영어 모의고사 (자동 편성)

Before a single line of dialogue is written for many animated shows, a character designer has already ①spending weeks deciding how that character should look, move, and be recognized at a glance. 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 ②notice a character's outline before they notice any facial detail. She showed us early sketches of a now-famous cartoon hero, in which the same personality had ③been tested through dozens of different body shapes, from short and round to tall and angular, before the final version was chosen. Small choices, she added, carry surprising weight: rounded shapes tend to feel friendly and safe, while sharp angles ④suggest danger or power, even to viewers who have never studied design. I left the talk realizing that a character's personality ⑤is communicated through its silhouette long before it ever speaks a single word.

When I joined the school broadcasting club two years ago, I only ①wanted to spend time with friends who shared my interests. Gradually, however, the club ②became something much more meaningful. I learned how to write short scripts, operate basic cameras, and ③editing simple video clips for school events. Our club also produced a short documentary about a local market, ④which taught me how much planning goes into even a five-minute video. What began as a casual after-school activity ⑤ended up shaping a clear direction for my future career.

More and more teenagers today dream of starting their own business someday. This growing interest is partly due to the internet, which makes it ①easy to reach customers without a physical store. Starting a small business also teaches skills that traditional classes rarely offer, such as ②managing money, marketing a product, and handling customer complaints. However, young entrepreneurs face real ③challenges too. Many lack enough money or experience to make their business grow quickly, and mistakes can feel ④encouraging at first. Still, most teen entrepreneurs say that failure taught them more than any success did, and schools now offer entrepreneurship clubs to support these ⑤beginners.

Attention, students and teachers! Our school is starting a new campaign called 'Bring Your Own Bag.' Starting next Monday, the school store will no longer offer free plastic bags to customers. Instead, we ①encourage everyone to bring a reusable shopping bag from home. Plastic bags, which are made from petroleum, take hundreds of years to break down in the environment. In contrast, a cloth bag can be used again and again for many years. Therefore, using a reusable bag is a simple habit that ②protects sea animals and ③increases pollution. For example, students who bring their own bags will receive a small sticker as a ④reward. However, students who forget their bags may still purchase a paper bag for a small fee. We hope every student will join this easy and meaningful campaign. Thank you for helping our school become ⑤greener.

Setting a goal is only the first step; keeping track of progress is just as important. Many people write down goals at the beginning of the year but never check how far they have come. Without regular records, ___________. Keeping a simple log, such as a weekly checklist or a short journal entry, lets a person see clear evidence of improvement over time.

Every summer, doctors warn about the danger of heatstroke, a serious condition in which ___________. This condition can be life-threatening if it is not treated quickly. To prevent heatstroke, drink plenty of water throughout the day, avoid outdoor activities during the hottest hours, and wear light, loose clothing.

The Greenfield Public Library will offer a variety of special programs for students during summer vacation. From July 20th to August 14th, students can join reading clubs, writing workshops, and science experiment classes. ___________. Interested students should sign up at the front desk or through the library's website before space runs out.

Yesterday, I visited my school's career counselor because I felt confused about my future. She listened carefully and then asked me a simple question: what activities make me lose track of time? I answered that designing posters for school events always felt exciting. She smiled and said that this kind of clue often reveals ___________, more than any test score can. She suggested that I try combining my two interests by exploring careers such as scientific illustration or product design.

A stairway accident, in short, often takes far less time to happen than it does to prevent. Stairs seem too ordinary to be dangerous, which is why many people treat them carelessly, texting, carrying an armful of books, or skipping two steps at a time. ( ① ) Emergency room records tell a different story: falls on stairways send more people to the hospital each year than almost any other household accident, and many of these falls happen not on unfamiliar staircases but on ones climbed hundreds of times before. ( ② ) Familiarity encourages a kind of autopilot mode, in which a person stops looking at each step and instead relies on memory of where the stairs should be. ( ③ ) This habit fails the moment something unexpected occurs, such as a missing step or a loose railing. ( ④ ) Safety officials recommend a few unglamorous habits: keep one hand free, use the handrail, and turn on the light before stepping onto a dark staircase. ( ⑤ )

It was, I realized, a lesson about storytelling disguised as a lesson about furniture. 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. ( ① ) When I first saw the cabinet, I assumed the appeal was simply how impressively small and precise the pieces looked. ( ② ) 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, deciding where a miniature family might set down a teacup or leave a chair pulled slightly away from the table. ( ③ ) She once spent three weekends carving a single tiny bookshelf, only to leave two of its shelves deliberately empty, ( ④ ) explaining that a completely full room would look staged rather than lived-in. ( ⑤ ) That small decision taught me that miniature craft is not primarily about precision, but about convincingly imagining an ordinary life small enough to fit inside a shoebox.
