정답: B. 치마

How to solve: The question asks you to choose the word that is related to the word in the example box, '옷' (ot), which means 'clothes'. You need to find a word that is a type of clothing.

A — '학교' (hakgyo) means 'school'. This is a place, not a piece of clothing.

B — '치마' (chima) means 'skirt'. A skirt is a type of clothing, so this is the correct answer.

C — '의자' (uija) means 'chair'. This is a piece of furniture, not clothing.

D — '과일' (gwail) means 'fruit'. This is a type of food, not clothing.

정답: C. 입어요

How to solve: The sentence translates to 'The weather is cold, so I ( ) thick clothes.' The blank requires a verb that means 'to wear'. The verb for wearing clothes is '입다' (ipda). Its present tense form is '입어요' (ibeoyo).

A — '먹어요' (meogeoyo) means 'to eat'. You do not eat clothes.

B — '읽어요' (ilgeoyo) means 'to read'. You do not read clothes.

C — '입어요' (ibeoyo) means 'to wear'. This is the correct verb to use with '옷' (clothes).

D — '자요' (jayo) means 'to sleep'. While one wears clothes to sleep, the action of putting on clothes fits the context better.

정답: A. 예쁜

How to solve: The sentence is '가게에서 ( ) 모자를 샀어요' (gage-eseo ( ) mojareul sasseoyo), which means 'I bought a(n) ( ) hat at the store.' The blank needs an adjective that can describe a '모자' (moja), meaning 'hat'.

A — '예쁜' (yeppeun) means 'pretty'. This is a common adjective used to describe clothes or accessories like hats. This is the correct answer.

B — '맛있는' (masinneun) means 'delicious'. This adjective is used for food, not hats.

C — '재미있는' (jaemiinneun) means 'fun' or 'interesting'. This is typically used for things like books, movies, or activities.

D — '조용한' (joyonghan) means 'quiet'. This is used to describe a place or a person's personality.

정답: A. 작은

How to solve: The first sentence says '이 바지는 너무 큽니다' (i bajineun neomu keumnida), meaning 'These pants are too big.' The second sentence asks for '( ) pants'. The most logical choice is the opposite of 'big' (크다). The opposite is 'small' (작다), and its adjective form is '작은' (jageun).

A — '작은' (jageun) means 'small'. This is the direct opposite of '큰' (keun – big) and fits the context. This is the correct answer.

B — '많은' (maneun) means 'many' or 'a lot of'. This describes quantity, not size.

C — '비싼' (bissan) means 'expensive'. This describes price, not size.

D — '좋은' (joeun) means 'good'. While possible, 'small' is the direct contrast needed here.

정답: C. 파란

How to solve: The sentence is '저는 ( )색 옷을 좋아합니다' (jeoneun ( )saek oseul joahamnida), meaning 'I like ( ) colored clothes.' The blank needs a word that represents a color to complete the phrase '( )색' (color).

A — '책' (chaek) means 'book'. '책색' is not a word.

B — '빵' (ppang) means 'bread'. '빵색' is not a standard color term.

C — '파란' (paran) is the adjective form of '파랗다' (parata), which means 'blue'. '파란색' (paransaek) means 'the color blue'. This fits perfectly. This is the correct answer.

D — '의자' (uija) means 'chair'. '의자색' is not a word.
