TOPIK Practice – TOPIK I 어휘 [어휘] 1–5 (3/6/2026) – jazz vs wizards

정답: B. 경기

How to solve: The sentence is about '농구' (basketball). Among the given choices, '경기' (game/match) is the most natural word to describe a basketball event. Therefore, '경기' is the correct answer.

A — '음식' means food, which is irrelevant to a basketball event.

B — '경기' means game or match, which fits perfectly with '농구' (basketball).

C — '음악' means music, which is not the main topic of a basketball event.

D — '숙제' means homework, which is completely irrelevant to a basketball event.

정답: C. 팀

How to solve: Jazz and Wizards are names of professional basketball groups. In sports, these groups are referred to as '팀' (teams). Thus, '팀' is the correct word to complete the sentence.

A — '학교' means school, which is incorrect as Jazz and Wizards are not schools.

B — '회사' means company, which is incorrect as they are sports organizations, not typical companies.

C — '팀' means team, which is the correct term for sports groups like Jazz and Wizards.

D — '가족' means family, which is unrelated to professional sports groups.

정답: B. 선수

How to solve: The phrase '코트 위에서' (on the court) strongly suggests that the people being referred to are '선수' (players), who perform during a game. Therefore, '선수' is the most appropriate word.

A — '책' means book, which does not make sense in the context of a basketball court.

B — '선수' means player, which is correct as players are the ones who play on a basketball court.

C — '그림' means picture or painting, which is irrelevant to actions on a sports court.

D — '의자' means chair, which does not fit the context of actively performing on a court.

정답: A. 승리

How to solve: The sentence states that people '예상했습니다' (expected) Jazz to '이 ______를 할 것이다' (do this ______). When a team wins, it achieves '승리' (victory). The verb '이기다' (to win) directly relates to '승리'.

A — '승리' means victory, which is what a team achieves when it wins, fitting the context perfectly.

B — '슬픔' means sadness, which is unrelated to a team's expected outcome in a game.

C — '실패' means failure, which is the opposite of winning and therefore incorrect.

D — '시작' means start or beginning, which doesn't fit the context of an expected game outcome.

정답: C. 응원했

How to solve: The sentence describes what '팬들' (fans) do for '자신의 팀을' (their team) '경기 내내' (throughout the game). Fans typically '응원하다' (cheer for/support) their teams during a match. Therefore, '응원했' (cheered for/supported) is the correct verb.

A — '청소했' means cleaned, which is not what fans do during a game.

B — '만들었' means made or created, which is irrelevant to fan behavior during a game.

C — '응원했' means cheered for or supported, which is exactly what fans do for their team during a game.

D — '공부했' means studied, which is unrelated to attending and watching a sports game.
