TOPIK Practice – TOPIK I 어휘 [어휘] 1–5 (3/23/2026) – katie britt

정답: D. 정치가

How to solve: The question asks for a noun that describes Katie Britt's profession in the context of being an American. Katie Britt is known as a politician. Therefore, '정치가' (politician) is the most appropriate word.

A — '학생' means student. Katie Britt is not primarily known as a student.

B — '의사' means doctor. Katie Britt is not a doctor.

C — '가수' means singer. Katie Britt is not a singer.

D — '정치가' means politician. This correctly describes Katie Britt's profession.

정답: B. 말합니다

How to solve: The sentence describes an action Katie Britt takes in front of people. As a public figure, especially a politician, she frequently speaks to people. '말합니다' (speaks) fits this context best.

A — '먹습니다' means eats. While one might eat in front of people, it's not a primary action associated with her public role in this general context.

B — '말합니다' means speaks. This is a very common action for a politician who interacts with the public.

C — '잡니다' means sleeps. This is inappropriate for an action taken in front of people in a public context.

D — '웃습니다' means laughs/smiles. While she might smile, 'speaks' is a more direct and significant action in a public setting for a politician.

정답: B. 일

How to solve: The sentence states 'She did an important ____'. We need a noun that can be 'done' and is commonly described as 'important' in the context of a person's achievements or tasks. '일' (work/task) is the most fitting choice.

A — '책' means book. While one can write an important book, 'doing' a book is not a natural expression in this context.

B — '일' means work or task. '중요한 일' (important work/task) is a very natural and common phrase.

C — '연필' means pencil. This is an object and does not fit the verb '했습니다' (did) in this sense.

D — '시계' means watch/clock. This is an object and does not fit the verb '했습니다' (did) in this sense.
