TOPIK Practice – TOPIK I 어휘 [어휘] 1–5 (9/19/2025) – afghanistan vs sri lanka

정답: C. 경기

How to solve: The sentence is about a sports event between Afghanistan and Sri Lanka happening today. The word that means 'match' or 'game' is '경기'.

A — '공부' means 'study'. It does not fit in the context of a sports event.

B — '여행' means 'trip' or 'travel'. It is not related to a sports event.

C — '경기' means 'match' or 'game'. This word correctly completes the sentence.

D — '식사' means 'meal'. It is irrelevant to a sports event.

정답: A. 응원합니다

How to solve: The sentence describes an action someone does for a team while watching television. '응원합니다' means 'to cheer for', which is the most logical action in this context.

A — '응원합니다' means 'to cheer for'. This is a common activity when watching a sports team.

B — '질문합니다' means 'to ask a question'. You don't ask a question to a team through the TV.

C — '기다립니다' means 'to wait for'. While you might wait for a game to start, 'cheer for' is a more active and fitting verb for what you do *for* a team.

D — '도착합니다' means 'to arrive'. It doesn't make sense for a person to 'arrive' a team.

정답: D. 이겼습니다

How to solve: The second sentence explicitly states '아프가니스탄이 이겼습니다' (Afghanistan won). Therefore, the blank in the first sentence must be filled with the same verb, '이겼습니다' (won).

A — '만났습니다' means 'met'. While the teams do meet, the context is about the result of the game.

B — '가르쳤습니다' means 'taught'. This is not relevant to a sports match result.

C — '도왔습니다' means 'helped'. This doesn't describe the outcome of a competitive game.

D — '이겼습니다' means 'won'. This matches the information given in the second sentence.

정답: A. 선수

How to solve: The question asks for the name of a person who participates in a game ('경기'). The Korean word for 'athlete' or 'player' is '선수'.

A — '선수' means 'player' or 'athlete'. This is the correct term for someone participating in a game.

B — '의사' means 'doctor'. Doctors are not participants in a game.

C — '학생' means 'student'. While a student can be a player, 'player' is the specific term.

D — '요리사' means 'cook' or 'chef'. This is unrelated to sports.

정답: C. 재미있어서

How to solve: The second sentence says '그래서 사람들이 좋아합니다' (So, people like it). We need to find a reason why people would like a game. '재미있어서' (because it is fun/interesting) is the most logical reason.

A — '어려워서' means 'because it is difficult'. People don't necessarily like something just because it's difficult.

B — '조용해서' means 'because it is quiet'. Sports games are usually not quiet.

C — '재미있어서' means 'because it is fun/interesting'. This is a good reason why people would like a game.

D — '맛있어서' means 'because it is delicious'. This word is used for food, not for a game.
