is a famous ______'. The blank requires a noun that can describe a profession or role. Among the choices, '가수' (singer) fits naturally to describe a 'famous' person. The other choices are also professions but might not be the most common association with being 'famous' without further context, though '의사' could be famous in certain fields.

A — 가수 (singer) fits well in the context of being 'famous'.

B — 의사 (doctor) is a profession, but 'famous doctor' might require more specific context, whereas 'famous singer' is a common phrase.

C — 학생 (student) does not typically follow 'famous' in the same way as a profession unless referring to a child prodigy or a student activist.

D — 요리사 (chef) is a profession, and 'famous chef' is also possible, but '가수' is often a more general answer for a 'famous person' in TOPIK I style questions.

정답: C. 운동합니다

How to solve: The sentence 'Evan Stewart every morning early ______.' requires a verb that describes a common morning activity. '일찍' (early) suggests an active behavior. Among the options, '운동합니다' (exercises) is a very common activity to do early in the morning.

A — 잠니다 (sleeps) is contrary to '일찍' (early). One doesn't 'sleep early in the morning' if they are getting up early.

B — 공부합니다 (studies) is possible, but '운동합니다' is a more archetypal early morning activity in many contexts.

C — 운동합니다 (exercises) fits perfectly with '매일 아침 일찍' (every morning early) as a positive and common routine.

D — 먹습니다 (eats) would be '아침을 먹습니다' (eats breakfast) and usually implies after waking up, but '운동합니다' describes an earlier, more active routine that fits '일찍' well.

정답: A. 친절합니다

How to solve: The sentence 'Evan Stewart always to people ______.' requires an adjective that describes how he interacts with people. '사람들에게' (to people) indicates an interaction. '친절합니다' (is kind) is a positive adjective describing a good way to treat people.

A — 친절합니다 (is kind/friendly) directly describes a positive way of behaving 'to people'.

B — 바쁩니다 (is busy) describes one's state, not how one treats people directly. You can be busy *with* people, but not usually 'busy *to* people'.

C — 어렵습니다 (is difficult) describes a task or a person's character in a negative sense, not how one acts towards others.

D — 슬픕니다 (is sad) describes an emotion, not an interaction with others.

A — 독서 (reading) is a common hobby, but '여행' is often associated with '주말' (weekend) for leisure.

B — 청소 (cleaning) is a common household chore, but less likely to be described as something 'often done on weekends' as a hobby, unless specified.

C — 요리 (cooking) is a daily activity or hobby, but '여행' fits the 'weekend' context strongly for leisure.
