TOPIK Practice – TOPIK I 어휘 [빈칸 채우기 (동사)] 1–5 (8/12/2026) – djia

정답: C. 일어 나요

How to solve: The sentence describes a daily routine in the morning. The blank requires a verb that fits 'at 7 AM every morning'. '일어나다' (to wake up) is the most natural verb to describe starting the day at a specific time in the morning.

A — '먹어요' (eat) – One usually eats breakfast after waking up, not at the exact moment of waking.

B — '자요' (sleep) – This means 'sleeps', which is contrary to waking up at 7 AM.

C — '일어 나요' (wake up) – This means 'wakes up' and perfectly fits the context of 'at 7 AM every morning'.

D — '가요' (go) – This means 'goes', which doesn't fit the context of starting the day at 7 AM.

정답: B. 영화

How to solve: The sentence states 'I watch ______ with my friend on the weekend.' The verb '보다' (to watch) is used. Among the given choices, '영화' (movie) is the most appropriate object to be watched, forming the common phrase '영화를 보다' (to watch a movie).

A — '책' (book) – One usually '읽다' (reads) a book, not '보다' (watches) it in this context.

B — '영화' (movie) – '영화를 보다' (to watch a movie) is a common and correct expression.

C — '밥' (rice/meal) – One '먹다' (eats) '밥', not '보다' (watches) it.

D — '운동' (exercise) – One '하다' (does) '운동', not '보다' (watches) it, unless watching others exercise. But for 'I do with my friend', '운동하다' is more appropriate.

정답: C. 가족

How to solve: The question asks to choose a word related to '집' (home/house). '가족' (family) lives in a home, making it the most directly related concept among the options.

A — '회사' (company/office) – This is a workplace, distinct from '집' (home).

B — '학교' (school) – This is a place for study, distinct from '집' (home).

C — '가족' (family) – Family members typically live together in a '집', making them closely related.

D — '식당' (restaurant) – This is a place to eat, distinct from '집' (home).

정답: A. 적다

How to solve: The question asks for the antonym of '많다' (to be many/a lot). The direct opposite of 'many/a lot' is 'few/little'.

A — '적다' (to be few/little) – This is the direct opposite of '많다'.

B — '크다' (to be big) – The opposite of '크다' is '작다'.

C — '작다' (to be small) – The opposite of '작다' is '크다'.

D — '좋다' (to be good) – The opposite of '좋다' is '나쁘다' (to be bad).

정답: A. 많아요

How to solve: The sentence is '저는 오늘 숙제가 ______.' (I have homework today that is ______ / I ______ homework today). The noun '숙제' (homework) is the subject of the predicate in the blank. The most common and natural expression to describe the quantity of homework is '숙제가 많다' (to have a lot of homework).

A — '많아요' (to be many/a lot) – '숙제가 많아요' means 'I have a lot of homework,' which is a very common and natural expression.

B — '작아요' (to be small) – While homework can be described as 'little,' '작다' (small) usually refers to physical size, not quantity in this context. '적다' would be more appropriate for 'little quantity'. However, '많다' is the most natural opposite for 'little' when talking about quantity.

C — '좋아요' (to be good) – '숙제가 좋아요' means 'homework is good,' which is grammatically possible but less common and doesn't fit the typical context of discussing homework load.

D — '먹어요' (eat) – This is a verb meaning 'eats,' which cannot be used with '숙제가' as the subject. You cannot 'eat' homework in this sense.
