TOPIK Practice – TOPIK I 어휘 [Vocabulary] 1–5 (4/15/2026) – final jeopardy today

정답: C. 마지막

How to solve: The sentence talks about a question in a quiz. '마지막' (last/final) fits perfectly to describe the final question, especially in the context of 'final jeopardy'. '오늘' (today) describes time, '정답' (correct answer) is the outcome, and '문제' (problem/question) is redundant.

A — '오늘' (today) refers to time, not the order or type of question. '오늘 문제' (today's question) could work, but '마지막 문제' is a stronger fit for 'final jeopardy'.

B — '정답' (correct answer) is what you give *for* a question, not a modifier *of* a question in this context.

C — '마지막' (last/final) correctly describes the position or importance of the question, fitting 'final jeopardy'.

D — '문제' (problem/question) is already in the sentence after the blank, making it redundant.

정답: D. 문제

How to solve: The sentence describes a host giving something to participants. In the context of a quiz, a host gives questions. '문제' (question/problem) is the correct word for what a host poses.

A — '퀴즈' (quiz) refers to the entire game, not the individual items given by the host. '퀴즈를 냈다' is less common than '문제를 냈다'.

B — '정답' (correct answer) is what participants give, not what the host gives.

C — '마지막' (last/final) is an adjective; it cannot be used as a noun here to represent what the host gives.

D — '문제' (problem/question) is the direct object for '내다' (to give/pose) when talking about quizzes or tests.

정답: C. 정답

How to solve: The sentence states that a participant '맞혔습니다' (got right/answered correctly) something for a difficult final question. When you answer a question correctly, you get the 'correct answer', which is '정답'.

A — '퀴즈' (quiz) is the game itself, not what is correctly identified for a question.

B — '문제' (problem/question) is what is asked, not what is given correctly. You '정답을 맞히다' (get the correct answer) or '문제를 풀다' (solve a question).

C — '정답' (correct answer) is the perfect fit. '정답을 맞히다' means to get the correct answer.

D — '오늘' (today) refers to time and does not fit the grammatical structure or meaning here.

정답: D. 오늘

How to solve: The sentence describes a 'final quiz show' as exciting. The blank is at the beginning, indicating a temporal context for the show. '오늘' (today) specifies that it was *today's* final quiz show, directly relating to 'final jeopardy today'.

A — '정답' (correct answer) is a noun related to answers, not a temporal descriptor for a show.

B — '문제' (problem/question) is also a noun for a question, not a time word.

C — '마지막' (last/final) could describe the show if it was '마지막 퀴즈쇼' (the last quiz show ever), but with '최종' (final) already present, '오늘' makes better sense to specify *when* the show took place.

D — '오늘' (today) correctly indicates the day the quiz show took place, fitting 'today' in 'final jeopardy today'.

정답: C. 퀴즈

How to solve: The sentence expresses curiosity about who will win 'this ( )'. In the context of 'final jeopardy', the game itself is a 'quiz'. '퀴즈' (quiz) is the appropriate noun for the type of competition where one wins or loses.

A — '정답' (correct answer) is a part of the game, not the game itself. You don't 'win an answer'.

B — '문제' (problem/question) is a part of the game, not the game itself. You don't 'win a question'.

C — '퀴즈' (quiz) refers to the entire game or competition, making it suitable for 'who will win this quiz'.

D — '마지막' (last/final) is an adjective and cannot function as the noun for the game.
