The Hopeful Start Workshop will be held on January 10th at the Green Hill Community Center. This event ①helps students set clear and realistic goals for the new year. Participants will learn simple methods for ②writing goals that are specific and easy to measure. Each participant will receive a goal-planning notebook ③to use throughout the year. The workshop is open to all middle and high school students, and no experience ④are required. Students can register online through the center's website or by ⑤calling the front desk before January 8th.

문제 2

Dear members of the Debate Club, I am writing to let you know that our regular meeting time ①has been changed. We usually meet in Room 304 every Wednesday after school, but the room will be used for sports day practice next week. Instead, our meeting will be held in the library on Thursday at the same time. Please bring the debate topic ②that you prepared last week, since we will practice our arguments together. If you cannot attend the new meeting time, please reply to this email by Tuesday evening. We also need two volunteers ③to arrange the chairs and tables before the meeting begins. Mr. Park, our club advisor, will join us this time ④to give feedback on our speaking skills. Thank you for your understanding, and I look forward to ⑤see everyone on Thursday.

문제 3

Seatbelts are so woven into the experience of riding in a car that many passengers buckle them without thinking, yet a surprising number of teenagers still skip them for short trips, ①assuming that a five-minute drive to a friend's house does not carry much risk. Traffic safety data tell a different story: most fatal crashes occur within a few kilometers of home, on roads drivers know so well that they ②let their guard down. In a collision, a body ③traveling at a moderate speed continues moving forward at that same speed until something stops it. A seatbelt spreads the force of a sudden stop across the stronger parts of the body, such as the hips and chest, instead of ④concentrating it on the head and neck. Despite decades of public awareness campaigns, seatbelt use for backseat passengers remains lower than for those ⑤sat in the front.

문제 4

Jihun made a resolution ①to study English for two hours every day. For the first three days, he studied exactly as planned and ②felt proud of himself. However, on the fourth day, he skipped his study time because he was too exhausted, and within a week, his resolution had disappeared. ③Feeling disappointed, Jihun talked to his older sister about it, and she suggested that he ④try a smaller, more realistic goal instead of a large one. Following her advice, he changed his plan to studying English for only twenty minutes each night, and this small goal felt less overwhelming, so he managed ⑤keeping it every day for a month.

문제 5

Willpower is like a muscle that becomes ①tired after being used too much, so people often run out of self-control by the end of a busy day. Many resolutions are unrealistic from the beginning, since people set goals that are far too ②easy to reach in a short time, and when a goal feels impossible, people quickly ③lose motivation and stop trying. Most resolutions do not offer any ④immediate reward, so people find it hard to stay motivated without seeing fast results. Understanding these reasons can help people design goals that are more ⑤realistic and rewarding.

문제 6

A growing number of teenagers are joining book clubs that exist only on their phones. (A) However, a few teachers worry that constant notifications from a reading app can pull attention away from the book itself, since users may spend more time chatting about the story than actually reading it. Despite this concern, many students report that the sense of community keeps them reading books they would have quit halfway through if they had been reading completely alone. (B) These apps let users track how many pages they read each day, write short reviews, and join group chats about a chosen book. Some students say the apps make reading feel less lonely, because they can share their honest reactions the moment they finish a chapter instead of waiting for a weekly meeting. (C) The apps also use gentle reminders and reading streaks to keep members motivated, turning a private habit into a small social game.

문제 7

My grandmother keeps a wooden cabinet filled with tiny furniture, each piece no larger than a fingernail, that she has been building for over a decade as a miniature hobby. (A) Talking with her while she worked, though, I learned that the real challenge lies in imagining an entire, believable world at a scale the eye can barely process. (B) She once spent three weekends carving a single tiny bookshelf, only to leave two of its shelves deliberately empty, explaining that a completely full room would look staged rather than lived-in. (C) When I first saw the cabinet, I assumed the appeal was simply how impressively small and precise the pieces looked.

문제 8

None of this, she reminded us, has anything to do with the words a character actually says. Before a single line of dialogue is written for many animated shows, a character designer has already spent weeks deciding how that character should look, move, and be recognized at a glance. ( ① ) A visiting illustrator who spoke at our school explained that a truly successful design should be identifiable even as a plain black silhouette, since audiences often notice a character's outline before they notice any facial detail. ( ② ) She showed us early sketches of a now-famous cartoon hero, in which the same personality had been tested through dozens of different body shapes, from short and round to tall and angular, before the final version was chosen. ( ③ ) Small choices, she added, carry surprising weight: rounded shapes tend to feel friendly and safe, while sharp angles suggest danger or power, even to viewers who have never studied design. ( ④ ) I left the talk realizing that a character's personality is communicated through its silhouette long before it ever speaks a single word. ( ⑤ )

문제 9

No one in the room could quite agree on how serious that concern actually was. When an image-generating program produced a strikingly detailed painting in the exact style of a well-known illustrator within seconds, my art club spent an entire meeting arguing about what it actually meant for artists. ( ① ) Some members felt excited, imagining the software as a helpful tool that could speed up brainstorming or generate quick backgrounds for their comics. ( ② ) Others worried that the program had been trained on thousands of real illustrations scraped from the internet without the original artists' permission, meaning the tool's impressive results were quietly built on other people's uncredited labor. ( ③ ) A few pointed out that the final image, however skillful it looked, reflected no personal memory, struggle, or intention, only patterns learned from existing pictures. ( ④ ) The debate never reached a clear conclusion, but it made me realize that questions about creativity now involve not just how a picture looks, but where it actually came from and who deserves credit for it. ( ⑤ )

문제 10

None of these habits require special skill, only the discipline to follow them every single time. Every summer, lifeguards repeat the same warnings to swimmers, yet drowning remains one of the most common causes of accidental death among teenagers. ( ① ) Part of the problem is that danger in water rarely looks dramatic; a swimmer struggling to stay afloat often makes little noise and shows no obvious signs of panic, which means bystanders may not realize help is needed until it is too late. ( ② ) Rip currents present a particularly deceptive threat, since the water's surface can appear calm even while a powerful current pulls a swimmer steadily away from shore. ( ③ ) Experts advise that anyone caught in such a current should swim parallel to the beach rather than struggling directly against it, since fighting the current head-on quickly exhausts even a strong swimmer. ( ④ ) Simple habits, such as swimming near a lifeguard station and never entering the water alone, dramatically lower the risk of a minor mistake turning into a fatal one. ( ⑤ )
