정답: B. 우유

How to solve: The sentence describes eating bread for breakfast. We need a common beverage that pairs well with bread for breakfast. Milk (우유) is a suitable choice.

A — 물 (water) is a drink, but less specifically paired with bread for breakfast than milk.

B — 우유 (milk) is a common beverage to have with bread for breakfast, making it the most appropriate choice.

C — 책 (book) is an object for reading, not food or drink.

D — 가방 (bag) is an object for carrying things, not food or drink.

정답: B. 먹다

How to solve: The first part of the sentence indicates hunger ('배고파요', I'm hungry). Therefore, the desire would be to 'eat' rice.

A — 자다 (to sleep) is unrelated to hunger and eating.

B — 먹다 (to eat) correctly describes the action one wants to do with rice when hungry.

C — 읽다 (to read) is unrelated to food consumption.

D — 공부하다 (to study) is unrelated to food consumption.

정답: C. 맛있다

How to solve: The sentence is about Kimchi Jjigae, a food dish. When describing food, the most common attribute to discuss is its taste. '맛있다' means delicious.

A — 예쁘다 (to be pretty) describes appearance, not taste.

B — 작다 (to be small) describes size, not taste.

C — 맛있다 (to be delicious) is the most appropriate adjective to describe the taste of food.

D — 비싸다 (to be expensive) describes price, not taste.

정답: C. 식당

How to solve: The sentence states it's lunchtime and asks where to go to eat a meal. A restaurant (식당) is the most suitable and common place for eating outside one's home.

A — 학교 (school) is a place for learning. While one might eat lunch at school, '식당' is more general for 'going out to eat'.

B — 병원 (hospital) is for medical treatment, not primarily for eating meals.

C — 식당 (restaurant) is a place specifically designed for eating meals, making it the correct answer.

D — 회사 (company/office) is a place for work, not typically where one 'goes to eat rice' as a primary function.

정답: C. 마시다

How to solve: The sentence describes an action performed with coffee every morning. The most common action related to consuming coffee is 'to drink' it.

A — 보다 (to see/watch) is unrelated to coffee consumption.

B — 만들다 (to make) is plausible (to make coffee), but '마시다' (to drink) is the direct action of consuming it, which is the most common and simple action with '커피를'.

C — 마시다 (to drink) is the direct verb for consuming coffee, fitting the context perfectly.

D — 듣다 (to listen) is unrelated to coffee consumption.
