정답: B. 운동해요

How to solve: The sentence describes an action performed in a park every morning. '운동해요' (to exercise) is the most appropriate verb to describe an activity in a park for health. '공부해요' means to study, '일해요' means to work, and '먹어요' means to eat; these are less likely activities to be done in a park every morning in this general context.

A — '공부해요' means 'to study'. While one can study in a park, '운동해요' is a more common and natural fit for 'every morning in the park'.

B — '운동해요' means 'to exercise'. Exercising in a park every morning is a very common and natural activity, making it the best fit for the blank.

C — '일해요' means 'to work'. People usually don't 'work' in a park every morning in a general sense.

D — '먹어요' means 'to eat'. While one might eat breakfast in a park, '운동해요' is a more general and fitting activity for 'every morning in the park'.

정답: B. 도서관

How to solve: The sentence states that the speaker reads books on weekends. The most suitable place among the choices for reading books is a library ('도서관'). '백화점' is a department store, '병원' is a hospital, and '은행' is a bank.

A — '백화점' means 'department store'. People usually shop, not read books, at a department store.

B — '도서관' means 'library'. A library is a primary place for reading books, making it the correct answer.

C — '병원' means 'hospital'. A hospital is a place for medical treatment, not for reading books as a leisure activity.

D — '은행' means 'bank'. A bank is for financial transactions, not for reading books.

정답: B. 추워서

How to solve: The sentence expresses a desire to drink warm coffee. People typically want to drink warm beverages when the weather is cold. Therefore, '추워서' (because it's cold) is the logical choice. '더워서' means because it's hot, '좋아서' means because it's good, and '나빠서' means because it's bad.

A — '더워서' means 'because it's hot'. If it's hot, one would typically want a cold drink, not warm coffee.

B — '추워서' means 'because it's cold'. When the weather is cold, people often desire warm drinks like coffee, making this the correct answer.

C — '좋아서' means 'because it's good'. Good weather doesn't specifically lead to a desire for warm coffee more than other drinks.

D — '나빠서' means 'because it's bad'. Bad weather (e.g., rainy) might make one want warm coffee, but 'cold' is a more direct and stronger reason for 'warm coffee' than just 'bad weather' in general. '추워서' is more precise.

정답: C. 이름

How to solve: The sentence states 'is Kim Minsu'. Kim Minsu is a person's name. Therefore, '이름' (name) is the correct word to fill the blank. '나이' is age, '직업' is occupation, and '주소' is address.

A — '나이' means 'age'. One would say '제 나이는 20살입니다' (My age is 20) not '김민수입니다'.

B — '직업' means 'occupation/job'. One would say '제 직업은 학생입니다' (My job is student) not '김민수입니다'.

C — '이름' means 'name'. '제 이름은 김민수입니다' (My name is Kim Minsu) is a grammatically correct and natural way to introduce one's name, making it the correct answer.

D — '주소' means 'address'. One would say '제 주소는 서울입니다' (My address is Seoul) not '김민수입니다'.

정답: B. 보았어요

How to solve: The sentence describes an action with a friend and a movie in the evening. The most common action one does with a movie is 'to watch' it. '보았어요' is the past tense of '보다' (to see/watch). '만들었어요' means made, '먹었어요' means ate, and '들었어요' means listened.

A — '만들었어요' means 'made'. One doesn't usually 'make' a movie with a friend in this context, but rather watches it.

B — '보았어요' means 'watched/saw'. Watching a movie with a friend in the evening is a very common activity, making this the correct answer.

C — '먹었어요' means 'ate'. One eats food, not a movie.

D — '들었어요' means 'listened'. While you listen to a movie's audio, the primary verb for experiencing a movie is 'watch' (보다).
