TOPIK Practice – TOPIK I 어휘 [vocabulary] 1–5 (11/3/2026) – intel stock price

정답: B. 주가

How to solve: The sentence indicates that something 'went up' (올랐습니다). Among the choices, '주가' (stock price) is the most appropriate word to describe something that rises in the context of Intel and stock market.

A — 회사 (company) is a noun, but '회사가 올랐습니다' does not make natural sense in this context. A company's value might rise, but '회사' itself rising is awkward.

B — 주가 (stock price) is the correct answer. Stock prices often rise or fall.

C — 제품 (product) can't 'go up' in price in this context without a specific qualifier. '제품 가격' could, but '제품' alone is not suitable.

D — 시간 (time) does not 'go up' in this manner.

정답: B. 상승

How to solve: The question asks for a word that describes the movement of Intel's stock price. Since '많이' (a lot) is used, indicating a significant change, '상승' (rise) fits the context of stock price movement well, implying a significant increase.

A — 하락 (fall, decrease) is the opposite of a rise. While possible for stock prices, if the context is positive as implied by a general vocabulary question, this is incorrect.

B — 상승 (rise, increase) is the correct answer. Stock prices commonly '상승하다' (rise).

C — 변동 (fluctuation, change) describes general movement, but '많이 변동했습니다' implies a lot of fluctuation rather than a specific directional change like a rise.

D — 유지 (maintain) means to keep something at the same level, which contradicts '많이' (a lot) implying a significant change.

정답: C. 투자

How to solve: The sentence is about 'Intel stock' (인텔 주식). When dealing with stocks, the common action taken is 'investment'. Therefore, '투자' (investment) is the most suitable word to complete the sentence.

A — 식사 (meal) is unrelated to stocks.

B — 공부 (study) is possible to study stocks, but '주식에 공부를 했습니다' is not a natural expression. '주식을 공부했습니다' would be more natural.

C — 투자 (investment) is the correct answer. '주식에 투자를 하다' is a very common and natural expression.

D — 운동 (exercise) is unrelated to stocks.

정답: C. 기업

How to solve: Intel is known as a company. The question asks what Intel is, describing it as 'world-famous'. Among the choices, '기업' (enterprise/company) accurately describes Intel.

A — 사람 (person) is incorrect; Intel is an organization.

B — 동물 (animal) is clearly incorrect.

C — 기업 (enterprise, company) is the correct answer. Intel is a major technology company.

D — 식물 (plant) is clearly incorrect.

정답: B. 시장

How to solve: The sentence states that Intel's stock price fluctuates depending on 'situation'. Stock prices are primarily influenced by 'market' conditions. So, '시장' (market) is the most appropriate word to fill in the blank.

A — 날씨 (weather) does not directly influence stock prices in a general context.

B — 시장 (market) is the correct answer. Stock prices are highly sensitive to market conditions.

C — 학교 (school) is unrelated to stock price fluctuations.

D — 공원 (park) is unrelated to stock price fluctuations.
