문제 1

One Saturday morning, Jiho carried a heavy bag of old clothes to the donation box near his apartment. He had grown taller over the winter, so many shirts no longer ①fit him. At first, he almost threw the clothes into the regular trash without thinking twice. However, his older sister reminded him that clean clothes could still ②help someone else. She explained that donating clothes was like ③give a plant a second chance to grow. For example, a jacket he ④had outgrown might keep another child warm this winter. Therefore, Jiho folded each shirt neatly and ⑤placed them gently inside the box. In contrast to his first careless idea, he now felt genuinely happy about his choice. Walking home, Jiho realized that small actions could create meaningful change for others.

문제 2

The science club at Hanul High School is running a project ①called "Grow Light." It tests how different colors of light affect plant growth. Each week, members place identical bean sprouts under red, blue, and white light and ②record their height. At first, many students expected the white light ③to produce the tallest plants. However, the results showed that plants under red light grew noticeably ④fast than the others. The club's advisor explained this by comparing light to food. Just as people need certain nutrients to grow strong, plants absorb certain colors of light more efficiently than others. To make the data reliable, students repeat each trial three times and calculate the average. They also keep a shared notebook, ⑤recording sunlight, watering time, and temperature.

문제 3

Minjun used to leave half of his lunch tray full of ①untouching rice and vegetables every day. Last spring, his class started a campaign ②called "Clean Plate Day" to reduce food waste. However, his teacher explained that leftover food thrown away every day ③adds up to a huge amount of waste. She compared uneaten food to money ④dropped carelessly on the street, which nobody bothers to pick up. He decided to take only what he could finish and ⑤to try new vegetables slowly.

문제 4

Every day, people throw away piles of ①used paper without thinking about where it goes. However, most of that paper does not have to end up in a landfill. Instead, it can travel to a recycling factory and become brand new paper again. First, workers collect old newspapers, boxes, and notebooks left in recycling bins. These papers are then soaked in water and turned into ②hard, mushy pulp. You can think of this process like breaking a cookie back into flour and water. For example, ink and small pieces of plastic are ③removed from the pulp during this stage. The ④clean pulp is pressed into thin sheets and dried in large machines. Therefore, a wrinkled old newspaper can be ⑤reborn as clean white paper. In contrast to throwing paper away, recycling it saves trees and reduces waste.

문제 5

Many students confuse the student council with school clubs. In fact, the two groups serve very different purposes. (A) Therefore, joining the council usually requires an election, whereas joining a club simply requires genuine interest. Some students eventually do both, using the council to build leadership skills and a club to develop a personal passion. (B) The student council is an official body that represents the whole school. It manages shared issues such as rules, events, and communication with teachers. For example, council members often organize the school festival and collect opinions from each class before making decisions. (C) A club, in contrast, is a small group formed around one shared interest, such as music or art. While the council must consider the needs of every student, a club can focus narrowly on what its own members enjoy.

문제 6

Sorting your trash correctly is one of the simplest habits that protect our environment. (A) For example, plastic bottles should be rinsed and have their caps removed before being thrown away. Paper soaked with food or oil, however, cannot be recycled and must go into general waste. (B) Likewise, mixing recyclables with ordinary trash makes the whole recycling process complicated. Many students believe that sorting trash takes too much time, but it actually requires only a few extra seconds. Therefore, learning these basic rules now helps you build a habit that benefits your entire community. (C) When you separate paper, plastic, glass, and cans, recycling centers can process each material more efficiently. Sorting garbage is similar to organizing a closet, where each type of clothing has its own shelf. If items are mixed together carelessly, finding what you need later becomes difficult.

문제 7

주어진 문장: It felt like the longest silence of my entire life. Every morning, our broadcasting club airs a short news program for the entire school. Last Tuesday, I was chosen to read the weather report for the very first time. ① My hands were shaking as the red light on the camera turned on. Halfway through my sentence, I suddenly forgot the next line completely. ② For a few seconds, only silence filled the studio, and I could hear my own heartbeat. ③ My partner Minho, who was sitting beside me, quickly slid the script closer to me. I took a deep breath and calmly continued reading from where I had stopped. ④ Somehow, my voice sounded steadier than I expected, and I finished the report smoothly. After the broadcast ended, several classmates told me they had not even noticed the pause. ⑤ That morning taught me that small mistakes rarely matter as much as we fear.

주어진 문장: This small effort makes the recycling process faster and more efficient for everyone. Dear residents, this notice explains how to use our apartment recycling area correctly. The recycling area, located behind the main entrance, is open every day from six to ten in the evening. ① First, sort your items into the labeled sections for paper, plastic, glass, and cans before dropping them off. ② Boxes should be flattened, and bottles should be emptied, because dirty items are hard to recycle. However, please do not leave large furniture or electronics in this area at any time. ③ Instead, contact the management office to arrange a separate pickup for those bulky items. For example, broken chairs and old refrigerators require a special sticker before collection. ④ In contrast to ordinary trash, recyclable materials must never be mixed together in one bag. ⑤ Following these simple rules keeps our shared space tidy for every family.

문제 10

For her, it was just a small part of a normal morning routine. Yuna bought a disposable coffee cup every morning on her way to school. ① She never thought about where those cups ended up after she threw them away. ② One day, her science teacher showed the class a photo of a beach covered with plastic cups and bottles. Yuna felt shocked because she realized her small daily habit was part of a larger problem. ③ That evening, she found an old tumbler hidden in a kitchen drawer and decided to use it every day. At first, carrying the tumbler felt inconvenient, and she often forgot to bring it to school. ④ However, she kept a reminder note on her bag, which helped her remember it each morning. Within a month, using the tumbler had become as natural as brushing her teeth. ⑤ Her friends noticed the change and asked where she had bought the tumbler.
