영어 모의고사 (자동 편성)

Last Saturday, the temperature outside reached almost thirty-eight degrees, so my family decided to stay indoors for the entire day. At first, I worried that staying inside would be ①boring, but we found several fun activities to enjoy together. In the morning, we visited a nearby indoor climbing gym, where I learned some basic climbing techniques from an ②instructor. After lunch, we went to a small museum that had a special exhibition, and my younger brother was especially ③excited to see the huge whale model hanging from the ceiling. In the afternoon, we played board games at a cafe. By the time we got home, I realized that indoor activities could be just as ④boring as outdoor ones, especially during a ⑤heatwave.

Food poisoning becomes much more common in summer, so it is important to handle food carefully. (A) In addition, keep perishable food in the refrigerator and never leave it out at room temperature for long. (B) First, always wash your hands with soap before you prepare or eat any food. (C) Finally, if you notice symptoms such as stomach pain or vomiting, see a doctor as soon as possible.

Every day, we leave behind marks of the gases that warm our planet, much like footprints left in wet sand. These marks, often called our carbon footprint, come from small choices such as driving, eating, and using electricity. (A) For example, turning off lights when leaving a room reduces the energy that power plants must produce. Walking or biking to school instead of riding in a car also lowers the amount of gas released into the air. (B) In contrast, leaving devices plugged in all night quietly increases our footprint without our notice. Therefore, students who practice these simple habits regularly can shrink their footprint significantly. Small daily choices, repeated over time, become powerful tools for protecting the environment we all share. (C) Many students think that only large factories create these marks, but ordinary habits at home also matter greatly.

Storing summer fruit properly can help you avoid waste and enjoy fresher flavors. (A) Berries, however, should not be washed until just before eating, because moisture encourages mold to grow. (B) Watermelon and melon should be kept in the refrigerator once they are cut, since warm air speeds up spoiling. (C) Bananas, unlike most fruit, are best kept on the counter rather than in the refrigerator.

Heatstroke is a serious risk during long heatwaves, but it can be prevented with a few simple habits. (A) In addition, wearing light and loose clothing allows your body to release heat more easily. (B) First of all, drink plenty of water throughout the day, even when you do not feel thirsty. (C) If you notice warning signs such as dizziness or a very high body temperature, move to a cool place right away.

Water activities are fun, but they require careful preparation to stay safe. (A) In addition, checking the weather and water conditions before you swim is just as important, since sudden storms can create dangerous currents. (B) For example, always swim in areas supervised by a lifeguard, and never swim alone, no matter how confident you are. (C) Finally, wearing a life jacket in open water and taking regular breaks will help you avoid accidents and exhaustion.

주어진 문장: Yet many people write down their goals at the beginning of the year and never check how far they have come. Setting a goal is only the first step; keeping track of progress is just as important. ( ① ) Without regular records, it becomes easy to lose motivation or forget the original purpose of a goal. ( ② ) Keeping a simple log, such as a weekly checklist or a short journal entry, lets a person see clear evidence of improvement over time. ( ③ ) For instance, someone learning guitar might record which songs they practiced each week, and looking back later reveals growth that felt invisible day to day. ( ④ ) Tracking progress also helps identify problems early, since a person can notice when effort stops producing results and adjust the plan before too much time is wasted. ( ⑤ )

For this reason, it is best to plan ahead and pick your favorite show first. This year's Club Festival will be held in the school gym and nearby classrooms next Friday.

Dance and music clubs will perform on the gym stage. ( ② ) Performances start every thirty minutes, so guests should arrive five minutes early. ( ③ ) Because seating is limited, latecomers may need to stand at the back. ( ④ ) Visitors may take photos, but please turn off the camera flash during performances.

We hope everyone enjoys discovering what our clubs have worked on this semester.

My older sister suggested that I make a more realistic plan instead. When summer vacation began, I decided to make a daily schedule so that I would not waste my free time. ( ① ) At first, my plan was too strict, with study sessions packed back to back and almost no breaks. ( ② ) After only three days, I felt exhausted and gave up on the schedule completely. ( ③ ) She recommended setting two or three main goals for each day rather than filling every single hour.

( ⑤ ) Since making these changes, I have been able to follow my schedule much more consistently.

주어진 문장: In the end, these tiny victories combine to create something much bigger than you expected. Many students give up on their New Year goals because the goals feel too big to handle. ( ① ) A more effective approach is to break a large goal into smaller, manageable steps. ( ② ) Instead of focusing on the entire year, try setting a goal for just one week, such as learning twenty new words. ( ③ ) Once you complete that small step, move on to the next one, and gradually build toward the bigger goal.
