TOPIK Practice – TOPIK I 어휘 [vocabulary] 1–5 (2/12/2026) – double luge

정답: B. 썰매

How to solve: The question asks what kind of equipment is ridden in luge during winter. Luge is a winter sport where athletes ride a sled down an ice track.

A — 스키 (ski) is a different winter sport. Luge does not involve skis.

B — 썰매 (sled) is the correct equipment for luge, as athletes ride a sled down an ice track.

C — 자전거 (bicycle) is typically used on land, not for winter sports like luge.

D — 수영 (swimming) is a water sport, unrelated to luge.

정답: B. 두

How to solve: The prefix '더블-' (double-) in '더블루지' (double luge) specifically indicates the number of participants. 'Double' means two.

A — 한 (one) refers to a single person, which is for single luge, not double luge.

B — 두 (two) correctly represents 'double', indicating two people ride together.

C — 세 (three) is incorrect, as 'double' specifically means two.

D — 네 (four) is also incorrect, as 'double' means two.

정답: C. 타다

How to solve: The question asks what action luge athletes perform quickly on the ice track. Luge involves riding a sled. The verb '타다' means 'to ride'.

A — 달리다 (to run) is done on foot, not while on a sled.

B — 걷다 (to walk) is also on foot and generally slow, not fast as described.

C — 타다 (to ride) is the appropriate verb for riding a sled or other vehicles, fitting the context of luge.

D — 던지다 (to throw) is unrelated to the action of moving along a track in luge.

정답: C. 빠른

How to solve: Luge is well-known for its high speed. The blank requires an adjective that describes the speed enjoyed in this winter sport. '빠른' means 'fast'.

A — 느린 (slow) is the opposite of the characteristic speed of luge.

B — 작은 (small) describes size, not speed.

C — 빠른 (fast) correctly describes the characteristic high speed of luge.

D — 높은 (high) describes height, which is not directly related to the speed itself in this context, although high speed is achieved.

정답: C. 함께

How to solve: '더블루지' (double luge) involves two athletes competing. The blank needs a word that describes how these two athletes perform the competition, implying collaboration or joint action.

A — 혼자 (alone) contradicts the fact that it is 'double luge' with two athletes.

B — 따로 (separately) also contradicts the idea of a 'double' team working together.

C — 함께 (together) correctly describes how two partners collaborate and compete in double luge.

D — 옆에 (next to) describes a position, but '함께' (together) better expresses the unified action of the two athletes in a double luge team.
