TOPIK Practice – TOPIK I 어휘 [Vocabulary] 1–5 (8/6/2026) – kalshi

정답: B. 회사

How to solve: The sentence describes Kalshi as something 'very good'. Among the choices, '회사' (company) is the most appropriate noun to complete the sentence, suggesting Kalshi is a good company. The other options (person, school, food) do not fit the context of 'Kalshi' as an entity providing services.

A — '사람' (person) is incorrect. Kalshi is a platform/company, not a person.

B — '회사' (company) is correct. It makes sense for Kalshi, as a service provider, to be described as a good company.

C — '학교' (school) is incorrect. Kalshi is not an educational institution.

D — '음식' (food) is incorrect. Kalshi is not food.

정답: A. 만들고

How to solve: The sentence talks about Kalshi and a 'new service'. The most natural verb to describe what a company does with a new service is '만들다' (to make/create). The structure '만들고 있습니다' means 'is making/creating'.

A — '만들고' (making/creating) is correct. Companies make or create services.

B — '보고' (seeing/watching) is incorrect. A company doesn't 'see' a service in this context.

C — '먹고' (eating) is incorrect. Services cannot be eaten.

D — '자고' (sleeping) is incorrect. A company does not sleep a service.

정답: C. 좋다고

How to solve: The sentence means 'I think Kalshi's service is…'. Without further context, assuming a positive statement about a service is common. '좋다고' (that it is good) is the most generally positive and appropriate response.

A — '재미없다고' (that it is not fun/boring) is a negative opinion. While possible, '좋다' is more neutral and common for general endorsement.

B — '비싸다고' (that it is expensive) is a specific detail about price, not a general evaluation for a beginner vocabulary question without more context.

C — '좋다고' (that it is good) is correct. This is a common and appropriate positive evaluation for a service.

D — '어렵다고' (that it is difficult) is another specific negative evaluation that doesn't fit a general vocabulary context.

정답: B. 필요한

How to solve: The sentence structure '우리가 (…) 정보' means 'information that we (…)'. Companies typically provide information that is 'needed' or 'useful'. '필요한' (necessary/needed) fits this context best.

A — '필요 없는' (unnecessary) would mean the information is useless, which contradicts the general purpose of a service provider.

B — '필요한' (necessary/needed) is correct. Kalshi provides information that we need.

C — '많은' (many/much) refers to quantity, not quality or utility, and doesn't fit grammatically as '우리가 많은 정보' would mean 'information that we are many'. It needs to modify '정보' (information) in terms of its characteristic for us.

D — '작은' (small) refers to size, which is irrelevant for information utility in this context.

정답: C. 예측

How to solve: The sentence '미래에 대한 (…) 할 수 있어요' means 'can do (…) about the future'. Given that Kalshi is a prediction market, '예측' (prediction) is the most fitting word to complete the sentence, indicating that Kalshi helps with future predictions.

A — '식사' (meal) is incorrect. One does not 'do a meal about the future'.

B — '공부' (study) is incorrect. While one can study about the future, '예측' is more specific to Kalshi's core function.

C — '예측' (prediction) is correct. Kalshi is known for prediction markets, so 'making predictions about the future' fits perfectly.

D — '여행' (travel) is incorrect. One does not 'do travel about the future'.
